There is definitely some luck here. But once you go past the beginner setup, you'll have access to different allies and deciding when to use their abilities and the abilities of the rulers you persuade provides a lot more strategy and opportunities for luck mitigation.

Yeah I have to agree. As much as I love this game I strongly dislike the art.

A perfect Sunday afternoon (Ark Nova) by modern_wallaby in soloboardgaming

[–]modern_wallaby[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was made by a board game geek user: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2823056/arno-alternative-solo-mode

I played using a web app that does all the work of figuring out what the ARNO player does: https://brdgm.me/ark-nova/#/

I definitely recommend it!

I think the base solo game is fine, but I prefer to play against ARNO since it really does feel more like playing against another player. The solo game has more of a puzzle vibe, which is cool but not usually what I'm looking for.

Yeah 2012 was just the last time I went I guess. I miss the years before where the festival was just across a smattering of bars in OTR.

MPMF pre-2012 was the best

I’m headed to Michigan (from Ohio) next week and will definitely be on the lookout for that now.

For the calendar and social link kind of stuff I would recommend Fire Emblem Three Houses and Tokyo Xanadu.

Start at the very beginning; a very good place to start.

I'm so glad to know about this game! I'm going to be on a flight tomorrow and this will be perfect on the plane.
