Welcome to When Harry Met Board Games! A channel committed to sharing its enthusiasm for modern tabletop games.
In this channel we offer a unique perspective, highlighting older board games (5-30 years) and avoiding the common trend of the industry which is to focus on newer titles.
Every day a new board gamer is "born" and needs orientation. Many channels do a good job covering the latest trends but neglect the oldies but goodies. Here, we want to share the love for board games that have proven themselves through the test of time and are overlooked in our hobby due to their age.
On this channel we feature top 10 lists, unboxings, reviews, playthroughs and assortment of other shows featuring my wife Lily and my son Nicholas from time to time.

Top 10 Variable Player Power Board Games
Why'd you stop doing board game reviews?
This is a great game. I have it on the table right now. Just love it
I enjoyed your video. I just got this game and learned a lot from this playthrough. Thank you.
sometimes i eat sandwich
Thank you, very clear rule explanation!
Savannah Islands
You can also buy extra votes in the Parliament phase.
Nice looking, and this game is on crowd discount sale at The Game Crafter! I just purchased it. Thanks
Love to see Agricola getting some deserved recognition compared to Caverna. Caverna is also great but so many wrongfully think it’s just a straight improvement to Agricola, but I really disagree.
I love all your videos. You are awesome.
totally agree on splendor. century golem or spice road significantly better but similar mechanics. disagree on through the ages, although ive only played the app but I can play a 3 person game against 2 computers in just under 30 minutes (although your argument is understandable since it was in top #5). underrated as far as BGG ranking, I would put puerto rico, lords of waterdeep, isle of cats, parks, maybe everdell. when it comes to overall popularity, thats a whole different ballgame as a lot of mass market games which are absolute garbage but immensely popular would be part of the list: monopoly, uno, candy land (was shocked and disappointed at seeing two adults play this at a board game store), risk, candy land. overall popularity of designer games, catan would be #1. Catan's placement in 500 range on bgg I think is about where it should be, but its still immensely popular
Seems like the idea for the game was okay-ish at least, but the execution was poor. (Pun not intended)
Bruges is awesome, give it a shot ;). Love the list and descriptions!
You are really good at this. I wish you'll do it much more with many other games... Thank you!
Great video, ty for this. I bought this in 2018 and this weened i am just getting it to my table, lol
Wasn't it that every moreale phase you increase morale by 1 because of Friday?
You're correct. Pg 26 says that but no mentioning that Friday had to be alive
great playthrough! Thanks! Im planning on doing a video of this oop game soon. i sent over a sub! Please consider sending one my way.
Clever channel name!
This was awesome :) Thanks buddy!
I love your top 5
Bro really said reflected! @ 7:49
You must try Bruges at some point. Awesome game.
Hexplore It, and specifically entry 4: The Domain of Mirza Noctis, has very quickly become one of my favorite adventure games. Leveling up, exploring the lands, exploring dungeons, huuuge variety of contextual random events, good stuff. Only problem is actually keeping track of the abundance of systems, late game it can feel like a lot
I'll try to use it with the TMNT set.
Totally agree with you. Agricola is definitely the superior game.
Disliked for lying thumbnail and who the f cares picked games. Your thumbnail promised Terraforming Mars and Gloomhaven. Lying sucks.
I recommend Legend of the five rings! sad to see its missing from the list.
Netrunner for the win! Best card game i have ever played hands down
8:35 Would it have been more interesting to place that tile at the very bottom left corner, matching red and green areas with the tile above it, so there would have been another market in the green area controlled by White?
I've never seen a "best of Knizia" list without Ra on it.
What did you record this on, a potato!
Gosh I got eldritch horror back in October I think, and I just now found out about Arkham horror second edition. Seriously every mechanic they changed for eldritch horror, looks to be a worse mechanic than what it was in 2nd edition. I'm so happy Im picking up second edition soon.
The card-based combat is dumb. Should be reserved for a boss battle. AND, after resolving the time-consuming combat, the victorious player gets ZERO treasure.
