Haha, Marvel Champions IS DANGEROUS! It's like a symbiot that will take all your money and all your gaming time! But jokes aside, it is a great game. Great list overall aswell. A lot of favorites of mine. Marvel Champions, Lost Ruins of Arnak & Heat are all great both solo and multiplayer. I love Everdell, but not so much in solo.. maybe I should give it another try.

Spirit island digital makes it wayyy more approachable for folks new to it. Played a number of good solo games recently- Harvest and Raising Robots being two standouts. Wingspan is a good prerequisite to Raising Robots but if you’re comfortable with that and looking for a little more of a challenge the Nauvoo games folks developed a VERY approachable rule book for it. Harvest is a great worker placement optimization puzzle with a solid solo mode!

Yes. Sorry. I'm answering your first question. Aside, love most of these games, but didn't realize that these all had a 1 player mode. Appreciate the video. Subbed!

Great list! I’m going to go watch you other videos bc I like games that are 30 mins or less.

Great video! I started off as a solo gamer, but now has a game group. Can you suggest games that have good solo modes, but can also be fun for multiplayer?

Thank you for this list. One of your previous lists helped me decide to get into board games, with solo modes an essential aspect, this past few months. I already have four from your top 10, yes Wingspan has beautiful artwork, but it has given me food for thought about the others in the list. I just need to stop buying and start playing more! Thank you for your hard work in these videos.

Great topic for a solo gamer, keep it up. Thanks!

Thanks for the thorough overview. Loved this game but I got lucky with getting two familiars early on.

Earth is the only game I've played on this list and I do love it. Great video!

Due to my present disability I am playing armchair games and R&W ones are great for this. I totally agree with you with regards to the "Clever series".....the first one is the best . Dungeons,Dice and Danger; My City; Splitter; Cartographers etc. So far I have about 20 different R&W games however, with over 400 board games I miss my dining room table ! Hey Ho, that's life ! Kind regards from the UK.

I have had tons of fun solo-ing Earth. Can't wait for that expansion too!

I definitely agree Mistwood makes Everdell so much better for solo! I almost gave up on it without the expansion until I heard the suggestion to get it. :)

Thank you for the review!

It's an incredible and beautiful game. I have the other two and I found Scorn's Stockade more difficult. I look forward to playing this and completing the trilogy! 🤩

I just recently found out about Bonsai and looked into it. Looks like a great solo game. Will probably pick up the base game and this new expansion. Will check out your Apiary video soon too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. :)

I like slot of what board&dice does but turcis solo automa a.i.s are too much for me.really wanted to love teotiucan but I spent more time remembering the automa

But is it better than prays Caput regni

Thanks for this review! What are you favorite roll/flip and writes? I got curious

Great Video. Picked up the app - I'm going into a no-buy year on games from 1 October as I've bought dozens and not played them, so challenges and logging will help keep things interesting and make me really engage with the collection I've built up.

Thanx for the list! On my list are Phoenix new Horizon and Men-Nefer, check those out!

Great stuff, your #7 game is minecart town. Not minecraft town. I get it, we all would love a great minecraft board game, but it’s not this game.

Nice goals. ISS Vanguard is on my Shelf of Opportunity at the moment. I need to schedule that game out

Stoked for Conservas! Bone Wars is new to me, that sounds so fun, and looks like a great table presence too

“Minecart Town” 5:23 not sure how I missed that!

SETI also has an option to play solo, will def. try that out since i enjoy it in lost ruins of arnak!

Conservas is such a fun game. Sadly, not much replayability after you finish 12 scenarios.

Am I cheating on play count by playing on BGA?

Nice list. I backed Galaxy Postman on gamefound. Havent had the chance to play it solo yet, but it seems easy to manage. Looks great on the table and is as and quick to play. Conservas is great, quick, easy tot get to table and looks fantastic.

We've enjoyed both The Red Cathedral and The White Castle and I play a decent amount of solo games so I've preordered Flatiron. (Plus, I used to live near the actual building itself.) Nice list! You had a couple games on there I hadn't heard much about before.

Thanks so much for your thorough review! Really appreciate it.

