I'm on the hunt for the best light, medium and heavy solo board game. Each episode I look at one solo game that I've been playing in each complexity category and see if it can knock off the current champion in its weight. I'll talk about the automa/scoring systems, the setup times, the challenge and my overall experience with all three. My hope is that this series is not only informative and useful to those solo board gamers out there who want some more info and insight into games before they spend their money, but also a fun, entertaining and enjoyable journey to find the best solo board games out there.

Welcome to another installment of Paula & Friends where I play board games with my friends. And film it. And edit it. And then post it here!
"In Pantheauction, players each take on the role of a different Olympian and use their valuable hordes to win, in auction, the Domains of the world which they believe to be of the most value. Play as both auctioneer and bidder as you fool others into paying far more than a Domain’s true value, while simultaneously scoring criminally good deals on huge investments."
🔥 Some war games stay on the mind long before they ever hit the table.
In this video, JG talks about war games he wishes he could play right now — titles that look exciting, intense, and impossible to ignore. Some are heavy strategy experiences, some are thematic conflict-driven games, and some are simply the kind of games that create immediate table temptation.

Hey friends! Let's continue this board game collection declutter! It makes me so happy to know that a lot of you are enjoying this series. I've had a great time doing this and it really made me feel better about my collection. A part of me does wish I got rid of even more but it's a journey and down the road we can get rid of more. Enjoy part 2 friends!