Every battle is a boss battle. You're unlikely to encounter more than three monsters pr. playthrough - sometimes none in multiplayer. I downloaded the game on Tabletop Simulator - it came with two sets of Combat Cards (and revised ed.'s Roshambo, if you prefer that, similar to the original). First the ones shown here (4 of each 1-3 value, 2x Magic 4s, 3x Melee 4s, and 4x Ranged 4s). Then 4 cards for every hero and monster, most of which were a family of special abilities (the Archer prevents Counterattacks, the Sorcerer cancels combat types, the Barbarian auto-adds to damage stack, the Golem doesn't add to combat stack, the Druid manipulates card draws, the Skeleton gets +2 to Power under specific conditions, etc.) by various mechanics, some had 3 weaker cards of one type, and a power card of another. And some cards were just Power 5 or Power 6 cards. All of them without counter-attack. And they had one more icon on them, for heroes, it was a number between 1 and 5 (all 0 for Kreutzbeck), and the monsters had a light number and dark number on them in hemispheres. One of the heroes Tatiana had a really lucky run, in spite of getting the Imp, she used her healing rune and had only 1 Wound, and she plowed through a spider web and immediately dropped her Rope and a bracelet, to dart over two Bridges in a row, but then in the last room before the exit, they decided that a Swinging Blade Trap is an Armor test for some reason. She had no Determination, so had to roll a 4 or less, or get herself bisected. But yeah, the Imp would've stolen her 1200 gold treasure anyway. The druid got herself walled-in right next to the Treasure Room, and the elf got stung by a scorpion, fell into a viper pit, and triggered a Poison Gas trap, so he died to my poison house rule, where I make a die green, then use it as timer; every time it goes below 1, hero loses a Lifepoint, rolls d6 for a 6 to end the poison. And with three sources of poison, the timer drops by 3 every turn / poison tick every 1.5 turns.
Thanks for sharing! There's always going to be a subjective factor in such lists.. Yet thinking "hey, I agree/disagree with that" is both fun and informative. So I agree with some and disagree with some (normal). I strongly disagree with T&E - it needs a bit of time, atmosphere and right people to fully blossom. I think it's a genius and atmospheric game. An abstract that simulates theme well!
Summoner Wars uses the LCG business model. Each deck is pre-made and unique to its faction. Even though it’s not Fantasy Flight, it’s an LCG through and through.
This was a good playthrough, thank you. Now, I know how to play better.
Loved your review my friend, like your wife I also was born in Cuba. This game actually takes me back in time. It is an awesome game and this is a wonderful review. Thank you so much for it 🎉
Good overview.
I enjoyed seeing you play and thereby demonstrating hour to play this game. Also your engery while you do. Greetings from Alaska
I’m looking to build a small collection of traditional/classic games, or sometimes they are called pub games. I’m thinking of games like chess, checkers backgammon, mancala, Chinese checkers etc. are you able to name a few more games that are similar to those?
Great play through.. some things You forgot to take a rune, in rotating room you should not draw a dungeon card, in combat you do not discard your hand but draw up to 5 or 6 for your hero. When you draw a portcullis you enter without rolling strength only exiting through one do you need to test strength. You do not discard determination tokens unless you use them.
In third edition, you do discard determination tokens whether you use them or not. p.23 "When the encounter is finally resolved (whether by suceeding at the test or giving up the attempt), the hero discards all of his determination tokens." There is a variant on p.25,"Focused Determination" , that lets you keep unused determination tokens.
Can you play 2nd with the map of 3rd edition
Extremely helpful! Thank you!
Thank you. I know you did this a while ago but it is really helpful for me to get started
7 wonders is the most over rated board game - The iconography and game play is quite complicated for beginners - Drafting for beginners when they can barely understand the more complicated game play and iconography is crazy. yet the game has no depth . Nor is there much strategy. so there is not enough depth and strategy for folks who like the heavier games.
Hello, I found your channel today. Great content! My thoughts: Through the Ages is underrated 😅 Blood Rage is pretty fun, but I agree about it suffering from imbalances. A bit overrated. Gloomhaven (whichever one) I totally agree: overrated games. Sagrada bores me to dead. Star Realms is a fun duel, a fast paced deck building, maybe a bit overrated. T&E is a great game. If it were in the top 10 I'd say it is overrated. Splendor bored me so much that I sold it almost immediately after buying it. Steam is one of the most underrated games of all time according to my playing group. A masterpiece! (We play only with the "advanced" rules.) Exit games are, generally speaking, very overrated. 7th Continent is the only one I haven0t played.
I have seen many comments online about Arkham Horror and Elder Signs being really good solo games so I wanted to try. The library did not have Arkham so I borrowed Elder Sign, I am just about to play it, thank you for the walk through it is very helpful.
'Notre Dame' is pronounced 'Notra Dam' just about everywhere but in the US.
I was aware of that
And there are games that you love that I don't. I don't get the whole "overrated". It's just taste.
I agree its just taste and its just an opinion. Just like whenever a person says something is overrated it is always an opinion
