Interesting! Have yet to try it solo but sounds like something to try out.

Creature Caravan Details

Although only played 5 times, Creature Caravan is among the top games of the year for me. I usually enjoy games with more interaction but this is such an engaging multiplayer solitaire.
Is Creature Caravan among your top games of the year?
