As someone who doesn't have many people who like playing board games live close to me, I appreciate that a channel like yours exists and that it is consistently producing excellent content. Wishes for happy holidays and a Happy New Year from Greece.

[@RollingSolo]

Appreciate that! You’ve been a staple here and it’s been great chatting with you over the years. Hope the New Year is good to you!

[@raortiz73]

I look forward to this list every year. I enjoy seeing what my fellow Rollin Solo community has liked playing. It's crazy how diverse the games usually are. I also enjoy the Facebook group. Best group I am a part of online. I agree Adam, it's the most chill group of people.

[@RollingSolo]

Hey Rafael! Thanks for being a part of it all. I agree, it’s cool to see what the solo community is pumped about.

Happy new year and thank you. Good to know that I backed 5 games including the top3. Unfortunately not one of them have arrived yet.

Arr! Well hopefully they land for you soon. All the best in 2023!

[@nifarious]

What a cameo! I'll definitely have to look into My Lil Everdell too. Interesting list--some real stuff to consider outside the usual suspects!

[@Moxnzl]

Great video as always! And great guest appearance :D My top 3 would probably be... ISS Vanguard, Frostpunk and Burncycle :) (Wayfarers of the South Tigris + Endless Winter are very close.. but have only played them a couple of times so far) My 5 year old daughters top 3 that she had played this year would be... Unlock! Kids. My First Castle Panic.. and Monza... Still waiting on My First Everdell to arrive down here in New Zealand! :D

[@RollingSolo]

Hey! Thanks for sharing your list. Nice to see a list of kid focused games too. Unlock would certainly be a good one for kids. Might have to dig into that more! I plan to visit New Zealand someday. Such a beautiful place and I’m a huge LOTR fan.

[@SouthernWolf]

Great video! My favorite this year has been Chronicles of Drunagor, but I just received ISS Vanguard and Aeon Trespass, looking forward to those (someday). Serenity was adorable!!

[@RollingSolo]

You’ve got some good times ahead with those two!!

[@paulkalogeras7333]

Thank you Adam (Serenity, family and community) for a great year for Board games, I mean all the games in the list are really good 👍 2022 was kind to solo board games for sure and wishing everyone good health and more time to play games !!!! (Happy to see MD2 getting the praise it deserves from the community 🙌)

[@RollingSolo]

Same to you and yours Paul! Glad to have you as part of the solo community. We got a lot of great games to keep us busy this year. 2023 looks to be exciting as well! MD2 deserves the credit. They did a good job of listening to prior backers and turning the corner on MD1 into a much better overall game. I really enjoy it!

[@beakerkell]

Awesome list! Just started setting up the tutorial this morning for ISS Vanguard. Really looking forward to trying it out!

[@RollingSolo]

Sweet! Thanks for watching too. Have fun 🚀

[@yingling69]

Such a great list!! 2022 had some of the very best games release for us solo players. My bank account hated it, but man, what a year! The HexploreIt games have been some of my all time favorites. The Domain of Mirza Noctis stayed on my table for weeks. I have had such a blast with it and am looking forward to playing it again soon. I really like the stories that you create as you play. I definitely need more hours in a day to get into the campaign book, Klik’s Madness, but I’ll get to it soon. I have Hoplomachus Lost Cities and have had a blast with it over the years, so backing Victorum was a no brainer for me. It is on the table now as I play through my second campaign. It hits all the right buttons and I couldn’t be happier. Hopefully, I’ll get all of the rules right this time through! I hope you get the same level of enjoyment when it gets to you. Happy New Year!!

[@RollingSolo]

haha I hear you! HEXplore It has certainly made a name for itself in the solo community. I can’t wait for Hoplo to land. It’ll be a great mix of past and present mixed together. 😄 Thanks for sharing all you me thoughts too. Big fan of comments like this. 👏🏼

[@MashingP]

Woo... good job Rollers. ISS Vanguard is also my #1 solo game of the year (and also my personal GOTY).

