If Chris Pratt had two brothers into boardgames these two would be them.

[@kalif350]

Mage Knight, This war of Mine, Robinson Crusoe, 7th Continent, Heroes of land air and Sea.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We will work to find a way to marry into his family so we can make this happen

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Nice! Not afraid of a challenge then!

[@stacie_everdell]

If I had two brothers, I would want them to be Nick and Mike...then maybe I wouldn't play so many solo games. :)'

[@eVanDiesel]

My favorite solo games are finding people playing Welcome To and Cartographers on youtube and to play along!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Real talk this is a great way to play

[@stacie_everdell]

+1 Yes!

[@TheGamingWard]

I love doing this with Railroad Ink as well!

[@wicaksonoadi1035]

There's no solo experience like Mage Knight! It has everything, from RPG, exploration, conquest, magic, deckbuilding, and trying to play your card intellegently even when you have a bad hand. It's not only the best solo game in my list, but also one of the best game I've ever played.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

I want them to make Mage Knight on something like Steam, I don't think we'll ever try the game physically, but I wouldn't mind trying it digitally like Sycthe

[@AngryCheezburger303]

@@TheBrothersMurph You can buy Tabletop Simulator on Steam for 19,99 (euro's, not sure what it is in dollars) and it has workshop integration, so you can literally play almost every popular boardgame for free in a fully interactive digital table setting. It's absolutely genius and I've used it to play Mage Knight, Eldritch Horror, Arkham Horror LCG, Lotr LCG, spirit island, gloomhaven, the list is endless. Try it!

[@ashleygray1632]

@Dr. D of Astrology probably because of setup

[@metalwizard1969]

Mage Knight is one of my top 3 games right now and my favorite solo game.

[@davidaquino7023]

My favorite solo game too. Setup can be a pain, true, but it's so good and there's so much great content.

[@jagdeepkaul1261]

I don't know what's more depressing, the fact that I'm up 2:30 am YouTubing one player boardgames because I have no friends, let alone a girlfriend to play with, or I'm looking for a Christmas present which I will buy and wrap myself and put it under the tree and then pretend to act surprise when I open it on Christmas day 2020

[@rayanallouzi8806]

dude buy tabletop simulator right now, then you can play all the board games without buying each one individually

[@stacie_everdell]

For those of us who still prefer the tactile version, I'm right there with you. You may feel alone, but actually you're not. Just think, when you're up at 2:30 am watching this video, others are too. I also head over to Reddit (r/soloboardgaming) where you can find a great community of solo gamers in discussions but also in live chats (in the middle of the night). And as far as presents, I've already bought 3 games for myself to do just that. Nothing wrong with it! Enjoy them. :)

[@jonathanmichaelrios9322]

What’s tabletop simulator??

[@andrepaquin3347]

Last year I watched all kinds of Solo game advice videos, bought myself Field Commander: Napoleon, wrapped it myself and put it under the tree and then pretended to act surprised when I opened it on Christmas Day 2020. Best gift ever!

[@shaidebean8117]

Love your lists! A feast for Odin is so fantastic. Uwe says he makes games solo first then adds multiplayer.

[@eboskie1]

Mage Knight and Too Many Bones.. nuff said..

[@paulius14]

Great list, great video! You're giving good explanations, which really gives insight in what makes the games good. Thumbs up!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Thank Paul!

[@alanabbey7240]

Love video and the enthusiasm, some really helpful thoughts too. I'm playing a lot of Zulus on the Ramparts, a solo game I think you will like. The AI simply moves one, some or all of the Zulu units a random number of spaces closer to the defences of Rorkes Drift. You need to use the cards to build defences, fire volleys, put out fires etc. Before you get over run. Simple but effective play but so difficult to get right!

[@Quackalope]

Quack :) - keep it up - excited to see the ones that you love the most!

[@LucasGentry]

Great video, thanks for all the suggestions! If I was going to make a list, it would definitely also include Race for the Galaxy on the list.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We've only ever played Race once, and liked it, haven't had a chance to play it solo before though

[@ShimmerArc]

My top 5 would be Tainted Grail, Feast for Odin, 7th Continent, Arkham Horror LCG and Kingdom Death Monster (in no particular order, I love them all too much to order them!).

[@fredoblong]

You guys should break it down next year with big box and filler solo games as they offer unique experiences (and give more titles the props they deserve!) Right now I am LOVING Blitzkrieg! (solo is as good as 2p). Small box Maquis and Orchard along with the aforementioned. Big box I am digging Death May Die, Tainted Grail, and Vindication. Really excited to play Anachrony

[@ChristopherWalrath]

I love putting games on the table to play solo. Pandemic, Tiny Epic Galaxies, Space Empires. Just love playing games.

