In reply to Brenoit. I considered skipping over it and moving onto the next challenge if things didn't work out. Maybe that's an option! The challenges don't seem to be in a required order, and I imagine not everyone has the patience to play so many times in a row. Good luck to you with whichever solo challenge you try next!

Trying my hand at the solo challenges in order, I just reached that one. And I hit a roadblock. I know it will be a hard one to crack so I fear getting back to the game I enjoy very much.

In reply to Daniel. Great to hear! I enjoy the process of working towards victories, too, and often move on from solo games I seem to win too easily at first. A few are still great when I want something I know I can win, yet the real fun is in the battles to figure everything out. Hope you enjoy the game!

I lose interest in short (< 90 minutes) solo games if I win too often, say a quarter of the time, and that's even more true for games under 30 minutes.

The 1 win, 20 losses is a huge positive for me so I will seek out Railroad Tiles.

In reply to Rob Cannon. It's been a lot of fun for me to play solo! Hope you have a great time with it if you eventually buy it. Good luck with some of these challenges... Particularly the perfection one!

I am adding this to my list of games to buy. There is something about railroads that triggers the child in me. I think the tile laying and puzzly nature would make for a great solo game.
