That roll and write video (or series) helped me find some new favs!! Thanks!!!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Thanks for watching! 🧡 We had such a good time making those. I think we'll try something like that again next year! Glad you found some new favs!

[@blackboardgaming5348]

Love you, too, Billy!! I cant wait to try French Quarter!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

I really think it's the best of the bunch!

[@tlpint]

Agreed on Maximum Apocalypse. It was as surprise for me as well, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

So much fun to get surprised like that with a game. Now we're looking forward to trying more of it.

[@teaNgames]

Great answers! So much fun to see what everyone thinks of the games played so far!🎉

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Thanks! These little tag challenges are always so much fun 🧡

[@malvinafis6907]

I completely missed the tag. I have definitely missed a lot on the boardgame KZbin. Missed you

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Missed you too! Thanks for watching all of these!

[@getgaymin]

Also discovered Loyang this year, and it might be my fave Euro to play solo now (even tho I wish it was slightly less orientalist). But we also FINALLY got a physical copy of Castles of Burgundy this year and I was surprised how much Rich liked it; it's second only now to Rajas of the Ganges in his heart

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

That's high praise! I really enjoyed it solo. Billie hasn't tried it yet though. Maybe I can convince her.

[@getgaymin]

@@SecondStartotheLeft I perosnally like the way drafting works in the solo version better; because getting the right helpers is so pivotal to not being completely frustrated in this game, I think using it as a way to introduce someone to the game is not super game-break-y

[@spielmill1755]

Oooh we are so jealous you have French Quarter already! So excited for that.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It's truly wonderful! We have a prototype but I can't wait to see the final version

[@stacie_everdell]

One answer per question, please...no cheating. I'm with Billie (sp? 🤔) Michele, maybe try to leave 'and" out of your answers. 🤣🤣🤣

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

I'm not sure that I can 🤣🤣🤣
