City Fantasy in Chaos Solo Engine
Cities in Fantasy are places of disease and corruption, wealth and opportunity, poverty and mixing cultures. Dice in the taverns with unsavoury sorts, explore the sewers, dine with high society or mingle with regular folk trying to make it day to day.
Chaos Solo Engine aims to act as a companion to the player(s) when playing solo. Answering questions, helping with ideas, structuring scenes, and guiding ongoing play.
The upcoming Chaos Solo Engine -Complete has an array of tables for various fantasy themes, including settings of City, Dungeon, Hinterlands, Otherworld, Sea and Wilderness.
There is also a pay-what-you-want pdf of core tables in on Drive Thru RPG as Chaos Solo Engine - Fantasy Basic.
