Great vid! Just bought the game because of it, lol Love the idea of SO many different settings, using the same base rules!

[@TheDungeonDive]

Hahaha. Once again. I’ve had this all printed out and ready to go, but you beat me to it. Every. Single. Time. Lol. Now I gotta wait 6 months so it doesn’t look like I’m copying you. :) Cool little system. I love all the setting / scenarios. It’s really good to be used as warm up exercises to learn how to play in genres outside of your comfort zone.

[@GeekGamers01]

Oh, Daniel, I feel your pain! I've got at least two things waiting their turn so it doesn't look like I'm copying YOU. :)

[@TheDungeonDive]

@@GeekGamers01 Haha. Like 2 weeks ago I said to myself "I should make my video on Tricube Tales before GG does." Well, now they'll get a little bump from you, and then from the DD in a few months. :)

[@mickeymyers13]

Dungeon Dive Daniel you are freakin awesome, thank you for your work 🙏🏼

[@DjigitDaniel]

I've been swearing by this game for several years now! LOL Welcome aboard.

I see where you’re coming from about the name generator, but as someone who just started solo role playing, having some names for npcs is *super* helpful. Of course I could just search up a name generator online, but I think maybe names can be more challenging to come up with than an npc’s role in the world. I have found myself walking into an established and I want to talk to the owner *consults name generator* and have a conversation with Fei Jensen, the innkeeper. Now maybe if they had included that other info as well, that’d be slick too! I appreciate your content, you helped me get going in solo rp-ing

[@zadmar]

Awesome review, thank you! You did a great job of explaining the rules and showcasing the micro-settings, and it was interesting to see what sort of adventures you came up with for "Deep Trouble in Oldport Bay" and "Minerunners."

[@GeekGamers01]

Thanks for making such a great resource for soloists.

[@trickstur5994]

Wow, very timely. I started my very first solo game last night and I'm testing out tricube tales as my first rubric.

[@cybermerlyn2]

Tricube Tales is a great game, I enjoy all the mini-setting two page sheets.

[@johnsalvage5740]

Very interesting as usual. Must try and get my grandchildren interested in rpgs instead of being glued to either the tv or phones.

[@lone_adventurer]

Well this looks amazing! What a mind-bogglingly huge amount of resources. Looks like the perfect way to get into more free-form solo gaming and it's taking all my willpower not to just buy it immediately!

[@GeekGamers01]

The range of genres is amazing and each card does a lot with a little space to bring you into a totally different story. It's quite well done.

[@ARKavli]

And it is published under a CC license and has a lot of 3rd party support... it's one of my favorites. There are a couple of larger setting books, too. I have used it for a Warrior Cats campaign with my 10-year old daughter. She knew all the lore, I just ran the game. :)

[@pitac8340]

One of my favorites 😮

[@ErinsAaron]

Thank you for your helpful and informative videos

[@boardgameswiththomas]

This seems super neat! I really like the wide variety of scenario types. I'll definitely have to check this out sometime soon. Thanks for covering this!

[@toddmen8302]

This is a great little system. Love the portability for on the go gaming. My only "critique" is that when I heard the title, my brain thought/hoped this would be a d4 system. I'll be adapting it to that for personal use, but will also enjoy playing the original system. Edit: I had a new thought this morning. Originally I was just going to use d4s instead of d6s. But now I'm going to use the die type that mataches the difficulty. So if the challenge difficulty is 8, I'll use d8s. I still love the original d6 system for portability though,

[@vincentesposito4843]

This looks awesome! I was looking for a system to start with (I’m a complete newbie) and this seemed cool! The thing is coming from video games is the HP and Damage systems for most games in TT would take forEVER- which is why this is appealing to me. I saw some of your scarlet heroes videos and I think that system is cool but the combat is too slow. Was thinking if ICRPG as well. Do you think this is the best system for starting out as a a newbie and as a GM for newbies? I’m in my 30s and a parent I don’t have the time to learn all the systems. I want a generic one I can port to different settings if I need to :)

[@GeekGamers01]

If you are starting out as a newbie GM I would look at Knave or ShadowDark. I do like ICRPG as well and have done a video on that system. It is also a great place to start. Depends if you want a d20 based system or not, which might not matter or might matter depending on your players.

[@mickeymyers13]

Hi, Deborah, you are absolutely amazing. Your kids are lucky, very fortunate. Thank you for your work, thank you for being an amazing person.

[@GeekGamers01]

Thanks for the kind words.

[@jrthepinwitch1911]

Lots of good stuff, thanks for sharing.

[@marccaron6008]

This is fantastic!

[@mikestory2272]

I still have my kid doing most of the math. I introduced my son to 5e about 8 months ago when he was 7. This looks fun and simpler. The part my son didn't like was how long character creation was.

[@GeekGamers01]

This would be great for a 7 year old in a guided story. My kids learned that they wouldn’t get to apply damage (in whatever game it was) unless they did the math to figure out the total damage. That was good incentive!

[@marccaron6008]

@@GeekGamers01 Very cool parenting. I did get better at math after learning to play Basic D&D.

[@mwevanne]

muito interessante! - very interesting!

[@thepardoner2059]

Intriguing system. Can hard copies of the scenario sheets be purchased? Or are they available as PDFs only?

[@GeekGamers01]

Follow the link I provide to get details on purchase/format. They are not all the same.

[@thepardoner2059]

@@GeekGamers01 Perhaps I wasn't clear. Are the scenario sheets you displayed printouts?

[@GeekGamers01]

@@thepardoner2059 Um... not sure I am now understanding you. Yes, I had printouts. I don't know whether printouts can be purchased ready-made or you would need to do that yourself. Check the actual site for that answer.

[@zadmar]

@@thepardoner2059 the scenario sheets are printed on 10"x8" cards, and they'll be available as a DTRPG print-on-demand option later this month

[@thepardoner2059]

@@zadmar Thank you, Richard. Much appreciated!

[@StefDev123]

How did you get the booklet, solo sheets, and card deck printed? I can only see an option on drive thru for the booklet itself?

[@goldengriffon]

Huh. Those dice look like the ones I included in the Dungeon Romp game I put out a few years back. I wonder...

[@GeekGamers01]

You mean the d6s? Those are generic dice…not from your game…I’ve got a bucketful of ‘em…

[@mavfan21]

This Looks like a tight little system. Do you think you could keep it interesting over time, like a campaign? I’d there enough there to add some character growth and make diverse enemies?

[@GeekGamers01]

I think it works best as one shots tho I believe there is the suggestion of ways to do character advancement

[@trickstur5994]

@@GeekGamers01 what do you think would work for a campaign? Anything just a scootch more complex and more fitting?

[@GeekGamers01]

Really would depend on what you wanted a campaign to track. Hard to answer the question more specifically without having a sense of what you are really looking for. Baseline is something that has character progression of course-all the way up to systems for world building and change over time

[@malchitos]

The mechanics remind me of tiny d6 a little. Bet it would work well with it.

[@GeekGamers01]

Agree

[@christinebogart1218]

Cool game, and great video. You cost me $$$ every time I watch your videos!! LOL I don't mind, it gives me something to do in retirement. Oh, and llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is a real village in Wales!!!!!
