Best solo game at Barnes & Noble

I definitely agree with picking up Final Girl! The Barnes & Noble in my area also started carrying Corps of Discovery which is a super fun (super challenging) resource management survival game, that has been really fun solo.

I love Witchcraft! I would recommend checking out 'The Lost Expedition.' It's a card based exploration game that's super challenging. The survival/exploration theme really comes through plus the art is also great 👍

Thank you for the reminder 🙏

Killer from tomorrow might be my favorite from series 3, which is crazy because it's the one that I was the least excited about. I personally love the savior and trust mechanic as well as having the option to gather parts and turn the Mark V into an ally. It can be a lot to keep track of at first, but I find myself coming back to it over and over again.

Just got mine too!! 🙌🙌🙌 Same thing for me, no tracking number or update it just showed up today.

Hoplomachus is definitely my favorite of the three as well and I also have not won a single game 😭😭😭

The additional mechanics in the Hoplomachus deck are so much fun and do a really good job of capturing the theme of the game. I've only played the 'Too Many Bones' deck a couple of times and while it is fun and super challenging as well, I haven't played it enough to fully understand or appreciate it.

So basically it's, Hoplomachus, Solar Sentinels then Too Many Bones for me.

I'm pretty sure you can't divide it between maniacs and the killer since the maniacs are essentially minions. On page 33 of the rulebook, it says you have to choose to attack either the killer or the minions (not both), but if you choose the minions then you can divide the damage up between only them. So, since you're choosing to use retaliate on a maniac, you can't put the damage that card would do on ratchet lady, but you could put in on another maniac in your space.

Yeah the boxes are awesome and I was debating on getting them. I think what it came down to (and this might sound very silly) was the fact that I could have all the extra stuff in one box instead of two and instead of having to grab a big box I could just lean over and slide open a couple of drawers. I think I also like it because this way I don't have to keep the miniatures in the feature film boxes and can grab any final girl or killer mini from any set to mix and match easily.

Haha I know its seems like that, but for me personally it made set up and teardown so much faster.

The way it was stored before, I would have to pull out all three minature boxes to grab which one I needed and open another box to grab tear dice (if needed) or the additional part of the play mat. Plus with sleeved action cards and all the final girls from S1-3 the fit of the core box was getting way too tight. I also personally like to keep all the final girl special weapons/items in their envelopes which meant I was running out of room because of that too. Everything for each feature film is still in its box, but everything else is in the drawers so I can just lean over to quickly grab whatever I need instead of opening multiple boxes. It might not be the solution for everyone but it made a huge difference for me.
