The Marinated Meeple (1848 KP) created a post in Solo Gamers

I don't really solo too much since I usually am attempting to design something when I have alone time.... but I love the idea of this group, so I thought I would join... have you tried Palm island Yet, I picked it up and it seems like a solo kind of playing game.

Cool, thanks for taking a look.
I've not played Palm Island yet but it does seem to be getting good reviews in the solo groups.

"When I was 12, I spent three weeks isolated on the island of Sardinia with my father and his young family. I found a copy of Clavell on the bookshelf in the home that we were renting and it saved me. Historical fiction became a lifelong love, and James Clavell a guide."

"As in all of Yates’s books, the characters are modeled after people in his life, and this book is primarily about his mother. It’s like August: Osage County, if it were set on Long Island in the 1930s. The story may be bleak and hopeless, but Yates’s prose is unpretentious and irresistible."

"I’ve been fascinated by Frankie, the heroine of the book, ever since I was 14. McCullers really captures adolescence and, as Frankie puts it, that feeling of being “an unjoined person.” I would imagine on a desert island, I might want to be able to articulate those feelings of longing to belong."
