Fika - cozy coffee shop, or conniving competition?

Wow, you nailed this game on the head! 100% agree. You did a great job giving context to the game and an overview of the rules. Plus the married couple vibe is so nice.

Thanks! We're all about playing games as a family - with and without our kids. Our goal is to show that in all our videos, and also pinpoint who will most enjoy each game.

Funfact, in hungarian "fika" means "snot". No it has no other meaning. Just the goo in your nose.

[@FamilyGamersAA]

Wow, very different than its meaning in Swedish!

Surprised a negative review still got 3 stars. You guys may be too nice.

[@FamilyGamersAA]

Well, the game isn't bad. It's just so different from what we expected, that it left us with a negative taste in our mouth. Some people don't care about theme :)

@@FamilyGamersAAThanks for the review. We care about theme :-) As it happens we have an audience that enjoys their meaty games in lovely outfit. This may be a niche but there is definitely room for it. I for instance am not in fantasy or war themes. If Fika looked like Riftforce, some people would be less confused about it for sure. 😂 Does that make Fika look bad? I don’t think so.

@@boardgamecircus Thanks so much for swinging in! Like we said, there is a lot of game to like here which is why we wouldn't call it a negative review - But we had to address the difference between our expectations and reality because it was jarring for multiple folks at TFG. If that works for some gamers, awesome! It's all about the fun.

It is such an amazingly mean game. I love playing it on BoardGameArena. Because it is so short, I don't mind how aggressive it is. Not a family game.

The audio to this video is not very good. Sounds like you’re in a cave or tunnel.

[@FamilyGamersAA]

We know 😥 After we did all the filming, we found out the mic was not connected properly.

[@Alex90680]

@@FamilyGamersAA I’m glad. I watched your other videos and the audio was a marked improvement
