      Wow, deep cut! I’ve never actually played it, but I’ve heard it mentioned over the years. That’s a game I’d like to own, too bad it’s out of circulation. Thanks!

      Great call. Super fun holiday game. A satisfying physical tabletop that takes up much less real estate than a Foosball table. Thanks!

    Damn, you're not only into cards but venturing to board games to. Keep up the great work there! My family is not so well versed in board games but my partner and I try to really push to play some games. This year we plan to play Cascadia, Azul was already a great hit as well.

      Thank you! I was raised on a healthy mix of cards and board games. My dad saved piles of them from the 1950/60s giving a very unusual gaming education. I have yet to play Cascadia but I do like Azul. It’s always tricky to get the deeper non causal games in front of new players. Catan is a good compromise. Dominion is also a very deep game that can be taught fairly quickly. Let me know how it works out and thanks for watching!

    Enchanted Forest is a great game. The original german version Sagaland from the eighties has much nicer artwork.

      I just looked it up, you’re right, fantastic artwork!

    Thanks for the info about Enchanted Forest. I am always looking for games to recommend to people in a variety of settings.

      You are very welcome! I do believe Enchanted Forest is uniquely situated as a game that can work for almost any age and gaming level. I hope you enjoy it too!

    Interesting number 1 choice. I wanted to disagree at first, but considering your reasoning and potential players, you might have found a good option. I enjoyed playing it with my kids when they were young. Nowadays I would recommend a roll and write like Encore!
    With bigger groups we also enjoy Werewolf. It is caos and fun, but not easy to really master.

    • @Play-In-Games
      @Play-In-Games  Год назад

      Interesting I’ve never played Encore, I’ll have to try. What about it makes it stand out?

    • @kuester2000
      @kuester2000 Год назад

      @Play-In-Games It is a modern version of Yahtzee which is played by all ages as well You roll dice and try to use them in the best possible way on a sheet. But you do not have that much dead times, since you can use some of your opponent's dice, too.

    People don't like the memory mechanism. You have a good memory or you don't. People with good memories win.

      Absolutely great for leveling the playing field with kids. As a parent with horrible memory, it's a huge challenge for me and less so for kids. It's great for them to win a game so its at least good in that scenario.

      If you want to advertise on my channel you should probably pay me. I work hard on these videos. Promoting your business on the back of my hard work is a sort of petty theft. Thanks for the nice comment though.

    Happy to see those wounds of honour on your games, that means you've been giving them quite a lot of love!

      Thanks! If a game is too precious to play, it’s not a game, it’s an unopened book on a shelf! Thanks for watching!
