Description

When playing The Yawning Portal solo you don't have a hand of Hero cards. Instead, Heroes line up and wait for a seat:

  • When an action or PMB allows you to draw cards, slide the line down and place the new cards closest to the deck.
  • When you use the Play a Card action, move the Hero card from the front of the line (farthest from the deck) to any available spot at the table.

In solo play, your goal is to complete the Objective before the Food Token Row reaches the X printed on the Objective card.

When scoring, Gems are multiplied the same way, and each completed Objective is still worth 5 VP. But instead of determining the standard endgame bonuses, simply award yourself 3 VP for each set you collect.

Some rule clarifications

  • When playing solo any reference to cards in your hand translate to cards in the queue.
  • When playing solo and objective cards are removed from the ends of the table, the now empty spots can be used to place hero cards.
  • Starting food tokens are placed like this: 2|2 (solo play), 4 (two players), 3|3 (three players) and 2|4|2 (four players).
