      Thanks man! I found some interesting games here to look out for :)
      My personal favorite is Arkham horror lcg which is fantastic solo and coop ^^

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      Such a great game! Only gets better with time as well :)

  • @Visage13
    @Visage13 5 лет назад +1

    For a long time I haven't really been keen on the idea of apps with board games, but I recently picked up a copy of Mansions of Madness 2e on sale. I couldn't agree more with your comments on giving it a shot. It's changed my perspective on using an app with a game. I'm really glad I gave it a shot and I'm looking forward to picking up more content for it in the future.

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      It’s very well ingrained without taking the focus away from the game on the table for anymore than necessary. I believe it enhances the experience big time! Very cool to hear it felt the same for you!

  • @hermannluttmann1637
    @hermannluttmann1637 5 лет назад +1

    Thanks for including Dawn of the Zeds, Adam! I really appreciate it - glad you enjoyed the game.

    @kennethpaschall4801 5 лет назад +1

    Great list Adam. Love both Mansions of Madness and Arkham Horror LCG. Haven't made the jump into Zombicide, though it does have my interest.

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      Those are two of the best! Still play them heavily to this day!

  • @antoyal
    @antoyal 5 лет назад +5

    Oh man, now you've intrigued me about Lifeform and Nemesis. 🤓
    I can definitely vouch for *KD:M,* *Darkest* *Night,* and *Dawn* *of* *the* *Zeds* though. Those are fantastic solo games!

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад +1

      Happy to hear you found a couple that interest you! Good picks too!

    • @alessandromassi3659
      @alessandromassi3659 5 лет назад +2

      I have both. Too bad no one want to play LIFEFORM so I've only played solo and I have to say that the game is too hard. It's almost impossible to beat, and that's too bad because it really recreate the atmosphere of the first Alien movie. Nemesis on the other hand is pretty pretty good. One of my favorite.

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      Alessandro Massi Interestinf to hear that. I also concur that Nemesis is my pick of the two.

  • @sk-gr3nu
    @sk-gr3nu 5 лет назад +1

    Deep madness is fantastic, glad to see it in your list

      Big fan of that one! Can’t wait for the new content too. :)

  • @newbreedcreator
    @newbreedcreator 5 лет назад +2

    A few games that I think are worth mentioning: Village Attacks (currently has an expansion on Kickstarter,) The Walking Dead: No Sanctuary, and Camp Grizzly. Those are just off the top of my head. I had some others in mind, but they made appearances on the list. This was a good list overall.

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад +1

      Awesome to see some of your favs! Glad you enjoyed it :)

  • @LearnToPlaythrough
    @LearnToPlaythrough 5 лет назад +1

    Excellent list to look into for games I do not have yet.
    A Touch of Evil, Betrayal at House on the Hill, Coma Ward, Dark Darker Darkest, Lobotomy, Pandemonium, Level 7 (Escape), and Virus are some great ones to add to your list (future list).
    Though I do not have Mansions of Madness 2nd edition - this may sound silly, but I do love playing Mansions of Madness 1st edition solo - thematically indepth.
    Keep on Rolling Solo!!!
    Cheers

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      Hey! Thanks so much for checking out the vid. If you enjoy the 1st edition you’ll likely enjoy the second! Great suggestions on games by the way. People will find that helpful. Cheers!

  • @brandongagnon
    @brandongagnon 5 лет назад +2

    I'm dying to play Mansions of Madness Second Edition! First Edition was my intro into boardgames in my adult life and I love it! I haven't played it in a while since it's not soloable and thats what I mainly do lately. So the aspect of playing the Second Edition solo sounds fun. I also don't mind the app integration. I have Journeys into Middle Earth and I think it's a fun mechanic and way to tell the story.
    Deep Madness is another one I am intrigued by. I am a late backer for that one so I am just waiting for that one to arrive :)
    I can confirm what you say about Nemesis. That is one of my favorites currently. It just bleeds theme and really gives you that nervous feeling as you creep though the ship not knowing what is going to pop out at you.
    Great List! Thanks for sharing.

    • @RollingSolo

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      I need to get my hands on it and give it a deeper go. I enjoyed the time I spent with it thought but it’s easily far less than the rest for me. Thanks for watching! :)

  • @Tombonzo
    @Tombonzo 5 лет назад +2

    Mansions of Madness 2 edition , still my favorite game and very high on immersion!! I also play Elder sign and like it a lot. Agree not very immersive, there. Also the digital versions make it so much easier to play (Solo). If I would play with others, I’d break out the board game. Here’s something funny.... the digital version of Elder sign’s music is the same as Mansions of Madness background music! I like it but I do wish they had two separate sound tracks!!
    I’ll admit, I never heard of deep madness, and now I’m intrigued! Nice selection here, thanks!!

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад +1

      I have played Elder Sign digital! I enjoy that from time to time. Deep Madness is one I’d recommend doing som research on. Got a playthrough as well!

  • @ryanheckel37
    @ryanheckel37 5 лет назад +1

    My favorite solo horror game are Horrified, bloody inn, A touch of Evil, Xenoshyft, Escape Tales the awakening, Robinson Crusoe Mystery Tales expansion, Dark Gothic card game, and Arkham Horror LCG,

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      That’s a great pile of horror. Robinson Crusoe is a brutal one! Great choices :)

  • @denu22
    @denu22 5 лет назад +4

    Sub Terra is great and the expansions even add more greatness (I'm told). I haven't played the expansions yet.

    • @RollingSolo
      @RollingSolo  5 лет назад

      That's one I have heard of but never tried!

  • @arcubal
    @arcubal 5 лет назад +1

    Fun list! Thanks for that. I was kinda surprised to hear you say 'Deep Madness' having a lot of scenario variety - I dropped my pledge for this game cuz I got the impression that the game had almost no story whatsoever and that each game basically was just a randomly generated tactical puzzle...The same could be said for Shadows of Brimstone if not for Hexcrawl. I still have to try it, but you've repeated what others have said: it's essential in campaigning this game.
    My favorite entry must definitely be Folklore: the Affliction, simply because it's the most story-heavy RPG-like exploration game - one that allowed me finally stop getting miniature-heavy games and be content with standees :-)
    I also like how FFG's Arkham Files is just a smorgasbord of horror-themed mechanics. Pick any one and you can play Lovecraftian horror - personally, I think Mansions of Madness and Arkham Horror:TCG are the best combo to have - the latter because of the many scenarios that are deeply immersive, the former cuz you get to use the miniatures and tiles with the card game to 'bling' your gameplay out and bring it to life...

    • @RollingSolo

    Love your channel, although you've forced the wallet open several times. Haven't played to many from this list, but have to say....Dawn of the Zeds is AMAZING!!! Thanks again for the videos, you are typically the first one I go to when looking into new games.

    • @RollingSolo

    Deep Madness sits atop my most coveted list :) Sadly pretty difficult to obtain now (in Australia) unless mega-bucks are dropped.

    Cthulhu Death May Die
    Nemesis
    Arkaham Horrow LCG
    Mansions of Madness
    Machina Arcana
    Tannhauser
    The Night Cage

    Watching this while unboxing my Nemesis all-in (finally! Ordered One Wave shipment 😄) Another great horror game, especially when plaid using the official soundtrack is The Awful Orphanage using the vers. 2.0 rules. Coming out next year I’m looking forward to Tales of Evil, which I kickstarted and AV Ghost, which I dropped my pledge for but am keen to hear the verdict on as it looked promising with some great artwork and 3D walls.
