The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine (There Will Be Games): “As you can see, I'm enthralled by The Crew. Yet, there is one more thing that is amazing about the game. You can play it 2-player. Now, that is an amazing feat, because most trick-taking games require at least three players.”

Knot Dice and Knot Dice Squared (Gaming With Sidekicks): “I highly recommend this one for solo or duo gamers to enjoy the most. There are opportunities to play more than 2 players but it feels best at the 1-2 player range.”
