@@aorakis5795 I only have around 20 games, so that's not my problem. My problem is that I can't get four or five people together at one time for anything where I live. I do see a lot of gamers on youtube with shelves full of games and I don't understand that at all. I saw a guy on Reddit say he kickstarted over 75 games. 75! That's just the ones he backed on kickstarter, too! That's crazy.
Mage Knight is my favorite game all time. Solo or otherwise. Excellent list! My other favorite is Too Many Bones, but that might not be everyone’s cup of tea.
Thanks for this vid…. I was looking for a solo-game and found it !!! And didn’t know that Final Girl existed…. Good thing it is 😁 after this vid watched many other playthrough and decided to buy the series 1. I love it!! 👍😁
From that list; Spirit Island would be my go to. Playing "true solo" (1 spirit) is ok but the joy is playing two different spirits to co-operatively destroy the invaders. The different combinations of spirits make the game so incredibly replayable as each combo plays so differently.
If you like Arkham Horror, you might like the Lord of the Rings Lcg also made by Fantasy Flight Games. It has a lot of the same mechanics but gives a very different experience. I personally much prefer the Lord of the Rings Lcg over Arkham Horror. Too much is determined by the chaos bag and it sucks investing cards into boosting your stat for a skill check only to get an automatic lose or just enough that you fail the test, or you invest a lot to make sure you pass unless you get an automatic fail and you get a +0 or +1. As for being a money sink, yes it is, but you also get a lot of content. It's a money sink because there's a lot more content. You can buy a bunch of different games or buy a bunch of one game such as Arkham Horror. It's the same either way except you have less games you have to learn and rules to remember for different games but you have less variety. But if you have a big collection, the less variety is not a problem.
subscribed and you have a beautiful London voice. Good to see spirit island and mage knight (cause they are in my collection). There are many others and I played spirit island with real player off line and hope people all find their mates but solo is also great
For Final Girl, I heard the summer camp one is a good one to start with for that series. Would you agree it’s a little less complicated than the others?
Yes! If you want to try Final Girl, definitely get Camp Happy Trails. It's the only set without extra rules for the location or killer, so you just get to play with the core Final Girl rules. It's also still a challenging experience, but with the least amount of extra rules overhead. I highly recommend it.
I’ve really enjoyed playing Cascadia both multiplayer and solo. Especially since it has a suggested difficulty roadmap in the game booklet so you always have a next, more difficult challenge to work towards. It’s easy to learn and plays pretty quickly (depending on how long the other players take) and (best of all for my ADHD brain) it is almost entirely a tactical game (you can’t really plan too far ahead since your options for adding tiles are generally completely different by the time your turn comes back around), and everything is completely open for everyone to see (so no worries if you have a very limited working memory like me). ^^b Also, even though it is a competitive game, it’s not really one that encourages sabotage, and it’s usually almost impossible to tell who’s winning until the very end, so everyone still tends to like each other even after a difficult game. ;;>.
How do you play Mage Knight in 150 minutes? I moved beyond the starter tutorial scenario once to a full scenario, and it took me 9 full hours solo lol.
Good solo or solitaire games: Maquis Undaunted Series Shadows of Brimstone Series Great Western Trail Series Various Submarine Series (Hunters..) Various Leader Series (Aircraft) Revolution Road ((1775) Sniper Elite the Board game Soldiers in Postmen’s Uniforms Castle Itter Keep Up Fire (Boxer Rebellion) Heroes of Series Dawn of Empire(1898) One Deck Dungeon Nemo’s War Dungeons of Doria Defending America (from the German Amerika bomber) Call to Adventure Series Regards
I wouldn't go anywhere near Spirit Island or Mythwind if you want them for solo play, they are very much meant as multiplayer games but have a solo variant added in but not really the way it should be played to get a good experience. Hundreds of other solo games I would put before these two. Witchcraft and Final Girl are good choices.
I do disagree on this. I think it’s great solo. It is however long and 90-120mins for me would be a dream. Can easily go 180 mins playing two handed solo so if you are doing this perhaps give some time. Takes some playing and familiarity to get that time down much. Still excellent though
Have you played a game called Aeon's End? I usually don't have a strong opinion on how good a game is, but it's got to be hands down the best card game I've ever played! Best, not favorite. It's so unique and does so many things right that makes it easier for players and give a better experience, it has tons of options to make the game harder or easier and change how you play the game which adds a ton of replay value! Where can I find Witchcraft? That one sounds interesting! It's not in stock in the usual places I get my games, and Amazon doesn't even appear to have it on the website.
in theory i like the idea of solo board gaming... in practice i often feel like it's not worth the set-up and tear down just for myself... and i just play a video game instead... or a digital version of the board game, lol.
Hi there, lovely pick But... Where are... Aeon's end / Astro knights Bullet Warp's edge Sprawpolis / Naturopolis Planet unknown Street Masters Welcome to the moon (and I'm not speaking about any of the 3 FFG LCGs games) (as they are much more expansive :p ) ? :) _ On the other hand -Final girl : I haven't found it quite balanced or "even" at all! You will die a lot more than survive this game with those dice rolls :D (which is thematically good) (but after experiencing a 15 blanks rolls in a row... I had to get rid of it :D ) -Mage knight : when too much is too much (rules and micro rules to get funny anymore) (for my brain anyway:p) -spirit island : if you like the game, and get slowly annoyed by it, grab the branch and claws expansion! -witchcraft : I much prefer resistance theme and graphics. (but I'm just boy i guess :D)
i studied english at an english school in Peru and i always thought english should sound like a "bottel of woter" and "would you like some tea?" I remember my scottish teacher trembling from drinfking too much coffee and smoking too much teaching us and we found it almost non understandable. Listening to Maddie bring back the memories...
I watch content from many boardgame and RPG channels and enjoy their content a lot, but never have I seen a channel this obviously biased - towards money. Things already appeared very fishy with some games in past months, but don't tell me you weren't paid a handsome amount of money for putting Mythwind in the No. 1 spot during their Kickstarter. At least be open about it! This is not how other reviewers, paid or unpaid, operate. Not a single one I'm aware of. This is disgusting.
I find it weird that I've never heard of this channel before. The RUclips algorithm took long enough to get us matched up.
Yeah good point. Same here
This is the 999th dicebreaker video. Next one will be the 1000th so congrats for that achievement.
Thanks so much for the kind words about Witchcraft!
Oh, this is great. I was just thinking about how none of my friends like me and I'm going to be alone forever.
Welcome to the club, you'll fit right in. 😎 lol
I’ll be your friend as long as you don’t talk or look at me 😁
It gets better, I started out with solo games but eventually ppl wanted to play with me too
@@izkariot That is the right attitude ! When we acquire interests, it is something to share, offering possibilities.
I have a invisible outfit so I can't be seen.
Marvel Champions and Under Falling Skies have still been my favorites so far!
Love to see mage knight being on almost every solo game list, year after year. Not easy to dethrone it.
It’s just the best 😊
I've bought six games in the last two months and I've only gotten to play one of them.
I made a french video on the subject...
"what if we had too many boardgames in our collection?" :)

