Task Force Games is one of the few
game makers from the
golden age of
microgames till still be in existence and selling game (http://www.taskforcegames.com). In the late '70s and early '80s
Task Force Games put out about 28
microgames covering everything from
science fiction,
fantasy, recreations of famous
battles, a host of larger scale
war games and
RPGs.
The two most popular series are
Starfire and
Star Fleet Battles. Both of these have spawned a plethora of expansions, revisions and variants over the last 20 plus years.
Many of their games have strong support for solo play. Games like
Intruder,
Survival and
Barbarian are geared directly to the
solo player while others can easily be adapted to
solo play.
