Single Player Game
I just got done watching a few online reviews of this game, and both say that it is for 1 - 4 players. Just curious if anyone has tried it solo, and what your thoughts are on how it plays out.

RE: Single Player Game
I've seen some Zombie AI Variants, but it really dosent work too well because you can see the zombie cards which kept hidden is a big advantage to the Zombie player.

RE: Single Player Game
LOL, Thanks D. I have tried playing Alone in the Dark solo, and you are right, it doesn't work very well because you know what is in the Zeds hand...

However, I was asking about solo play for Conquest of Planet Earth (hence the thread being under the COPE section Zombie03) because I havn't gotten this game yet, and solid solo play would be a deciding factor...

RE: Single Player Game
I haven't played it solo yet, but I've played cooperative with just two players, so I have gotten the sense for what it's like. Really, it should work just fine.

The solo game is really the cooperative game, just staged down to single-player. I enjoy the cooperative game quite a bit, so I don't see any issues with it. It should be fun! (I'm just not big on solitaire games myself, so I don't think I'll be trying it.)

RE: Single Player Game
I don't have this Game but FFP did Solo Rules for AToE and they work well so I would think if they have
Solo rules included they would be solid.

RE: Single Player Game
Thanks for the input guys. I just received Something Wicked last week and tried the solo version over the weekend, it was pretty fun. FFP has done a great job at developing a game engine that plays itself. I think I will be picking this up... eventually. Probly after I move next month - one less thing to keep track of.

RE: Single Player Game
I'm really thinking of getting this game too.
Especialy if the solo game is fun. So has anybody tried it now?

I am the reason God stopped watching.

RE: Single Player Game
I'm afraid I haven't, Emp. But I'm more interested in multi-player co-op myself, and it certainly doesn't let down in that format. I will note that solo is basically "multi-player co-op" with one player, and I've played it with 2, 3, and 4 players, and enjoyed it each time, so I can pretty safely say that the solo version should be just as fun.
