This week Julius and I talk about dexterity games.  It's not a category you see often when talking about solo games, but there are a few fun ones we've tried (mostly). * 02:04 Flip Ships (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/223215/flip-ships]) * 05:47 Nekojima (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/359029/nekojima]) * 09:50 What Lies Beneath (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/365751/what-lies-beneath]) * 12:30 Hunted: Mining Colony 415 (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/289565/hunted-mining-colony-415]) * 15:43 Slide Quest (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/271785/slide-quest]) * 21:20 Hoverkraft (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/169256/hoverkraft]) * 25:36 Menara (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/244608/menara]) * 31:14 Jenga (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2452/jenga]) & Clever Girl (RPG Geek [https://rpggeek.com/rpg/69443/clever-girl-1st-and-2nd-ed]) * 34:55 For Science!

This week Julius and I talk about the smaller version of Terraforming Mars.  Well, one of the smaller versions.  The game is the very lovely  love-child of Terraforming Mars & Race for the Galaxy, Ares Expedition.  In this game, you are working to make Mars a habitable planet by managing the temperature & oxygen levels while raising oceans.  The theme is straight out of Terraforming Mars.  However, you do it by choosing actions and playing cards simultaneously, just like Race for the Galaxy. * Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/328871/terraforming-mars-ares-expedition]) * Terraforming Mars (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/167791/terraforming-mars], Fryx Games [https://fryxgames.se/product/terraforming-mars-ares-expedition/]) * Race for the Galaxy (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/28143/race-for-the-galaxy])

This week, we talk about Harvest, the farming game from Keymaster Games, publishers of PARKS.  In this game, you are trying to farm and harvest your fields as often as possible.  It's a worker placement that can be soloed by playing against Gairy, the Dairy cow. * Harvest (BGG [https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/395623/harvest], Keymaster Games [https://keymaster.fun/products/harvest])

This week Julius takes us back to the table with Lewis & Clark.  Go on a slow boat ride accoss the North American continent to explore lands acquired in the Louisiana Purchase and explore the yet unclaimed Pacific Northwest.  That is, not yet taken from the native populations of the are.

This week Julius and I explore a RPG about exploring a giant castle.  Giant doesn't do this castle justice though.  This is a world inside a castle so immense there are seas in it.  The castle is filled with room so large there are cities and villages in them.  You will wander around exploring and fighting Rooks, massive creatures made of stonework.  When you defeat one, you can gain powerful magic stones, Rookstones. Colostole is a solo RPG by Nich Angell. * Colostle (RPG Geek [https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2915916/colostle-a-solo-rpg], Colostle.com [https://www.colostle.com/])