[@RollingSolo]

Sounds like the community is aligned!

[@strahdf]

Ty for the video, Happy 2023 to all

[@RollingSolo]

You bet! Have a great 2023 🎉🥳

[@01hornsfan]

Thanks for all the work you do for the channel, Adam. The content is great. Even though I’m not a solo gamer, I like a lot of these in a small group, and in that context I still greatly enjoy your opinions and your playthroughs. For me, top surprise was Lands of Galzyr. Top keeper was Return to Dark Tower. Biggest disappointment was Oathsworn (I like Gloomhaven better for the tactical gameplay and the narrative gameplay didn’t stand out to me). Most anticipated (that made your list but still hasn’t arrived for me) is Frosthaven. Most anticipated for 2023 is Final Girl Wave 2. Happy New Year to you and your family! Wishing you good things for your gaming and your channel in 2023.

[@RollingSolo]

Love seeing this kind of a comment! Thanks for sharing your favs. It’s very cool to see the similar stuff we enjoy and the differences. Everyone has different takes and perspectives. Makes the hobby as great as it is. All the best in 2023 and thanks for the support. 🎉

[@ekbo6190]

Great stream! Danke for the new insights :)

Happy to help! Plan to do another soon.

[@jamesbrazeal3847]

Loved this recap. Love hearing about unbelievably great solo games. But I must admit Serenity was a highlight and name dropping Uncel Rod (The Rodney Smith) of Watch it Played. PURE GOLD

She’s stole the show for sure! 😄 Yep, gaming runs in the family for sure. 😜

She did? Didnt hear that... Didnt know Rodney is her uncle, wow, what an awesome boardgame-family! I already love Canada and want to visit it again, your family makes it even more attractive. ;-)

[@RollingSolo]

@@SaschaKleiber Thanks for the kind words! :)

[@corsa180]

Thanks for the video! Re: Planet Unknown, the "storage solution" you pointed out is actually a lazy susan and a central part of the game. As such, it is included in both the Deluxe and the retail versions of the game. Planet Unknown was solidly in my top 5 games of last year, definitely check it out if you have a chance.

[@RollingSolo]

I plan to! This one slipped well past my radar somehow. 😄

[@ginovilleneuve6557]

Thanks you for the list, very cool to see how your channel has grown! keep it up!

[@RollingSolo]

Hey Gino! The passion is stronger than ever for the solo community. I’m not going anywhere. 🔥

[@kennethpaschall4801]

A fantastic list from the community. It was great to see some of my favorites from the year (Oathsworn: ItD, Massive Darkness 2, and Marvel United). I need to look further into Return to Dark Tower and Bardsung. Those both look great. Also curious about Aeon Trespass and both CTG games shown. The intermission was adorable.

[@RollingSolo]

Hey Kenneth! Appreciate all the support over the years. Glad you found some games to put on your radar. 👏🏼

[@RollingSolo]

Serenity really enjoyed being part of the video. Going to have her jump in more often!

[@Malgamus]

Awesome list and as a fellow dad, I loved Serenity’s off-the-cuff responses.

[@bryanscollick8305]

I hope you get your Hoplomachus Victorum soon as it is currently on my table and it lives up to the hype. I can’t wait to see your content!

[@RollingSolo]

I 100% know it will be a massive win for the solo community. It’s got a big following from the past and it can only be getting better with age.

[@galanu]

Great work as always Adam!!! Have a wonderful New Year.

[@RollingSolo]

You too! 🥳🎉

[@ortizlzitro]

Your daughter is so precious!! God bless her you your family😊

[@RollingSolo]

Thank you sir! She’s awesome. 😄

[@ryanbartlett672]

Good work. Thanks. Many I want to try. What jumped out the most is how the publisher made Massive Darkness 2 compatible with 1.0. Commendable.

[@RollingSolo]

Very! I was happy to see this. A nice nod to all that backed the original one for sure.

