Cascadia ended up being my game of the summer. I brought it up north specifically so I could start the day with a cup of coffee, playing solo while sitting out by the lake 🤗

Jenna seems to love drafting. So here are a few more drafting games. Floriferous is drafting from a grid, where most cards are visible, and your choice each step determines turn order. We all know Jenna likes Atheneum Mystic Library, part drafting, part patern building. Planted Nature vs Nurture is fun pland themed drafting game (Target only, so not in Canada yet). Herbaceous is push your luck set collection game. Great fun list Jenna.

YESSS! It's such a weird thing! I think I mentioned in the video but I also think because new cards are constantly coming out, if you lose on one card you just move on to the next. Also getting a coin for having at least one token on the card helps. 😊 Such a wonderful little game.

@@TheBoardGameGarden Everdell with a few tweaks is definitely more calming. That Seasons Decks variant that i mentioned on the Discord really helps to get your engine going in the beginning of the game and then its more fun to do things. some of these expansions are really helpful too, but we can talk more on that on the discord. as for Ugly Griffin, yes its a solo only Button Shy, and they are coming out with a whole expansion pack in 2023 as well. Ive only played the base but I love it.

I agree with Rolling Realms, if you are playing either solo or with players who already know the realms. Because otherwise, you have to teach each of the 3 realm cards before each round, which, to me, disrupts the flow of the game - making it NOT a “comfort game”.

Orchard and Grove are quick to setup and quit to play, in this regard I would also mention Rune. In regards to whatever and write I can recomend Explorers and for drafting the elusive Comic Hunters is a game I like to play.

What defines a comfort game for me tends to be one where I am in comfortable silence enjoying planning or strategising, without too much stress. Fields of Arle and Stardew Valley are two of my top comfort games, played solo at least (apparently I find farming themes comforting?). Very relaxing and satisfying. For 2p with my girlfriend, our favourites are Hadrian's Wall, Herbaceous, Viticulture, and Tang Garden (most of these are not comforting at higher player counts however!). Wingspan also, regardless of player count.

I'm unable to rank my own games, I love all of them the same way! Among them, these are the games easy to put on the table, to play and which have nice or even beautiful art, or satisfying material: Dice Hospital and its expansion which is very easy game, quickly played. Lueur (I love the art!) - I don't know the English name of the game, maybe it's the same? all roll/flip/.. n" write (Welcome to your new home, Welcome to the moon that I prefer, Doodle Islands, Cartographers, Demeter...) Calico & Cascadia (I love them both the same way) Savannah Park Akropolis Patchwork (and the solo Automa cards) and light Uwe Rosenberg games (Cottage gardens, etc.) Tiny Towns (and Fortune expansion) Herbaceous Spirits of the forest Taverns of Tiefenthal English gardens Baron Voodoo Iguaçu (or Iquazù, Haba - the material is so pleasant to play with!) Chakras (satisfying to play, nice art and boards) Palm Island, Orchard, Sprawlopolis and Chain Food Island (I love those little pocket games!) Now that I saw your video, I feel like to play Tiny Towns, it's been a long time since it has been on the shelf! The expansion introducing money in the gameplay is funny. I just received "Honey Buzz" this week, I think it's a good game, according to most points of view (again, the art is awesome!) Thank you for the vidéo, I have more or less the same tastes as you !

It actually hasn't been released to retail yet! It just released kind of at Essen in Germany just this past weekend but it's not in game stores yet. I believe it is going to retail in late October. 😊👍🏻

I was surprised PARKS didn't get to this list.

It was close! But I do find the trail worker placement a bit stressful. Such a beautiful game. 😊

@@TheBoardGameGarden Yes, PARKS is a very tight game - which I ❤, but I couldn’t consider it one of my “comfort” games. Has anyone played Trails, btw? How is that game? I don’t know much about it.

Parks is quaint and quite lovely at 2p - but becomes restrictive and stressful at higher player counts. Definitely not relaxing at 4 or 5p.

MIYABI DEFINITELY NEEDS MORE LOVE! Seriously: the lack of attention this game gets is criminal. What a great game!

I 100% agree! I think it may be because HABA tends to be known for kids games and Miyabi is often overlooked. I'm hoping to get the word out about it more! Such a great tile placement game! 😊

23:18 Have you played Sagrada? - That is one of my comfort games! If so, what do you think of it? To me, that game is very sudoku-like! (And I find it most similar to Calico - with it being tight and because of the restrictions, rather than Azul, btw).

DO NOT PLAY ON THIS SITE!!! As soon as you become the best player in any game, you are immediately given a ban without explanation. Just so others have a chance to be the best too. The administration ignores all the problems!

I’m certainly not a dog lover but it looks like a cool game and I do like the Cat Lady game for sure …
