What are the top solitaire (solo) board wargames? In this video, I rank my top solitaire (solo) board wargames, counting down from #10 to #1. These are the solo wargames that I think work best when played alone, offering strong systems, meaningful decisions, and engaging gameplay without the need for an opponent.

This list focuses on board wargames designed for solitaire play, including games with dedicated solo systems, AI-driven opponents, or designs that naturally support solo command and decision-making. The games featured span different scales and eras, but all share a focus on thoughtful planning, historical flavor, and satisfying solo experiences.

If you enjoy solo board gaming, solitaire wargames, or are looking for wargames that shine when played on your own, this video highlights some of the best options in the hobby.

In this video:
Top solitaire board wargames
Solo wargames ranked from #10 to #1

Historical Conflict

Shuri Castle had been shelled by the battleship USS Mississippi for three days before this advance. The 32nd Army withdrew to the south and thus the Marines had an easy task of securing Shuri Castle. The castle, however, was outside the 1st Marine Division's assigned zone, and only frantic efforts by the commander and staff of the 77th Infantry Division prevented an American airstrike and artillery bombardment which would have resulted in many friendly fire casualties

CONTEMPORARY | OPERATIONAL | 1 PLAYER | DURATION 45′ – 60′ | GAME DESIGN: JOSE MANUEL NEVA

Iwo Jima: Hell On Earth is a hex & counter wargame based on this iconic battle. This challenging solitaire wargame puts you in command of U.S. Marine Regiments as they battle entrenched Japanese Battalions during the iconic 36-day Operation Detachment. Each game turn represents approximately four days, condensing the intense conflict into nine turns of strategic decision-making.

The Battle of Iwo Jima, a pivotal momentin the Pacific Theater of World War II, stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the human will and the immense cost of victory. This brutal conflict, fought between the United States Marine Corps and the Imperial Japanese Army, unfolded on the small volcanic island of Iwo Jima, a mere 660 miles south of Tokyo.

From February 19 to March 26, 1945, American forces waged a relentless assault against a well-fortified enemy, determined to seize control of the island’s strategic airfields. Iwo Jima was crucial to the Allied war effort, serving as a vital base for fighter planes escorting long-range bombers on missions to the Japanese mainland.

The battle was marked by fierce resistance from the Japanese defenders, who had meticulously constructed a network of underground tunnels and fortifications.The Marines faced relentless attacks, as they fought their way across the island’s rugged terrain. The iconic image of Marines raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi became a symbol of American determination and sacrifice.

The Battle of Iwo Jima was one of the bloodiest battles in Marine Corps history, with thousands of American and Japanese soldiers losing their lives. The island’s volcanic ash and the intense fighting conditions made it a grueling ordeal for both sides. Despite the heavy casualties, the Marines ultimately achieved their objective, securing Iwo Jima and bringing the United States one step closer to victory in the Pacific War.

⚔️ Seven Years War Live Playthrough — Part 3 ⚔️
Prussian Alliance (Tony’s Board Life) vs. Austrian Alliance (Rough Swordsman Wargamer)

The war escalates dramatically as the December 1757 turn concludes and the strategic map of Europe begins to shift.

Major developments from this session include:
Prussia captures Dresden 🏴
Prussia captures Leipzig 🏴
Russian forces lay siege to Königsberg
French armies besiege Minden
The Holy Roman Empire moves against Glatz

With Prussian gains in Saxony secured, new threats emerge on multiple fronts. Can Frederick’s armies consolidate their victories, or will the coalition pressure from Russia, France, and the Holy Roman Empire stretch Prussia too thin?

Join us for strategic discussion, tense decision-making, and the unfolding drama of the Seven Years War as alliances clash and the balance of power hangs in the balance.

🎥 This is Part 3 of our ongoing live campaign

This is the first volume in Hollandspiele's American Civil War Operational Series by John Thiessen. It features a large map, two small decks of cards, and a small amount of counters- no clutter. Also, specific unit names and strengths are often hidden, making for exceptional fog of war, gambling, and bluffing.

Live Cardboard #22 - Best of the year

Up Front guru Mike Nagel brings a new twist to World War II tactical combat with his new game, Off the Line. It's card driven (like Up Front), but played with counters on a hex map (like Combat Commander). The initial game features the Americans and Germans, and there are already two expansions, one for the Commonwealth and on for the Italians.

Sea & Steel: Columbus’ Voyages – Unboxing | Neva Wargames

In this video, I’m unboxing Sea & Steel: Columbus’ Voyages from Neva Wargames, a historical wargame that takes us out onto the open ocean and back to the uncertain world of the Age of Exploration.

Sea & Steel isn’t just about moving ships across a map — it’s about managing risk, navigating the unknown, and making difficult decisions with limited information. This design explores Christopher Columbus’ voyages through a strategic lens, balancing ambition, survival, and resistance in a way that feels both tense and thought-provoking.

During this unboxing, we’ll take a close look at everything in the box, including the map, counters, rulebook, and components, along with my first impressions of how the game approaches history and gameplay. As always, I’ll be viewing this through the eyes of a tabletop wargamer who values meaningful decisions and historical immersion.

This is the first step before getting Sea & Steel to the table. Full playthroughs and after-action thoughts are coming soon, where we’ll see how the game flows once the dice start rolling and the sails are set.

A sincere thank you to Neva Wargames for sending this copy — I’m grateful for the opportunity and excited to share this unique title with the Cardboard Commander community.

Iwo Jima: Hell on Earth – Unboxing | Neva Wargames

In this video, I’m unboxing Iwo Jima: Hell on Earth from Neva Wargames, a compact yet intense World War II wargame that puts you in command during one of the most brutal battles of the Pacific Theater.

The Battle of Iwo Jima was a fight defined by attrition, terrain, and sheer determination — and this game captures that tension in a streamlined design that emphasizes tough decisions and constant pressure. From the maps and counters to the rulebook and overall presentation, we’ll take a close look at everything included in the box and talk through first impressions from a tabletop wargamer’s perspective.

This unboxing is just the beginning. I’ll be getting Iwo Jima: Hell on Earth to the table soon with full playthroughs and after-action thoughts, exploring how the mechanics reflect the historical challenge of this iconic battle.

A big thank you to Neva Wargames for sending this copy — I’m humbled by the opportunity and excited to share it with the Cardboard Commander community.
