I'm Mike Shea, your pal from Sly Flourish, here to talk about all things in tabletop role-playing games. The Lazy RPG Talk Show is brought to you by the fine patrons of Sly Flourish. If you want to be a patron of Sly Flourish, you can find a link down in the show notes below.
Patrons of Sly Flourish get access to all kinds of tips, tricks, tools, adventures, and other things to help them run their fantasy role-playing games. They get access to the awesome Lazy DM community over on Discord, and they help me put on shows like this. To the patrons of Sly Flourish, thank you so much for your outstanding support. By far the best deal in tabletop role-playing games is that of humble bundles and bundles of holding. Anytime I find an interesting humble bundle or bundle of holding, I like to bring it up on the show because you get a huge pile of role-playing game products for very little money. Often you're paying like 20 to $25 for products where normally they would be 20, $25 each.
And you usually get them for a dollar or $2 or sometimes less than a dollar. They're really good. And I have talked recently about the Lord of the Rings 5e. I actually have it sitting right here on my desk. I got the Lord of the Rings 5e thing. We talked about it being in D&D Beyond. You heard my recommendation that you probably want to get the physical version. It was on sale. But One Free League, who makes Lord of the Rings for 5e, originally started, well, they picked up The One Ring, which is a dedicated role-playing game. built for lore of the rings called the one ring and it is available in a bundle of holding right now the threshold price to pick up everything is 18 bucks so for 18 bucks you get the one ring core book the one ring lore master screen strider mode that's the starter collection and you get the ruins of the lost realm and the lands from the lone tales from the lone lands
Each of these are worth, you know, a fair bit of money and you're getting them for a very low price. If you just want the core book, you don't even have to pay the threshold. You can instead pay eight bucks and get the one ring RPG. I went ahead and paid the full amount of the 1868 to get the entire set. So I haven't really dug into it yet, but I've heard very good things about the One Ring and it looks really neat. That's cool. So while our APR says Strider mode is actually the solo play. So if you want a way to play solo and Sean Tompkin is the creator of Iron Sworn, which is a fantastic solo RPG. So the idea of can you play the One Ring by yourself? The answer is yes. And there's a 28 page guide to do so. So that could be a fun way. I really think that solo RPG play and I might try it out with this because it'd be really kind of fun to try out a new system and see it.
And one thing about solo RPGs, if you have the time and really maybe just get off social media for a while and instead go play a game, that you can really stretch your DM muscles, your GMing muscles, your ability to improvise, your ability to kind of shape stories from random events gets way better when you play solo RPGs. You start to see what it's like to really fall into the story that you've got going on in your head. And that actually can help you when you're running games for you and your friends at the table. So I highly recommend solo RPGs as really good cross-training for GMs to stretch your improvisational muscles.
