I previously thought that you guys were living the dream because you get to play so many games etc, but this specific video made me realise that you have won the lottery because you get to spend so much time with your friends, joking around, and drawing a wage for it. Love the vibes you guys put out.
@@ShuffleUpandDeal32 It's not "for" creators to fund their projects by crowdsourcing money from their fans/supporters? Hard disagree, that's exactly what Kickstarter is for.
I can confirm Cyclades is coming to kickstarter this year. I heard Bruno Cathala mentioning this multiple times in French internet media. The game will have a few tweaks to make for a shorter more dynamic game.
Some of my other most anticipated: - The Isofarian Guard - Vampire the Masquerade: Chapters - Tamashi: Chronicle of Ascend - Agemonia - Tidal Blades 2 - Dawn of Madness - Tesseract - Aolis - Wild Assent: Lavon Rising - Tainted Grail: Kings of Ruin
Is there a People's Choice for most anticipated? Really would love to see what the masses are looking forward to because not a lot of cross over with me on these lists...although I am more excited to see expansions for games that I already really love instead of completely new games. Would like to see a top 10 anticipated expansions list too.
No people's choice vote for the list because the Top 100 Games of All Time voting took priority. Getting all that prepared because it goes live Jan 23. Plenty of prep work to get done!
@@DTChrisYi top 100 games of all time from last year was SO helpful for me to catch up on the state of the hobby after being mostly away from it for about 10 years. I so appreciate when you talk about games that aren’t new so I can find out about all the greats that I have missed.
Mine is: 1. Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies 2. Sagrada Artisans 3. Honey Buzz: Fall Flavors (and the base game for me) (I know this is an expansion but I haven't played the base game) 4. Tales of the Arthurian Knights 5. Earth 6. 7th Citadel 7. Arydia: The Path We Dare Tread 8. Legacy of Yu 9. Divinus 10. Mr. President: The American Presidency, 2001-2020
Also excited for Dark Quarter, Septima, Forsaken, Fox Experiment, Seas of Havoc, Unconscious Mind, Scarface 1920, Legacy of Yu, Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies. Looks like it's going to be a good year!
My list includes Marvel:Zombies, Mr.President, Redwood, Skyrise, Dark Quarter, Thunder Road Vandetta, Forsaken, Casting Shadows, Unconscious Mind, Vindication, and critically acclaimed Last Light. My carryover list from stuff that should have come out last year includes Atlantis Rising:Monstrosities and Robinson Crusoe: collectors edition.
My #1 is Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies. Also very excited for Unconscious Minds, Fit to Print, Trailblazers, Kinfire Chronicles (not sure that’s 2023, but I think it is?), Ra, and Castles of Burgundy.
Harrow County looks great, very excited for it. Other classic indie comics I’d like to see with board game versions- Stumptown by Greg Rucka, Fables by Bill Willingham, Saga or Paper Girls by Brian K Vaughan.
I'm surprised Mike didn't mention Nova Roma by Stan Kordonskiy. I'm not 100% sure it's coming out this year but it is listed as 2023 on BGG. I played a prototype and it's really good!
The cube tower in Harrow County kept eating my cubes, but the game was really cool. Only played the first chapter, but really cool how more things get introduced to the game and it evolves into a 3 player game.
My top 3 for 2024 (Cult of the distant future): 1) Unconscious Mind (doubtful will be delivered to backers in 2023) 2) Andromeda's Edge 3) Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era
I own Steam Up and LOVE IT. Happy I have the upgraded components which are nowhere near necessary but do make it look great. My game night group has requested it several times.
45:30 That reaction made me check out why Zee was so shocked. That lead me to BGG and being shocked too but designers (people) can do a varying amount of work so we shouldn’t be too surprised. I looked through their game portfolio and saw Perfumery and that was a stunning looking cover imo, shades of Petrichor but that box lead me to find videos how it plays and this is the point, a RUclipsr Cardboard East and I wanted to shout them out for their focus on Asian board games.
Nobody knew about it 2 weeks ago.Even if anyone had early info, they wouldn't break embargo and put it on a huge public list. But no, it wasn't announced yet
@@DTChrisYi Oh, when I heard about it I thought I just hadn't been paying attention. I'm usually the last to know. I kind of wish it had passed by me until the summer because it's all I'm thinking about now.
Imagine if the game had Dutrait art, bet it would have sold more. I wonder what his commission is on games because sales with his art must have a sizable gap compared to others.
I was looking at Atlas Lost but in the end couldn't see any reason to get it when I already have Anachrony. Don't get me wrong, it looks great...but I can't really justify it when I have Anachorny on the shelf and Voidfall coming in...
I'm looking forward to Steam Up, Scarface 1920, Distilled, Tidal Blades 2, Sleeping Gods 2, ISS Vanguard and Castles of Burgundy Special Edition, and new to me games Foundations of Rome, Dead Reckoning, Wonderlands War, RA and Oathsworn. And, if Hell freezes over, maybe Nova Aetas: Renaissance and Black Rose Wars: Rebirth from LMS (haha, will believe them when I see them).
I have backed Mythwind a while back. It’s supposed to come out this year. I am really curious to see what’s it about. The legacy-like concept of an ever going game coughs my attention. But I have no idea if it’s going to be good or not.
how does everyone find these fun kickstarter games? Just looking constantly? by the time i hear about them, they're typically closed so i can't back them
43:06 Interesting prediction from Zee. If the game comes in february, it has an easy chance for being in the top100 in december, but Essen will have a hard time on it. If it does not arrive before may, it has zero chance for even reaching top50, not top10.
Guess 2023 is not a year for me, which is great because I need to slow down on accumulating new games. The only one here I'm looking forward to trying is Empire's End.
Well I am still looking forward to Frosthaven but if ends up like Etherfields I might not get it until 2024 (something that happens when you go all in on Kickstarters). But Forsaken and Sleeping Gods Distant Skies I have also back (also going all in on them). Once again keeping us fellow gamers updated on what is coming out.
I mean, if you want X-Wing, nothing beats X-Wing in that space IMO. Such a solid game. Although I do prefer the 2.0 rule set over the 2.5. The X-Wing scene has died around me ever since 2.5 hit. But that also makes sense, it's not FFG making the game anymore. They wanted something different for X-Wing future then where it was heading unfortunately.
spoiler alert : after us...no interaction, gameplay saw on starship captin, hybris or Wayfarers of the South Tigris, a deckbuilding games which you can't choose the card but you have to take one on a pile of cards ( what ?? ) and the theme is not present at all
Everyone putting Unconscious Mind on their list, when it is planned for December and from my experience everything is delayed, so will probably be delivered in 2024.