[@Hermes4939]

Thanks for the continued content!! Glad you are both home and safe. :)

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Thanks Steve!

[@mariusferreira1297]

You guys are AWESOME 😀 I love your channel, thank you so much for doing this video 👍

[@stacie_everdell]

I LOVE that you guys picked mostly games that are not solo-only. There are a lot of games out there that are 1+ players or like you said, have home-brewed solo variants. These are the game reviews that, as a solo player, I find most helpful. For instance, right now, I am trying to choose my next medium weight game which is rare to find in a solo-only production. I was most interested to hear your comments about Viticulture and Feast for Odin. As far as my favorite game to solo in this category, it remains Robinson Crusoe: Adventures of a Cursed Island. Oh my, so good solo. After all, Robinson didn't have his BFF with him, just Friday and Skip, the dog.

[@sirvliam]

Great choice on AFFO! Blackout Hong Kong solo is one you guys might like. The multi player has very limited interaction anyway, and the solo makes an unlucky dice roll feel more like a challenge to overcome. The final scoring is points based and you get a certain # of ⭐️ based on how many points you score in a game (you have to hit a minimum threshold to score any ⭐️) at the end of the campaign you add up your stars for a final rating.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We've gotten mixed reviews from friends on Blackout, but we've still wanted to try it. And knowing it's got a good solo surely helps its chances

[@puffbronfman03]

Awkward Guests is fantastic solo using the companion app. It streamlines everything into a smooth, tense experience as you try to uncover that one last clue to crack the case wide open before you run out of time

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Interesting! We had no idea you could solo it!

[@Harmonier1]

Great video, guys! Thank you

[@a_walk_down_memory_lane]

Interesting list compared to a lot of other solo top 10s. I have to check out The Networks. Thank you for the video.

[@johnathanrhoades7751]

Nice to see you guys! If you like heavy Euro's, Gaia Project has an amazing automa system. If you are ok with crazy rules overheard, Mage Knight is amazing. Arkham Horror LCG is an amazing story driven solo experience (dark ambient music adds a lot). Those are probably my three favorite solo games... Onirim, Too Many Bones, Coffee Roaster, Gloomhaven, and Teotihuacan are also all a good time.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

All of these are on the list in some capacity. I would love to see a digital version of Mage Knight, since I don't think we'll ever play the physical game

[@aguerreropi]

Great video! Stay safe, guys, this is serious but we will prevail. Best regards from Spain

[@Peejay1966]

It's a real bummer; as I can't play at home, most of my games are at other people's flats! Just bought Wingspan to solo, but also teach one of my brothers. The camping table is coming out. Will have to look at the other games I've been saving for later introduction to my groups. Keep up the good work. You've given me some ideas. It would be a long 12 weeks with games.

[@kennethpaschall4801]

Great list guys. Roll Player and Call to Adventure are two great quick games to paly solo. Love the West Kingdom games solo. Too many good ones to mention.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Roll Player was probs our number 11 or 12

[@korylemon8911]

I love watching videos from March when Covid was really starting to get kicked off. Some age well, some don't. Can't wait to see what things look like in 5 years and coming across mentions of Covid.

[@DutchYoda]

I solo a lot of Robinson Crusoe and Tainted Grail lately.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

My roommate is still waiting on his copy of Tainted Grail, I'm going to have to paint the whole thing lol

[@RossEphgrave]

Here are some more honourable mentions to consider... Race for The Galaxy and Clans of Caledonia - which have solo modes. Castles of Burgundy, Stone Age and Azul are fantastic two player games that can still be enjoyed as one playing two. When I get real ambitious and play me, myself and I 3 player solo mode, Kingsburg 2nd edition can be challenging yet do-able. But my new favourite game is Village plus expansions and with Village Port it is a blast as solo, 2 or 3 player counts! Like your channel keep up the great work 👍✌️🆗😁✅👌

[@clintonjeffrey6699]

I believe Uwe repeated FfO's solo style in Reykholt's solo. Great list!

[@whatonearth6835]

Sprawlopolis. Super thinky, super clever, super fast, loads of different ways to score each game and fits in your pocket

[@TheBrothersMurph]

A few people have mentioned this! WE have GOT to try it. Love solo, and Loooove small pocket games

[@nickyzdrums]

I have been rolling alot of Marvel Champions, Wingspan, and Journey's In Middle Earth Solo. Quarantine Life.

[@JonoTay88]

going to try wingspan solo today... unless the wifey wants in >.

[@evannadeau3938]

I love Champions and Wingspan solo. Check this out for Wingspan. myautoma.github.io/#wingspan You wont have to set up anything and makes set up and tear down AND the scoring each round and at the end amazing. I also proxied the Champion hero decks so I can try them out. Can’t wait until they finally restock

[@JonoTay88]

@@evannadeau3938 thanks for that link! Love it

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Journey's would be a great solo, I feel like any game that has an app companion naturally leads to good solo play!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

What is this!?!?! This is so cool!!!!!

