Have you tried Transistor, the second game from the Bastion team? It's another wonderful lightweight game. If you're just looking to listed to table top stories, Adventure Zone is a good podcast. It's a dad and his three adult sons playing a game. If you're looking to play, there's probably a hobby shop near you that makes groups. Or you can get two friends and run one on your own. It's not cheap, but DnDBeyond is a great tool and allows you to share books pretty easily.
I've tried both Transistor and Pyre. Both are wondeful games in their own rights, and I have a special place for Transistor because of its use of programming as a game/world mechanic. They're not explaining it, either: it's just the way of things! Neither compares to Bastion, in my eyes, however. Can't tell you what it is, exactly. Everything's good, but those two have no... it, you know. The it that made Bastion special. Thanks for the advice! I'll check those out.Have you tried Transistor, the second game from the Bastion team?
