You guys quickly became my favorite channel this 2022. Amazing work and Happy New Year! 💜
Aw thank you!! All the best to you in 2023! Happy new year!
Great video you two! I'm playing catch up on your videos right now. It's been busy. 😁
Life comes first! Hope you enjoy
Best way to add a sponsored ad in a video. Stopping and playing a game you just announced on your list lmao. Actually made me laugh insetting that in the video.
Thanks Patricio! Fun fact: this idea was born out of us forgetting to put the ad in the video haha
Just went for a run and listened through this entire video! So much fun... and so much sass in the intro! 😉 I find it so neat the way your personalities come through in your favorite games, especially for Jamie! I've played many of the games you mentioned but I think only Endless Winter and Wayfarers would make it into my Top 10 2022 Games list... but then again I only played 19 games that were released in 2022 so maybe there'd be some surprises! Loved the video as always! Happy New Year to you both! 🥳
We sassy people Dave!
Thank you great video. Happy New Year
Found you guys in early 2022 and have genuinely enjoyed your videos this year. You two have a beautiful relationship on camera and I hope it is just as great off. Your passion shows through in every video. I hope next year continues to see nothing but growth for personal and professional goals…. Even though I’m still upset about the Bills beating the Lions and that one loss may cost us a playoff visit…. But I don’t hold grudges 😂. Either way, I hope 2023 is your best year yet and thanks for the enjoyable content in 2022!
Thanks so much!!! Very kind of you! Also, GO BILLS
Another great set of picks… thank you and happy new year! I love Endless Winter and I think I do need to check out Planet Unknown - it keeps popping up on people’s top tens.
Happy new year Jason! Yea we’ve also noticed a lot of chatter on Planet Unknown. IMO, worth the hype
Represent those Cap Cliffs Jeff, or Chef Caps (the way they look from the front ;o). Represent!
Seriously tho, great video and love seeing the surprise reactions when you hear what’s on the other persons’ list.
I’ll def be checking out Downtown Farmers Market and Applejacks. I didn’t know about the bees involvement with that either Jamie.
Happy New Year 🥳
Appreciate you friend!
Uh, it’s like impossible not to love y’all. Happy New Year to you both and happy gaming!
Thanks so much Robert! Happiest of new year!
Love the list! Makes me want to explore more games that came out last year :)
We definitely recommend it!
Fiiiiiinally got to try Creature Comforts... and we introduced it to my niece and her bf, who are also hardcore gamers, and they were similarly blown away. I think it might be a Top 10 game for me now, it is fuh-reaking fantaaaaaaastic. The way it uses dice reminded me heavily of Rajas, but the synergies you can create are even more inter-locking and finding Comforts that feed on each other is really satisfying if you can get them to really complement each other.
Akropolis, Splendor Duel, Village Rails, Town 66, and Maui. My wife and I are casual gamers and really enjoy smaller box games.
We just played Maui! It’s so good
Thanks for all the great content this year! I'm looking forward to more in 2023 😊 You two are awesome and always give off good vibes 😁 Almost all of the 2022 releases I have are still on my shelf of shame but I have enjoyed Long Shot: The dice game! I'm planning on playing Flamecraft today, and Wonderland's War and Splendor Duel very soon!
Thanks for always being here to watch our stuff Nat! Let us know what you think of those games!
@@FostertheMeeple I enjoyed Flamecraft, it's cute, light and pleasant yet there's enough going on to keep it interesting 😄
Another great video. I was surprised that Heat wasn’t higher, which shows how strong of a year for games it was! Happy New Year
Very strong year!
I like the graphics and the dark purple background. Looking sharp!
Thank you!! It’s a process getting the studio to the point we want it but it’s coming along!
Such a great list of games! Happy New Year 🥰 Hope to see you somewhere in the world this year for a game together xx
Gosh that would be lovely. We really hope we can make that happen! Hope you both are well!
Really enjoyed you guy's list! I've played Planet Unknown once and loved it! Can't wait for Alicia to try it. I'm really interested in Applejack.
My bold prediction is she loves it! Let us know
Happy New Year! Good video as usual😁 I've been procrastinating about setting up Discord, but I'll join your channel if/when I ever get there! Also...going to look for Applejack!🎉
We will be there waiting!!
Happy New Year!! Hope the start to the year goes really well Jeff and Jamie! I told myself I did not need wonderlands war... but I need it, great list to remind me of some gems that came out this year!
Thanks for always being here with us Jake!
Wonderland’s War is my favorite game of 2022! You won’t regret getting it!
Wow!! So cool to see WW as #1 on both your lists! It’s mine as well, and I’m sure it’s my husband’s (based on the number of times he requests to play it). We also backed the expansion. Such a great game!!
It really is!
I didn't come close to getting my hands on 80 releases from 2022... but I'm glad to see that many of the games I did manage to play were on your lists, so obviously I got at least some of the highlights! I'm still looking forward to trying Heat and Vagrantsong.
