Facial hair totally changes the look of a person.

That's his younger brother.

Oh man, that facial hair is adding SO many years!

I'm one of those very challenged with moustaches, large frames, hair color and such changes. First time RUclips showed me your videos from 4 years ago, I had no clue either. At least I recognized your voice! :P

Going to Gen Con for the first time and I have tix to your comedy show, Grant. Super excited board game nerd over here!

Favorite game I played at Dice Tower East.

It’s space Catan

Looks like fun. I enjoy your reviews Grant 👍🏼

You can tell them by the kooky glasses frames they wear.

i can’t find your link tree for the list

There’s just never any of these where I live.

They probably meant to ask, "how do I make my current friends board game friends?"

I had no idea these existed!

What’s a great 2 player specific game?

What convention is this?

16 hours ago I played Betrayal at House on the Hill with my daughter and her fiancee, who had never played before. They had no problem at all learning the game, and the fiancee even played the traitor just fine.

NFL is just as boring your argument just collapsed on itself

Where do I see that convention link? Thanks. Have a great day. Love your channel. 😊

It's also fair to say that not everyone has a FLGS near them.

Happy Birthday America! You Rock Grant!

I hope this is a joke. Not something to brag about Grant.☹️

You must have not ever lost someone to fire. (hug) Pyromania isn't funny... to be honest.

I had an epic hours long game of risk going once …. Calvary was holding the fronts in the european arena .. cannons fortifying australia … about to march up from south america and reclaim the north… then out of no where.. from lands beyond entered a Kittycatigus Giganticus. Soldiers were flung miles, some never accounted for. Africa was smothered in a dark cloud of fur blocking out the sun and crushing all. Never could bring myself to play again after that.

Point one: Grant declares to the world that people need to keep their dogs away from him. Point two: Grant will take the card game Hanabi too far when played.

Seriously? Or is this a joke?!

Landmarks available??

Great game, thanks Grant!

Totally! Seeing Settlers of Catan and New games I didn't recognize at Target reminded me that board games existed after the pandemic and got me back into my local game store!

Can't both games be boring?

Soccer fans below trying to hype the game up because its popular 😂😂😂 now its a popularity contest. Smh i prefer boxing or mma or hell hockey every now and then

I await the Grant visits boardgame convention game, complete with stair as nemesis that hunt players down.

More deck building than dice rolling has me interested

nah, fuck target. no reason to promote for them, they pay enough for that. youre just simping for a company that will make you money, and are annoyed at being called out for it.

Target carrying board games allows more people to make a full time living in the industry as well. If Target wasn't placing orders of 50,000 or more units, there'd be even less game designers making a living in board games.

I agree, wholeheartedly!

Amen! Same for online browsing. I started looking on Amazon because my therapist recommended I try board games, she suggested Catan. That didn't work cause we're only 2 here. Then I saw a few popular ones like Codenames and Carcassonne to which I gave a try to. I was hooked which lead me to browse more, see Everdell and there was no coming back LOL Amazon Canada being super expensive for board games my thirst led me to board game stores online (I'm homebound and don't have a rural FLGS anyway) Barely ever bought from Amazon since and I've spent thousands on about 200 games plus expansions since June 2021 (wow, 3 year anniversary! Yay!)

Finallyyyyyyy a good basketball game

Also many of the FLGS don’t have the games that Target sales. B&N does and usually has enough copies. Most FLGS especially in Sac only order a few copies so as to not keep games on shelves, they also charge retail prices and many times don’t have the promos so they actually make people to not go there for actual games. I try to visit the FLGS often even if it is for card sleeves and even if it feels awkward with some employees. All my favorite FLGS are in So Cal, but I support for the love of the Hobby.

Legit how I got into my collection. A friend brought something to one of our hangouts. We played. I liked it so much, i sought a copy, which happened to be available at my local Target. Then, the dam broke and here I am with shelves and shelves of games me, my family, my friends, and my gaming group all love. We actively seek out FLGS now in every town we visit, just to support the small, local businesses.

So what you're saying is "Target can be a gateway store for new board gamers" :)

Well said, great video

So...... target is a gateway drug?

Great! Now I want steak. Da Da Da.....

Great point Grant! Also, isn’t that what we want? To bring board gaming into the mainstream? Not just a niche hobby? What could be more mainstream than having strategy games at Target and Walmart?

I backed the Castles of Burgundy Special Edition, and had never played it before. I finally sat down to a game last weekend and discovered that I find it pretty boring. It does not scratch the Euro itch for me. I'll have to play it and Catan in a weekend to see if they are similar enough to introduce it to my family. Castles of Burgundy may be the introduction to Euro games I needed for my family.

Great outlook Grant

This was literally me not too long ago. Started at the big box stores. Had no idea there were so many games out there. Now I go out of my way to visit and purchase games from local game shops when I travel.

Not to mention some people lack the local part. If there's no local FLGS than a big box store may be someone's only option in person.

Barnes and Noble also has an impressive collection of boardgames. I love my FLGS but I will always browse and B&N when I'm there too

What I don't like about buying from Target is that they might have a version of the game with less than stellar components. This is why I always check BGG before buying a game there.
