"Great components and interesting gameplay. The solo AI for the demon works really well and is easy enough to implement! Very fun game!" [SGOYT]
2016-08-17
"Pretty good bot if you're up to managing two at a time which may not be an issue with COIN solo players :) Probably needs some playtest with people completely fresh to it as opposed to me having so…" [SGOYT]

"Awesome squad tactical combat system. Can't wait to upgrade to 2nd edition and get a hold of the Solo Expansion." [SGOYT]
2016-08-26
"As a first impression it looks very promising. Lots of decisions, easy to learn and very little bookeeping. I liked the pace of the game and had a great time. With different levels of increasing comp…" [SGOYT]

"Elevenses: Fast and cute solo game, but ultimately nothing there to draw me in. Bowling: Great game, cute cards, but still prefer my counter draw variant. BS should have top billing." [SGOYT]
2016-08-22
"Fun farming and exporting ones own way. Definitely one of Uwe's best solo-able games." [SGOYT]
2016-08-18
"What a jolly game - jolly thematic, jolly easy to pick up, jolly fun and jolly open." [SGOYT]
2016-08-21
"Who knew a little card game with below average art and a simple design could be so entertaining? Well, just about the entire solitare gaming community. Now I too know what all the fuss is about!" [SGOYT]

"Good game. Smooth playing with interesting decisions throughout" [SGOYT]
2016-08-27
"Great tactical minis game with an interesting campaign. Has a bit of a learning curve, but not horrible." [SGOYT]
2016-08-31
"Lovely puzzle. Fast to setup, easy to play but hard to crack that 30 mark. Every game feels different with so many tiles." [SGOYT]
2016-08-28
"First impression. Fast and brilliant gameplay. Wonderful components and lots of replay value. Brain-burning puzzle at its best." [SGOYT]

"Tense, nervey struggles between short term and long term game in every round of this little boxed hand management game with plenty of variety in the various abductor packs - love it." [SGOYT]

"A great thematic solitaire game from VPG - great components, variability, puzzly gameplay. I definitely feel like a scientist when I play this." [SGOYT]
2016-08-26
"Very well designed and fun game. Looking forward to exploring it more. Solo is no issue, great game." [SGOYT]
2016-08-29
"Ion's for the win. It's good that there are multiple viable ways of completing missions. Very Hard is definitely a challenge." [SGOYT]
2016-08-18
"A KEEPER. Resource management, space exploration, missions. What's not to like?" [SGOYT]

"My card draw decks finally meet their match in the Return to Mirkwood." [SGOYT]

"My saga comes to a conclusion as the final villain is struck down." [SGOYT]
2016-08-27
"A nice game about managing a garden, but without lots of fancy little bits." [SGOYT]
2016-08-14
"Solo vs. AI deck: Nice AI system for revealed and unrevealed enemy. Only available as part of larger KS add-on (need to fix that!)" [SGOYT]
2016-08-02
"Fun to play solo in the two player mode. Card draws and effects keep things interesting" [SGOYT]

"Great first game. Automa runs smooth and feels quite a lot like playing against a human opponent. So far I would recommend it just to play solo. Great components too." [SGOYT]

"A true asymmetrical design with tons of replay value and several solo options. Lots of rules to learn, but absolutely worth the effort." [SGOYT]
2016-09-01
"Really like this war themed economic game. Need to try the official solo rules" [SGOYT]
