Thanks for putting Final Girl on your list! Loved hearing about your experience with it!!
Thank you so much!!! Final Girl has really had a great impact on my boardgame life!!!! I'm honoured that you've watched this 🥰☺️
Great video. You can ramble about boardgames to your heart's desire. We have only one game in common but it's a great to know new games. Probably I'll play a couple in BGA. Thanks for your 10 (more or less) solo boardgames list.
Thank you for watching!! I hope you'll enjoy playing them on BGA it's such a great way to try new games.
Great list! Sleeping Gods (the original) is such a masterpiece of the narrative adventure genre. Distant Skies reduces the complexity and eliminates some of the more fiddly bits but puts the story more "on rails", Primeval Peril even more so. But I think neither of the sequels compares to the scope, limitless feeling, and open adventure of the original. Still, Red Raven has something to offer to each gamer's style in the SG universe.
@@kurt-the-viking thanks so much for letting me know!!! I'll definitely need to play the main game more!! I'm very excited about it
Just saw your video being reccomended and being a mostly solo player had to watch it. Love your enthusiasm about board games and taste and I'm looking forward to your future playthroughs of Obsession and Under Falling Skies. Will check out many of your playthrough videos starting with Calico.which has been on my radar for quite some time. Very easy subscription.
Thank you so much! I can't wait to film playthroughs of Obsession and Under Falling Skies!! It'll be fun fore sure
Great list of games! Final Girl is an all time favorite of mine. Can't wait for Series 3!
Same!!! I'm so excited for the last of us inspired one that's coming in season 3 😱❤️
Great list, I just subscribed and look forward to more of your videos. Cheers 😎
Thank you so much 🥰
Great list 🥰
Glad to have found your channel 🎉
Thank you 🥰
We have very similar taste! Absolutely love Calico, Three Sisters and Mycelia. In my mind Farmer Edith isn't actually mean, she's just (really badly) trying to help. I see her as the pesky but nice neighbour overwatering my plants when I'm away. 😂
hahahahha that is such a great way to look at it. She's just trying her best
Here before 1000 subscribers, I'm sure the channel will grow a lot, the videos are such a high quality! best of lucks!
Thank you so much!!
great video and great list. great lighting, i like the corner shelves with the books. very calm and peaceful setting for a video.
i thought Eila and Something Shiny or Calico was going to be your #1. I was close! I don't have Eila or Obsession but i hear good things about them. i need to pick them up. If they are good enough for Crimsonboardgames, they are good enough for me! lol continued success to you and your channel
Thank you!!! You should definitely check them out they're amazing games!!!
Awesome list! I’ve gotten into solo board gaming recently, as I have such a busy schedule that it’s hard to sync up a game night with my people. Also, I love solo gaming between my grad school work as a break. I am looking forward to checking out some of the games on your list. Thank you from Los Angeles, California ☀️🌴
Thank you!! I'm so glad I discovered solo gaming as well it really was an eye opener for me!! I hope you'll like the games you try 🥰🥰
Thanks for the great top 10. Can't wait for your video about obsession. At the top of my wishlist. And I love to see a video voor French Quarter, curious for the gameplay, for that game too.
Yes I really want to play French Quarter for the channel too!! So many videos to make haha it'll all happen at some point.
Love how you talked about farmer Edith at 14:40 !! She is very mean indeed!!
Haha thank you!! She's the worst 😂
Wow this video was great! This is my first time finding this channel. I have enjoyed many of the games in your top ten. I do agree Farmer Edith is soooooo mean LOL.
Yay I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! Farmer Edith is the worst haha
Great video! I’m mainly a dungeon crawler player but may try some of these games.
I hope you enjoy them!! I really want to play more dungeon crawler style games!!
Lovely video and you have a great taste in games! I need to get my hands on Final Girl and Calico😅 Now I'm very curious about your top 10 games!!
Thank you!! You should definitely try Final Girl and Calico!! I'm sure you would love them
I like Ruins of Arnak and Obsession as well. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing games!!! 🥰
Great list! We have a lot of similar tastes for solo games for sure! :)
Omg thank you!!!! That's so amazing to hear!! I love your videos and am a great admirer ☺️
For Lost Ruins of Arnak. The expedition leaders expansion is a must (especially for multiplayer). But even in solo it’ll provide different ways to solve the puzzle of the game. And the newest missing expedition expansion has a 6 game campaign where games have some specific goals rather than just score as much as you can. Honestly both are gonna improve your solo experience.
Oh fun!! I especially like the sounds of the campaign expansion!!
Great list, we have similar taste! I love the thematic juxtaposition between your no.1 and no.2 games 😂 I’m also a big horror fan and have said the same thing about Final Girl - that it was made just for me 😁
Amazing!! Yeah there is definitely a jump between Final Girl and Calico hahaha
Obsession has been at the top of my wishlist for so long but I just never come across it. And you convinced me that I need to give Calico a try.
Yeah Obsession is a hard game to find!! I'm sure you would love Calico!! It's honestly such a great game 🥹❤️
I have only ever seen it at the designers website, where the game and expansions always seem to be in stock.

Glad to see Calico solo getting some love !
I love it, but i love it even more with the digital version (on steam) it's such an amazing adaptaiton ! So cozzy and relaxing to play ! (with the zen musics)
I also love Cascadia in Solo. Really cute and cozzy to play.
