For the past few days I have soloed my way through Cards & Catacombs, a dungeon crawl game (which is free/pay what you want on DriveThruRPG). It uses a deck of cards, so you will not need your dice. The first time I played this I used a cleric, archer, thief, and mage. We encountered four demons and it was a bloody mess. Three of my characters died and my mage had one hit point left. The devil that was attacking him also had one hit point left. I was biting my nails and then my mage was killed. Bummer. The second time I used it I played one character, a fighter. I also added some cards from the Dungeoneer card game Tomb of the Lich Lord (Atlas-games). This worked out much better. He got into a fight with a poltergeist and he defeated it. For loot, he found 16 gold pieces, a back pack, and a teleport staff (four uses). He was anxious to get back to town and spend his gold, so he used his magic staff. Great fun. Give this a try.
