Hi, the designer of Rise of the Wastelands speaking 📢. I'm really happy that you liked the game 🙂. The solo variant is fully finished and tested, but unfortunately we didn't have time to add it to the rulebook yet. We are a 2-person team and currently we are quite busy with the campaign, so we are putting our efforts in other parts of the project right now. But in a nutshell, you can add 1 or 2 'automatic' players that will perform a reduced set of actions, which will be dictated by a deck of cards (you can also add those 'automatic' players even if you play with more people). It is way simpler than the Automa players from Scythe or Tapestry, but they can be quite challenging (there will be 3 levels of difficulty). In the coming days we will do an update in the Kickstarter campaign to explain in more detail how the solo mode works, so stay tuned!
Sounds fantastic I look forward to the details in the coming days. I’m sure soloists are quite happy to get a solo mode in a 4x game (rare this happens!) so well done!
Hey I am the solo designer of TTW! I can confirm the solo mode is not BYOS--it has a strict win/lose conditions! You either meet the conditions on your difficulty card in time (run by the simple AI) OR you lose.
Yes have a new laptop on the way see how that goes otherwise will invest in microphone at some point. Reminder I am still at the hobby level here (not getting paid). I appreciate the watch and hopefully you will hear me with better quality soon. Also, could be my Aussie accent.
