Please add Solo mode

Post by arsenal412 »

Would love to play this on my own as a quick 5 minute time filler. But no solo? Seems like this would be an easy add?

As far as I know, there is no solo mode in the physical version.

But you can play in hotseat mode against yourself.

I invented a solo variant to play here using the hotseat. I try to maximize the score for both hands, and beat my best total score. There is more decision space there than you might think, because it is fairly common to have one hand need to clear the row while the other hand wants cards that are already out, to find cards that would be beneficial to either hand, or to disadvantage one hand as a side effect a taking a card that moves the messenger at a bad time.
Hilariously, I got my highest score the first time I tried this (204), and I haven't been able to beat it since!
