Yeah, it is hard to justify going hard at a CCG or TCG sometimes. I've been doing ok at holding myself to only buying some occasional cards. But it's so tough! And like you mentioned, it would be a lot easier to justify if I played on a super regular basis. I'm really enjoying Harvest so far. Cute and fun!

My brother has this game and, when visiting him, he was raving about it being 'like Monopoly but not capitalist'. So we played but meh, it's really not great, especially the trivia cards which are heavy handed and very questionable. So, my game design head turned on and I ended up writing up my own alternate rules for how to make it better. I called it 'The Better Life' and I enjoy it a lot!

Ooo, I haven't had a chance to play that yet. I just checked it out, and they do seem pretty similar in terms of set up and actions. The scoring and special actions are quite a bit different, but I definitely see similarities. I would probably say that unless you love digging into 2 player games and exploring them, you don't need both. That being said, I prefer Compile thematically and we just got the mini expansion and player mat, and they add even more variety and fun.

Great to see Luna as Ryan's #1. I think it is a beautiful game, not in the visual aspect but in what it brings to the table. It is definitely on the weird side of Feld collection but a great game. Another game that should get more love is Oracle of Delphi (and Bonfire!). Probably a Top 3 Feld game at our place. My favorite is still CoB because it is a flawless, perfect, evergreen game.
@RyanandBethany
@RyanandBethany 21 күн бұрын
Luna is so great! Since we've made this video, I also picked up the deluxe edition. It looks even better, and it has some mini expansions as well. Also, this video was made before all of the City Games, and Bonfire, and the Special Edition of CoB all came out. So we may have to redo this list at some point. Lol.