Sure drawing a wage off people backing their Kickstarter donation projects

It's the jokes that these three guys make that keep me coming back. You guys are so much fun to listen to

Fantastic news! Bad for the wallet though...
Still probably not a 2023 game though, probably 2024 with normal Kickstarter delivery timing.
@@josephread8414 Good point! Those waiting times be crazy nowadays...
when will it be on kickstarter?
will it have options for all previous expansions? big box?
My friend designed Forsaken! I got to play a bunch and it’s genuinely a great experience. So great to see that game on the list.
Some of my other most anticipated:
- The Isofarian Guard
- Vampire the Masquerade: Chapters
- Tamashi: Chronicle of Ascend
- Agemonia
- Tidal Blades 2
- Dawn of Madness
- Tesseract
- Aolis
- Wild Assent: Lavon Rising

This could make a good voting show!
Agree, this should be the next vote live show! Dice Tower, make this happen!
There is already 18 pages (100 games each) of games and expansions that are listed as coming out this year! That would be a very long voting show! 😊

12:45-13:18 is a perfect example of Zee's amazing improv skills :D

2. Sagrada Artisans
3. Honey Buzz: Fall Flavors (and the base game for me) (I know this is an expansion but I haven't played the base game)
4. Tales of the Arthurian Knights
5. Earth

