I won't go as far as saying you should buy this game just for solo play with the "Automa" system, but it is definitely a perk to have. It provides a cool way to learn the game and with all the variants available by the publisher online it adds variety for those who can't get a group over for a game night but still want some board games. I haven't tried all the way up to 4 Automas at once but can confirm that it is challenging and adds to an already great game. For me a big part of board games are the friends you play with so excluding the social part lacking Scythe's solo play, or Automa as they call it, is the most in depth and worth while solo variant I have spent time with. (I've only owned two games with such variants and seriously spent time with one of them)

Is solo play played on the computer (after purchasing the tangible game)?

Soon played on the game board itself. The game comes.with rules that alllow you to play solo.

Does this item contain any Kickstarter items?

No, this is the standard retail edition of Scythe.

Is this game fun with 2 players?

That's the beauty of this game: it works at any player number. The strategies you use may change, but fun remains.
