A Feast for Odin SOLO Review (You Can Solo That!?)

[@NicholasElkins]

I was literally just looking at the Solo rules for this last night as I got this game for my bday this week. I’ll be soloing it this weekend! Thanks for another awesome video

[@Wonderflonium]

The intro still cracks me up! Thanks for the video, I am very interested to try A Feast for Odin.

[@franciscocarranza9941]

Yup, only if I score 100 or more in the solo mode do I consider it a victory. I do understand though why some games don't explicitly state a win-lose condition. Variables in the game can make high scores vary from game to game. Glass Road is a good example of this. One thing I wish every solo mode included is challenges. Santa Maria and Viticulture are great examples. Challenges impose restrictions and force you try different strategies and discover other ways to play and win the game. It also helps aleviate the "this game is broken, there's only one good strategy" mentallity. A Feast for Odin offers this in its solo scenarios (available from it's BGG File section).

Wow, that amazing intro sums up my life right now

[@shawndecenzo7189]

I agree I like the designer to tell me a standard to beat. It's like eating a meal from a chef. I want the expert to show me what their vision is. And then I want to experience that

[@jeremiahhammer2282]

I definitely feel you on the win/lose condition. Good advice on the 100 points idea!

[@Vikingowa1983]

I think I will get this game for solo... thank u! I really like this series and your channel😊

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Thank you so much Monika! We appreciate it!

[@Otherspersons]

I love your solo vids!

[@vespera219]

I'm so glad this exists.

[@GameWeekendChalbie]

If it doesn’t have a win/lose condition, I make one. I actually got that idea from you when you made your video on dinosaur island. But it does feel better when the publisher makes it instead of us.

[@MeepleOverboard]

Ahoy Brother Nicko McMurpher, great video. Glad you tried it solo. It's a brilliant design. Mix of information and yelling at your imaginary mom. This is what KZbin was made for.

[@don_dad]

Looks like a great game... Just now getting into solo games.

[@Covepsy]

Nick is leveling up!

[@dancheston5786]

Fields of Arle is an amazing solo game as well. 😁

[@shawndecenzo7189]

This might be my favorite solo. Every game has a different focus. It doesn't take long to play

[@ericdollarhyde3296]

John Smith about how long is the solo? do you play 6 or 7 rounds? it sounds like the solo ruleset is pretty simple, no complex a.i. to keep up!! i wantsss...

[@scyldscefing3913]

Love it.

[@daihideo]

You know you are pretty strong Nick, when you can hold Feast for Odin box on your shoulder like that one handed with just the fingers. ;)

[@ZWBSCH]

Thx for review, I bought caverna and really like it solo. There is also a 100 points = very good condition. And here i like it more, because else i would play every game the same. So i play and after that i look at the score and say "hey this is way is worth it, or it is not".

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We do similarly. Love just exploring different strategies and seeing how they play out

[@paulstaker8861]

#planningdance is the best. This should be an official boardgame dance for every gamers.

[@J-Wheeler-G]

Is there a solo mode for Ethnos?

[@bWOOOPdeWooop]

What did other Nick say he was doing to other Mike?

[@gavinkinsley6851]

Hahaha I'm glad I watched all the way through for big face nick, hilarious! #youreNotReal

[@kevinbhieey9188]

It's actually better that there's no win/lose condition. Just pretend it's like Pandemic: Once you start beating that with 4 Epidemics, then up it to 5. Here, once you start regularly beating it at 100, move it up to 105. It's A VARIABLE win/lose condition!

[@crisglenn788]

Whoa... do you guys seriously have almost 5,000 subscribers? WHAT HAPPENED???

[@quibily]

Can anyone tell me how long this game takes to solo? Hour and a half? Two hours?

[@TheBrothersMurph]

I’d say 45-1hr not including set up and take down

[@quibily]

​@@TheBrothersMurph I tend to leave games set out on the table overnight a lot, so this sounds like it might be a good weeknight game for me! Thanks!

[@StuartHetzler]

Thanks for the vid. I'm off to build my Jarldom!

[@eVanDiesel]

Does this game have a variable set up? Otherwise, I feel it could be solved. I know nothing about this game

[@lexmartel]

I love this series...but other Nick could have been more helpful, must be hard working with him. Also, big head Nick is hilarious.

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

Your up to early. Great game though.
