How to Solo: Friday

In this video, I give a quick explanation of Friday, a delightful small-box solo deck builder. Join me as I try to turn a weak and idiotic Robinson Crusoe into someone who is able to brave the deepest jungle, defeat two dastardly pirates, and get off of my island! Enjoy, and please like and subscribe.

Won at first attempt at all difficulty. Enjoyed it. Thank you for your recommendation. I'm also a MK veteran.

[@Excuse711]

Years later watching the same refresher before I play. Thanks!

[@BeyondSolitaire]

This makes me very happy. :)

[@stacie_everdell]

Wow, thanks for that comprehensive run-through. I’ve seen reviews and even other play throughs of this game that were a bit confusing. Your explanation is very clear. I just picked up this game and I’m eager to play. Thank you!

[@thx1978]

I completely agree!

[@ThredithUndomiel]

I've owned this game for a while, but watching your video motivated me to actually go ahead and play it. Needless to say, I lost. But, it was fun!

[@ouachealthwellbeingwithgra7292]

I'm so glad when I find reviews done by you, you're one of the best.

[@BeyondSolitaire]

Thank you so much!

[@j.v.1093]

Liz, I love your videos. You make me happy. Thanks. ☺️

[@Zaloomination]

At 11:46 why does it cost you 6 life points?
edit...Oh, nevermmind, it's because you had -2 and you needed 4 to win, and the difference is 6...right?

[@Duracelbunny]

Good tutorial thanks

[@AppleZaider]

Best tutorial (short and comprehensive) around. Thanks 👍🏼

[@BeyondSolitaire]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ericburgin613]

Great explanation of the gameplay. I just got this and your video helped to clarify the instructions. Looking forward to giving it a try.

[@parkerstoryteller]

Thank you SO much for this how-to-play! I know this is a great classic game, but the instructions are possible the worst I've ever read (especially for such a simple game!). Your video shows the game in its best light and made it so I could actually play it!!

[@coobeanslf5474]

Thanks for the playthrough. Played last night for the first time and losses super quick. I misunderstood how paying to get the bad cards out worked so this was super helpful for future playthroughs!

[@hpbruin]

I own this and haven’t played it in a long time. I don’t I’ve ever made it past the yellow stage. It’s tough!

[@greenatom]

Really clear explanation. Thank you.

[@tristaleigh367]

Helpful, but there's still a lot I am fuzzy on. Never played anything like this before. Wish it was start to finish.

[@dennishansen1413]

This game is so brutal and hard to beat. I own it myself and have never won 😂

[@BeyondSolitaire]

Been. There.

[@unlimitedrabbit]

I've reached the second or third red phase card. I can't reach yellow phase without having been whittled down to 12 life points. 😭

[@Guillolife]

I've yet to pull the trigger on this, but I have played it on Tabletop Simulator. Obviously the real thing is best. One of these days I'll finally get it. I do love my masochism, after all.

[@BeyondSolitaire]

This one is definitely worth it!

[@alicemoore2036]

Going to try again. This can be discouraging.

[@phil-phildc483]

Great video, but I have a question:
In the Rulebook (pg. 6) it mentions “For the life points you pay in this manner you can destroy face up fighting cards.”
I interpreted that as you can destroy cards to use as payment for the missing fight value.

[@misterman99]

Thanks! I played twice and lost but I got further the second time haha.

[@CaseClosedKnife]

Looking for a scan of the components and setup sheet. Was missing from my game.

[@northlakeghost]

Love this game! Have you played Gate? Similar small deck-builder but in this case it's tower defense. That's one of my faves also.

[@neilreynolds8110]

Hi Liz, good video! I really enjoy this game. Can you recommend a good intermediate game to someone fairly new to gaming to play solo after Friday? Ideally something which offers a challenge with strategy / puzzles and also replayability and perhaps a longer / more in depth experience. Many Thanks in advance!

[@ouachealthwellbeingwithgra7292]

Welcome To The Moon is a game I'm currently having a blast with 🚀

[@neilreynolds8110]

@@ouachealthwellbeingwithgra7292 Oh a new Welcome To! I’ve not seen this one but really like the first one! Thanks for the tip!
