    1P 402 - M:tG - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtle Team-Up

    This week I tell Julius all about Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond Turtle Team-Up, a cooperative M:tG game where up to four players each control one of four Ninja Turtle-themed decks against random boss enemies and event cards. Defeat the first boss and two more jump in; beat those and you face all three at once. I've been enjoying it two-handed solo, even if it has very limited appearl.

    1P 401 - The Peak Team

    This week Julius tells us about The Peak Team Rangers, a fully cooperative game from Scott Almes and Matagot where players are park rangers completing missions across a wildlife reserve before the park closes for the weekend. It has a limited communication/drafting mechanic: rather than keeping your supply cards, you assign them to other players, so everyone has to figure out what everyone else needs. Solo requires difficulty level four, which means working through all four preceding levels first. Julius loved it. I thought the mechanics sounded great but had no interest in that rulebook.  It's a big pass for me. The Peak Team (BGG, Matagot)

    1P 400 - Popular Mechanics - Food

    This week Julius and I celebrate episode 400 and 15 years of the 1 Player Podcast with a Popular Mechanics episode on food-themed games. Finding solo-friendly food games turned out to be harder than expected, but we managed to cook up a few good ones, especially master chef Julius. 05:25 Food Chain Island (BGG, Button Shy) 08:25 Wild Gardens (BGG, Rose Gauntlet) 11:15 Elevenses for One (BGG) 14:50 Kitchen Rush (BGG) 17:53 Conservas (BGG) 21:45 Maki Master (BGG) 27:50 Crumbs (BGG) 30:10 A Nice Cuppa' (BGG) 31:10 Waffles for Esther (RPGGeek) 31:35 My Mother's Kitchen (itch.io) 32:25: Recipe on Kmidysh Paper (itch.io)

    1P 399 - Cozy Stickerville

    This week Julius introduces us to Cozy Stickerville, a cooperative sticker legacy game about building out a village over a 10-year campaign. You draw cards, make decisions, and place stickers on a mounted board, with the whole experience being mostly about narrative and atmosphere over challenge or strategy. Julius loved it (as a family experience), comparing it to a physical version of Stardew Valley. I played the demo with my son, and we were bored by the end of it.

    1P 398 - Fields of Fire

    This week I take a trip into the hedgerows of Normandy with Fields of Fire, the solitaire tactical wargame by Ben Hull, published by GMT Games. This is a strictly solo experience where you command a US Army company across campaigns set in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam.  Instead of a traditional map, it uses a grid of terrain cards.  Command and control mechanics do a great job of simulating fog of war.

    1P 397 - Back to the Table: Nations

    This week we talk about Nations, the board game.  Really though, this is a tale of two nations.  We are focusing on the board game but use that to discuss and compare Nations the board game with nations the dice game. Nations (BGG) Nations: the Dice Game (BGG)

    1P 396 - Power Vacuum

    This week Julius introduces us to a trick taking game for one or more players. In Power Vacuum you take on the roll of an appliance trying to fill the roll of the now deceased Vacuum.  This is a game with a trick taking element in the game play but trick taking is not the only mechanic.

    1P 395 - Popular Mechanics: Family Games

    This week Julius and I look at family games that are also fun solo.  What's a family game?  Well, for us, it's a game that's light enough to play with a group of mixed skills and interest.... more or less. 03:43 Nations: The Dice Game (bgg) 07:12 Sagrada (bgg) 09:17 River Valley Glassworks (bgg) 12:25 Flash Point: Fire Rescue (bgg) 15:35 One-Hit Heroes (bgg) 17:37 Sentinels of the Multiverse (bgg) 19:02 The Game (bgg) 23:52 Flock Together (bgg) 24:31 Necojima (bgg) 25:28 Pandemic (bgg) 25:40 Mice & Mystics (bgg)
