Roll and write games, similar to cooperative board games, are often well-suited for solo play. In these games, players individually strive to optimize the same set of dice rolls. However, many tend to be too quick and straightforward to offer a rich solo experience. An exception is 'Dinosaur Island: Rawr N’ Write,' which stands out for its longer, more intricate gameplay. In this game, your dice rolls produce a range of resources crucial for meticulously constructing and managing a Jurassic World-style amusement park. You'll sketch the park's layout, conduct tours, and ensure robust security – neglecting the latter might result in a dip in tourist numbers.
