# Borne by Bright Not Blood - Solo Dungeoning tags: #thoughts #game/rpg/brightborne ![[Brightborne (cover).jpg|200]] You may have noticed that I really love solo and co-op game designs. While fantasy isn't my particular inclination, when you've done one thing I really like, I'll generally pop for more. Candlenaut made **[[Entity]]**. And now, **[[Brightborne]]**.  I think this video is something that all game designers should look at, if only because despite the lack of production value and despite the lack of polish, it shows off the game and the thinking behind it, which is far more important. It's like sitting down with the designer and having him tell you what he did and why he did it. I really like the fact that he decided to go with a larger font and a smaller physical format than a full page because, like him, I'm getting to that age myself, for good or ill. Plus, a layout that breathes just works better. If you are in the market for or curious about solo dungeon diving using cards as a randomizer, maybe this is a good time to check out **Brightborne**. It's cheap on DriveThruRPG, which is the second best price. - https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/520488/brightborne
