Mike is such a great addition to the Dice Tower.

[@AltarenGalil]

Mike and Zee are really bringing me back to these videos

[@loovtrain4520]

He’s changed the whole vibe… for the better.

[@EliteBeast]

Yeah Mike seems like a great guy to get a beer with. He’s got good banters and he’s light hearted about everything. Great dude

[@nicksims2827]

Agreed, I thought replacing Sam on these would be tough because he’s been Tom’s friend forever, but Mike seems like part of the furniture. He has such a great manner and I really respect his opinion - even when I don’t agree

[@jankogo]

@@nicksims2827 Heresy, I know, but for me I prefer Mike to Sam.

[@chaosinthechasm]

Tom, Zee, and Mike (and all The Dice Tower crew) - you're all awesome! Among other things, I appreciate Zee's wit and storytelling ability, Mike's cheese and thoughtfulness, and Tom's energy. My gaming tastes align more often with Mike, but everyone there has great taste. I want to shine on Tom, for a minute. Tom is the #1 reason I keep coming back to this channel, usually on the daily. Many other reasons to like the channel, but it wouldn't exist without Tom, so yeah. Tom's enthusiasm, drive, delivery, vast experience and knowledge, and just genuine good vibes are what, well...keep me coming back. It is interesting - Tom is older than me, but sometimes he seems like a big kid to me. You know, frequently that child-like energy will be tamped down in childhood, due to various reasons. Well, Tom's still got that energy. He's super upfront and confident with who he is, and where he's at, and I appreciate that vibe. I don't always appreciate that quality in people. If he was an upfront jerk, I wouldn't be writing this. Tom seems like a great boss (I envy the DT crew), father, and genuinely good person. I try to surround myself with people I look up to, so I’m happy to have you all as guests in my house frequently throughout the week. Keep up the honesty, thoughtfulness, great humor, and good vibes, and I’ll keep coming around. Cheers!

I had to defend myself to my wife for watching this the last couple of nights and told her that this is for me what grammies or Oscars are for other people. That Was okay to her. It was really enjoyable and I did laugh out loud some times. Keep up the good spirit and have a fun time

I said it last year and I say it again: It's not bad in any way, but it's still mindboggling how few games are 4-way crossovers.

What a great video. Zee and Mike ad libbing "this is how we do it" was gold...pure gold. Thanks for the smiles along with my morning coffee.

[@knitlobe1305]

Zee and Mike are literally the most funny people in any boardgame channels. They are so funny that it feels so natural,no need stupid face expressions, pretend stupid, I love they make clever jokes with face remain like poker face. There are so many other boardgame youtubers try so hard to be “funny”, acting weird but it just turn out to be cringy. If people not funny, dont try to be, just like Tom, he is not always funny, but its very likeable and enthusiastic, make me want to watch him all the time.

[@AhJong0]

Been watching the top 100s for many years and I think this has been the best format - kudos DT!

Love having Camilla on board (and Wendy too!)! So glad to feel represented in board game discussions and see a gal participating in the fun! Great addition to the Dice Tower! ❤️

[@gamegraves]

Can't wait for the A team!!!! Glad to join yall for another year

[@FemmeSensei]

Very diverse list...super awesome. I also love that you guys do the people's favorite because a lot of "enduring" titles end up there.

[@egoDEATH33]

You've all surpassed yourselves! What a great journey this top 100 was year. Thanks to the whole team. I really enjoyed it, the humour was great, the pie-ing, the jokes, awesome all of you. Nice one. 😄

[@RoanLauncher]

I watched all the videos and just want to say my thanks for the entertainment, I often laughed about the jokes between you guys, Zee and Mike were killing it. Love the pie(s) as well.

[@nathanielchambers8974]

One of the nice things about this hobby is the variety of interests and wants and love. There’s so many games on these lists where I just wanna go ‘really?!?’ but that’s a good thing. Like music, it’s all in the eye of the beholder. Games are art.

[@warbossd]

Tom is such a good sport. Hilarious entertainment guys. Good job.

[@BojanBrankov]

This was a ride! Always love watching these lists before bed! Good night guys and ladies

[@jahniedez6834]

Love these 4 people right here! Please stay on the dice tower forever- you guys are terrific!

[@wesleywoodbury3770]

Wonderful set of videos, love all the chatter describing why these games are in their top 10s... including the feedback on the Peoples Choice. Well done.

[@namelessfire]

While Zee's top 10 isn't the one I vibe with the most, I will say; his top 10 carries the most weight. Zee's does not get suckered in by new games very often. He likes what he likes and it takes a lot for something new to rank so highly. Marvel United making his number 8 is a big deal.

