7th Citadel also my number 1 so far this year, and Agemonia backed (July '24)....(having played ISS Vanguard and Sleeping Gods Distant Skies of this type) will root around the channel, but would be interested to hear your full list of favourite 'exploratory' games - maybe later this year? Have you backed Spirt Fire? And must see how you rate Etherfields... I have it coming tomorrow so either way I'm stuck with trying it!

Great list. I passed on Unstoppable because the theme didn’t grab me, but maybe I should give it another look. My favorite game of 2024 is also my new favorite of all time: Voidfall. I also really like Leviathan Wilds. It’s so easy to get to the table (unlike Voidfall) and has a very favorable juice/squeeze ratio, to use Mark Dainty parlance.
@OneStopCoopShop2 ай бұрын
Yeah, Voidfall’s challenge to table made it tough to play for me. Also it was on the 2023 list, so it won’t pop up this year ;)
@ryangilmore36782 ай бұрын

Great lists! I absolutely love Leviathan Wilds and Slaybthe Spire right now! Also enjoying both the Kinfire Delves. What's your thoughts on those? Eagerly waiting for the third one to release. I'm still waiting for Primal to arrive, and waiting for the Agemonia reprint to launch. Unstoppable is on my list to back, it's good seeing you enjoy it so much. What's your thoughts on Hoplo: Victorum (current releqse and expansion)? Would you say it's worth the price? If so, where would it fall on this list if you had to add it?
@OneStopCoopShop2 ай бұрын
Oh I love Kinfire. I'm actually recording an early video for set #3. It's great! But since that was already on my best of 2023 list, it won't show up again here. Hoplo Victorum was also on a previous year's list. Great game for solo play. The expansion stuff isn't necessary, but what I saw looks solid.

Those are both a very specific type of exploratory game that I love. But yeah, if you don't like one I wouldn't expect you to like the other either :) But Leviathan Wilds is a totally different beast. Everyone I've played that with from full-on gamers to my youngest son have all enjoyed it.

Astro knights is fun, and I think it’s a better cooperative experience than Unstoppable’s 2-player mode. But for solo I find unstoppable far more fun

Primal Awakening: same as you. Great card game but a lot of triggers and things to track for solo. Also overproduced (unnecesary miniatures and gigant boxes on my shelve). Buttons & Bugs: waiting for retail. Slay the Spire: I LOVE the videogame, but can't justify a 110+ € box for an almost exact version of a game I already own. Also if I want to play Slay the Spire coop there's a workshop mod in Steam for that. I understand the pleasure of playing with phisical cards but... Leviathan Wilds: I wish I liked it more but no true solo brings me back. A great game anyways. Agemonia: the combat part kills the game for me :( 7th citadel: same as Agemonia. My favourite so far: Skytear Horde Monoliths
@OneStopCoopShop2 ай бұрын
Skytear Monoliths is fantastic! But since it’s mainly an expansion, it won’t be eligible for my end of year lists.

I'm assuming you mean the crowdfunding #1? The negatives I've seen are "I wish they added more bonus cards" and "I wish the shipping was lower". I agree with both of those, but neither has an impact on how good I think the design and gameplay are.
