Hey! In the "small box" category, I would personally recommend "Star Realms Frontiers". Deck-building dueling card game that can be played solo. Frontiers has 8 bosses to play solo against. It is very fun and fast
Great list guys, I especially liked the fact that I haven't heard of almost half of the games on your list. Thanks to you I have added quite a few new games to my wish list 😁👍 My favourite solo game right now is probably Mage Knight or Gloomhaven (yes, I seem to be predictable too). I am glad to see the Ratcatcher on your list, my pledge has not arrived yet but I am very much looking forward to playing it.
Orchard is awesome. Squire for Hire is in the same vein and even smaller but fantastic in its own regards. Also Palm Island is a lot of fun and can even be played without a table, entirely in your hand (hence the name)
I’ve been playing, not a board game, but a book game recently. If you like pen & paper rpg type games, but want something solo, check out the Storymaster’s Tales books by Oliver McNeil
Great that you got to categorized them : *Small game - spaceshiped for me by button shy games * euro game - feudalia cuz I hate vp based game I love the campaign there instead * war games - don't like a real history war game so I guess I'll just pick any other fantasy beat the boss game like God of War I guess it has the word war in it hahah * wild card - after the virus, from the creator of TM people just don't talk about it so much and I hate that they don't know about this awesome game! * campaign/story - hero realms so much to see and do with cards only * heavy - I guess Blight chronicles agent decker then it is really heavy litterly haha
I appreciate the effort, but unfortunately most of these games depend on the luck of rolling dice... so, not for me... but I didn't know that Le Havre have a solo mode... I will look into that!
Hey guys! Just found your channel and really love your content. 🙏 One wish for future top-list videos: Show what category you are currently discussing and also the current game with a little text on screen while you talk. Keep up the good work!
For Gloomhaven there is an expansion that is solo play only and each scenario is only for the specific character class to get it's unique item. The scenario mechanics are tailored around the characters strong and weak spots. I've only done the one for Beastmaster but it was a lot of fun.

We've enjoyed Star Realms quite a lot, but yet to try Frontiers. Thanks for the suggestion Javier

There is a game called Warp’s Edge and it is solo only. It has an Edge of Tomorrow (Live. Die. Repeat.) vibe like Groundhogs Day. It’s very good!
Will take a look! Thanks for the suggestion!
My favorite solo game is one that can be played cooperative or solo, it’s called Marvel Champions
Review for it in the making. Great option especially if you love super heroes!
Best Board game channel on UA-cam.
My pick for small box game: One 👏🏻 deck 👏🏻 dungeon 👏🏻 also what on earth, ratcatcher sounds amazing :'D
Awesome pick Laura! Ratcatcher is a very funny premise, but it works great :D
The chemistry between you two is so enjoyable :-D
Gloomhaven is a good choice for heavy game. Frosthaven will be even more heavy.
Would add Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective, Chronicles of Crime and Leaving Earth.
Yes! These for sure are good additions
Orchard is awesome. Squire for Hire is in the same vein and even smaller but fantastic in its own regards. Also Palm Island is a lot of fun and can even be played without a table, entirely in your hand (hence the name)
Thanks for the suggestions!
Nice list! Onirim is another great small box solo game
Yes! It almost made our list! Really enjoyable little game
Crusoé (cru-zo-hey)
Heavy Game: Mage Knight the Boardgame. Not only my favourite solo game, but also my favourite game.
I second Mage Knight. It's amazing
I third Mage Knight. It’s fantastic.
Forth!
My #1 game of all time too
I’ve been playing, not a board game, but a book game recently.

YOU ARE BOTH AWESOME! ❤❤❤

* wild card - after the virus, from the creator of TM people just don't talk about it so much and I hate that they don't know about this awesome game!
* campaign/story - hero realms so much to see and do with cards only
* heavy - I guess Blight chronicles agent decker then it is really heavy litterly haha
Totally expected JG to break out into 'Single Ladies" . . .
Also, Kingdom Death: Monster is such a unique, mind blowing experience.
Love the sweater ❤️
Yeah spikeball is super fun!
I appreciate the effort, but unfortunately most of these games depend on the luck of rolling dice... so, not for me... but I didn't know that Le Havre have a solo mode... I will look into that!
That actually could be an interesting category for next time -> games with minimal or no luck. :)
@@BoardGameHangover oh I would be sooooo grateful! 😊🙏🏻
I was expecting Palm Island in small box category. Suprised not to see it.
Awesome pick! There are so many great games that we both can't draft all of them in one video... Will have to make another one I guess :D

Thanks for the tip.
Wait, solo list without Under falling skies is like creating all times best rock music playlist without including The Queen!
Yes! Awesome game! Have to keep something for the next video tho.. :D
Terraforming Mars is also very good
It's an amazing game and works really well solo. Have you had a chance to try out Ares Expeditions already?
Thanks, now I’M stumbling over the word(s) “post-apocalyptic”
You are very very welcome.
Spikeball!!!!!

Gloomhaven has a tons of content and plays in the regular box so we haven't even tried any of the expansions... Sound awesome tho!
Subscribed because of the love for solo games!
Lol I actually subbed for 04:47 😃
Thank you for staying with us! :D
Solo the Search for Planet X 😊
It's an awesome solo game!
Great list guys!
Thank you so much!
Ratcatcher sounds interesting, if only it were a real game!
Ahh, if only.
Sin duda, no jugaron al «Expansiópolis»
That zulus game sounds super problematic given the history lol “invaders” is interesting language
KDM for sure :D
Yeah baby!
Not into solo games because board games are about the company to me, but I’m loving that Spikeball hoodie!
Spikeball for the win!
It is only me or the video only have 360p res option?
Hmm. 4k or at least FullHD should be available to everyone
@@BoardGameHangover It is 360p for me too
The British army defending themselves against “Zulu invaders” in the African continent? Lol
Welcome to the colonialism.
What's the Together shirt about?
That was a local TEDxRIGA theme one year. About how together we can do more.
Who play alone? Just play online. BGA, YUCATA ++
There is comfort in solo analog gaming ;)