[@georgepap8512]

Not really .Like you said he likes what he likes and that's light games or medium light games that take 30-60 minutes and have tons of content and of course lot's of coops games. Also he loves 2 player games that combine the above things. Even though Marvel United is not a two player game is everything else (light and plays fast) so I would have been surprised if this game didn't make his top 100. I agree that his list is the most consistent year after year but I think you are viewing this from the wrong angle. Is more surprising that games like The Manhattan Project Energy Empire or Power Grid make or made his list for so many years ,that this year had a lot of Felds games and of course that after many many many years Fury of Dracula wasn't on Zee's list

[@Indubitably14]

Apart from his adoration of tile-laying games, his taste in games aligns the most with my own. That said, I'll never get into Marvel United. I can't overcome the chibi style and Tom's/Zee's rankings are *not* for the core box--so there's the CMON money pit of buying everything for the full experience.

[@Alloniya]

I agree

[@Alloniya]

@@georgepap8512partly agree. I think project Manhattan is good, and Dracula is not that great of coop vs one

[@philipprior9174]

Been watching the Dice Tower for years, and I completely agree with everyone talking about what a great addition Mike is to the team. Love these guys.

[@KeepersofFun]

Finally, there's a guy whose taste in games is very similar to mine, nice to hear you Mike!

[@Etency]

I love how board games are diverse enough and there's so many of them that these lists differ from person to person and even for 1 person it can differ depending on the day and mood. Thank you very much for introducing new and interesting games as well as mentioning ones worth getting that are older ( the Classics ). As someone who loves compiling a "Wishlist" but also not having enough money to buy all and also not enough time to do own research on most of these. It would REALLY help, if when describing the game or talking about it you could say, which player count it is meant for and what's it best at. It feels like you guys often do it but not for every game. I enjoy how everyone often chimes in and also say at which player count they like.

[@JustinandHanna]

Well done Tom. Preordered Ark Nova right after your first review. Can't wait to play!

[@Edward1140]

Does anybody else find themselves randomly singing the Mike DiLisio theme song? Thank you for the top 100. Excellent videos as always.

[@EvanHalbertDC]

I love Mike's reference to Stan Bush's "The Touch" repurposed for getting face-pied.

[@deanofgames4661]

I love that Mike sticks to his guns on Merchants Cove. It’s a great looking game that plays well solo or with multiple players. It’s fun without being too simple. I think it’s underrated (certainly among most at the DT)

[@mrbastos]

Makes me even more excited for my copy of Ark Nova to arrive. Still a bunch I gotta try from these lists.

[@davidwatkins1403]

Great set of lists really enjoyed them: firstly can I say how much I appreciate the new faces and voices on the Dice tower at the moment. Particularly Camilla and Wendy. Secondly am I the only person who is slightly put off by the phrase efficiency puzzle sounds to much like work to me.😁

[@robinett74]

Kinda crazy to see such a new game hit #1 on Toms list. Love too see Abyss on Zees list.

[@devinology7]

It's amazing that I have well over 500 games and out of all 4 top 10 lists I own only 3 of the games. And I haven't played many more than that either. I haven't played a single game of Zee's top 10, and I often like games he likes. There are just so many good games out there.

[@Manny-M]

LOVE that you're still keeping strong with Outlive, Mike. It was my favourite game I didn't own and was a grail game for a long time (Collector's Ed) until I got lucky and jumped on a copy being sold by someone locally that wasn't even unpunched and for about the same price as the retail game! There's so much I love about this game, and it's a true hidden gem that doesn't get the love it deserves. The tension in timing out on the main board and the puzzle in which strength workers you're going to move where, and when is just brilliant, as is how your turns then tie into the next turn because you need to be mindful of blocking yourself. Then there's the whole bunker phase and making the most out of building that out while ensuring your people are looked after. Oh so good! I agree that the CE does suffer from component fiddliness, especially with the workers, but I'm going to paint them up next to help alleviate the issue, as I can't go back to using the meeples, even if they are clearer.

[@Manny-M]

Here's me thinking I've been watching the 2023 Top 10 list... like an idiot!

When A Team does their vids, even though People's choice is done, I hope Tom, Zee and Mike take turns to interact with the other team during the list like the A Team did with these lists (was that clear? So many lists...). Seeing you guys interact and anticipate, particularly Tom who just loves lists so much, with each other, is the joy of these vids. Maybe instead of People's choice, Tom Zee Mike can make quick shortlists of games they think will be on Roy Chis Wendy Camila and bring them on?

