Thanks for clarifying that. Yeah it’s massive. There are so many solo games in it too.
There are a lot of $20-30 games in there that I’ve had my eye on for while. Rebel Scum, This Mortal Coil, Eco-Mofos. Just really good stuff.
And it’s a great cause. I’m nowhere Minnesota but anything we can do to stop these bastards, even if it’s buying and playing games, is a good start.
Vantage is a great solo card game but it’s a bit expensive at $90. I really like it. Great game play loop and a fun way to use your cards while exploring. There’s also one deck dungeon for a lot cheaper. It’s not my favorite, but I play it in hotel rooms a lot because I can pack it easily.
This is a low barrier to entry solo game that is 1) free, and 2) it’ll let you know if you like this style of gaming.

For solo RPGs, I have gotten a lot out of using the Mythic Game Master Emulator with all sorts of games. I’m working on Coriolus right now, but I have had a lot of fun with simpler fantasy games like Knave and Maze Rats.
Starforged is great, but i got that on sale.
This is great for solo gaming:

If you’re willing to spend $10, itch.io has an amazing bundle on right now with a bunch of solo games:
Yes. My wife is a paramedic. I’ve been in emergency services for 12 years. We go to couples therapy to help keep the stress from work infecting our relationship.
Therapy is generally a good thing, but it’s gotta be her decision too. You can’t force therapy on someone.
People in the ER see and experience stuff every day that humans are not supposed to see with any regularity. I highly suggest therapy for anyone, especially those of us in emergency services.
