Always alone... the definitive list of single player games.
|
|
|
I frequently see questions asked about what games can be played with just a single player, and while there have been several other lists created for this purpose, I aim to make this the definitive list. Please add any games I may have missed.The two questions I always ask when looking at games are; "What's this about?" and, "Is this solitaire only, or can I play it with others?" To answer these questions, I have listed a brief summary of each game (stolen from the game's page) and listed the number of players supported. All comments are welcome and appreciated.

From The Rio Grande web site:
This first expansion for Race for the Galaxy adds cards, a 5th player, and other ways to expand your universe.
The designer will be releasing more details about this expansion closer to the release date. The information that is known is summarized by the designer.
Each expansion adds one more player, more cards, plus some goodies besides cards.
The first expansion includes solitaire rules. It also includes some blank cards and a contest card for players to submit a card idea to RGG. Two slots have been left open in the second expansion for the winners.

Quote: In Agricola, you're a farmer in a wooden shack with your spouse and little else. On a turn, you get to take only two actions, one for you and one for the spouse, from all the possibilities you'll find on a farm: collecting clay, wood or stone; building fences; and so on. You might think about having kids in order to get more work accomplished, but first you need to expand your house. And what are you going to feed all the little rugrats? |

Retro is a tactical World War II infantry combat variant rules set. Gamers may utilize these rules and the components of Avalon Hill's Squad Leader, Advanced Squad Leader, or other popular tactical wargames to recreate World War II battles in a simplified, playable format. Though Retro enables you to make use of SL and ASL components and modules, it is not endorsed nor authorized by Avalon Hill or other publishers. Retro should be viewed as an unoffical variant to these fine games, and presumes that players own official modules and rules. |
