Great solitaire game, plays like a video game from the 90's!
I recently purchased Under Falling Skies by Czech Games Edition, and it has quickly become one of my favorite solo board games. Some highlights: 1. Engaging Gameplay: The gameplay is brilliantly designed, with a perfect balance of strategy and luck. Each decision feels impactful, and the escalating tension as the alien ships descend adds an exciting challenge. The game mechanics are easy to grasp but offer enough depth to keep you coming back for more. 2. High Replay Value: Under Falling Skies includes a campaign mode with multiple scenarios, each introducing new challenges and twists. This ensures that the game stays fresh and exciting, providing hours of entertainment. The modular setup also allows for varied game experiences, making each playthrough unique. 3. Quality Components: The game components are top-notch, with sturdy, well-designed pieces and a clear, intuitive layout. The artwork is visually appealing and enhances the thematic feel of the game. The compact box size is a plus, making it easy to store and travel with. 4. Solo Play Focus: As a solo board game enthusiast, I appreciate that Under Falling Skies is specifically designed for solo play. The game flows smoothly without the need for complex rule adjustments or awkward automatic systems, providing a seamless and immersive experience. 5. Challenging and Rewarding: This game strikes the perfect balance between being challenging and rewarding. It requires strategic thinking and careful planning, but the sense of accomplishment when you successfully fend off the alien invasion is immensely satisfying. Overall, Under Falling Skies is a must-have for any solo board game collection. Its engaging gameplay, high replay value, and quality components make it a standout game that I highly recommend. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or new to solo board games, you’re sure to enjoy this thrilling and immersive experience. Good value overall

Great game
Great solo game with a lot of replayability and variable difficulty. You won't be playing this on an airplane tray table, but it doesn't take a lot of table space, either.

Arrived damaged when shipped to Taiwan, otherwise good
I ordered this along with two other board games (Onirim and Friday, this is my second review out of the three if you are interested) to Taiwan on free shipping, and was hopeful of the result, but out of the three this was the most damaged (Dented and Scraped) and some of the parts on the inside are already punched out (Could be attributed to the bumpy ride?) but otherwise the “inner parts” are largely fine. The game plays nicely, while the box size makes it okay to carry around while I’m traveling (I’ll still go with boxes similar to Onirim and Friday on an economic trip, though). Mainly disappointed with how the box endured the miles, which is another reason that I will hesitate to bring along trips, the box is somewhat soft and can be easily scraped compared to more sturdier counterparts like Parks and Twilight Struggle. 7/10 for the package.

A great solo game, and very replayable
Very impressed. The dice allocation is very clever, with tradeoffs and hard choices all over the place. The mandatory reroll is such a simple but amazing mechanism; you're taking some chances, but when? There's a little luck to keep it interesting, but it's nearly all input luck (that is, your set of available options is random, but how you apply them is deterministic), so you rarely feel totally out of control. The value proposition is really high. There's a ton of content. I learned the game (3 games) then finished the campaign (9 games) and probably saw 40% of the content. But every game will be different based on the scenario, the city, the sky tiles, and the characters, each of which is well thought out and requires a different way of thinking. Let alone the dice, where even replaying the same setup can differ quite a bit. So I don't get the (minor) complaints about replayability. Also, keep the packing frames, as you can reassemble the game and "gift" it to someone else if you tire of it, or replay the campaign almost like the initial unboxing. Also, you can use the frames to keep the map steadier when you play, as they can shift and get a little messy otherwise (depending mostly on the slickness of your table surface).

Great solo game
Easy to learn, fun gameplay. Great value considering all that’s included in addition to the base game.

Great Solo game
Great Solo board game! Medium sized play area, a little longer than most but enough for a table. I have played it on a slant to easily move pieces while sitting down. Easy to learn, replay value is high, transportable. Great colors, art and minis

This is a great game
I have played this game several times now and have not even started the campaign. I can see a lot more games in my future. The quality of the game is great and once you have played it a few times this is a very smooth game.

Great game
One of the top solo only games and it doesn’t disappoint. Very puzzly and you can make it as hard as you like. Campaign mode adds lots of extras and challenges.

Great Game, Bad packaging
For the game 5 star! Lots of fun playing. Great Solo experience, tight win or loose. Played 4 times the day i received it. Packaging from Amazon SG was not good, a simple plastic bag no bubbles for minimum protection. I'm lucky only a corner was dented and not more. I know people might mind more then me so I added picture.

100% recomendado. Un juego para darle a la cabeza, emocionante y con reglas fáciles de entender.
Este Juego viene en inglés. Vale tanto para jugones como para principiantes porque los reglas son fáciles de entender pero el juego tiene su profundidad.Pues, como digo en el título, es un juego para jugar en solitario que también se puede jugar a 2 o 3 poniéndose de acuerdo en las decisiones a tomar. Es muy entretenido, pese a ser escéptica en el tema extraterrestre vivo rodeada de amigos "creyentes" y el tema me entretiene. En este juego te sumerges en la temática con mucha facilidad y es muy divertido. Hay que darle a la cabeza y hacer bien los cálculos para no acabar con una ciudad plagada de alienígenas y perdiendo el juego, pero ya os digo que se puede ganar, perfectamente. Siempre y cuando los dados acompañen. Aunque yo suelo ser un poco errática en esto de las tiradas, estos dados ( muy ligeros, de madera) me están dando buenas cifras. Me gusta mucho, para jugones y solitarios también recomendado. Cuando juegue en modo campaña actualizaré mi opinión para contaros más.
