You may not have content that comes out as frequently as other creators but when my notifications tell me an Actualol video has just been uploaded I hop right over to KZbin and watch it immediately! I'll have to check some of these games out since most of my gaming is done with my wife.

My boyfriend and I got our first proper board game together not so long ago - persuaded by another one of your brilliant videos, we opted for Patchwork. Fantastic game! We would go for a co-op game as our next buy I think. Just wanted to say thanks for leading people in the right direction in regards to great board game fun - keep up the good work! :D
@actualol
@actualol 7 жыл бұрын
Thanks for sharing! That's awesome! Yeah, a co-op game is definitely worth trying if you don't have one. Is Pandemic on the shortlist? That was our first, and we still love it.

It definitely is - I'm working towards becoming a nurse, so a game about saving the world from deadly and vile diseases, hell yeah! Also Forbidden Desert looks really intriguing - a bit more so than Forbidden Island. Just hope it plays well with just two, if not, I really would like to get it anyway, just 'cause. It's strange. I KNOW I have always loved board games, I spent alot of time playing them when I was younger with my family. I think we all have. But somewhere along the line of life, it was forgotten. And the games of the past weren't really all that compared to what I can now see is happening. I had no idea what a co-op game was. Or how a game could be "legacy". And god, when I looked into "A Feast for Odin", I sat there with my mouth open for ages looking at all the content! I feel like I've been robbed of so much while being oblivious to whats out there, but not anymore!

Great video! While I've been an avid gamer for years, slowly but surely that interest has been growing in my fiance too! I came across your first "Top 10 Couples Games" video a couple years ago and got a bunch for us for Christmas. Anyhow, as a result of the first we added a few to our collection (Patchwork is now one of our faves and we've already been having a grand time with Fugitive from its Kickstarter). After this one I'll definitely be grabbing a few more. Keep up the excellent work!

Great stuff, the focus on couples gaming is grand. I'd find a retrospective "we used to play, but now we're playing..." a neat one. A bit like your video about games that have left your collection. It feels with couples games though that their shelf life is very different to your typical 4 player fare.

I Sagrada hand it to you for the excellent SU&SD pear-ody, but I can't help but notice that there wasn't enough groaning or eye rolling from the girlfriend to make it seem realistic (then again, you know Morels about your relationship than I do. she might actually punderstand and enjoy wordplay more than most). Also, in a future video, could you maybe Tak about the experience of buying games with her reactions/commentary and how you react to it? Or maybe a video about your method for choosing which game to play? Is it methodical or do you just close your eyes and go "Santorini-meenie-miney-mo"? ... Fugitive. I wasn't sure how to work that one into a pun...

Great video! I don't know if it is thanks to you, but both Sagrada and Santorini are totally unavailable at least in France / UK :-(. Too bad, now I want them even more ;-). FYI for the guys searching for a copy, an amazon comment says that Santorini will be re-edited in September.

En ce qui concerne Sagrada, le jeu a eu une VF il y a deux mois (juillet 2018). Apparemment ça s'est bien vendu car les prix Amazon sont 10€ trop cher, mais sur Philibertnet on peut pré-commander le jeu (une 2e impression, j'imagine) pour 35€.

My mycologist friend was getting annoyed for nothing...

Great video - you got my subscription! I love the 2 player games I have already including Jaipur, Battle Line, Lost Cities and Hive. I want to expand my collection with Santorini as it looks like a really good game but I can't seem to find anywhere in the UK that is selling it! Your link goes to a discontinued amazing seller... do you know where I can get it??? Also Tak is £50 but also looks really fun so may have to bite the bullet!
@actualol
@actualol 7 жыл бұрын
Santorini is out of stock everywhere at the moment, but I'm certain it will be back within a few months, so just hold on I'd say. Tak should be more like £40 - it is a little pricey.
