Hi all!

I LOVE board games but don't have a lot of people to play with. What are some good games that are either solo only or are able to be played solo? Open to all suggestions!

I'm surprised that I haven't seen Spirit Island mentioned here yet. It's a fully coop game from 1-6 players (depending on expansions).

With 1 player there are some small game rule adjustments -- or you can play 2-handed. Either way, there is a ton of replay value.

There is also an official digital adaptation by Handelabra, and the scripted Tabletop Simulator mod is perhaps one of the best examples of what a TTS mod could be. Worth checking out.

Full disclosure: I'm a credited playtester for two Spirit Island expansions and have contributed code towards the TTS mod.
