When it comes to ancient artifacts in space RPGs, I’ve noticed that many artifacts are incredibly powerful. This list was built to fill the gap of artifacts that can be useful in the right circumstance, but won’t derail your campaign in ways that a more powerful artifact might.

This was an incredibly fun d6 list to create. Please give me feedback if you like it, and what other lists you might want to see!

Looking to help coin a term

Hey everyone - I am looking for some help in coining a term here…ideas welcome!

I want to define the genre of solo RPGs that

- Are quick to learn (1-10 minutes from pickup to play)

- Can be played in 1+ sessions of around 30-45 min

- Often offer strategic or story depth

- Often focused on a very specific theme (building a dungeon, mapping a dwarf mine, telling the story of an old vampire, summoning demons from a deck of cards, etc)

These would be games like Delve, Thousand Year Vampire, Wreck this Deck, Apollo Mine/Dwarf Mine, How to Host a Dungeon, etc.

There are terms that get close or define some of this category of solo RPGs. Journaling games, but not all these games are journaling games. Micro or rules lite RPGs, but many of these games are far from micro or rules lite (30, 40, 50+ page PDFs). I was considering Lunch Break RPGs but after some feedback it doesn’t look like that fits too well either.

Does anyone have any fun ideas for a term for this type of game?

Hey Everyone – I’m James from Paper Dice Games, a super small indie designer and publisher.

I know there are some fans of Dwarf Mine in this subreddit, so I wanted to share that a new space-themed game called Apollo Mine: Join the Race for Space has recently released!

In Apollo Mine you’ll join the space race by drawing a mine on the moon, surviving dangers, and keeping your Apollo Mine alive! Drawing and designing the mine is key to gameplay, and the decisions you make will either spell success or failure to your mission and mine!

Apollo Mine was designed by Rhys Turton, who did a spectacular job of both capturing the feel of Dwarf Mine while at the same time creating a fresh and fun sci fi experience.

Apollo Mine comes with 3 maps to play on and 6 expansions, including the Artifacts and Curses expansion which adds immense replayability, and the Commercial Interests expansion which lets you play two mines at once!

You can check out Apollo Mine: Join the Race for Space at DriveThru here!

Thanks for being a fan of games,

-James
