It's #solotober so my #bgstats are a little skewed towards #boardgames that can be played solo this month.
New to me were:
⭐ Fire! - which I was surprised I hadn't tabled yet, it's interesting and I really should try to work through the remaining levels
⭐ Quests over Coffee - cute, quick print and play. I only played with the base game and I do think it needs the extra cards to make it shine.
⭐ CYOA: House of Danger - is it better than its be with the book? Maybe? Pretty weird story though!
⭐ Manhattan Project: War Machine - I don't know that I fully understood any strategy here and my score certainly reflected that.
⭐ Art Frenzy: Symphony - I might be better at a rock version. Or anything more modern!
⭐ Railroad Tiles - certainly less inky than Railroad Ink. Think I'd need to play it more.
⭐ Rolling Realms - it was OK, but the lack of cohesive the,e didn't work for me
⭐ Small Islands - have played this before but never logged it seams. It's a cute tile layer
⭐ Next Station Paris - have played this quite a few times on BGA. Mixes up the Next Station formula nicely.
⭐ Aleph Null - another "Must have missed logging this before". I like the theme of this one, but I think I prefer the gameplay of Lux Aeterna more. I feel the game thinks I'm smarter than I am
⭐ Empire - Quick economic game that doesn't use too many components and an economical design -

With #solotober wrapped up and done, I give you October’s plays! I aimed for unique games each day, so there’s a lot of variety this time around. There were two more that didn’t fit: Palm Island (which was short and sweet) and Voidfall (which was long and savory).
My favorite #boardgames this month were Three Sisters, Witchcraft! (which I have yet to win), and Park Life!

#Solotober Day 🎃: #AlephNull
We’re cranking the thematics up to 11 with this one! Aleph Null is somewhat of a puzzle game about summoning the goatiest of devils, Baphomet. I’m not usually into these kind of puzzle games, but the bold theme got me interested. AND it’s by the same designer of Lux Aeterna, Tony Boydell!

So many games this month (mostly due to the #solotober challenge). I played 40 games and 11 were logged for the first time.
#Xylotar had been doing quite well with my gaming group. We've also got one more game of the #Powergrid Fable USA campaign to go (of 3)

That marks the end of #solotober. It was exhausting to keep up with the schedule, and to be honest some days I started the game more because I felt compelled to do it than because I wanted to. I ended up having fun every day still. It was a good way to discover some of the characters that I hadn’t played yet, and just that would have been worth if on its own. But this whole thing was more of a challenge than a celebration.

@nolando I already had my problems with #solotober (why not #soloctober?) I seriously doubt that #NeglectedNewvember is catchy enough.
But as a challenge you got my atention. -

To my #soloboardgaming brethren: hot off of the heels of #Solotober, a new solo #boardgames challenge in the form of #NeglectedNewvember awaits!
This is an opportunity to break out that one (or two or few) game(s) that’s been sitting on the shelf/in a box/in shrinkwrap for far too long and giving it some daylight/artificial lighting during the month of November.Details over on the Geeklist over at BGG: https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/341664

#Solotober Days 27 & 28: Still no games…
Day 29 though: #Hunted Mining Colony 415 (by Gabe Barrett)!
I’ve been too busy to get many #boardgames into my schedule, but I did squeeze in this play yesterday! Mining Colony 415 is about 80% similar to its Hunted sibling, Kobayashi Tower, but the dexterity aspect streamlines the gameplay with a fun twist. I lost this game though by running out of time and by getting slain by an alien. Totally metal!

I completed the last route on my last coin but only scored 190 points so am considered merely an apprentice.
Free Ride is much better multiplayer. I did find myself many times wondering if I'd spent a coin each turn (I think I did) and often had to count back a turn to find out if I'd done 4 or 5 movement. I prefer the sneaking in and grabbing the easy route someone else thought they'd get of multiplayer, so this is probably a no for me.
On the positive side, each time I play my knowledge of European geography gets stronger.
