I've just bought the 5e beginner's box (German edition). Actually, I wanted to buy the Dark Eye beginner's box, knowing that there were a couple solo adventures (actually 5 small ones IIRC) in the box which introduce the basic rules and classes each.

However, neither shop I visited had that on stock, and unlike Dark Eye in the 90s, I'd never played D&D except the Computer games, so... I gave it a shot.

I assumed the adventure in the D&D beginner's box would be of a similar ilk, since it's a beginner's box, but it's one for the DM and for a party already.

- Are there any solo adventures for D&D, preferably low-level?
- Is there a way to play the box adventure solo (maybe somebody has experience with converting such?)

inb4 anybody says that playing D&D solo would be silly. The Dark Eye has/had actually a couple decent solo adventures, and I want to learn the thing first before trying to find a group to play with.. 😄

As in products?

These look neat to me, but I have no experience with them, or the website.  They do seem to also ship them as hardcover books, rather than just PDFs, so that might be a good indicator.

I played solo DnD with one person for years so it might be weird but valid.

I play Shadowrun solo. I use Gemini to do the GMing for me.