[@Fighterfan69]

Nice list. 4 of 10 are in my collections and some of my favorites for solo play. Feast for Odin, Terraforming Mars, Paladins, and Empires of the North. Ex libris is on my 'want in trade' list. I think my wife will enjoy that one.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Ex Libris is greatttttttt

[@michaelrodriguez3129]

I love playing Heroes of Land, Air, and Sea solo. It comes with an Automa deck that you can make copies for multiple AI. Then each AI plays differently based on the faction it is assigned. I’ve played 3 AI factions and it was so much fun.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

That's super cool! We have wanted to try HoLAS really bad! But no one we know has it :(

[@2frelledminds]

I haven't played a lot of games solo, but Ex Libris is my favorite game to play solo. In this time of self isolation, I've been looking to play more of my games that have a solo mode. I was surprised just now to find out that I have played more of the ones with official solo variants solo than I haven't. I have 17 games that have unofficial solo variants, which I plan to work in at some point. My second favorite game to solo is Spell Smashers.

[@galaxygaming5719]

Great job you guys

[@joxer96]

My top 5 in descending order: Arkham Horror LCG, The Lord of the Rings LCG, Aeon's End, Aventuria Adventure Card Game, and Roll Player.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

A ton of people love Arkham solo it seems!

[@SPACEB0YZER0]

Arkham lcg is amazing solo or with 2...not crazy about it with more...but currently my favorite game! Wife and I have played everything so far. I also love mage knight solo Played gloomhaven and mansions of madness 2nd solo and liked those as well.

[@s.c.i.1976]

I recently refound a great solo game. Electric Football is a great solo game. Granted there are some things you need to work on before the game is playable/enjoyable but there is an active community and a ton of solo rules to chose from and tutorials as well.

[@petergross7235]

Thanks for the solo list! Stay safe guys. Did Zee make you add Onirim?

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Under pain of death

[@Judge_Jon]

Spirit Island is an AMAZING co-op game. Haven't tried it solo but I figure it would be great.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We do like it co-op, and we know people loooove it solo. Someday I'm sure we'll try it!

[@Carpetslipper]

It is great solo…… it hurts my brain though.

[@christofferthormannjensen3371]

Some of my favourites are: Paladins of the West Kingdom Wingspan Cartographers Tiny Towns Empires of the North Roll Player

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We play Cartographers with our chat live on Twitch, and we use the solo rules for it! Works perfectly!

[@monomundo]

Some solo games I love; - Deep Space D6 - Nemo's War (it would be a ten if it was space-themed) - Star Trek Frontiers - Hostage Negotiator - Onirim Interestingly The 7th Continent (too computer gamish) and Robinson Crusoe (theme), Friday (theme) did not work as well for me. Stay safe guys!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Interesting, I have never heard of 7th Continent put that way but I suppose you're right. But we lurveeee it

[@jamesbrazeal3847]

Great list guys. My favorite solo game is Dresden Files Co op game.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We ended up giving this game away, part of me wishes we didn't

[@richprice482]

Great job, thanks. Good to see you about at Airecon.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Airecon was amazing!! We were so happy to be there

[@deanmuramoto4796]

Some of my favorite games I played solo are: 10, Oniverse Games 9, Friday 8, Conquest of Planet Earth 7, Heroes of Terrinoth 6, Salvation Road 5, Minerva 4, Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game 3, Dungeon Dice 2, Roll Player 1, Hostage Negotiator Other games I want to try solo are: Glass Road, Marvel Champions, Proving Grounds, and Cartographer.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Still want to try Proving Grounds as well. We are always intrigued by solo only games

[@loltanios]

I recently discovered Gaia Project has an excellent solo mode. Really looking forward to trying A Feast for Odin solo. Thanks for the list.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

A couple people have mentioned Gaia, we have to try this one

[@joekarlovsky6242]

Been playing a lot solo this week from my collection. 1. Viticulture 2. Wingspan 3. Horrified 4. Onirim 5. Baseball Highlights 2045 Soon I'll do Marvel Champions, Terraforming Mars, and Welcome To.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Wingspan was very close to making this list. Stonemaier does them some good solo's

[@tzgardner]

I play a variant of Legendary where I use a deck of Ambition cards and a deck of Horror cards. I draw an Ambition card right after drawing a Villain card. I play a Horror card right after defeating a Mastermind Tactic. Creates some nice variation, story and difficulty to the game. It also balances difficulty while only having to play 1 hand. As a lot of people play 2 handed solo games.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

This is a super cool Idea TZ! We have to try this!

