6:11 Great to hear how much you enjoy Lands of Galzyr! We're working on an expansion with even more goodness for it. 🤫

[@BangersProject]

Now this is music to my ears, can't wait to see what fresh ideas you have in store for the expansion. Thanks so much for watching the video 👍

[@johnsparegrave5996]

Man, your videos are great and we have the same taste, love ya!

[@BangersProject]

Great to see you have amazing taste in games as well 😁

[@kenodo]

Great list of game recs! Some of my favorite at the moment are Everdell, Wyrmspan and Lost Tuins of Arnak. I was trying to steer clear of Lorcana for a long time because tcgs can get so expensive. Up until recently, my sister got me sucked into it and I caved in. Ravensburger released a solo play mode quest against Ursula and it's such an easy set up and play but so challenging. I've been so addicted to playing it and feels so relaxing to play for me (considering you're trying to defeat Ursula). Anyhow, thanks for sharing!

[@BangersProject]

Seems like we have very similar taste in games. Everdell is in my top 5 games of all time and I really do enjoy both Wyrmspan and Arnak. But Lorcana is the big hit for me lately. Australia only just got First Chapter last week and we are playing catch up. I can't wait for Ursula to drop so I can try that solo.

[@kenodo]

I never realized how late you guys were getting it out there! I was going to offer to ship Ursula's illumineers quest out to you (from the US) but the rates are crazy! It'll be like paying double for the game itself 😨

[@mattkutrik]

Great suggestions. As you were showing the Sleeping Gods games in the background, I was in the comments already about to type "Lands of Galzyr" as an excellent story, sort-of campaign, starter solo game, but you beat me to it! Nice picks here! I started out years ago when I got Star Wars Outer Rim and set it up to play with someone who ended up having to bail on me. I then saw there was solo-play and was immediately hooked on solo gaming. Some other great picks that are focused on solo only are Maquis, Black Sonata, Warps Edge and Under Falling Skies. Also, for roll-and-writes, I also love sitting down and drawing out a map in Cartographers.

[@BangersProject]

Haha yeah massive fan of Lands of Galzyr. I play it with my youngest daughter and solo, both are great in there own way. Also now you are reading my own mind! I meant to add Cartographers, it was in my script but sadly I got to carried away and forgot to mention it as I was talking. Great game also

[@jannilsprochnow183]

The game Friday is a new found solo game I love. Great game with many interesting decisions

[@BangersProject]

These small games are amazing as they allow quick setup. Some nights I don't have the energy for big games, so having games like Friday in your collection are a must have. Great choice 👌

[@donnakeferlis1649]

LOVE solo!!! For the reasons you expressed so well (9:45) I play 2pl with my husband a lot, but we both have our fave solos that we enjoy. He's more of a Final Girl soloist, while I'm into Agricola and the like. Great episode 👍😁 BTW, 3:51 🥰

[@BangersProject]

Agricola is such a wonderful game, great choice 👏 Yeah we are the same, primarily 2p with my partner as well but I love to play solo when I can. It's just a different experience but still lots of fun 😁 Haha I haven't had Matilda in a video for a while. Betty is patiently waiting her turn for the next video!

[@thesolitairegambit2556]

Glad to found your channel! Solo gaming is one of my favorite ways to play b/c it brings me peace and I don’t have to deal with other people because I don’t like many people in general. LOL I mostly play all X&write games by myself. Most Shem Philip games solo tool. Marvel champions LCG. Hadrian’s Wall. ButtonShy Wallet games. I even like most coop games solo. 😊

[@BangersProject]

Hey mate, so great to have you on board. Lol I know exactly what you are saying, sometimes being by yourself and enjoying a game is life's guilty pleasure. Massive fan of Architects, yet to try Shems newer games though. Great suggestions!

[@markdandridge4433]

I stumbled across your channel this afternoon. I saw you had Dwellings of Eldervale on your shelf. That is my favorite solo experience of all time. I was initially extremely scared of the size. I wouldn't consider myself a quote board gamer. I now own all of Luke Laurie games. I can't wait for Adromada's Edge! 🚀🚀🚀

[@BangersProject]

Back in 2022, it was my favourite board game of all time. It's slipped a little but still top 20. It's also still got my fave type of combat, it's crazy simple and doesn't overpower the game play. Such a great choice, I haven't played it solo for probably 18 months, but you have convinced me to get it to the table again 😁

[@BeastmasterRanger]

Solid list. I just started getting solo board games. Fleet was one of first ones I played and I really enjoyed it. Twilight Inscription is the other and it is an absolute blast to play.

[@BangersProject]

Have not played Twilight Inscription but a friend if mine also suggested it. I better try and check it out 👍

[@blueroselion5243]

Recently discovered solo games. Currently playing an Exit game and enjoying it very much. I'm glad to see it on your list.