Final Girl is a really cool idea and Spirit Island looks fun. Sometimes I play Castle Panic solo. It can be pretty fun.
In my opinion Spirit Island is the best. Great collaborative game, but you can play solo as well, better controlling 2 spirits in game. 😊
100% agree with you
@@vinicius02able Totally agree.
Mythwind and Three Sisters are calling my name

@@SanderPastoor thank you! I’m excited to run it :)
Yes! Definitely the best one to start!
Nice to see a run down but not enough footage of the actual games.
Does anyone know how to get their hands on Witchcraft! in the US? I’m not sure if it’s just sold out everywhere or it’s not being produced yet.
It was funded on GameFound, so your best bet would be Ebay or other 3rd party sellers.
Great list!
I’m just wondering when is Conservas coming out to retail 🤔
This is great, as I have no friends
Solo gamers always have each other!

Yeah Spirit Island is so bad solo it was #1 in boardgamegeek’s solo games list of 2023
@@Filthyanimal9 LOL!
I think many play it two-handed though.
Spirit Island solo is my favourite way to play that game. The satisfaction at the end of victorious play is REAL.

"Three Sisters" looks lika a nice relaxing game- I'll have to check it out when I get a chance:)
just what I was loking for!
Aaah, solo board game, soup for one, wine for two.
Yo why no mention of Marvel Champions? Please support/promote FFG so they can finance Star Wars Unlimited for decades XD
😂 Love this. As an MTG player I need to try Star Wars Unlimited.

Many board games offer a mental challenge that video games can’t replicate so they have their place
1 player games I think now is just as important as group games even more so.
And which of these are the smallest ones I can take everywhere?
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
Set a Watch hope there will be another Video in which Wheels gets crushed...again.
...was he crushed? He seems to be largely intact.

Mythwind does appear to be a great game, though. But don't take it from Dicebreaker.
That's actually illegal to do ahaha but for your consideration in case you're genuinely worried www.dicebreaker.com/editorial-policy xoxox
I got distracted by the beautiful presenter and missed the games.
