Review Scores
10 - A "Perfect" Game. This is a near-impossible score to achieve. These games will score a Platinum award.
9 - Excellent. I wouldn't question having this in my collection. These games will score an Excellence Award. Slight issues in the game, but they are minor.
8 -Amazing. Some issues; the gameplay is excellent, and I would love to have it in my collection. Games scoring at least 8.5 will be given a Recommended Award.
7 - Good. - This Game hits on many positive points for me but has some drawbacks that hold it back from being a Great/Amazing game. The gameplay also starts to waiver regarding who might like this game style.
6 - OK - Average score for games. The gameplay is fun and would be OK playing, but it's not something I need in my collection.
5-Decent-Bottom Tier of Average Games. The gameplay is mediocre and needs to be more engaging. "Take it or leave it." It will most likely not stay in a collection long.
4 - Poor - These games are difficult to recommend. The gameplay could be more engaging, or rulebook issues make tabling an issue. It's not good, but I might play again, depending on the situation.
3 - Bad - An unenjoyable experience. I won't play this game again.
2 - Very Bad - It's worse than Bad.
1 - Awful - This has to be a joke on the players.

I have only played #Expeditions at 2 players, and only a few times. I actually really enjoyed it, except it is quite fiddly and you are 100% right, bumping the board throws everything off!

@Maynerd 2 месяца назад

#Expeditions I got the game for 1-2 players so I'm glad to hear your score is higher for that player count. Haven't cracked it open yet, looking forward to it.

@adamnikles7335 2 месяца назад

I've never played Scythe but love the artwork that game has. Similarly, I felt the artwork was also intriguing in this game. It's too bad the game mechanics don't seem to stack up. Thank you for your video! #Expeditions

@Magton-et2uo 2 месяца назад

Haven't played #Expeditions yet. Thanks for the review!

@Theplaysthet 2 месяца назад

Ive definitely heard very mixed things about Expeditions so its stopped me from trying it. I play a lot of solo games but im not sure this fits for me. Thanks for the review!

@dcarpenter2130 2 месяца назад

I have not played #Expeditions yet, but looking forward to a playthrough!

@Javg1211 2 месяца назад

This seems interesting, I have been meaning to try Scythe and the fact that #Expeditions shares some ideas with it could be interesting I appreciate your honesty here tho, it's easy to just recommend everything, or even only cover games you know are instant hits, thank you for that!

@Amadre278 2 месяца назад

I was initially underwhelmed by Expeditions, but the more I’ve played it, the more I’ve grown to really enjoy it. I’ve played a lot as a solo game, but I’ve played it at two and three players at least a couple times each, and I enjoy all of those player counts, too. In the end, I appreciate that I didn’t immediately feel wowed by it and that it grew on me. I think it means that I won’t quickly tire of it the way a new game that seems amazing on the first couple plays but can quickly feel tired.

@JoeHuddleston 2 месяца назад

We played it for the first time last weekend, at 5 players. I found it was a fine game. Not the best ever, but few games are. In our game, starting out people either camped the worker tiles for a couple of turns or started hoovering up the map tokens. I think that's probably why those two accomplishments (map tokens and worker count) are the same boast. By the mid game, everyone had however many workers they wanted and the worker tiles stayed vacant for most of the rest of the game.

I love #Expeditions in a different way of Scythe, great review!

@stuartshannon8561 2 месяца назад

my copy is still in shrink, and I haven't been able to sell it. this tells me so much about the game, already.

Interesting, what have you listed it ar

@georgecpp 2 месяца назад

#expeditions Mixed feelings from the community overall, so an easy, no FOMO skip from me! :)

@michaelmorgan2593 2 месяца назад

#Expeditions I just recently acquired Scythe and still need to play a few rounds of that game but this sequel is definitely on my wish list.

@manucol2291 2 месяца назад

#expeditions Thanks for the review. I don’t feel any draw to this one (never played it) but again thanks for the detailed review and opinion on this.

@tgeorgom 2 месяца назад

#Expeditions funny thing is that they sold it as a Scythe game but it does not even count as one, the art is the same, the fractions, and the conditions. But, in the end I have never played

@kitcarpo4745 2 месяца назад

Your honesty is tough. I don't like the theme in general but didn't want to pass on some good mechanics. I think I will pass. There are some reviewers that slam a game and then pledge in the same vid. U b a smart man.

@kurtwolffjr9727 2 месяца назад

I definitely would like to try Expeditions someday but it’s not a game on my want to buy list. I have always wanted to play Scythe though, I think I definitely prefer Scythe out of the two from my research on them. #Expeditions

@zachd6404 2 месяца назад

I have a bunch of stuff for Scythe so I will probably stick with it over #expeditions

@ms_hkam 2 месяца назад

#expeditions Great review! I mainly play 2 player games with my wife so this I got to definitely check out

@thebluemeeple 2 месяца назад

Appreciate the giveaways! #Expeditions

@armandovillarreal3554 2 месяца назад

#expeditions is a game I'm rly hoping to table, but don't own it yet. I thoroughly enjoyed Scythe and while I've heard mixed feedback on this one, I feel it's still worth a try. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

@mrthommo6551 2 месяца назад

I like the Scythe world so interested to try #expeditions at some stage.

