Woodland Alliance vs Marquise de Cat is balanced for two players

If you want variability with Thunder Road, Choppe Shoppe is the perfect expansion. Every driver is unique and you assign each of your cars a unique ability.

I have a huge soft spot for this game. 10 years ago, I was diagnosed with MS, one of my symptoms was some cognitive decline. A friend recommended board games to work my brain. Went to a game store and some customers roped me into a game of Euphoria. I bought it on the spot. Got me into the hobby. It still hits my table several times a year.

Thanks for your honesty!

Is there anything similar but more midweight and easier to get to the table?

Great categories!

Greetings from Poland, hope you enjoyed your time here during the holidays. :)

Dead cells is awesome I tried it today. Definitely a few rules issues but the FAQ really helped

Thank you for this informative review. Very helpful. This game looks so beautiful and vibrant. That is disappointing to hear about the character interactions and the endings. Hopefully with a couple more play throughout that improves.

Fun video. I think it's a unique idea to board game channels. I love how you're willing to revisit an opinion. That shows thoughtfulness.

For me SETI is the best game of 2024 :)

I called Arcs at 3 then thought to myself, maybe it would be at 5 because of the length of the game and since maybe shorter, lighter or 2 player games would be higher.

Excellent video, excellent choice of games! I'm especially interested in learning more about the games that are new to me - keep up the great work!

Did you say ‘non-biased Bias guides’?

this sounds awesome

Really helpful review. I've watched about four or five reviews of Mariposas, and yours has the closest thing to a strategy discussion. My wife and I are still somewhat on the fence about it. Real time pressure at the end, and we sensed early on the tension between chasing season goals or not heading that far north and maximizing the fourth generation butterflies that are available to dash south to Mexico at game end. Just subscribed to the channel.

Great review.

Thank you for the video! Our family owns the base game which we enjoy to a similar level that you do, it seems, but wasn’t sure if it was worth it to get the expansions. A friend of ours bought Wyrmspan which we’ve only played once but did like. I appreciate the level of detail you include in your reviews. This was very helpful!

I have been able to restore previous purchases across Apple devices… maybe y’all have Android?

An addition to the price: I got soooo much value out of the game. Every scenario is an extensive evening with family and/or friends. It's quite accessible for a "complex" game so you can play it with a lot of people and not just the nerdy types. For just the base game I got many, many hours of entertainment and valued memories out of. Just a personal experience I wanted to share.

Thanks for the review. I'm considering buying a few expansions at the moment after playing a good few scenarios of the 2nd and the 1st edition. Speaking of the first edition: I know a few people how prefer the first edition, so I would say that the 2nd edition makes the 1st edition obsolete. I for one prefer the 2nd edition for the reasons you mentioned: Accessibility and more interesting dynamics.

Pronouns 🙄🤮🤮

I prefer Chinatown to Waterfall Park

I’d like to add a positive opinion to the pool here. After playing this game for about 20 hours I have to say that it is rewarding and fun to keep playing. Yes, it is very hard! But that’s the fun of it: you have to keep adjusting your strategy after multiple games to really learn how to optimize your chances of survival. Also I think coop is the way to go. Sharing items and helping each other move around the board helps a lot.

Thank you for this honest review. I really like the way you did this and have subscribed.

I got my Kickstarter version of Lords of Vegas earlier this year. I have played the base game 3 times and love it each time I play. I can see why it is in the table flipped category it is swingy but that is what makes it awesome. Thanks for your videos always appreciate your perspectives

Great vid! Love ur chill vibe 😁 great list! Ty

When you were talking about lords of Vegas I said to Marta how it sounded very similar to a game I played with you - then you cut me off by announcing the game I was about to talk about as deserving more respect

Thanks for the videos y'all put out. I appreciate the commentary and fun content ❤

Great video, really enjoyed it! First time watching your channel and I’m a fan. Looking forward to checking out the rest of your content!😊

Hey, have you two played Skyrise? Don’t think you’ve covered it. If so, wondering your thoughts on it?

I liked the video, but I like Brass Lancashire better. I dislike the beer mechanic in Birmingham.

Yep, Cthulhu Death May Die got its hooks in me too! Just played today... and lost.

Your Board Gaming awards videos truly are the highlight of my end of year board game video viewing! Thank you for sharing your fun and unique perspective on this year's games :)

how about a 'bored of it' award, game that you just played so much that you dont want to anymore 😄

Loved hearing about the Lords of Vegas expansion! Just got the base game and some fancy poker chips and had a great time with it - will have to get my hands on the expansion now, thanks :)

The timing of this video has rocketed it to the top of my own 'Best for Doing Chores' award 😂 the categories alone let me know this is going to be a fun half hour

Guys help. I bought all of them and love them.

This was an excellent breakdown

Great to see this comparison. Much appreciated. Also, to Tally...loved your work with Abba. 👍

I appreciate you guys’ excellent videos!

Thank YOU !!! and Merry Christmas !!!!

Really enjoyed the look back - always interesting to see how opinions change (or don't) over time, and congrats on the well deserved 10k 🎉

Love your content, 10K is well deserved! Also, what I heard is Nucleum sucks (jk)

Congrats on hitting this milestone! I know it is a lot of work. It has been great watching your content.

I plan on buying Captain's Chair for Solo. It is Star Trek themed Impeium

Congratulations ok 10k subscribers. Thanks for the revisit of the list.

Grand Austria Hotel is my all-time favourite game. It's so tight in every way and you can quite easily dig yourself into a hole if you don't keep your options open... but when you pull off an incredible chain combo in spite of all of that it feels 😍 That's why I love it.

Absolutely liked the video. Didn’t expect Arcs to be so high. So, after all you did like the Arcs Blighted Reach with its’ storytelling?
