Always Player One: A Solo Board Gaming Podcast

Norm & Scruffy Gamer

Always Player One is a Podcast about solo board games and what we think makes them interesting.

  • Wonderful thoughtful content

    This is a show about two newbies to solo tabletop gaming exploring various titles and gaming concepts. Very enjoyable to listen to and follow their progress. It’s a growing niche and I can’t think of two better hosts in this genre. The tone they set in the show is very open minded and polite.

    I have listened to Always Player One from the start and have enjoyed every episode. Scruffy and Norm have great chemistry and passion for the hobby in a way that is infectious. One of my favourite podcasts.

  • Great hosts and a wonderful show

    Norm and Scruffy are open-minded gamers with a relatable friendship. I’ve enjoyed listening to their show these months, and based on their excitement I’ve even just downloaded the materials for my first ever solo rpg experience. Thanks for the content! You get me through 13 hour weekly commute (with the help of some other podcasters, of course). I guess this became a DM instead of a review. Best wishes in all things. -Elliott
