Fairy Tale Review - with Sam Healey

[@stevepruneau6561]

I finally bought this a few months ago, and I have yet to play with my group. I really like the way your explained the points system on this one. Awesome :D

[@Syncopator]

Good job Sam! I've already got the game but have yet to get it played. From this I do see that starting out I probably don't want to use the Expert cards, because the level of complexity they bring would really bump up the initial learning curve. But then it looks like they will keep things interesting once everyone is familiar with the basic play & scoring. I'm looking forward to trying this one out.

I'm gonna get this game, thanks Sam for the review and also I discovered this game because you had mentioned it in some top 10 with Tom and Zee :)

[@stevepruneau6561]

Too late Sam, I already sold my spleen! HAHA.. Damn you guys.. making me very poor. I have to buy this one eventually also. Thanks for you review Sam. Awesome as usual!

I bought this game based on how much Sam recommended on the Top 10s and I find it a great game. In fact, it has replaced 7 wonders for me (at least the basic game) because I like the fantasy theme and the artwork much better, so when I want to play a drafting game I play Fary Tale, or Sushi go if I'm for something quicker and easier.

Sam, you dealt 6 to yourself. Home field advantage. Great review and tutorial

[@wroot_lt]

No mention of 7 wonders? :) good self-control :)

[@noloatmo6682]

Added to wishlist. Thanks, Sam.

I love Sam he's my favorite. I find my opinion about games matches with his the most.

[@Trevin_Taylor]

Anna Belluomini which Sam? For years it was Amerithrash, but he’s gone Euro soft the last year. Did you watch this year’s top 100? The other guys kept saying “who are you and where is Sam?”

[@abel7519]

Well I might be completely wrong about him since I've only watched a good number of his current vids and not many of the past vids that he's done, but I think what I like about him is that he always likes at least a few games that are light hearted and have a lighter theme such as the one above. Some women do like games about robots, aliens, and war, and we can play them, but I'd like to say we get more pleasure out of games that are light like Yamatai and not so harsh like Gloomhaven. Not saying Gloomhaven is bad or that I wouldn't play Gloomgaven because I would surely give it a try, but I honestly just get more out of a game when it has a lighter, friendly theme. That's what I meant when I said I appreciate Sam's opinions or views on games.

[@EyalItsik]

This game is indeed cute, but I enjoy 7 Wonders much more.

[@samg8801]

Eyal Itsik Sure; but 7 wonders takes a heck of a lot longer to set up, play, and put away. Tow different games for different collection slots. Though recently 'Greed' has taken my 7 wonders slot for under 6 players.

Sam the Man!

[@EclecticCamel]

I like this game, but it isn't as innovative as 7 Wonders.

[@Deokiev]

TheGreatHamEl Do you realize this was out before 7 Wonders?

[@EclecticCamel]

Deokiev Oh, I was totally trolling.
