What's your favourite budget board game? 💸
Huzzah
25 dollars??
Skull's "four identical square cards" dealt to each player look surprisingly circular. 😀
Dang, that The Crew footage is a hell of a throwback!
Good list. Some other favorites include skull king, cockroach poker, no thanks, scout and Mascarade
I've been super interested in the crew since you guys posted your lets play, this year might be the year I finally pick it up 😄
I’ve already played a lot of these, but have never heard of A Fake Artist Goes To New York! May have to get it, it looks great for a quick warm up game or party game
Good show! Thanks for the suggestions!
I am surprised the crew made the list but inside job did not. The pitch line of "almost cooperative trick-taking game" got me immediately.
Quiddler is a personal fave – a word-building card game that's perfect for groups that enjoy crosswords, Scrabble, Wordle and the like. It's affordable, almost endlessly replayable, and balances strategy with the luck of the draw to keep it fair and accessible for players of all ages or abilities.
I will have to pick up the games that can be played by one person.
6:30 Pretty sure The Crew is a 2-5 player game.
Love Letter. Awesome, pocket sized game.
Sushi go,star realm,love letter are some others recomandation
Murder of Crows is a fun card game that doesn't break the bank. It's a Cluedo like murder mystery in which you have to assemble your deck to spell out the word Murder, fending off challenges from other players who may hold cards which foil your play and/or force you to rethink your strategy.
Interesting but not games I would have picked except Kingdomino.
Sea salt and paper is probably my all-time favorite, but one that's not in this video would be Vaalbara. Its a smaller, cheaper, quicker and less cut-throat version of libertalia.
