Picked up a copy of Fireball Island: Race to Adventure for the younger kiddos and got to try it out today.

They liked it more than Forbidden Bridge especially with all the marble destruction ๐Ÿ˜…

Most of the island was flooded and gone, but we got the four treasures and escaped just in time!

And here is my #BGStats grid for April in its full 4x4 glory.

Weโ€™re continuing to enjoy #WelcomeToTheMoon and, whilst most of the others are regulars, this month we pulled in some old favourites that hadnโ€™t been played for a while:

#ThanosRising weโ€™re too good at this coop game now and itโ€™s got a bit boring
#Ghostel kind of overstays its welcome
#ForbiddenIsland we are still terrible at this coop though, which is more enjoyable.

#BoardGames

Our first play of co-operative #boardgame "Forbidden Island" didn't go well, as we lost in the second turn (the final escape tile "Fool's Landing" flooded in the setup phase & then sank into the abyss after an early "Waters Rise!") But without that bad luck repeating itself, we won the second game :-) A game which is simple to learn, but interesting to play so far - different adventurer powers add variety, & looks like difficulty tweakable if needed. #BoardGames #CoopGames #ForbiddenIsland

I seem to recall that #SevenWonders has a solitaire "mode" that can be played. Most cooperative games like #ForbiddenIsland and #Pandemic can also be played solo.

I've heard good things about Deep Space D6 but have yet to encounter it personally to get a feel for it.

BGG has a good post on a solo variant for #RaceForTheGalaxy.

I found a Solo Scenario book for #Gloomhaven here.
