I would like get a couple of games on your list, however, I live in Canary Islands and I worry how language dependent would, for example, Viticulture and the Lost Ruins of Arnak be. So many people say how much they enjoy these games. It’s an interesting list, especially as some I have but never played solo, e.g, pandemic and Wingspan. Parks and CofB are both superb solo games. Going to watch your other video, Part 1. After it I will pass on my solo favourites. Good luck… from a new subscriber

Thank you for this list! I’ve loved board games for years, but my cousins have all grown up and we’ve all moved so it’s hard to get my gaming group together. I found solo gaming recently, and it has been so awesome to be able to play consistently again! I’ve added 4 of the ones from your list to my shopping list. Thanks again!

I recently learned about noble knights(NK). Were all the games purchases used or were some new? Have you sold games to NK before?
@allaboutfunandgames4 ай бұрын
They are a great company. I think these purchases were all used - but 'Mint, Near Mint, or Excellent'. I've ordered from them many times in the past and never had an issue with any games. Often times you can get new games, and out of print games, there as well. I have not sold any games to them, but then I have a difficult time selling any games to anyone! ha! I confess. I'm a hoarder of board games.... I love them... eventually though... I will have to sell some, and most likely will try out NK.
@donnakeferlis16494 ай бұрын
Noble Knight is awesome! What they sell (honest about the condition), how they buy (they pay for shipping!), and the sheer volume and variety of games & gaming products. Their website is great; I also live close enough to visit the brick and mortar (I could spend a whole day in there!)

Oh how I love Uwe games!!! Specifically Caverna AND Agricola. I don't shoot for 100+, it's strictly a BYOS affair for me. The room tiles (cards w/Agricola) give me options each game that make my head spin! Trying out a different combo each time makes for incredible replayability. BTW - Fields of Arle is my absolute favorite Uwe.
@b.21945 ай бұрын
I think it is quite similar to Agricola, designed by Uwe Rosenberg as well. Agricola has a very good solo mode, but it is the most frustrating game I have ever played and - to be honest - I don’t like it at all😮 It is so hard to achieve even a tiny bit and it is quite “punishing” when you can ´t feed your family when the “feeding- phase” comes😮 I played it about 20 times, there are worldchampionships for Agricola, but I don ´t like it at all. Thank you for showing Caverna 🎉
@allaboutfunandgames5 ай бұрын
I've played Agricola as well......and I think Caverna is more of a pleasurable time..... still challenging overall, but not as you say so 'punishing' if you can't feed everyone. There is almost always a way you can feed everyone in Caverna. Thanks for your comments....

Hello Jenny, I just discovered your channel some days ago and I love it. I love games with a nature theme, so I really loved “leaf” - I had a look, this game will be available soon in Germany and as soon as it is available, I am going to purchase it. There is an expansion, called “the time of the bear” (in Germany) - do you have this expansion and if yes: how do you like it? I really like the Tuesday videos, where you show antique games, I think this is very interesting. I wasn ´t aware that there were “quite modern” games in the 1870s, I thought there was just chess or cardgames🤦🏻♀️ So thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos and thank you for showing us interesting games from long long ago🤗 and thank you for giving me new ideas for solo games - I play solo quite often😊🎉
