I've been wating for this video for a while now!!! thanks!! always good to see your videos!

Best solo overview on KZfaq. Thanks.

This is one of the best, no nonsense solo games overview ever. Funny that I got these games as well. A point on Valley of the Kings: Aside from the solo mode included in the manual there are 3-4 different solo game modes derived for it, and the rules for these fit on a double sided A4 sheet. Bgg. Really should upload a video for it.

Great video look forward to part 2. Raiders of the North Sea is my #2 solo game only beaten by Circadians First Light 🤙

Witty, funny, honest like always. Great job! Comment for a range ;)

Great video really like the volume of games you mentioned and great descriptions and categories , looking more at whether a game can be played solo a lot more when buying a game to try and up my number of game plays.

Definitely a hot topic... especially now. Looking forward to more. :-)

Great list! Excited for part 2! Another portable solo game I think you will like is Palm Island, nice easy set of 18 cards in the palm of your hand. It’s beat your score but it’s a quick crunchy puzzle that plays in the palm of your hand. Cards are great quality, I believe waterproof or resistant. Anyway I love it! You should give it a try.

The Gallerist has a easy brilliant solo mode, quick simple to run.

"Wretched games" -- the perfect description of Lacerda games. :-)

Thank you for the Vlog! Tips, Garphill games recently released the Raiders of the North Sea solo play digital app for both Android and iOS

I like playing Wingspan in solo mode as well as Raiders of the North Sea (with expansions). I bought the solo game trough a French website and it was to my big surprice in French. It was not a problem my label maker could not solve. I like Raiders. Giv the solo mode a try. I buy a lot of games with solo mode as well because sometimes i am the only one who want to play a game. Keep up the good work and stay save.

I’ve been a subscriber for a while now. I really do feel that your videos are great. I like the idea of a video that covers a load of games and that isn’t a top 10 ( I still enjoy top 10s) so thank you for doing this. My particular favourite Solo solo/mode games are Robinson Crusoe, Mage Knight, Friday, Journeys in Middle Earth, Mansions 2nd Ed and the newest addition Wingspan. I do really like Onirim too. I’m looking forward to seeing you do your Shelf review with the Robinson Crusoe games. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Mystery Tales. Great vid. Appreciate your time.

I am not sure if anyone has mentioned this on the comments yet but I was searching for Coffee Roaster on the iOS app store and I found the Raiders of the North Sea solo deck in the app store for $1.99! I put Raiders off my list because you can't obtain the physical solo deck anymore but now you can buy the app deck! I prefer the physical game to the app myself so this would be perfect! Thanks for the solo breakdowns. Solo gaming is my jam. A Feast for Odin and Viticulture w/ Tuscany are two of my favorites.

Hello, Thank you for your speech about Small Islands.

I love Cartographers as solo game!

santa maria and auztralia are my top picks! I used to play legendary as well, but I never enjoyed it as much as I do those two. also, I've recently got La Granja: No siesta... it's fun and quick, but I prefer Welcome To

I think the 3 Thunderworks Games work great as Solo Games (Cartographers, Roll Player, Lock-Up) which cover the small/light, medium, and large game categories. The expansion for Roll Player even adds an end game goal. Sprawlopolis, Sagrada, and One Deck Dungeon also work well (although I have moved to the ODD app). Mage Knight and 7th Continent would be favorite solo games but the time commitment (especially having to do all the setup and upkeep yourself) makes them offputting.

Solo gaming is a topic close to my heart at the moment, given my plan to complete a self-set challenge: "A game a day in May" will see me trying to play at least 31 different games in May, starting tomorrow! Some of the 'biggies' will include Architects of the West Kingdom, Ancient Civilizations of the Inner Sea, a selection of mini-wargames from Decision Games, and Leaving Earth (60-page rulebook and lots of number crunching!); but games like Awkward Guests, Arkham Noir, Marvel Champions, Raxxon and Pandemic: Fall of Rome will also be getting a look-in. The Pandemic: Rome solo mode should transfer over easily enough to Pandemic: Cthulhu, too, so I'm especially looking forward to trying that one out with solo rules...

Another good portable solo game that you never hear about in solo circles is Hardback. It's a clever word game with that plays well solo and multi player. Same size box as Villagers and Burgle Bros. You play against automa Penny Dreadful. What I like is that there is a track of letters that she scores from. The pace forces you to deny her points by figuring out how to make use of higher value letters before she scores them. This assembly line concept mitigates the randomness of card draws. It gives you time to plan out what to do about a card before she scores it. The cards also have effects, so the decision space isn't simply making the largest or most exotic words but coming up with words to utilize the letter cards you want to combo. Very clever game.

::sets up a Lacerda bot for solo play:: Wait...why do I hear boss music?

Fantasy defense is an amazing filler with a story line and unlockables. One of my very best solo

Raiders of the North Sea the Automna Deck you can get as an App. Same as the physical one

Welcome To with the Alexis solo variant is a very good game

Feeling the draw from Hostage Negotiator. Was a bit disappointed to hear that luck features fairly significantly, but it can't be too bad or it wouldn't be rated so highly.

What’s the deal with “coffee roaster”? Looks like it’s out of print. Is it coming back at some point?

There’s a web app that takes away some of the solo maintenance called fullstackcardboard.com that I highly recommend for several popular games.

Which is your favorite of the Oniverse games?

I wonder why most miniature-heavy expensive board game ($100+) don't get mentioned often. I don't believe they're not good enough, but I want to think that most board gamers rather spend the same amount of money to get 5 different games, thus the lower amount of exposure and popularity to these behemoth. I wish people would cover these big box games more often.

I'm really surprised that star realms frontiers didn't make the list as a fun portable solo game

Where's Sprawlopolis for small portable and quick awesomeness?
