Back to the Future : Dice Through Time Boardgame Solo Review - Is it Better Solo

Watch “Back to the Future : Dice Through Time Boardgame Solo Review - Is it Better Solo,” a board game review on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by BoxedMeeples on YouTube:

Hidden away at the very bottom of our Kallax is Back to the Future: Dice Through Time — a co-operative dice placement game where you jump across eras, fix paradoxes, deal with Biff’s chaos, and try to restore the timeline before it collapses. When we played this multiplayer we weren't that impressed and then it quietly disappeared. But, Five years later I was reminded we actually own it! Which raises a dangerous question: was it hidden because it doesn’t actually work that well with other people? Maybe its Better Solo? With open information and fairly clear optimal plays, co-op sessions can sometimes feel like one person steering the DeLorean while everyone else hangs on. But played solo, that dynamic changes completely. There’s no table talk, no hesitation, no accidental quarterbacking. Just you, the dice, and the pressure of the timeline spiraling out of control. So was this shelved because it’s not a great multiplayer experience? is it actually a tighter, cleaner puzzle when you play it alone? Let’s find out. Thankyou to @scratchitoffboardgames for the game suggestion, and for allowing us to use you in this video. ---- Gameplay footage has been cut down to make the video as interesting as possible.

About Back to the Future: Dice Through Time, from BoardGameGeek:

Great Scott! Biff stole the DeLorean and went on a joyride through time, disrupting events and scattering items through space and time! Now it's up to you to help Doc and Marty repair the space-time continuum before time paradoxes unravel the very fabric of the universe. Jump in your time machine, complete events, return items, and help! The future is in your hands! In this cooperative dice game, you'll take control of a DeLorean and travel through the entire Back to the Future film trilogy, completing memorable events and returning key items to their proper place and time before the OUTATIME tracker reaches “Game Over.” Each round, you and your fellow players will roll dice to determine your actions, which include time travel, moving meddling members of the Tannen family, and more. You'll use your dice to complete events from the films. Once an event is complete, you'll draw an item card, which you'll need to return by traveling to the year and location listed on the card. Then, the OUTATIME tracker is reduced - buying you more time - and you earn an Einstein token. Einstein tokens provide one action anyone can use later. In a pinch, you can even "ripple" dice by placing them on your space the board, allowing other players in future years to pick them up and use them! After everyone has taken their actions, advance the OUTATIME tracker depending on which year has the most unsolved events. Finally, add Paradox tokens to all unsolved events on the board. In later rounds, these will cause the OUTATIME tracker to go up even faster! Return all the items before the OUTATIME tracker reaches “Game Over” to win!
