Today's episode has a look forward at upcoming solitaire games. Then, I look at Death Hulk: Space Angel, published by Fantasy Flight Games, in detail. Oh yeah, I announce a small contest because, darned it, I want e-mail.

Welcome to the Halloween Episode... published just barely in time for the Holiday. It has a very very brief look at Halloween solo friendly games in general and then I spend some time dwelling on Elder Sign. Enjoy!

Episode 6 is finally available. It's only a week late. This episode is about experience games. I define those as games where playing is more abut the experience and story the game provides than it is about winning or losing. I first talk a little bit about dungeon crawlers and the review Outdoor Survival. This game is both despised and beloved. In both cases, I think, because the gameplay is so bad. However, if you start a game of Outdoor Survival with that in mind you'll find the experience more fun for it. Finally, I have a small contest in which you can win a copy of Onirim if you upload an Outdoor Survival scenario to BGG.
Having taken 3 weeks to get this episode out, I think I like that time frame. It gives me enough time to play games between shows. In the near future, I may try and slow down my publishing rate a bit.

Episode 3 of the 1 Player podcast is all about co-operative games. First I go the timeline of co-operative games starting way back in 1979. I make one glaring mistake during this segment but manage to correct myself later in the show. See if you can find it before I do. Finally, I review Lord of the Rings by Reiner Knizia & Lord of the Rings: The Card Game by Nate French.
