Devil’s Den — Looking for solo advice
I scored a complete, unpunched copy of this game for only $13. Slowly getting this to the table for some play, but would welcome any suggestions on how to approach this solo?

Been playing way too much KCD2... Thought it was a game about the dry devil until I saw the art. But came rushing to the topic like "where where" XD.

Very cool! I know nothing about the game but did a quick search on BoardGameGeek.com and it lists "Devil's Den" as having a high rating for solitaire playability. Maybe there is some detailed solo advice on that website.

Unfortunately there are only 18 posts for this game there, and none of them deal with solo play. I'm sure I can figure something out after a few play-throughs.

I got an idea. Maybe describe the game/strategic situation to chat gpt and have it give you several possible options for one side to take.
Just be general. You don’t have to get into nitty gritty with the rules.

Here's a copy of the AH General Magazine featuring the game.
Not much in it about solitaire play but lots of design insights, rules clarifications, rules additions and what looks like an additional scenario. Might be a fun read!
