I have watched pretty much all your videos and i have got a few games from recommendations and love them. I really want to try hooky, bottom of the 9th and sheepy time! You guys have great taste
Fun list, can't wait for the rest! Played scout before and I like it
Great list so far yall! Love it. Excited to see what comes next, and where some beloved games fall.
@Foster the Meeple …At the 18:25 mark, Jeff comments about a few unbalanced factions in the game. In with the rules is a reference sheet that tells you how to fix the factions with the balance issues!!
All you gotta do is completely read the rules!
Hi guys, love your list. Can't wait for next ten.
My 50-41:
41 The Prodigals Club
42 Tobago
43 Mind MGMT: The Psychic Espionage “Game.”
44 Atlantis Rising (Second Edition)
45 Blood Rage
46 Terraforming Mars
47 The Pursuit of Happiness
48 Autobahn
49 Jamaica
50 The Networks
Another great video – thanks! I got Sea Salt and Paper because of hearing you talk about it – love it. Which expansion would you recommend for Tapestry? I just got it with the modified factions and I’m so excited to play after hearing you talk about it in this video and at other times. Thank you.
Right now my favorite game of all time has been Libertalia: Winds of Galecrest
All of these countdown videos need B-roll of the games, and you guys always do a great job of that. A lot of the audience may have never seen the games on the table before so the footage is awesome. Great work as always.
Great list
Thanks!
Gotta try sea salt and paper and scout. I don’t have many card games and those seem to travel the best and non gamers like card games
Oh baby here we go!
picked up Baseball Highlights w/all the expansions & the playmat off of ebay a few months ago and have been trying to get the wife to give it a chance. no luck yet😕
I really can't wait to watch this. I've enjoyed other channels doing this. Also, Jeff – new hat????
This is more like of Jamie question my wife and youngest are looking to get into Final Girl they are wondering what good why to start
Your personal interests and lived experiences have led you have different than tastes mine! How dare you! 😉
Gotta give 3 Ring Circus a try. I will play Baseball Highlights with ya Jeff. Love the small box card game love.
Great video! My fiance says "this is why I don't watch with you because I want ALL the games." She says your hair is super cute Jamie and Jeff is tripping me up wearing his hat forward.
A quick fun fact about Three Sisters: it is based on native culture and their agriculture. They would grow beans, squash and corn afther they ask to the "creator" for food since they could not grow on their land. The "creator" gave them those three plants. They would name this trio: The Three Sisters. 🙂
Hey guys, I think a cool idea for these top 50 would be to add the year they were released next to the publisher! This way we can see some of these older games compare to newer ones!
That's quite an achievement plaything over 1,000 times. Most people don't do that in a lifetime. "We rank with our hearts and not our brains sometimes…" I'm with ya. I see a cool component, or great artwork, and I want that game. But, I will usually watch a playthrough first before I pull the trigger. I've learned the hard way, that a cool board may not mean a cool game. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on 50 – 41!
Loving your channel. Just accidentally discovered it when I was scrolling through the home page and wondered why Epic Lloyd was making videos about board games. I soon realised my mistake 😅
Scout is THE game to put in your jeans pocket, before you run out to visit friends or family who play cards or simple family games. I really like Startups, also by Oink Games, now that I've read the condensed rules on BGG, which fixed the mistakes we were making. It's not better than Scout, but it has some strategy to discover, which is very subtle, and changes from the beginning, middle, and end of each round.
Love these top games lists, and am looking forward to the rest of your top 50! Jeff, you are making me want to try one of these coin games one day, and Jamie so happy that you like Brian Both so much…great game.😃
Jamie – have you played Halls of Hegra yet? … that game is 🔥🔥
You also need to check out David Thompson’s “Lanzerath Ridge” (DVG)
I love the red bull comment you might even be awake till 11
I am shocked by Jamie's list compared to yours, like ones I knew would be on your list like memoir 44 didn't make you list and it made Jamie's. That is so cool! It just goes to show you how many great games y'all are playing even compared to ones we know you love. I mean some really moved. Some of the games were totally flipped the way I thought. Great list as always! I really want 3 ring Circus.
Jeff always bringing up these GMT games all the time, makes me want to start trying some! Solid list so far, looking forward to seeing what else makes the cut.
Exiting start to your top games list. Thanks 😊
You guys should check out The British Way. 2 player COIN game that can be played quickly and you get 4 different maps/scenarios in the box.
The Castles of Burgundy is such an elegant game and Stefan Feld is an absolute all-star so I would love to try The Oracle of Delphi 🙂
Also: completely agree that Devir is just on a roll!
Grabbing my popcorn now! I'm SO stoked for this!!!! 🍿
Have you guys played Ierusalem from Devir? Great game as well. And Jeff, seeing that you like 4X, and if you haven’t already, you gotta try Voidfall. It. Is. Amazing.
fun list !
i’m also glad to hear a wargamer who plays coin games has a hard time remembering all those combos in 3 sisters – whew, i’m not the only one!
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!
The monsters in Oracle of Delphi should be spread out more. 2-3 monsters per grey/mountain hex in a 4p game.
I have YET to punch and get my Age to the Comics to the table! It looks so good but I just haven't had the time to learn it yet! happy to see it on this list!
Love the list! Can’t wait for the next vids.
Y’all ever played World’s Fair 1893? I usually don’t like area control but this game is simple (I taught it to a non-gamer in less than 10 minutes) and it works so so well for 2 players.
Yay I have been looking forward to this year's series! Definitely helps with the January blues. I am also recently new to Orleans and said the same whilst learning it – I think I'm going to love it and did. Such a good game! 😊
Appreciate the b-roll. These lists are probably biggest views of the year for most channels so nice to see that you all put the effort to bring some pizzazz to the list. Was surprised numbsters didn’t crack Jaime’s top 50
thank you so much 😊
LOVIN the Nacho reference towards the end….😂
YAS look forward to this all year long! Cheers! Can't wait for the rest of the series!
I dont think ive played any from these lists. But own a couple that Im yet to play like Scout. Im def keen to learn more about 3 ring circus and 3 sisters and the salt and pepper game.
I very much appreciate the context disclaimer… I agree that these lists can be fluid 🙂
Have y'all played Distilled? It's funny because the way y'all talk about Kanban and use it to talk about games is how we talk about Distilled.
stonemaier just released the new revised tapestry cards this week!
"We don't like what you like" 😂😂
Oh boy, Brian Boru!! I love that game, which is apparently not a popular opinion.
I started playing Sea Salt & Paper because of your recommendation and now I'm hooked. I'd love to try Hooky, but I doubt there would be many people around me that would play it.
Just got Castles of Burgundy as a gift for Christmas! Cant wait to play it