[@BlueGiantMedia]

Dwellings of Eldervale IS being reprinted. The company has already said as much, and it is listed as coming by one of the major US distributors as well.

[@petergross7235]

Awesome show as usual guys! Really looking forward to the A team edition too. I wish I understood why the people like 7 wonders (duel) so much. It never did anything for me. But the other 9 choices of the people and all of the guys lists were rock solid.

[@joannabarry5236]

I am flabbergasted that Arnak didn't make anyone's list but the people's. I get them liking Dune Imperium more than Arnak, but Arnak isn't even on the list!?!?

[@RaynorJ2]

It’s being reprinted along with going to retail. You can sign up for their newsletter for more updates. Peter Vaughn did a lot to push this game, and there has been a delay in getting this game out; but it’s still coming. Hopefully many others can enjoy this game because it’s amazing.

[@jahniedez6834]

BLUE MOON CITY!!! One of the first board games I bought when getting back into the hobby way back when... Great lists guys!

[@tomburke5311]

Interesting list. there are some games here that we like, some we don't, and some (a lot) we don't know! One of the things we (my wife and I) prefer is a game where you don't know who's won until after it's finished; we don't like games where it's first to an arbitrary finishing line. So we love Terraforming Mars and dislike Viticulture. We've also realised that we don't get on with co-operative games, so we've never liked (or been able to get anywhere with) Spirit Island, whereas we like Duel.

[@meatballmeeple9347]

Great list everyone! Just a small sidenote on outlive minis that are too hard to tell, the number of people on the minis is the same as the strength of the mini and there is a large number on the back of the mini. I know its not as easy to tell apart as a meeple with a distinguished number printed on, but there are visual cues that youl get used to :) So strenght 4 mini has 4 people and, strength 3 has 3 people on it, in case you missed that part :)

[@youreatowel1103]

Spirit island is the most amazing puzzle. The invaders are predictable and linear in power. The spirits grow exponentially. I love the idea of stalling and treading water until you can finally make some big moves and take back control of the island. It's so rewarding to succeed and such a brain burner I feel incredibly accomplished after a win.

[@DaveB]

Invaders also ramp - explore deck has levels

[@Bonzoso21]

I've only played base Spirit Island and loved its puzzle, but some others in my group were demoralized by the difficulty and prone to paralyzing AP. I just picked up Branch and Claw, which I've read--in terms that are probably a bit hyperbolic--"changes Spirit Island from a puzzle to a game." I'm excited to see how it feels with some more randomness and tactical decisions so it's not "just" an optimization puzzle.

[@uplift-yourdailypickup6424]

Kudos for putting Jamaica in top 5 Zee. It may be a family-weight game but it's solid and never gets old. It's just fun.

Wingspan + Oceania is great! it's just very approachable. It's got endless replayability. It's beautiful...and FUN! Defo in my top 10.

[@levirichardson7848]

Blows my mind that Dune Imperium and Lost Ruins of Arnak are constantly compared. They are so different and both so good. Not even apples to apples.

[@revimfadli4666]

Maybe it's because both involve worker placement & deckbuilding? Though Dune's integration is better IMO, and Arnak's deckbuilding is disappointingly weak(as in, barely has any reason to be deckbuilding instead of handbuilding. Yes the cards can be impactful). Still great games tho

[@GlennDeBlock]

very limited amount of workers (2 in both?). lots of cards, multiple tracks to go up on. i definitely can see the comparison.

[@garylangford6755]

Yeah I agree dune mops the floor with arnak

[@Bonzoso21]

Yes, they both combine the same 2 core mechanisms, but I think the reason they are compared so much and will be for at least the next few years is because they released at the same time. Very few gamers are going to buy 2 games that close together that fill the same space in their collections, so we all sort of compared them back in 2020 and bought the one that had that extra little thing that aligned more to our taste. It's a bit like how two different publishers released Back to the Future games at the same time...you'd have to be a MEGA fan of the IP to consider them both.

[@levirichardson7848]

@@Bonzoso21 I get it. It’s gonna be a thing. I bought them both pretty close together and played them both several times. They may both have cards and workers but the FEEL very different and that’s what makes them different. I don’t get that feeling of chaining actions to just keep taking turns in Dune. Because you literally can’t. You are limited to workers and that’s it. There are even times you may choose to pass on placing a third worker in order to buy first. Arnak is about extending your turn as much as possible by making choices that build off of each other. Like I said, I get that it’s going to be a thing but they are just so different. I guess it’s also probably people who haven’t played both games that are usually the ones making the comparison. No biggie. It’s just games.