7. Arydia: The Path We Dare Tread
8. Legacy of Yu
9. Divinus
10. Mr. President: The American Presidency, 2001-2020
Thanks for the kickstarter reminder! 😁 just backed it!
Thank you for all the content you bring out every week🥰
Also excited for Dark Quarter, Septima, Forsaken, Fox Experiment, Seas of Havoc, Unconscious Mind, Scarface 1920, Legacy of Yu, Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies. Looks like it's going to be a good year!
Yayyy!! Thanks for including Steam Up on the 2023 anticipation list.
I think Hickory Dickory from Plaid Hat looks great for this year!
Love the positive feedback with the culls. Bummed about Voices in my Head.
My list includes Marvel:Zombies, Mr.President, Redwood, Skyrise, Dark Quarter, Thunder Road Vandetta, Forsaken, Casting Shadows, Unconscious Mind, Vindication, and critically acclaimed Last Light.
My carryover list from stuff that should have come out last year includes Atlantis Rising:Monstrosities and Robinson Crusoe: collectors edition.
I think 23:10-23:30 might be an early candidate for the 2023 end of year best moments compilation
Happy to see Atlas Lost made Mike’s list - I had a feeling it would be there somewhere. I am REALLY excited about that game!
My #1 is Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies. Also very excited for Unconscious Minds, Fit to Print, Trailblazers, Kinfire Chronicles (not sure that’s 2023, but I think it is?), Ra, and Castles of Burgundy.
Harrow County looks great, very excited for it. Other classic indie comics I’d like to see with board game versions- Stumptown by Greg Rucka, Fables by Bill Willingham, Saga or Paper Girls by Brian K Vaughan.
Number one for me by a mile is Voidfall by Mindclash games.
Fun fact, since this video came out... Anakema has not updated their campaign for Arkeis.
Septima is #1 for me. I'm still waiting for Come Together to come to Canadian retailers as well
I’m looking forward to Steam Up as well. One other game I look forward to is Shake That City: strange that I heard no mention of it.
Surprised nobody thought of Beast. I've seen a lot of stuff about it being good.
I'm surprised Mike didn't mention Nova Roma by Stan Kordonskiy. I'm not 100% sure it's coming out this year but it is listed as 2023 on BGG. I played a prototype and it's really good!
Can anyone explain what Mike means by "templates" when talking about Redwood?
I feel that the camera in this studio is not as sharp as the other studio. I use 1080p for both and this one is "fuzzy".
The cube tower in Harrow County kept eating my cubes, but the game was really cool. Only played the first chapter, but really cool how more things get introduced to the game and it evolves into a 3 player game.
It’s insane how few of these ended up on their Top 10 of the year list.
Yeah, I'm going to make a video on this subject in the coming weeks.
Thanks for backing Hoagies Heroes..your sandwich will be shipped Q3 2023
I'd love to see a video of y'all reviewing last year's most anticipated list.
That's actually recorded and happening over the next week or so.
My top 3 for 2024 (Cult of the distant future):
1) Unconscious Mind (doubtful will be delivered to backers in 2023)
2) Andromeda's Edge
3) Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era

Did you guys know about Expeditions ("Scythe 2") when you made this video? I'm surprised none of you had it. I think that's my #1.

Suprised Agemonia wasn’t on the list. Looks amazing
@Mike Did you see the new board design for Bardwood in December? Did someone order ugly with a side order of bland?
41:51 Definitely the final cover, looked through KS updates and saw the creator did an unboxing and it was the same cover.
Imagine if the game had Dutrait art, bet it would have sold more. I wonder what his commission is on games because sales with his art must have a sizable gap compared to others.
What game are they talking about being really late? R Case, Arcace, something that sounds like that. @ 17:45 then later as well

Wonderland’s War is soooo good. I’m excited for you!
@@daniellebackus819 I'm so looking forward to it! To all of them really!
Biggest one on my list is Isofarian Guard. But that's 3 years of waiting talking and I like stories.
Top 5: Marvel Zombies, Fit to Print, Floe, Robinson Caruso, Age of Comics
10. Trailblazer: The John Muir Trail
9. Legacy of Yu
8. NEXUS
7. Silver Coin
6. Voidfall
5. Septima
4. Lords of Ragnarok
3. Isofarian Guard
2. Forsaken
1. Freedom Five
I have backed Mythwind a while back. It’s supposed to come out this year.
I am really curious to see what’s it about.
The legacy-like concept of an ever going game coughs my attention. But I have no idea if it’s going to be good or not.
SW Destiny was from 2016 - 2020, was promotional for the Force Awakens
Do a Top 10 Artists in Board Gaming video!
My most anticipated game for 2023 is Last Light from Grey Fox Games.
7:16 mike, you missed a golden opportunity to make a pun -:
“Stan kordovskiy, who im really starting to STAN”
Please dont miss it next time 😅
Definitely deep impact is better! It's got much more heart. So many tears!
Divinus!!! Yes Zee, I'm with you on that one.