Both great games!! Hope you enjoy them Alexa!
Jeff gushed about everything and everything just missed Jamie's list. 😂 Jamie I'm glad you repped Endless Winter since I'm considering culling Lost Ruins of Arnak. 😳
I think she did it on purpose!
"it's called fashion, sweetie look it up"
-Jeff
My 2023 motto!
So many times I've gone, "Cool hat. Wonder what team it is?". So why not have it on so we can see it, then flip it during the intro. This way it's like "rolling up your sleeves". Happy New Year from Texas!
Haha I start every video by turning my hat backwards? That’s kinda like a call sign. Don’t hate the idea
Great lists guys! Happy New Year!
Favorite games of 2022
1. The Guild of Merchant Explorers
2. First Rat
3. Long Shot the Dice Game
4. Creature Comforts
5. Vagrantsong
I’m VERY curious about first rat. Really want to try that one. Happy new year Kyle! - Jeff
It's a great game I've only played it at two but its super fun. If you and Jamie want to try it out, you are more than welcome to borrow it, I'm just outside of Lunenburg.
Great Lists! I have Wayfarers but haven’t had a chance to play it yet. Really looking forward to it.
Other games that stood out are: Dead Reckoning, Creature Comforts, Wonderland’s War, Endless Winter, and Resurgence.
I’m sure there’s more, but I either haven’t gotten a chance to play or I’m forgetting. I have two young daughters so I have very limited time. My eldest is six so she plays some games with us, but isn’t fully into the hobby yet. She likes Calico, Creature Comforts, Project L, and liked Isle of Cats: Explore and Draw. As she gets older (provided she’s interested) I would like to introduce her some other games in my collection.
The future gamers!! Love it!
Wonderland's War was one of my first Kickstarters and we love it! Have only played it at three, though. How do you find it at two players? Just as fun? I just picked up Guild of the Merchant Explorers and have played it 6-7 times in the past week (two times at four players and the other times solo). Really enjoying it. (P.S. Where can I find Planet Unknown? 😫)
Jeff, keep that hat perched high and tight and Happy New Year to the both of you! Looking forward to more videos in 2023!
I think 3p for WW is perfect. 2 players you lose the bidding element and I find 4 takes a bit too long. I am not sure where to find planet unknown. I grabbed it at PAX from a store selling Essen releases
I love it at all player counts. My husband and I play 2 player pretty often, and I do miss the bidding aspect, but there are gameplay changes that make 2 player games awesome in a different way. You have to win the site twice to get the castle points, and you only play 4/5 sites. You also get to take 5 cards each tea party instead of 4, so you end up with extremely strong bags. I think 3 player is the best, but 2 player is next best. I will still play and enjoy it at 4/5 players, but it’s definitely a long game!
@@daniellebackus819 Thanks for the info, Danielle! Will definitely have to try it at two players
From your lists I've only played Verdant, Creature Comforts, Flamecraft, and Paint the Roses (on BGA), but enjoy them all! Other 2022 games I've loved include Three Sisters, Birdwatcher, Gift of Tulips, Keystone: North America, Grove (2021 but I couldn't find it available until recently), and Long Shot: The Dice Game. FYFE, Momiji, and Dungeons, Dice, & Danger were also good and would fall just off my list.
I'm looking forward to buying Applejack, Marvel Dice Throne, and Wayfarers and this video added Planet Unknown and Ahoy to my list. I almost bought Downtown Farmer's Market awhile ago but passed and now that I've been playing Lost Seas on BGA I'm not sure which one I'll end up buying. They seem to have similar scoring mechanisms so I'd love to hear your thoughts on the two if you get around to trying Lost Seas.
Awesome!! Thanks so much for sharing! We will see what we can do on lost seas
Ended 2022 by losing 6 games of Silver Bullet back to back and started 2023 by starting my first Gloomhaven JOTL scenario. Both games are in our house because of your videos.
Hahaha I hope for better 2023 silver bullet luck for you friend!
My wife's fave series is Silver, mixing the cards just makes the the game never get old, get all of them
I'm sure there's a joke relating to Loose Caboose and bidets, but I probably have to go to Patreon for that spicy content.
DO IT JON
We want the full Jamie list!!!
Jamie should try apex theropod, its really good with people and solo, and well everything about dinosaurs is there
Grateful and annoyed that I added many of these to my radar list: Heat, Planet Unknown, Downtown Farmers, Applejack, Wonderlands War
P.S. didn’t know I could respect Jamie more from her litany of references but “don’t worry bout it sweetheart” that’s that SPLEH! is like my friends groups favorite vine reference of all time lol
You’re welcome from us to your wallet Reggie!
Board Game Oracle is my favorite site to look at to find games and what price points its being offered at including each stores shipping costs. They work for USA, Canada, New Zealand and Australia right now, and it looks like theres 4 or 5 shops in Canada that have Downtown Farmers Market available.
