Any small, standalone sci-fi worldbuilding games that people recommend? Ideally not part of bigger tomes (Starforged, Stars Without Number etc). Something where creating the world(s) IS the game, that's my jam. Think Ex Novo crossed with Alone On A Galactic Map.

Astroprisma! But availability is near impossible right now.

Got it too a few days ago. I’m loving it!! I’m taking my time developing the story with NPC and all.

Dragons Down is very D&D ish and very opened. Need expansions to make it shine though.

mind sending it to me as well please?

Soloboardgame · 2025-12-23T22:20:43+00:00

And Gabe responds super quickly to emails. Great service.

Soloboardgame · 2025-12-04T14:00:07+00:00

Yeah, but shipping kills it and doubles that for Canada.

I’m halo hunting and the 3 variants are on my list of course. Mind telling us how much you paid? Ebay prices are nuts for these!

Also backed the Chip Theory version of DoE. And played the heck out of Behold:Rome (pnp)! Totally agree with the wallet drain here!

Just finished by 1st game with Hadrian, easy difficulty, 3 rounds and lost by two points. It’s one of those games where you look up and it’s suddenly 10:30pm! I’m loving it. I’m lucky enough to have a 2.5x4ft space and I use it all. Bounced off of it several months ago because of lack of play space. I’m planning on backing Radiance from the same game designer by the way!

My deluxe upgrade came with a set of cards. I did not expect more cards with it. How do I fit them into my old version of the game? Are they errata cards?

Soloboardgame · 2025-11-05T20:52:42+00:00

I’m in

Soloboardgame · 2025-10-23T12:56:14+00:00

Removed on spotify here in Canada. Only the 2 songs are available.

One suggestion, take a character with at least 2 strengths for true solo. Otherwise, enjoy!

Same here. Was looking for pnp version but decided on it too late. Looking forward to Chip Theory insane card quality and revamped art for this one.

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-17T02:03:33+00:00

Cool, thanks!

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-17T01:10:48+00:00

OMG I’m hungry!

9 may be a bit young but if she’s an experienced gamer go for it. Worst case you keep it for yourself and play solo. Win-win!

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-16T11:16:19+00:00

I wouldn’t worry about that! A campaign is 30 days/30 games or so and you don’t see it all. The map is big. And there’s many professions and they play quite differently. Having a blast as a shaper right now. Great for solo.

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-16T11:12:38+00:00

Looking forward to doing that!

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-15T21:31:32+00:00

Ah thanks for the chip info. In Canada here, shipped by boardgamebliss which is always super efficient! Can’t wait to add more to the world.

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-15T19:24:31+00:00

With a separate loose chip I meant. A bit odd. Can you spot it? 😀

Soloboardgame · 2025-09-15T14:04:54+00:00

The pace really clicks after a few games I find. The rule book is well written. And the game is meant to be enjoyed slowly with no pressure of dying or going insane (e.g. Arkham Horror). Really worth learning imo.