[@DaveB]

Based on putting Spirit Island #1 and going to bat for Arnak, I want to see Camilla's top 100!

[@Patronux]

that's right! I'm very curious now

[@Mark-jagger]

I agree. I’d love to see her Top 100. Glad she stuck up for Arnak. The game doesn’t seem to get much love on the Dice Tower top lists for some reason but is on many peoples lists, both Top 10 of the year and all time. I’ve always found that a little strange. I enjoy both Dune and Arnak equally, for different reasons, so it just seems weird. Hopefully we’ll see a Top 100 series for Camilla, Roy, Wendy, and Chris. It would be very enjoyable I’m sure. Good personalities and chemistry there. I believe that there is talk of that depending on their fundraiser.

[@deanofgames4661]

More Camilla can never be a bad thing.

[@RenbroNL]

She is nice and all that. And its great she likes spirit island. But go watch her comment on the BGG top 100. Most games she hadn't played. And a fair bit off those were because they weren't pretty enough.

Tom, no Heroscape, Dice Masters, or Star Wars: The Queen's Gambit in your top 100? I haven't seen many of your other top 100 bring you the same excitement you've shown for these 3 games. (Apologies if you did list these and I missed them). Thanks for all of your content!

[@AzureRaiden]

Breaking games has stated multiple times on the dwellings of eldervale forum that they are working on a reprint of all dwellings of eldervale content. I believe it's mostly a retail reprint so it should be more widely available sometime this year, but some of the kickstarter content will be available most likely from their website. I'm assuming on that last bit cuz they haven't clarified. They said to keep an eye out for a newsletter releasing sometime soon.

(Possibly excluding those that were designed for a specific player count and just have some additional crutch of a rule to make them playable with fewer players ... like Captain Sonar or XCOM The Board Game for example ... or 2-player games that have a solo-variant and are simply better with 2... ^^)

[@Indubitably14]

You still have people say "no, Captain Sonar is fine at 6 or 7" but I have to argue that it's clearly best at 8

A guy in my group got the tiles for Death May Die printed at 150% and laminated. Even with that, towards the end of the game the rooms get to be jam packed with minis. Awesome game though; like many I ended up liking it way more than I thought I would.

Hooray for 51st state... Underappreciated game (don't have the master box, but have all expansions individually)

[@codym6376]

So, if you only play the game Gloomhaven digitally, does it still count as your favorite board game?

[@AmassGames]

Tom mentioned the app for Gloomhaven to play it, is it coming to android? (The game not the helper apps)

Top 10 Games that Play Better at *Higher* Player Counts is a great idea. I'll chime in with mine... Pandemic (or Forbidden Island). These two feel similar to me, in that the 3-player and 4-player games feel similar (enough), but the 2-player game feels like a different game (to me). I've thought about it.. the only thing that I can come up with is that not every player (in a 3- or 4-player game) has to cure a disease or find a treasure. In a 2-player game of Pandemic, both players almost have to cure two diseases, or you're toast.

[@IBTPORTUGAL]

Off topic quick question. Medium weight navegation theme: Endeavor or Francis Drake? Wich is more interactive and fun? Help me, please.

[@GettinJiggly]

Now we need a Project Elite live gameplay with Tom and Camila.

[@Rkm0504]

I'm with you, Camilla. Team Arnak! 😂 (both are great though)

[@bruceschwering5919]

Same! Arnak 4 life

[@joannabarry5236]

Same Arnak is awesome

[@sorrowsong08]

I agree, I don't like the combat aspect in Dune. The exploration and combinations in Arnak are also amazing

Want to speed up a game of spacebase? Play with two12 sided instead of 6 sided. You can add or subtract the dice to get to a single number and of course use them individually.

[@Welchy-TV]

Will there be a list published of everyone's top 100 games?

[@danielm.5132]

As far as I know there will be some kind of second print run for Dwellings of Eldervale this year.

[@ericw4377]

Dwellings of Eldervale second edition is available for preorder March 14th, 2022.

[@ryanroehrig54]

Castles of Burgundy is my absolute favorite

[@sting7789]

Unmatched and Horrified are my favorite board games.

[@BodgeAttack]

I want Mike's rap at the start to be my ringtone.

[@andredavids9324]

Outlive, Smartphone Inc and Pandemic Iberia deserve all the love it was given. Excellent games!!
