  • The best one

    I really like this podcast. There are several similar solo play podcasts that tie narrative with solo play to create an audio drama. Some are good some aren’t, but this one is great. The narrator is so well spoken and consistent. The voice acting is entertaining and makes it easy to listen to. The story is compelling. I really enjoy this one.

  • Absolutely Fantastic

    Legend of the Bones is a masterful example of the solo play, audio drama genre. Not only are the narratives well woven and engaging, but the audio quality and voice acting are always of the highest caliber.

  • Legend of the Bones used classic D&D to tell a powerful dark fantasy story that weaves ancient and Medieval British Culture and modern pulp into a rich and evocative whole. The world building is second to none, the prose lush, and the narration a pleasure to listen to. It has been in my top 5 favorite podcasts since it launched!
