What are your favorite solo games on BGA?

[tboard]

I wanted to make this post to see which solo games were the most popular on BGA. I have noticed lots of solo games created for A Feast for Odin, Anachrony, Ark Nova, Space Empires 4x, Pandemic, etc. If you could, I was hoping the solo gaming community could chime in and post their favorite solo games on BGA. Thank you.

I don't have the capability to play solo games on BGA since I'm not a premium member. I am in the process of deciding whether or not to go premium based on the responses I get from this post.

My top 10 solo games in general (not necessarily on BGA)

1. Mage Knight
2. Spirit Island
3. Pandemic
4. Friday
5. Nemesis (fully coop mode)
6. Lord of the Rings LCG
7. Hoplomachus Remastered
8. Commands and Colors Ancients
9. Too Many Bones
10. Arkham Horror

I don't have the capability to play solo games on BGA since I'm not a premium member.

I am not a Premium member either and I have played a few games solo on BGA. Is this something that varies by game?

You can play solo games without being premium. You just cannot start a table for a premium game... so you cannot play solo a premium game, but you can play solo any other game (if it supports solo play).

"It's a Wonderful world" is my favourite on here (and IRL) at the moment.
Premium is not a lot per year, especially considering how much some of the games on here can be (Feast for Odin for example)

You may have enough gift points, you can try premium for free for a month:

I have played solo on BGA - A Feast for Odin, Pandemic, Tranquillity, Tranquillity The Ascent, Railroad Ink, Welcome To, Viticulture, Troyes Dice and Trek 12. My favourite is A Feast for Odin. You don't mention any Uwe games in your list though so I'm not sure if it'd be your kind of game.

Thank you for the replies. Yes, I have heard that AFFO is an amazing solo game. I do have a physical copy of the game, I just need to learn how to play it.

BGA's tutorial for AFFO is good - that's how I learned how to play it. As with all the tutorials it's for the multiplayer game but the solo game is pretty similar (basically you just block yourself for next round instead of being blocked by other players' placements). I don't know if you can do the tutorial for a premium game when you're not premium though but it's probably worth a try.