[@darinlagarry3091]

Agree about darkest dungeon. It’s the best tactical dungeon campaign game I own… a solid 9. I played a complete campaign through the level 3 boss and have been having a blast… 10 hours in.

[@RollingSolo]

Individuals who have been playing the game have been echoing similar comments. As with any review/review score...take it with a big dose of salt. haha

[@NefariousKoel]

Same. It's a great game. My only beef is with the table space footprint, especially with multiple open boxes also stacked up nearby, but that's not unusual for these big crawler games. I'm a bit challenged when it comes to consolidating the sprawl anyway.

[@SammyHoff]

I was so surprised with this game. It’s not perfect at all, but it’s just very fun to play. We’ve beat our first boss and ready to start level 2 of the campaign.

[@kevinerskine3299]

Such a fantastic year. Serenity was adorable. Definitely need of her on camera :) I can't wait to hear what you think of Victorum. I keep saying it's the gladiator game I always wanted. I really need to trade for ISS Vangard.

[@RollingSolo]

Hey Kevin! Hope all is well. 😄 I agree, it really was a great year for solo games. Gah, can’t wait for Victorum. I hope it lands when I’m not drowning in games. It’ll bring back good memories!

[@sabinebaurand471]

Awaken Realm and Chip Theory Games are incredibly good , each and every game of these two Publishers are one better then the other , and the quality and table presence are just amazing

[@RollingSolo]

They’re consistent for sure! Top tier quality/production for sure.

[@guitarguy1357]

In regards to Frosthaven, I love the organization part of any board game. Currently Dwellings of Eldervale takes #1 for me in organization satisfaction.

[@RollingSolo]

Oh yah! That’s game is a production. I still need the playmat for it. It’s beautiful.

[@klikkerTV]

Finally see your face 😎 thanks for the video board game sensei! Your little girl is very lovely 🐰

[@RollingSolo]

I have a handful of videos on the channel I was in person for. Now that I have an office space (finally) that isn’t filled with game tables and clutter I plan to do in person videos more often. Should be fun! 😄

[@tonybowers9490]

Oathsworn is my #1, but haven’t got to ISS Vanguard yet, so that may change.

[@RollingSolo]

I think the two of them can 100% live within the same collection as they provide completely different gameplay and cover different themes as well. Zero overlap!

[@Stronghammer91]

Sadly, since I don’t do KS. A decent handful of these games I really wanna play. HEXplore, oathsworn and iss vanguard. Hopefully they will be hitting retail soon.

[@RollingSolo]

I’m glad to was able to put a bunch of your radar then! There will be future campaigns for a number of these based on their success. You have time to research and see what lands for you in the meantime. Check out my videos on them to help! Cheers 😄

[@JohnHoliver]

I was a bit distracted watching on the background when Serenity came up, I called my kid to watch it with me. Hope he gets to play with me in the future. =)

[@RollingSolo]

I’m sure he will! Serenity is quite happy people enjoyed seeing her on camera. She’ll make another appearance soon for sure!

Oooo nice! I’ve only heard good things from people that have played it too. I’m holding onto it.

[@michaelmueller260]

An excellent list! Thanks for calling out the childish clowns throwing temper tantrums on the BGG ratings. Frankly, it's pathetic. I personally didn't care at all for Massive Darkness 2 (rated it a 5), and I'm completely done with anything zombicide or marvel (let alone the combination), but that's just my personal tastes. I'm not going to go crush them on BGG because they don't fit me personally.