@gord_the_rogue9012 2 месяца назад

#expeditions. One of these days I’ll get this one to the table.

@g3p3nk 2 месяца назад

I like Scythe, but I am skeptical about #expeditions so I have not given it a try yet. I guess I don't really need to rush on this one. 😄

@MerrillWhiteKalEl 2 месяца назад

Been very interested to try it. I actually do not care for Scythe, but since it is different that's why I want to try it. #expeditions

@louiseubank9371 2 месяца назад

#expeditions I also really wanted to like this game, I'm generally a big fan of Stonemaier games, and the gameplay just fell quite flat for me. Already out of my collection, by far the fastest I've ever moved on from a Stonemaier game.

@JasonRedeemed 2 месяца назад

I wanted to like this game so much. I was really hoping for something that double-clicked into the experience of the world and explored those encounter-type cards. But it really mismatches with it's theme and ideas. I'm not really sure how the mechanics mesh with the theme in this one. I love Scythe but feel Expeditions is not for me.

@cedriccharrois-durand3597 2 месяца назад

#expeditions is a game I'd like to try before I buy

@Noobwater 2 месяца назад

Scythe definitely over takes #Expeditions for me. Something about the tight resource management just feels so good over the handing build and playing from Expeditions.

@beornthebear9023 2 месяца назад

#expeditions I have only played once and I enjoyed it but honestly have been debating if it should stay in the collection just not sure it stands out

@Muageto 2 месяца назад

#expeditions I'd be interested in playing it but not owning. I liked Scythe but this one seemed a tad too different to me. Your review kind of reinforces my idea that I'd be happy to give it a try but not willing to buy it for that

@9SalaS1 2 месяца назад

The game didn’t pull me same as scythe did. Tried it once. Would play it again, but won’t add to my collection #expeditions

@BartBlackbeard 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the content. #expeditions

@MrB711 2 месяца назад

I feel the same. It’s way too long at 4-5 players

@maxwell6563 2 месяца назад

From the beginning and the game description the #Expeditions seems to be boring for me, but I still wanna try it to be sure I`m not missing the hidden sense and individual enjoyment of the game

@shawnturpin197 2 месяца назад

I played this with 5 players and literally had nothing useful to do on a third of my turns.

@picklebuckeye 2 месяца назад

I haven’t played #Expeditions but I have heard mixed things as well. Some people love it, some find it forgettable.

@jhedmana 2 месяца назад

#expeditions I thought about buying it but all the reviews I’ve seen are lukewarm. I’m still thinking about the original scythe.

@SPasley22 2 месяца назад

#expeditions This is another game on my list to try but not necessarily own.

@qwertypresser 2 месяца назад

@wtfserpico 2 месяца назад

@vanessar8056 2 месяца назад

this one *looks* cool on the table but I don’t think the gameplay is a big draw for me. Thanks again for the opportunity! #Expeditions

@MikeSubs176 2 месяца назад

#expeditions our group play at 5… and it was not a great experience at all for 3 hours

@Lost_vault_boy 2 месяца назад

I enjoyed Scythe, but it doesn’t get tabled a lot. #Expeditions didn’t really catch my attention.

@jasons.9389 2 месяца назад

#expeditions - just not for me. Great review!

@Copterman 2 месяца назад

Not interested in #Expeditions. I like Scythe a lot but selling it as I’ve played it out.

@allencolwell3140 2 месяца назад

#Expeditions I think it would be good solo

Omg I can't believe it. I have no words right now. Thank you so much

@rblnc 2 месяца назад

#Expeditions The art is not interesting to me, I also didn't like Scythe so I don't think I'll like this one too.

@siposbalint2000 2 месяца назад

Honestly I hated this game. I had a legit bad time playing it. Lots of text on cards, having to pick up cards in the middle every single time I want to look at them just to see what they do is really tiring. Balance is all over the place, while in the same time the combo potential is pretty minimal in the game. It feels like you do nothing for the vast majority of the game, or at least nothing meaningful and the arc of the game is always the same. I like Stonemaier games a lot, but this just isn't it chief. Production quality is great tho, but that doesn't counteract the fact that it's an uninteresting game for me

@CheddahSlammer 2 месяца назад

The reason I think, so may reviewers gave this game a very high rating, is because they got flown out to play it. Not sure what goes on during those, but I know they get food and have a really good time. I know people like Board Game Co say they can separate the game from the special experience, but can you really. There is a reason those that got flown out have generally positive ratings on this game, and its because their experience around the game was better, therefore the game seems better then it really is. Ratings from people that didn't get flown out, generally have your opinion on it, or even worse opinions. Not saying people intentionally trying to get you buy a game, I just think their being tricked by business tactics that make the experience of the game better, then if you were just playing at home.

@SamS-cb5ep 2 месяца назад

Board game co used to not like steam forge games. They started flying him out to events and now he suddenly gives every one of their new projects positive coverage….