Wondering if Zee has given up on Subterra 2... or is there still hope?
No Skyrim from CTG?
Where is Heroes of Might and Magic ???
No War for Arrakis, Tainted Grail: Kings of Ruin, or Cthulhu Death May Die sequel?
I regret not backing a lot of these games when I had the chance.
I really feel like this year is going to be a good game year.
Guess 2023 is not a year for me, which is great because I need to slow down on accumulating new games. The only one here I'm looking forward to trying is Empire's End.
1:10:30 Yes! Exactly what I was going to type (watch to the end)! BGG forums say March 2023 Capstone will have it. 😏 (Rubs hands together)
Has anyone noticed that the Incognito tab on the iPhone internet looks like Tom Vasel? That’s what I think whenever I see the icon lol
When he has the glasses on
Did anyone from either show mention Stranger Things from CMON?? It looks like it's gonna be a fairly light coop, but the IP makes it my #1 by far!
Forsaken! 😁👍💜
Well I am still looking forward to Frosthaven but if ends up like Etherfields I might not get it until 2024 (something that happens when you go all in on Kickstarters). But Forsaken and Sleeping Gods Distant Skies I have also back (also going all in on them). Once again keeping us fellow gamers updated on what is coming out.
I’m also looking forward to Disney lorcana. I bought a ticket to gencon just for this.
Harrow County looks great. Too bad a game like this will never make it to the German market.
No card games?
I would've backed Age of Comics... if I hadn't lost my job. I still got my eye on you, though.
1:00:10 The L with a line through it is pronounced like a W.
I’m hoping Escape From New York and Rat Queens are going to be good!!
Tiny Epic Vikings!!!
I mean, if you want X-Wing, nothing beats X-Wing in that space IMO. Such a solid game. Although I do prefer the 2.0 rule set over the 2.5. The X-Wing scene has died around me ever since 2.5 hit. But that also makes sense, it's not FFG making the game anymore. They wanted something different for X-Wing future then where it was heading unfortunately.
Dark Quarter!! 🎉❤
I'm interested in Escape from Arkham Asylum, and I'd say Bloodstone, but I suspect that won't be here this year.
I’m surprised no one mentioned Darwin’s Journey
I'm surprised Zee didn't mention The Grand Carnival reprint and expansion
Looking forward to snap ships.
Zee messed up his list by not including Dark Quarter. Not for the 7way crossover but because it is ZEEvil!
Hopefully Zee gets called out for seeing Titanic when talking Armageddon!
1:09:16 Best comment ever!
I expected Mike is anticipating Scythe Expeditions....
spoiler alert : after us...no interaction, gameplay saw on starship captin, hybris or Wayfarers of the South Tigris, a deckbuilding games which you can't choose the card but you have to take one on a pile of cards ( what ?? ) and the theme is not present at all
they forgetting Mind MGMT at the end when the are talking about comics.
It's pronounced Sèptima, it means seventh (but I don't know what it refers to)
No way 7th Continent is coming out this year. :)
Regretting not backing The Dark Quarter now...
Oh i would be all over the place for a Hellboy United.
Not a single mention of Arcs? This is an absolute outrage
Everyone putting Unconscious Mind on their list, when it is planned for December and from my experience everything is delayed, so will probably be delivered in 2024.
All Zee needs to know about Steam Up is.... chicken feet! That's all. Back that instead of your loaf of bread.
Mike is my gd spirit animal, I swear.
The ark nova expansion?
Qit babbaling; just give us the essence!
ICE was on Mike's anticipated list last year and it still hasn't delivered. I guess he forgot about it?
I mentioned at the beginning of the stream that three games on my list last year hadn’t yet delivered: ICE, Unconscious Mind, and Bardwood Grove.
@@michaeldilisio557 ah, missed that ;)
No chip theory games elder scrolls?
It won’t come out this year.
Its a list of Playable games ... not kickstarter projects
My choice: Legendary Encounters The Matrix
Zee, if you want to know how Steam Up plays, I have a how-to-play video on my channel. Fun, family/gateway game.
Point City!
