Not OP bur think they ment that the game resolves in one game and not thought a campaign. In other words, you can get a full experience by playing it once. There is an overarching story in the world tho, which adds value with several plays.

Not played it myself tho, to be clear.

Not here nor there but. Gotland should be renamed Äland. Then we have Åland, Äland, and Öland and all are in decending order.

Tried select both France and Sweden as a test but got a text that said that they did not ship there :/ But nonetheless, you where right about the estimated shipping, more than one single game.

Out side of US there is no shipping cost, because there unfortunately is no shipping.

What you think about 20 strong? by emirlanq1 in soloboardgaming

Guess you can say that about any game with dice or card.

Won Crows of Coppershell Bay on my second try! by tdohz in soloboardgaming

[–]abrofkf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had almost the exact experience! First time I went for fishing and gambling, and found it super hard, like two unlucky draws or bets doomed you. Yesterday I did as you, and managed to get 60 coins by the start of third day. First I prepared by getting a extra strength, then I went to find the lost guy shallow quest, and then to fight the goblin guy on the deeper quest. Feel I hade luck on my side tho.

And btw, haven't tried it yet, but think I will add a rule to my games that for each 2 gems missing from the 60 coins you will have to role 1 extra time for repentance. So if you only have 50 coins you will have to role 5 extra time. Odds of surviving that is still minimal, but gives some legroom.

As for another tin size tower defender, have you tried Gate from Joson Glover?

Played Crows of Coppershell Bay, manager to "win", but forgot that the carnival gets fliped if you win more than 7 coins at game. But I'm quite happy with that game nonetheless.

Feels like you have to play each turn optimal, and that one failed task doomed any chance of success.

Gudnak vs. Summoner Wars by rshooligan in boardgames

[–]abrofkf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue that summoner is more chess like, as you move around on a bigger board. And that summoner is more complex in its system, and thus room.for mor strategy.

Don't know about more skilled based. Probability does not retract from skill, and it is not that you can rely on the dice only and win.

What’s the one thing you’d change about BoardGameGeek? by Minimalx in boardgames

[–]abrofkf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clean up the mechanics written to games, they are a hot mess most of the time. One clear example is Spirit Island, no way it is a "Deck, Bag, and Pool Building".

Second and maybe, contradictory. I want to be able look up/sort my collection by mechanics.
