I agree with others: love the new set, an improvement imo. This video format is my favorite: give me quick explanations/opinions on several games, and small-box card games are my preferred format too!

Jon, there is one game that you're missing on your channel that I think could have made it to this list - Monopoly Deal! Not the classic Monopoly, but the card version of the game. I've made so many friends with this game. Just randomly playing with people in hostels, airports, pubs, etc. I think you'd love it! :D

Wow, all 5 of those looked absolutely great, and unique enough that I'm left wanting every single one. I really love your videos... your explanations always make sense and always win me over. Of these 5, I think Llama party and Truffle Shuffle looked like the most fun.

This is great!! Sometimes with certain people you just need something extremely simple to replace UNO or Rummikub or Yahtzee but without adding any complexity which is very gard to find, and which you don't know because gamers don't mention them. Great job!

One of my late mother's favorite card games was Pit. She really got excited. The name refers to a tiny stepped arena at commodities exchanges where members call out proposed trades. Pit is an unusual type of rummy game, in which multiple players announce proposals to trade hidden cards with each other, until one player assembles all nine of his cards into a single type of commodity, e.g. corn. He then rings the bell and yells out, "Corner on Corn" or whatever.

Great background, and the addition of the chapters in the time bar makes it easy to go back and watch a specific segment, so thank you. "Truffle Shuffle" says that it's for 14+, but BoardGameGeek calls it a family game. Any reason an 11-year-old couldn't play it?
@actualol3 жыл бұрын
No, I think it would be fine for an 11 year old and possibly younger. I think sometimes age suggestions are unnecessarily high because the publisher hasn't gone to the lengths of getting official approval from whatever governing body makes decisions on these things.
