Which Azul is your favorite? Have you played them all? Which one would you want to try?
@andyliebermann52442 жыл бұрын
I've got the original and summer pavilion. I can't pick a favourite but my wife definitely prefers the original. I haven't played Sintra, it seemed silly to get a stained glass game when I already have Sagrada. Queen's Garden looks neat, something a little different.

Recently AZUL mini became the no-brainer I think. It's not just a travel game done right. It's a travel version of AZUL done right and, at a much lower pricepoint, the best bang-for-buck way to get your azul on right now.

Base Azul is the best, Queens's Garden is my favorite. I love the elegance of the original game. But after playing it a trillion times I enjoy the challenge of something meatier, which is what Queen's Garden offers.

You guys having all four makes the completionist in me so happy. We only own Summer Pavilion and absolutely love it. I’ve played the original on BGA as well. Honestly I’m very tempted to get the original physically because it’s so good. Ultimately I would love to have all 4 like you guys because wow! Looks so good. 👏🏻 loved the video!

Perfect video on prob my favourite series of games. My list would be 4. Stained glass - board pieces very fiddly and difficult to keep together. Wish they had difficult colour (green or purple) instead of clear white colour tile. 3. Original - great first game and wouldn't change anything 2. Summer pavilion - love the wild tile aspect and getting tiles from central board as rewards for achieving things 1. Queens garden - love the colour and picture elements. Although def wish only had 1 version of each colour with maybe pink or teal added instead.

I own the original Azul and Queen's Garden! They are both great and pretty different despite being of the same gerne. My family loves the Azul series, original is more friendly for non-gamers, QG is a bit harder. I was wondering if Summer Pavillion is a must have or should I skip it? What game do you suggest which is more like QG, beez or cascadia ?
@kovray4 ай бұрын
Hmm we haven’t actually played Beez so hard to say, but Cascadia is wonderful! Summer Pavilion is many people’s favorite, so if it appeals to you definitely give it a whirl!
@aba_dab_o Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the video! (Catching up.) So, yeah, own all of them. Only have played the first two. The original Azul has been played multiple times in gaming groups and in family get-togethers. Stained Glass I've played a few times in gaming groups. I think I still have to deem the original Azul the best. Hopefully will play Stained Glass more and the latter two, whenever the pandemic _significantly_ dies down and such. Probably the biggest catch to Queen's Garden is the tile colors, as tiles' colors and patterns in the first three are the same throughout, but color and pattern vary across all tiles in Queen's Garden and may be a colorblind issue to some.
