What’s your favorite solos, overall?
There is a separate thread for discussing lightweight specifically, so I’m creating this thread in addition :)

For me it’d be Spirit Island. A bit of a brain heater, and I love it.
Also Sentinels of the multiverse DE. Really fun one, can’t wait for expansions

    A Feast For Odin and Fields of Arle. Both are cozy Uwe worker placement games. I go for them when I want to tinker around with stuff.

    A more recent (to me) favorite is Newton. The drab theme hides a really cool euro. Actions are card driven and it uses the sort of deckbuilding that’s familiar from Concordia and Faiyum with the added twist that you have to permanently tuck one of your cards at the end of each round, turning it from a playable card into an ongoing boost. I love exploring different ways to win and the way the boards interact. The solo is super smooth too, no rule changes, only some minor setup differences.

    I really like the idea of Spirit Island but even after a bunch of tries it still breaks my brain. But I will keep at it! I’ve picked up the digital version to practice with.
