i liked the solo playthrough. very clear and precise. i do play this game solo as well. very nice game. keeping with the nature theme, have you played wingspan or canopy solo? wingspan solo is fun. i have yet to play canopy solo. some other nature themed games I play are Spring Meadow, good tile placement game.
i am going to watch your solo playthroughs of Birdwatcher and Keystone. 2 games i have but have not played yet. thank you. keep up the great work!

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the playthrough! 🙂
It's been a while since I played Wingspan solo, but I do enjoy it - I should get it out again soon. I have recently played Canopy solo, and very much enjoy it. I'll be doing a playthrough for both of these games in the not-too-distant future.