And here are some other i quite love in solo :
Warp's Edge
Street Masters
Marvel Champions & Lord of the rings LCGS
Astro Knights
Raiders of Scythia
After Us
Heat
Bullet (Heart)
Dune Imperium (digital Steam Version)
Cheers from Belgium ;)
Yes the digital version is so cute I play it on steam!! Cascadia is definitely also a favourite, I really have to make a video of that one as well!!
Amazing recommendations thank you so much 😍😍
I'm not very good at Cafe either, but for some reason it's one of my favorite small solo games. I do use some pricey Century Spice Road upgraded spice/bean bags from Top Shelf Gamer in place of the cubes, which does enhance the play for me. The coffee theme doesn't hurt, either!
Oohhh that sounds like such a great upgrade!!! I'm going to check it out!
Great top 10. I really need to try Calico. I have heard great reviews
It's honestly so good!! I hope you'll enjoy it 😍
Thanks for a great top 10! I was very close at buying Eila And Something Shiny the other day when I saw it at my FLGS. Your video of the game really presented it well - but unfortunately it was a bit pricey (87 EUR) and I have sooo many other games still unplaying; Lost Ruins of Arnak being one of them :)
Yeah it's definitely a pricey game sadly! And Arnak is soooo good you should try it soon!!
hoihoi, voor het eerst één van je video's tegengekomen en leuke lijst! Ben ook zeer benieuwd naar Kinfire Delve, maar is helaas vaak uitverkocht op het moment dat ik wat wil bestellen.
Ja ik had echt super veel geluk dat ik mijn local game store binnenliep en daar stond hij gewoon!! De verkoper zei ook dat ze heel snel gingen!!
what a great list... btw did u know the digital version of calico adds loads of extra challenges and even a story mode... Stay Hexy!
Yes!!! I have it on steam and it's so fun!!!
I love Final Girl ❤
It's the best!!!!
Greetings from Indonesia, being from Belgium but living in Indonesia... Discovered your channel through this nice video and subscribed! Totally agree with café, under falling skies, three sisters (next year with expansion)... You also already tried some Button Shy solo games? Success with the channel 🙏🙂
Thank you so much!!! I'm really want to try button shy games but they're not easy to get over here in the Netherlands. But it'll definitely happen at some point!!
@@Crimsonboardgames don't worry, you will get Button Shy games to the Netherlands... They were used to send them to my address in Belgium, and now even I get them without any problem on my address in Indonesia. If you mail them they'll help you out. Michelle from Button Shy games is very helpful! Much success 🙏🙂
@@hanslamal5632 omg thank you so much!! I'll contact them!!
Love three sisters, but no Hadrian's Wall. The upcoming sequel is my most anticipated game.
I really want hadrian's wall!! I think I would really enjoy it! I have played it on BGA, but it doesn't feel as satisfying as I think the game will feel irl.
For Arnak get both expansions. Leaders is great and Missing Expeditions is a brilliant campaign mode (which I only play solo).
That both sounds really good!! I'm definitely intrigued by the campaign option!!
Oh my. I have to recommend you to play Expeditions (stonemaier games). It’s fantastic solo. It really is
Oh really!!! I'd definitely love to try that one. I've played Scythe and have enjoyed it but not loved it!!
This video has sold me on trying Ila and Something Shiny.
Yay I'm so glad!!!! It's honestly an amazing game😍
@@Crimsonboardgames And I legitimately hadn't heard of it before either. Looking forward to it.
@@wanderlking8634 that's awesome!! I'm so glad I introduced you to a new game 🥰
There are actually two games that are Kinfire Delve - if you liked one, you should maybe look into trying the other one as well.
Yes I really want to try the other one!! And there's a third one coming as well so I'll probably end up getting all of them 😂
Because you liked Falling Skies, I would recommend to try this: Warp's Edge. It is similar (solo only), but has a unique twist which makes it at times better than Falling Skies (at least to me)
Ooohhh that sounds perfect!! I'll check it out thank you 🤗
Thanks for the video and the list. I know it's a lot of work to talk this much in free form. And no, it was not rambling.
Thank you so much!! I'm glad it didn't sound rambly!! It was very fun to film but indeed quite a bit of work🤗
Hiiii , I’m pretty impressed about your list , there is no Arkham horror or marvel champions type on the list , I loved that 99% is about euros. If I could mention a game, I would recommend White Castle , it’s has a wonderful solo mode.
Omg yes I really want to play the Arkham horror LCG but it's a little scary! I also really want to try White Castle!! That will definitely happen at some point!!
@@Crimsonboardgames I love tainted grail , those lcgs and mage knight rs
@@odirpinheiro47 awesome!! I can't wait to play it at some point
Just having you as an audio on the background... my mind stops at " I'm not even sure how to pronounce that in English " ... i was like ... whaaaat ??? i though i saw a room full of games and books in english .. checking the picture .. just to make sure .. wondering where you're from .. so i spotted one book there and without using the google ..i will take a guess : Netherlands ??? next time .. just don't worry about it :)
Hahaha thank you so much!! I'm really glad to hear that my accent isn't that bad. I am indeed Dutch!!
damn, when are you invinting me over so you don't have to play solo anymore
Haha I luckily often play with friends as well but I love playing solo. It's just amazing to whip out a game and play whenever I want!! In the morning with a cup of coffee or in the evening after a day of work. It's the best❤️❤️
I choose not to watch videos which don't include game titles along with the timestamps. I'm sure I would enjoy your content, but this feels like clickbait. Maybe someone could include the titles in a comment.
Thanks for the tip! I didn't even think about that. I can definitely add the titles.
@@Crimsonboardgames Thank you! I'll be back for sure!
