Watch “How to Play World Wonders Solo with Playthrough,” a how-to-play guide for World Wonders from Merlin's Manor on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Merlin's Manor on YouTube:
I teach how to play World Wonders with the Solo automaton. It is a very simple AI to run and score for, so you can focus mainly on your own game, but you do have to be careful with how you play because the AI scores most of its points based on what you do on your board (all points comes from what you do when playing on easy).
Error: At 22:30 I misplaced an H building. It could not be legally placed where I put it because it is neither connected to a road or another H building. Also, due to this, I should not have been able to place the Coliseum because the H building would not have been there (or if it had been placed on the road I would not have had a way to connect the Colisseum to a road.

About World Wonders, from BoardGameGeek:
Take on the role of the great leaders of the past to build your own Ancient City.
Players will take turns spending their gold each round to build tiles that will increase their city's economy. A city that produces more food and generates commerce brings more population. Make your city grow!
There are 5 types of buildings, each of which provides resources that will help your city evolve from a simple settlement to the largest city in the world.
To place new buildings in your city you will also need a lot of roads. Don't forget about monuments, which are just as important as the buildings. These will bring you victory points, but claiming one will consume the rest of your gold for the round.
Choose your timing and placement wisely! If your gold runs out, your round is over. Once all players have spent their gold, a new round begins and new buildings and roads will become available.
After 10 rounds or as soon as a player reaches the maximum population limit, the leader of the best city in the ancient world will be the winner of World Wonders!
