Solo Adventures / Co-OP

Hi New to Roll20 and its looks very good but I wonder if there is a possibility to play a game without a dedicated DM. Something like Solo Adventures, two PC uncovering a story. Something like this persons does here <a href="http://dnd.chromesphere.com/How_to_play.html" rel="nofollow">http://dnd.chromesphere.com/How_to_play.html</a> &nbsp; The players are given options on what to do and they choose and do the necessary to carry on. My wife and me would love to get into Dungeon and Dragons but getting a third person or matching time would really be a drawback if not a totally no-go. We have played Descent Road to Legend where an app act as a DM. Its great just little limited hence why I am wondering why doesnt DnD have something similar. I am sure there must be more than just 2 people out there that would love to play some DnD as a duo. Don't even know hat to call it. Solo Adventures seems to be just 1 player with 1 DM. &nbsp;I read about Mythic Game Master Emulator but its seems very limited. And makes me wonder haven't people made campaigns here that resemble that but in a better "engine", I am sure there must be a good market for that...

Another name or term for that kind of gameplay is GM-less. &nbsp;GMless gaming. If you search the internet for that term you can find a lot of game systems that are made for that (not D&D necessarily, but other game titles that are made to play as GMless RPG). Roll20 itself is system agnostic, meaning you can play almost any game on Roll20 that can be played at a home tabletop. Whichever GMless RPG you get into, Roll20 has the dice, chat room, blank whiteboard page for drawing or maps or pictures, and many other features to support whatever the game system requires. I hope this helps you find ways to get your duo game going!
I see well good to know, thanks. I guess I was hoping to see a straight of the gate solution/suggestion. Learn the rules, make your characters then click here to start the story. And follow the text boxes clicking on a decision then Roll20 will give the answer (DM ruling) and so on. But it seems like there is some assembly required for such thing.&nbsp;

Roll20 is your dining room table.&nbsp; Anything you can do at the table, you can likely do here... but it does require you to do the drawing and dice rolling and searching for players/whatever yourself.
