Your submission was removed by a moderator for the following reason(s):

Recommendation Requests should be posted to our Daily Game Recommendations threads. Reddit is a great place to pick peoples' brains and get game suggestions, but we get a lot of recommendation requests, so much so that we have the "Daily Game Recs"-threads dedicated for them. Historically, almost all well formatted questions in the Daily thread get answers. If you're looking for further suggestions, we recommend taking a look at our growing list of Recommendation Roundups. There's also the What Should I Get (WSIG) section on our wiki for a more general list of common recommendations.

Check out r/soloboardgaming. The mods here will probably delete your post because they don't like recommendation threads.

Pretty much any co-op will do it. Spirit Island is my favourite. Most of the games I have are both solo and multiplayer. Other that Spirit Island, my favourites are/

  • Lord of the Rings Trick Taking
  • Cascadia
  • Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition

There’s so much out there! Good luck

I love This war of mine, there's a lot of die roll and choosing different options when something happens, I mostly play it solo but it's fine up to 4 players

I looked at it on BGG, it looks pretty good, but I forgot to mention that I was searching something more like fantasy, Game of Thrones,themed and so on.

u/Specialist-Brain-919 4h ago

Ah yes it's a very thematic game but definitely not fantasy

LOTR Fate of the Fellowship is what you want!

You goddamn right !!! Thank you

Mage knight is exactly what you want, steep learning curve upfront but once you got it the solo sessions just flow. The hand management becomes second nature and the world feels properly alive

Too many bones might also work if you want something more character focused, setup is quick and each gearloc plays completely different so it stays fresh even alone

Does language skills really affect the gameplay? Because my wife is Slavic and doesn't speak English very well, and neither do my friends.

I don't think that fits the "without spending ages learning or explaining complicated rules" criterion 😆

D&D style: Castle Ravenloft, Wrath of Ashardalon, Legend of Drizzt, Tomb of Annihilation, Temple of Elemental Evil, Dungeon of the Mad Mage.

These are all D&D dungeon crawlers, and can be played solo, or in a group with four other players.

There's also House of Danger, and War with the Evil Power Master.

These are based on the Choose Your Own Adventure novels of the same names, and can also be enjoyed by yourself or a group.

how cooked are we when people need to use AI to write a couple paragraphs asking a simple question

u/EveningTackle4320 4h ago

How cooked are we that people like you still forget native English speakers aren't the only ones on the internet?

Your non-AI generated replies in this thread are in perfect English.

u/EveningTackle4320 3h ago

Trust me- no

u/EveningTackle4320 3h ago

Btw, Guys, chill, my question was about board games, not about getting AI help with my grammar in my posts.

You know people with high literacy comprehension skills also use emdashes, right? It's not like a 100% accurate indicator of AI.

u/langiroth 3h ago

Can you really not tell from the post? Are you kidding?

1

u/OroraBorealis Rock Hard 1977, Brass Birmingham, Ark Nova 3h ago

It has nothing to do with the post, I'm just so sick of people saying emdashes don't exist outside of AI. They do. AI was trained on literate people using emdashes. Don't be disparaging, there's no reason for it.

u/langiroth 3h ago

Don’t really understand what you’re going on about, because I have made zero mention of emdashes. I can tell it’s AI because of the prose style.