[@jay_cadiramen]

Great video, and timely given the lock down we're all experiencing thanks to Covid 19

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We were planning on doing this list next anyway, but it felt even more right to do it now

[@Nain1982]

Although it's not my favorite game, I do agree that Feast for Odin is a great solo game. It's the game that got me into accepting solo gaming. It's just so fun to try to beat your score and try new strategies. With the expansion it's even better. Uwe's games just work well at solo count

[@Nain1982]

Gates of Loyang, Nusfjord, Glass Road and Space hulk death angel are other good solo games.

[@mattphowley]

Have you played Nusfjord? It has same mechanic as FFO in that you use 2 colours, 1 each round blocking yourself. Its a quick game as well. Definitely worth checking out

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Oh cool! Mike has played it once and dug it. Will have to try and track it down some day.

[@Lost13]

Great list. My favorite solos are Robinson Crusoe, Arkham Horror the card game, and Dice City.

[@StuartHetzler]

I totally agree with your number 1. The beat your own score mechanic is kinda meh, but there isn't really an AI to get in your way and it's fun to just build your village and try and become a successful jarldom. I also play with the "if you don't beat 100 you lose" rule. I finally "beat" it on solo a few nights ago and got a score of 143. Felt so satisfied.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Getting a really good score in solo Feast is soooooo satisfying!

[@colinshenefield667]

A couple of light games that I like to solo are Sagrada & Welcome to . . . For a heavier and very thematic experience, Robinson Crusoe 2nd edition is one that I have played most often. I like all of the replay ability with all of the different scenarios even though I mostly play the Scenario One.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We've always heard that Sagrada solo is really really good! Been wanting to try it!

[@Manny0Calavera]

Have you guys tried playing Nemesis solo? I'd love to watch an episode of You can solo that!? on that game!

[@Jsleezy_2000]

I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the solo for Sagrada.

[@blackjack2150]

It's fun, but also very hard to win, even with access to 5 tool, which they say it's the easy mode.

Tainted Grail..nothing compares to the solo feeling of this..

Shout out to game night .

[@Meeple-Konrad]

I played Zombicide Black Plague/Green Horde last week, and I've done it a few times before. You just need to keep track of which hero you activate. I just put a peg in the "0" slot of the wounds and take them out one round, then place them back in on the next. I love it, because I always tell a little story as I go. Have the characters yelling at each other.... I'm not weird. YOU'RE WEIRD!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Ha!!! Do you have the companion app? Makes playing the game sooo much easier, and I can assume it would make solo-ing much much easier as well. As everything is done in the app. The only physical things you need are the boards, tokens, and mini's. Everything else, cards, dashboards, etc is in the app. We literally recycled everything else in that game because we'll never go back

[@Meeple-Konrad]

@@TheBrothersMurph dang. no. I gave it one try and didn't care for it. Plus, I've played with large groups, so I wanted to keep the physical stuff. But I'll have to give it a second try when I solo it again.

[@dannyp4174]

Yes, it was like you were secretly being recruited to save survivors, and you had to know someone who already had it to get it.

@@dannyp4174 That was it, a very odd release. But to be fair EVERYONE was talking about it when it came out

[@allaroundthemetaverse-nftg725]

It's time for an update!

[@johnwheeler6839]

I am not a solo player at all but one I like a lot is Trismegistus the AI is very simple (not as easy as AFFO) to use but you still have the same experience of the game. The only bad thing it has is that I find it a little bit too easy to beat.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Really want to try this solo

@@TheBrothersMurph give it a go, it wont take you long at all to read it.

Friday is not that hard *IF* you burn life down a TON to purge out crappy cards hard at the very beginning until you have a super slim, high powered deck. Then power through the yellow and red levels. It’s a lot easier that way.

I love the nerds 💖 let’s play solo games side by side

[@hatchimmmmm]

For solo: Xia forsaken it's what iam playing now 😁 Outer rim it's good too

Man I love xia, but reading to solo rules left me feeling very "meh" I ended up just packing it up and never even tried it. It just felt so limited, and some objectives felt impossible. "Win 1st turn". Really?

If there is a decision to be made between games, I tend to sway in the direction of buying those with a solid solo, other things being roughly equal. Games are fairly expensive so increasing the chance of it hitting the table is only a good thing…. For me at least. I find board games, even solo more engaging generally than video games nowadays. Nobody asked for it but there go…. My opinion! 🧐

Cloudspire!!!

Only got to play 3/4 of one co-op game, but def wanted to play more. We love how there is a whole massive solo booklet! So freaking cool!

The fallout board game has great story telling. The only issue I've had with it were the win conditions. Do you play normal win conditions?