[@RollingSolo]

Thank you! I just don’t feel it’s fair for logistics to enter the review space of the product (game box and everything in it). It’s something that’s creeped into BGG review for the longest time but has nothing to do with the designers, artists, writers etc. In other words the game box itself and the experience within which is what that review score focuses on. I know that 6.6 for DD is not where it deserves to be based on early review bombs. But I also know that as the game lands more and more that review score is going to start going up. Grievances around logistics, logistics communication and shipping should stay on the campaign pages and communication directly with the publisher. The creators of the game itself shouldn’t be taking the damage for something outside their control. A lot of people don’t understand the separation and just consider it all part of the equation to get it to their doorstep. MD2 didn’t land for everyone and it’s on the lighter side compared to other dungeon crawlers out there. I think for their efforts to take a soulless MD1 and bring it into a better MD2 system was a solid move. The game has improved and is now what people were hoping for from the first one. Even with that, it might not be everyone’s cup of tea which is totally fair. 😄 Rating a game whatever score you want after playing the game is the rationale approach. I have zero respect for people that review on a site before receiving a game positive or negative. There’s no logic in it. It’s childish. I’m hoping one day BGG takes all reviews prior to a game release and literally deletes all of them the moment the game actually begins release within a given month. That would clear out all the initial garbage review scores. After that if a person review bombs without playing it, well…you can’t totally stop irrational people but you you can dampen their minor impact lol All the best in the New Year my friend! 🥳🤩

[@wildcraftadventures1776]

Alright Adam, I’m coming over. Your daughter said we can come play some games with ya’ll lol 😂

[@wildcraftadventures1776]

Haha 😂 Loved the plug in with Serenity. Reminds me of my little girl.

[@1AngelAlita]

Nemesis? I would never play this solo, LOL. The game is all about the tension of the semi-coop...

[@RollingSolo]

You’d be surprised how fun the comic campaign and solo play is if you give it a shot. The games still shines this way. Only element missing is the traitor aspect. The game is great at all player counts for different reasons.

[@1AngelAlita]

@@RollingSolo Thanks. I'm still not convinced but maybe I'll give solo or coop a shot someday.. ;)

[@tgeorgom]

The 6.6 rate (at some point was even lower) of Darkest Dungeon is due to the issue with extra payments and people wanted to punish Mythic Games. So there are a lot of 1 rates that have nothing to do with the game itself.

[@tgeorgom]

oh, you mentioned it! Thank you for the comment

[@RollingSolo]

Yep! That’s exactly what I was referring to. Logistics aren’t part of a review score of a game. The review score of a game is reviewing the game, designer, artists and writers. The cost of the actual game is certainly valid in a review. The cost of shipping is not.

[@current9300]

Bullet Heart and Bullet Star are mechanically identical (and both can be combined for 8 player game) so I'm pretty sure that higher user rating of Star is more due to fans of Heart buying it a lot and people who didn't care much for Heart just completely skipping it, since it is exactly the same game as Heart but with a new set of characters.

[@RollingSolo]

Very very true. That’s quite common as the original can have a big impact on interest going into a second one using similar designs.

[@ACosmonaut]

I’m glad people are liking iss vanguard, but I got almost all the way through and something clicked and made me realize how much I hate the gameplay that I can’t convince myself to go back and finish. I might just go through the final couple scenarios and count every interaction as a success just to see out the story. I’m just waiting on wave 2 to ship so I can sell it. The story is no doubt compelling, but the whole dice system, the landings, everything about the gameplay feels prohibitive and bad to me and devoid of interesting decisions. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed the ship phase, though. Even though it only had a marginally larger decision space, I found the process satisfying each time.

[@RollingSolo]

Thanks for your thoughts on Vanguard. Always good to hear different takes! What else did you enjoy this year?

[@JohnHoliver]

I need to swim against the flow and say that I'm totally surprised to see Hoplomachus in #3. 1) Bc I got it in Essen, gave it 10h (one campaign) and I did not like it, so much that I already flipped it. I got Mage Knight in the same breath and I think whenever I could pull Hoplo I'd rather spend my time with Mage Knight instead. 2) Bc I was under the impression many ppl didn't got it yet, am I wrong? I'm not following fulfilment closely, since I didn't back it, but I thought the store availability would be somewhere in January. Maybe some backers have already received. I've put same 10h in Aeon Trespass: Odyssey and my time was incomparable more pleasurable.

