It still makes sense as a solo play choice.

The game rewards practice and mastery over time.

Steam review snapshots

Forts is a great game for strategists and anyone looking for some chaos.
Chaotic Fun
Forts was an easy game to get into when playing with friends, but quite hard to get good at.
Great with Friends
But I still recommend them because the single player campaigns are fun, so you can host lobbies with them, and they are…
Solo-Friendly
The skill ceiling is very high so the potential for growth is essentially limitless.
High Skill Ceiling

Why it fits

Best for players who want chaotic fun, great with friends, solo-friendly, and replayable. Forts blends action and strategy with a weird tone, plus single-player and co-op options. It stands out for chaotic fun and a high skill ceiling.

Who might skip it

Skip it if you want a calm, low-chaos strategy game or do not want something that rewards practice.
