This is an episode I’ve been wanting to do for a while, where I do pretty in depth about playing solo boardgames.  After a quick introduction, I get right into a discussion about the role that playing boardgames alone serves and answer some challenges and questions about it.  Then I launch into a list of boardgames I’ve played solo before, and finish with reviews of six solitaire boardgames: Levee en Masse, We Must Tell the Emperor, Zulus on the Ramparts!, If I’m Going Down…, Nemo’s War, and Friday.

Listen, enjoy (hopefully), and feel free to give me feedback either here, via email (gamerchris@bellsouth.net), at my Guild on BoardGameGeek, or on Twitter (@kilroy_locke).