[@RollingSolo]

All good! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. These games will all land on different spots for everyone. Ya, not everyone has gotten Hoplomachus yet. Me included. Delivery on that one was quite the ball drop. Sounds like things are moving for people waiting though. Great to hear you’re enjoying ATO. Such a beautiful production!

[@twiztidnoodle]

Super cute. Next gen of gamers much love

[@RollingSolo]

Thanks for watching! 😄👍🏼

[@bahasainggeris7884]

I'm constantly amazed that people think the BGG rating is a rating of how good the game is. The BGG rating IS and always was intended to indicate how much you want to play the game, NOT how good you think the game is. I agree people shouldn't trash (or praise) a game without reason, but people tend to be jerks.

[@RollingSolo]

Yep, it’s not a true review score reflection. It’s close enough as there’s nothing better.

[@theoven344]

I think there is a real problem to certify that almost all the games in your Top ten cost at least 150-200 bucks. IMHO the world of board gaming is completely running amok...

[@RollingSolo]

Hey! The list was created by my community based on their voting. These are the games which released this year which are the most popular. There’s also a whole bunch of games under the $75 mark in this list as well. It’s a nice blend of both.

@@RollingSolo Dont get me wrong, i would probably love to play ISS Vanguard (100 dollars for the core game only + shipping), Frosthaven (same), Burncycle (150), Aeon Trespass (300), Nemesis (200), Massive darkness 2... but i just cant afford it, especially if i plan to play them solo...

[@akira2512]

Where is THE #1 solo game of 2022? Final Girl (Wave 2)...

Final Girl didn’t originally land in 2022. As we’re focused on core boxes which released for the first time in 2022, Final Girl was top of the charts from my videos for last year. Check them out! Certainly doesn’t take away from how amazing a solo game it is!

People have a right to their opinion on a game whether or not someone likes it or not. Censoring someone's opinion based on what you think is more incorrect.

[@RollingSolo]

I don’t believe in censoring at all actually. I believe in adults realizing that review bombing the designers/artists/writers game on BGG because they’re upset about logistics issues from a crowdfunding campaign is not part of a review score on a game on a review site. Those outside grievances stay on the crowdfunding platform or directly to the publisher. Giving a low review score of the game prior to playing it or it’s release is just childish. Put yourself in the designer/artists/writers shoes and think about how you’d feel about people throwing negative reviews on your game based on how it shipped. They’re not related.

[@BobGarrett66]

@RollingSolo Well Adam it’s been a while since I’ve been able to watch a video of yours. I was a very early subscriber to your channel. That said, I am one of the “childish people” who have invested over $400 with Mythic Games for Darkest Dungeon and was not willing to provide them with additional funding. This was not just a logistics issue due to covid. The game was significantly delayed in production to begin with and had it been completed and dispensed to backers even close to when it was supposed to have been, there wouldn’t have been a need to demand additional shipping. I have backed a LOT of Kickstarter games and there were several that I backed around the time of Darkest Dungeon. NOT ONE of those companies asked me for an additional dime to ship me my game. Some of them were also later getting them completed. Again, NOT ONE asked me for a dime. The mismanagement associated with Mythic Games and their products is beyond ridiculous and the fact that many people decided to voice their opinion though a rating on Boardgamegeek is ENTIRELY their prerogative!!! I must admit that I was a little surprised at your comments about people expressing their dissatisfaction with not receiving a product that we ALL spent our hard earned money on and in good faith provided this company with the funding so they could manufacture the game in the first place. You are entitled to your opinion, just like all of us “childish jerks” are entitled to express our opinions by rating a game and it’s deployable company as we see fit. I don’t recall making any comments on the Kickstarter platform about the people who paid the ransom money for shipping, but you felt the need to make a comment on KZbin about those who rated the game for what they felt it deserved. Your channel, you can certainly do with it what you want. Just remember that those of us who live in a free society have every right to voice our opinions about an inept company as we see fit, preferably without being judged by you. Like I said, I don’t think you were outwardly judged for paying the ransom. Four hundred dollars wasted certainly gives me the right to rate a game however I choose!!
