You are way more experienced in board games than I am. My favorites are Betrayal at the House on the Hill and Carcassone.I've never played it but TI lore is incredible. I get chills listening to it and think it should be a much bigger media franchise
I love Rising Sun. I love Gloomhaven. It's amazing.
My TOP-10 Board Games printed in POLANDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIBj9egXP4g
Is TI worth to play with only three players?
Dominion? I'm out. kthnxbye.
Edit: Okay I lied. I stuck around because I was curious.
On FF and Arkham LCG – I almost wish the fans did not ask for one box solution cuz FF cucked all the fans by making not one, not three, but two boxes for every campaign (one for investigator and one for the campaign, practically forcing players to buy both), and putting a price point on the boxes which is significantly costlier than the previous model. lol.
Gloomhaven is awesome. Finished the whole campaign. Waiting for Frosthaven. I find this aspect of Gloomhaven super fun.. retiring and unlocking new boxes, taking new characters on the same journey and discovering new ways to play with them. I think that's part of the point of the game.
Nice list, but no Spirit Island? What made you bounce off it? This list feels like it should have been in there.
Love your top 10 ! We have very similar tastes and the same of being a player rather than a collector. Interested at knowing what is the rest of your top 20. And happy new year 🙂
Just had the courage to dive into kdm on Christmas. And I love it. Though we are proxy a few minis. I love it breaks up the normal "kill a monster for the bigger sword to kill a bigger monster" by making the resources matter more by having the settlement/tribe next generation
Kdm is fine for some teenagers depending on how emotional stable and mature they are and know how to sensor things they dont want to be exposed to.
Have you played Dominant Species? You need to play Dominant Species!
Is that a Boston accent?
Scrolling through YouTube and just found your channel. Great list. I'm a subscriber now!
Root, Blood Rage, Scythe, and Arkham Horror LCG are all in my top ten, as well. All the others (except Dominion) are close to my top 10 OR top of my most wanted list. Great tastes! New to my list is Dune: Imperium. HUGE recommend from me!
Root over all!
I standby Viticulture should be on this list
No mention of Catan.
0/10
Comments for the comment throne!
Likes for the like god!
You missed Ticket to Ride! It's such a fun game!
So, question, does Bloodrage have a clean and crisp design?
Top 10 TI memes please
Your top five is a great list (though I have not played KDM), I wish my friends would give them a chance.
Wish I could play back to back games of TI4 🥺
Another fantastic Eric M Lang game, "Chaos in the old world"
It's amazing, it's the best, it was released in 2009 and hasn't been available for purchase in forever. So good, love it. Get a used copy maybe, it's a fantastic game
Also! Sidereal Confluence

People: TI vs. WH40K power comparssion? 40K wins.
Mahacts: Hold my gene-beer, slave…
Nice. I gotta get on some of those. We have the same taste.
"put TI on the shelf for a couple of months." I can't even get my group to play once every two months. Sucks being a boardgame fan in a group of D&D fanatics.
Also: it may be a normie game these days, but I still love Axis and Allies. The mega game you can build between the European and Pacific editions is incredible. It was the game that got me into the hobby.
"Gloomhaven sat on my shelf for a while now, I don't think I've even played this year … "
.
Me neither, man. I've not played Gloomhaven in all of 2022 either! =-(
I guess you recorded this late 2021, but still funny 🙂
Great video! Well, so far. Only 16 more minutes remaining now.
SCPT tournament is kicking off. I'm sure there will bo opportunites to guest commentate!
Dominion is the grandfather/founder of deck building games?? Huh? Wouldn't this be Magic the Gathering?
You definitely have a "type" when it comes to board games. 🙂
