If your issue is searching the deck for cards. You take a chunk of the deck and limit yourself to those cards and play it by honor system. It works and makes the game so much more fun just remove the great narwhal and dragon tamer unicorn. Also ban teaming.
That was fun to watch! There’s something about culling board games and making space that is therapeutic. The Quest for El Dorado is one I’ve always been interested in getting because I’ve heard it’s good as a gateway game, so it’s good to hear your thoughts as well! It’s very kind of you to give away games!
It's good to see you guys posting again. I did recommend Tokyo Highway, we like it better than River Dragons (maybe because we don't have the large deluxe edition).
shelf space is precious... and with so many new games coming is hard to keep up. I know your games will get to homes that will get many plays and also gratitude towards you. BTW, is good to see you again
Thank you for the giveaway. You listed a lot of games that we have yet to play. The way we get rid of games is by sending to my brother, neighbor's, and my wife's boss.
I got rid of Rising Sun for the same reason...such a shame though as the minis are so awesome and it looks super fun. I also struggle to get rid of games...
Quick question, are they gonna mail me something or just give me the scenario trough e-mail? Because they ask me quite a lot for an e-mail like the postal code and exact appartment. Don't want to pay transport fees as I am in Romania and would cost an arm and a leg for essencially a freebie
Can you recommend board games for little kids? Our is 4, he can play ticket to ride (kids ed) and some simple card games (that are hard for him to get all cards in his little hand. Thanks and happy father’s day!
Fantastic video! I've been relying on Kallax for a long time but been struggling with the small games. I wish we had the Gnedby here in the US. It would fit perfectly in my gaming room. Will probably get a billy for the small ones
Every time you fill the windows on the right, your glassier is stuck until you reset him though, right? Essentially making you lose a turn. Do you still win with this strategy in that case?
New subscriber! Played the original Azul and recently just bought this one. I had a similar feeling about this game. One way to play and new learners will inevitably get destroyed if they don’t know or pick up the strategy quickly. I’m curious as to how you think this compares to the original Azul? I think the OG is slightly more diverse in strategy and more fun.
Great video! I've played Wingspan 4 times now and I love it more each time. The last group was a bit disengaged though which was a bummer. Know your audience when bringing games to a game night. The cross habitat strategy is one I'm going to bring with me next time.. It makes so much sense after hearing it.. I was like, Duh!! Thanks!
This strategy works on the app. I tried it with a couple players that knew what they were doing. I finished with 10 and 12 points in two games. They were 15 plus both times. Game was probably over in about 24/25 turns. I wanted to believe.
I'm looking to start my own channel of playing board games. the Channels been created (@chewyshouserules) now all I need is the equipment. this was a helpful video and that's how I found your channel. it's been a few years since you made this video what have you changed since then? what updated equipment are you using now?
Planning a trip and bringing Pandemic hot zone, Epic Galaxies, and Falling skies, Palm Island and Crystalo for solo play during layovers. Great video. Found some new ones. Thanks!
I guess 137 items on the bookcase for small games. I say items because there are expansions, variations as well. Probably between 130-160 games, so I say 137 if you need an exact number. Maybe even more if extra games behind them..
i have found the "when played, play another bird" birds to VERY rarely worthy of playing. there's so little value and they have so few points to boot. the exception is Great Egret worth 7 points. now the birds that let you get a free "play a bird" action repeatedly are a different story - very powerful, do NOT pass these and play them like Common Moorhen
honestly when pokemon celebrate 25th anniv im not a fan but i enjoy watching youtubers unboxing celeration packs, cases etc, made me to purchase some... in MTG the game i love seem like i'm in a wake watching youtubers unboxing loots.. no offense its not you as in all youtubers opening 30th anniv seems frustrated even the one pulled lotus no happiness at all ...
I honestly hate this game, its so boring and frustrating . It always ends up the same way, one person gets close to their win con and everyone else has to stop trying to win to focus on fating the winning player so the game grinds to a halt for several turns and God forbid if thats you who is winning cause you will be buried under so many fate cards you may as well just give up
Another good strategy as the game moves along is take birds that you think your opponent wants even if you don't need it. You can usually tuck it and it can be worth setting an opponent back + a point for the cost of 1 draw. Also some of the birds you talk about let everyone do something and if your opponent is food poor (for example) don't activate if you have resources you need. Basically the opposite of your strategy - try to steal your opponents' turns if you can afford to
Such a cool couple, strangely relaxing video to watch even though the reviewer is visibly unhappy! Will subscribe because I love this couple, but still at a loss for some good looking gaming chips 🤷🏻♂️
06:18 Those are the old Collectors Edition prices being shown. These cards are not going to be sold, they're being given away. I spent nothing on them and they hold no value for me.
