Voyages board game (solo) review – a hidden Roll-and-Write gem
I’ve been on a “Print and Play” (PnP) streak recently as I’m trying to curb my board game spending. What I’m finding as I dig more and more into PnP board games is that there are a lot (a lot!) of them, and some of them are basically AAA...
Race for the galaxy solo review: A modern classic. 15 years after its release, still a very solid game
I joined the party very late on Race for the Galaxy, but with the upcoming “Expansion and Brinkmanship” expansion reprint, I had to give it a try. As someone who’s not that big on euro design, I can say this is a brilliant game that is easy to learn...

Black Sonata Review – A one of a kind solo game with hidden movement mechanic – 100% recommended!
TL,DR: Black Sonata is a Print and Play (free) solo game with a very unique mechanic of hidden movement. It’s extremely elegant and a must have for any solo gamer. Difficult not to recommend, in particular since it’s free. Note that a retail version exists, with high quality components...
