Solo Playthrough | Palm Island

[@johnricker7064]

Another well done video, but I will be the first to say that I would like to see your Top 10 Solo Games. P.S. I also really enjoy your Button Shy Playthroughs.

[@SirThecos]

Thanks, John! I actually thought about doing something like that but there already are lots of such ranked lists on KZbin. Thanks for letting me know that this would be interesting for you, nonetheless - I'll put that on my To Do-List. 👍 I'm glad you enjoy my Button Shy playthroughs. Spoiler: There might be something else coming this week. 😉

Superb Playthrough Sir T

😊

[@lockzer0]

great video and explanation. subscribed. looking forward to watching more of your videos!

[@SirThecos]

Thank you very much - I highly appreciate that! 🙂 I hope you'll enjoy my future videos as well - I still have quite a few plans for the future. 😎

[@Anaoa_Official]

I would love a playthrough with the feat and/or villager cards, and hopefully even with the cooperative or competitive cards if you have someone to play with!

[@SirThecos]

Unfortunately, I don't own the game anymore - but if I ever get my hands on it again, I might do that! 🤓

[@Anaoa_Official]

Ooooh you sell your games? It's alright though thank you for replying!

[@SirThecos]

@@Anaoa_Official Yeah, sometimes I have to - otherwise, I wouldn't have enough space. 😅 I enjoyed Palm Island but at some point I was pretty much through with it. 🤓

[@Anaoa_Official]

@@SirThecos Understandable, I'd probably also do that someday once I collected too much board games and pnp games! 😆

No one gonna mention the Pokemon mug in the back? Love it.

[@SirThecos]

It's so nostalgic to look back at these videos. But Pokémon still is amazing. I'm a huge fan. 😄

[@juliajackson1592]

I am wanting to play solo with feats but can’t figure out how to incorporate. Does anyone know how? Thank you!

[@SirThecos]

On one side of the feat cards there is the goal you need to reach in any game you're playing - for example: Have two temples at rank 3+ and 30+ points at the end. If you reach such a goal you unlock that card permanently and can use it in any future game. To do so you place it behind the round card after setting up the deck for a game. I hope that I explained it well enough. 😎

This is awesome! I just ordered this game yesterday and, interestingly, I could only get the German version - zumindest kann ich mein Deutsch ein bisschen üben, auch wenn ich das Spiel nicht gewinne! 😂

[@SirThecos]

Dein deutscher Satz war perfekt! ☺️ So, how's it going with the German version? Have you unlocked any of the extra cards yet?

[@mrsmac4739]

@@SirThecos it's going really well thanks! Yes I've managed to unlock 6 of the extra cards so far. Still working on Monument des Ruhms, Symbol des Ausgleichs, and Willensstärke 💪

This has been my go-to travel game this year since it’s so easy to play on a plane. My scores always seem to be in the mid-30s. Do you think it’s possible to score over 40 with the base game or do you need the achievement cards for that?

[@SirThecos]

Hm, not really - I once read that the highest you could possibly reach with the base game is 42. So, it's hard - achievement cards would be necessary here. It's a really good game! Imho, I just played it enough and gave it away just recently. But that's also due to the growing game library. 😅

[@reapingjoker4198]

I really want this game but I can’t find it anywhere. 😢

[@SirThecos]

Oh, it that hard to find? I just gave mine away a little while ago. 😱

[@XO-fp6yb]

Do you know of any other solo games you can play in hand like this? I love your videos :)

[@SirThecos]

I'm so happy to hear that! 😊 Maiden's Quest is an in-hand card game, too, as is Palm Laboratory (by the makers of Palm Island) that was just on Kickstarter. Apart from that, you can check out my videos for the In-Hand Card Game Contest - there'll you have even more in-hand card games you can play solo! 😎

[@gamercoon1995]

Oops, at 27:47 you cheat by taking the 3rd card back, and use it to buy the second card! [You do end up cycling the front card, so it doesn't matter much, but it does change the deck order and is shown as a valid play ;) ]

[@SirThecos]

Oops. 😬

[@mikebell3127]

Grrrrr i thought you lost resources after the round. I need to replay this game

[@SirThecos]

Haha, let me know how it goes! 😅

[@redsable1434]

I play this while waiting in line to pick up kids from school

[@SirThecos]

A good game for that! I usually have a deck of cards or Maiden's Quest for that. 😁
