My Top 20 Favorite Solo Board Games - Top 20 Best Solo Board Games 2024 Edition - SBGK

For the first time ever, I have created a list of my “Top 20 Solo Board Games!” I’ve never made such a huge list before! It was a huge undertaking but I’m glad to be able to share it with each and every one of you.

Stay tuned after the video for a bonus list of games inducted into The Knights of the Round Table. This is a dedicated list for games that are above and beyond those that came before it. Think of it as a “seal” or “award” of sorts. This gives me the opportunity to add new games on my “Top 10” lists giving other games an opportunity to shine.

Thank you all for watching the video! There will be timestamps in the pinned comment below.

Sincerely,

Solo Board Gaming Knight

Once again, thank you all for all of the support! This channel exists because of the love we all have for board games. There were some games that shifted on this list and many that made an appearance for the first time.

I hope you enjoyed this list! Take care, Solo Knights

Sincerely,

Amazing video.. I actually took a knee and bowed my head as the knights of the round table were finally revealed.

[mdcs]

As an old and purely solo player, this is a much appreciated video. Even many of the largest, longest established boardgame channels, still largely ignore the solo gamer, even though, I feel, it's a growing demograph. So thank you.

[DangerDee]

Dude… talk about perfect timing! I’m looking for lots of solo board games/card games I can play to myself in peace and then this video popped up! Absolutely fantastic. Thank you! Great work too!

[Kojimalosophy]

my dude, you're going places... keep up the good work 👏

[jakecrowe]

Wow! So cool to see a list with tons of games I’ve never played. Thanks for the heads up!

[tristan-s]

Your enthusiasm for final girl is what pushed me over the edge to diving in, and it’s one of my favorite gaming experiences I’ve had. You’re making it real tough to not buy oathsworn!

[Blodhemn]

Great list, thank you! I don't have all of them but a good chunk I do have and love them. The one game I'm rating even higher then Oathsworn (especially for solo play) is Isofarian Guard.

[Allthesmallteas]

A bunch of new games to try! Thanks for your hard work! You're easily the best board game youtuber

[maximelemaitre]

I am so happy that you mentioned adventure tactics and I fully agree that it is the BEST levelling system. Thanks

[Biodelic]

Excellent video with some sweet surprises.

[Marvasio]

That arthurian twist at the end was awsome!

[Mortikar]

Glad to see you back after a few months!

[ObsidianKnight]

Thanks for the list, I can tell you put a lot of time and thought into it! While our tastes don't totally align (I was super disappointed by Adventure Tactics) it's great to see other excellent games like Tales from the Red Dragon Inn up here and newer games I've been interested in like Tamashii.

[mirkozohren]

Awesome List, I never considered Oathsworn to be a solo game, but sure... it can be.
Most of these titles would be on my list, too, but some I did not know about, yet.
Thanks for the inspiration to look into some other less known titles ...

[annajensen]

Thank you soo much for not picking all the same games for solo, like all the rest. I really love that you brought on so many different games and you are not affraid off "hard to learn" rules. Many of your games are too heavy for me, but I did find some that I´m going to check out.

I would like to ask, if you know and have played the games Mechanica and Zona - The Secret of Chernobyl?

Mechanica: You are managing a robot factory. I found it hard to learn the rules, but it payed of and I love playing it. Luckily the rules has a lot of humor in them - I wish more games has that.

Zona: If you ever played the old videogames S.T.A.L.K.E.R. you get the same feeling/vibe as the computer games - I have never experienced that with any other board game.

[gamerdude]

Great list thank you! We have similar tastes so awesome to see new games

[Grey]

Love it! “Knights of the Round Table”. It makes sense.

[mickeymyers]

Wow wow wow, what an awesome list, dear Knight, absolutely LOVED IT. So well done! Your videos never ever disappoint, and the effort you put into this is simply inspiring.
Thank you for another glorious 20 minutes, my good friend.
As always, can't wait for your next upload ❤ A huge high five from me to you. Hope you had an awesome weekend and hope you have a great week! All the best, dear Knight, and see you soon!

[gregorys]

Nice list! I'm just about to sleeve my copy of Legendary Encounters: Alien this afternoon.
