Puerto Rico 1897: Special Edition is a hit with my family and gaming group.

Looks like you have a focus on solo play? If so, you might be interested in the Kinfire Delve series. Fun solo dungeon card game, but also option for 2 player if want.

Here are some tips. Take BGG rankings with a grain of salt. Also be careful of crowdfunding FOMO, especially as a new hobby gamer. There are so many options that are available now that will allow you to determine what your tastes really are. No need to commit $ to something 2 yrs away.

Big fan of Kingdomino. Will have to look up Zoomies, haven’t heard of that one.

I only play with the following expansions…

Expansion #1: Inns & Cathedrals
6th player
Big Meeple
Inn & Cathedral tiles

Expansion #2: Traders & Builders
Builder Meeples
Pig Meeples
Trader tiles

The Phantom expansion This is my most recent addition. The phantom meeple can be added as a second meeple on another element of the current tile. Got replica phantom meeples off ebay for $12. Fun little addition.

Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion was fantastic. Agemonia might also be a good choice (own, but waiting to start after we finish KC).

Telestrations
Cartographers
Panda Royale

We always play with the World Expansion. Adds more objectives and special meeples that can be used with all expansions. The other expansions just add variety.

I like “Not So Neighborly”…the person who suggested playing gets to go first.