This was a surprisingly fun solo game, mostly cause this is one I am okay playing with two characters. I don't have this set; I have the other two. Each set seems to come with a character whose job is like the tank/damage dealer and the other is like the support. It sounds like Ashe is the support character of this set which is why maybe you're having trouble winning with just that one character. I have a similar experience using just Feyn but not Naz in Scorn's Stockade. Anyway, I just wanted to send in my long-winded two cents!

Picked up the app, was looking for a better way to track my plays and this is easily it. Great recommendation!

Great review! Very thorough and balanced. I plan to pick up Windmill Valley once my FLGS gets it in. I'm looking forward to playing it. Have you seen slickerdrips' or Gaming Rules!'s solo playthroughs? Tom lost but Paul won; both games were competitive, though, and at least winnable. Maybe you could pick up some helpful strategies from their playthroughs.

Cool video and some really great games on your 20X5! I successfully completed my first 10X10 last year so I decided to do it again this year. Here's my progress thus far. Like you, I reserve the right to swap out games if I'm not feeling it for a full 10 plays. Or if something comes on my radar and I end up enjoying it immensely. Ezra and Nehemiah - 21 Voidfall - 19 The White Castle - 15 Nucleum - 12 Scholars of the South Tigris - 12 Barcelona - 11 Sankore: The Pride of Mansa Musa - 10 Amritsar: The Golden Temple - 10 Zhanguo: The First Empire - 6 I plan to get 10 plays of Inventors of the South Tigris (just got shipping notification today) and Windmill Valley might end up replacing Zhanguo on the list. Technically, I have more than 10 plays of For Northwood! and more than 20 plays of Draft and Write Records but I wasn't really counting those towards my challenge.

Some great games on your 20x5 list! I'm part of the board game challenge community on BGG. One of my favorite challenges is playing a game each month in each of 12 different categories, for example games with food in them, or games with a location I've visited in real life. It forces me to pay attention to details I might otherwise not notice or think about. 😊 Good luck with completing the 20x5!

Interesting. My play approach is two pronged. I have gamespace :) so I leave a monster up 24/7. Usually 2 months per game on minimum. I also have gamespace on a desk for quick roll and writes, or even a solo Garphill game. I have finished about 40% of ISSV first campaign...so what...15% of the game content? :) I hit 3 of your 20, ISSV, DU:I, and World Wonders. Nice list, thanks.

Hi Jared, thanks for this video. As always, I enjoyed watching it. But this time I was particularly happy because you mentioned this BG app, which is exactly what I was looking for. I just had not realized it existed. I was thinking of setting myself a challenge for the year 2025. I wanted to play all the unplayed games in my shelves at least three times. I was very surprised to hear that other people are doing the same crazy thing 🙂 At 70, I feel I do not have enough time to squander it with random playing. I am sure this app will help me find a structure for myself. Maria from Austria

first list ive ever seen when the box size got smaller and smaller lol

Don't go is my advice

Hey man, I love this game but I taught I was playing it wrong because it’s so hard. Turns out, it’s just a hard game 😂 I still love it, just wanted to help you out with a rule. When you fail a mission you are suppose to turn the mission over and continue with a choice between 2 missions.

Sorry for no sound at the beginning, still learning! Head to the 6:30 minute mark and you'll be able to hear!

So glad you did a playthrough! I have this on order looking forward to playing!

Buttons and Bugs is a solid little game which introduces you slowly into harder and harder scenarios that can mostly be played out in 20 - 30 minutes. The figures are tiny but very well made. Make sure you bend the scenarios deck cards flat though as it is difficult to keep your characters in their hexes otherwise. if you enjoy painting miniatures for Warhammer or any other wargame you'll like the challenge of paining the characters, which makes it feel more finished, in my view.

Thanks for the kind of video i am looking for. Sub as a result. Other Stonemaier's games to recommend for solo ? Scythe perhaps ? Thanks

YOU ARE AWESOME! ❤❤❤

What a great haul! I’m interested in/have preordered 🙃 a number of those :)

Thanks for sharing. Much appreciated.

Great overview! I would very much like to hear more about Kronologic: Paris 1920 and Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto.
