But this review was so good I added this to my wish list!

@carlthompson170 9 месяцев назад

This review sold me on this game, and I'm so grateful for it. Hansa is now one of my all-time favorite titles. Quinns doesn't even mention the dinner plate action tokens, which add a whole extra layer to it. I used to disregard them until I saw that it could be a winning strategy to run around collecting those.

Props to you for shining a spotlight on this gem. I feel like So Very Wrong About Games made a massive service to the boardgaming community by championing Hansa Teutonica enough that it got traction with the wider scene of prominent reviewers, now including SUSD. I've played this game with at least 20 people in different settings by now, and so far I've not met a single person who disliked the experience.

@David-ym2vk 11 месяцев назад

Been listing to So Very Wrong About Games for years now. It’s nice to see them gaining traction and appreciated by others. I also first heard about Hansa Teutonica from them and and it fell flat the first time my group played it. After being confused about the mediocre reception, I watched some play through videos and realized we got some rules wrong and I’m now eager to get it back to the table.

I can confirm those last moments. Someone broke this out at our LGS awhile back and after we overcame the initial shock of the teach we had a pretty good time. However there was a lot of frustration and knowing what you're doing in this game gives you an incredible edge. The person who brought it wiped the floor with us.

So so pleased you’ve covered this, triply so that you love it as much as I do! When I was first introduced to it a friend described it as “quintessentially euro” which I think is apt and also a huge complement. It’s everything I love about euro’s, how the game is in the rich interaction of the players within the rules; chock full of interesting decisions, and crammed into an unbelievably concise play-time.

Thank you so much Quinns, this is flat out the best board game review I have ever watched.

Your review gave me the courage to try it out and for that I am very grateful.

Nice, I just introduced this game to my friend last week. Thought I was going to lose but squeaked out a victory last second by rushing an end of the game through VP and upgrades. Really enjoyable game that is great with 3 or 5 players. Super tight but also rewards being "picked on" as well, which is neat because most Euros don't have that type of interaction.