[@BangersProject]

Yeah once you find solo you realise how many great options are out there. Great choice with Exit 👍

[@ES-yc1tp]

awesome video, i’ve been eyeing Tiny Towns for a while, maybe i’ll get it soon 😊

[@BangersProject]

Tiny Towns is surprisingly thinky, it's amazing how quickly your town board fills up and you realise how inefficient you have been lol or maybe that's just me

[@daveb1101]

Love seeing Flamme Rouge recommended! Great for any number of players! ❤️

[@BangersProject]

I have made up full seasons and played solo through it, tracking all the teams (colours) throughout. Carrying over standings between races and some exhaustion. Basically I made my own fan-made solo and I just love it 😀

[@birdingforlife3897]

Oooh I see ISS Vanguard, now that looks fun solo

[@BangersProject]

Hoping to crack it real soon 😁

[@STFOURNARIS]

Some of my favorite solo games: Warp Drive, Jump Drive, Star Realms Frontiers, Tiny Epic Kingdoms and Tiny Epic Galaxies, Age of Galaxy, Age of Civilization, For Glory with solo play expansion.

[@BangersProject]

So many titles I'm yet to try, but have played Tiny Epic Galaxies at 4 player. I should try this and also Tiny Epic Vikings at solo soon to see how they play. Thanks heaps for the comment.

[@STFOURNARIS]

@@BangersProject if you like adventure look up runebound 2nd edition

[@wiblick]

Have a few of the games you mention. I'm solo only. Started in the hobby about 6 months ago. Unlocked series looks interesting. Have discovered a strong preference for narrative/campaign games like Earthborne Rangers & Sleeping Gods Distant Skies. Just about to buy ISS Vanguard .... is yours out of wrap yet? 😉 No video yet that I can find. Looking forward to your thoughts.

[@BangersProject]

Hey mate appreciate the comment, ISS Vanguard was cracked open last night to look over the rules, in anticipation of playing it this week solo. There is soooo much to get through, slightly overwhelming at first sight but super excited to finally get this to the table. I will be sure to jump back on here and give you my initial thoughts after playing 👍

[@richardhutnik]

The poochie in the video looks like an awesome addition to the collection of any solo gamer. 🙂

[@BangersProject]

Haha can confirm amazing sidekick indeed 😄

[@DocBhoy]

+1 Cascadia. Other great solo roll n writes: Rolling Realms (from Stonemaier), Super Skill Pinball, Draft and Write Records, and an oldie would be Roll Through The Ages Other solo games to try: Terraforming Mars, Race for the Galaxy (with the Gathering Storm expansion), Obsession, Agricola, Fantastic Factories, Ark Nova (especially with the fan made A.R.N.O. app)

[@BangersProject]

Some awesome suggestions here thank you. I have always wanted to try Obsession and Fantastic Factories, so definitely adding them to my solo wish list 👍

[@ianwilz1979]

Great list. While the Automa in SM is best known you really should mention Automa Factory as they are the ones who actually create them. My favorite Roll/Flip and Writes are Cartographers, Dinosaur Island Rawr n Write, and Three Sisters. A lot of you list are in my collection: Fleet and Three Sisters Cascadia, Calico, Maple Valley Maple Valley (and Creature Comforts) Wingspan (although it’s honestly one of my least favorite Automa’s for SM games) I’m surprised you didn’t mention Legacy of Yu in your campaign discussion. I became a major solo gamer in the past 1.5 years

[@BangersProject]

Ian you truly are spot on. There is a guy who works for Stonemaier who runs the Automa factory and yes this man is the brains behind the solo. I am not sure if it's a team but I have heard Jamey refer to him in the past. Thank you for correcting me 👍

[@BangersProject]

I'm sorry I have not played Legacy of Yu yet. But yes sounds like we have very similar tastes, so I must go check it out for sure.

[@ianwilz1979]

@@BangersProject His name is Morten Mondrian Pedersen (I think Automa Factory is a group of people at this point) and he actually just released his first game I believe it was. It’s a card game called Skoventyr and was published through inPatience. It’s a good solo game as well.

[@ianwilz1979]

@@BangersProject I just figured when you were mentioning games types of games at the beginning Legacy of Yu may have come up as a mention under campaign games. We definitely have a lot in common.

[@BangersProject]

Mate I will need to check this game out. You are certainly teaching me some new games to go check out. I reckon the solo on it would have to be good with their pedigree

[@greygamervideo]

So difficult to get board games that are recommended by you tube videos in the UK. Always they seem to be "out of stock" 😢

[@BangersProject]

I have similar problems in Australia with some games. It seems every country not named the US has this issue sadly. Land of Galzyr I was super lucky as only 1 store stocked it around me. Sometimes you get lucky! Thanks for the comment 👍

[@bethjones3412]

Have you played games from the oniverse? If so, which is your favorite and why?

[@BangersProject]

I have only played Onirim digitally, would love to try the original card game one day. What's your fave out of them?
