Strange World Above the Clouds | Solo Playthrough - A Quirky Card-Laying Puzzle

Watch “Strange World Above the Clouds | Solo Playthrough - A Quirky Card-Laying Puzzle,” a gameplay video for Strange World Above the Clouds on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Sir Thecos on YouTube:

In this solo playthrough of 'Strange World Above the Clouds' by Florian Grenier, I try to create my own little world using just 16 cards! I'll be placing different landscapes, animals, and other strange things into a 4x4 grid, trying to make the most of the available cards and score as many Stars as possible. But every type of terrain has its own rules, and mistakes can summon the Tzimimes, strange creatures that can ruin my carefully planned world. This is a quirky little card-laying puzzle with colorful artwork, simple gameplay, and some rather tricky decisions along the way. Description on BoardgameGeek: "In Strange World, you have to do your best with the worst. Indeed, with a tight draft of 3 cards, your opponents will certainly give you cards that are not so simple to play in your game area. But from the optimisation of these restrictions comes the gaming fun."

About Strange World Above the Clouds, from BoardGameGeek:

Create a strange world inhabited by puzzling creatures. At each creation restriction mistake, dangerous Tzimimes will appear. Obtain the most Stars as you create a world made of 16 cards as you watch for the Tzimimes trying to devour your cards. Each player has a game area in front of them. It is forbidden to play cards in any opponents area. Each turn, draft 3 cards then play, alternatively, your cards, one by one in your world, orthogonally adjacent to a card that was previously played in your game area. Several types of lands have playing restrictions. If they are not met, the card is played face down, Tzimimes side facing up and do not score any Star at the end of the game. Other lands have binding play effects. Some cards will add vertical and horizontal scoring. In Strange World, you have to do your best with the worst. Indeed, with a tight draft of 3 cards, your opponents will certainly give you cards that are not so simple to play in your game area. But from the optimisation of these restrictions comes the gaming fun. -description from the designer