We ended up finding a copy! But thanks so much for this info Danica!
Love your list
Thank you!
I wish I had backed Planet Unknown. It looks like a lot of fun!
It really is. It shocked us both just how much we’ve fallen for it!
Marvel Dice Throne was my #1 game of 2022 because Dice Throne. Also, Marvel. I'll forgive Jamie for not having it on her list (I'm sure she'll be relieved) since she did include Unmatched T-Rex vs. Dr. Sattler. I loved a lot of the games on both of your lists, but some other titles that would make my Top 10 would be 3000 Scoundrels, Long Shot: The Dice Game, Green Team Wins, and especially Ready Set Bet.
All great games for sure! Agreed!
Oh!
What I would love to see the Unmatched or Marvel Dice Throne games do is add content to renew the most Epic of battles in geekdom: Marvel vs DC
Oh boy that would be good!
So glad y’all enjoyed WW so much! 😤🙌🏼😤
It’s definitely incredible work James! Thanks for putting out awesome stuff for all of us to enjoy!
Yes! Five Guys is the best. They are born from my area! Another reason to come out to northern Virginia/Washington D.C.
Ohhh that’s a fun fact!
Heat Rules! I just played it again last night.
Have you guys played Resurgence? Same designer as Endless Winter. It's a goodie.
We haven’t! Will check it out!
Wonderlands war also my #1, amazing game
So good!
I am genuinely proud that I saw the BrothersMurph video and Tim Chuon videos before this one lol
The only plausible answer to follow all this slander is a rap battle. Make it happen.
rap battle it is
Did you guys do the winner for the Radlands giveaway yet? Love the channel!
Not yet!! It’s coming on Thursdays vid!
Miniatures Market has one copy of Downtown Farmers Market in stock. I believe they also ship to Canada.
We found a copy!! Thank you!
We've loved the Garphill games, but Wayfarers immediately moved to the top of my list of the series. It's so good. Can't wait for the other two games in the trilogy.
Played Wayfarers of the South Tigris, Mosaic, and Endless Winter over the weekend, and would rank our enjoyment in that order. Endless Winter was a bit of a disappointment when compared with the other two. I think we'd rather play Lost Ruins of Arnak than Endless Winter, at this point. And we didn't even add the three expansions. I think there is just too much going on.
I think I’d have to agree with you! Wayfarers for sure the best IMO, and endless winter didn’t hit for me as much as it did for Jamie. I do think rivers and rafts expansion helped it for me, but yes - it has a LOT going on.
So you guys enjoy Wonderlands War works at 2? We play 2 players 90% of the time but were hesitant based on 2 player impressions we've read. PS- Love this channel :)
We do enjoy it! I think Jamie prefers it at 4 and I prefer it at 3. 2 player you lose the bidding on combat which definitely takes some lustre away, but we’ve enjoyed it for sure at 2p
I mostly play games with my husband, and we love it at 2 players! It has some great rule changes for 2 players that make it work extremely well. It has a lengthy setup time, but since it also has a long play time, it always feels worth it!
QQ: how good is the 2 player mode of WW? i know like 4 is a really good player count but most of the time its just me and my bf and i really want to get him into it :D
We enjoyed it! You aren’t going to get the full game experience as some of the best aspects are the bidding (which doesn’t exist at 2). But we for sure had a good time playing it at 2
John Company: second edition is my game of 2022 !
Haven’t played that one yet but definitely want to try it!
5 guys?! 🤦♀️ it’s all about In n Out my dudes! Lol. But Im a Cali girl AND I don’t eat meat so I’m probably biased. I will say 5 guys has really good fries. Also just played loose Caboose with our kids and it WAS really fun!
Had in n out. Five guys >. Sorry not sorry 😆. Loose Caboose is so good!
Still trying to get full set for games from prior years so have not bought that many boardgames from this year. The ones I did buy, Carnegie is my favorite so far. I bought it originally for its gimmicky player board but I really enjoyed its gameplay. I hope they release an expansion that includes the extra department tiles and the rules to start out in asymmetrical companies.
The other game from 2022 that I've really enjoyed is Marvel Dice Throne. However, I don't care for the original sets and having played the Marvel version, it has not gotten me interested in trying the originals.
The only other game from 2022 I have played was Heat but only at 2 player. I think I would enjoy it more with at least 4.
Have but not tried are Endless Winter with the 3 major expansions and Wayfarers of the South Tigris.
I need to give Carnegie a try!
Should have a link to the Tim Chuon video in the description.
Here ya go! ruclips.net/video/c_Yct9Iidw0/видео.html
Jeff, I don't understand the hat style - never understood the not bending the hat bill - but keep it the way that it is. The Brothers Murph don't know what they are talking about, when you pushed the hat down it just wasn't right. Own it bro!
Appreciate you Liam! Thank you!
I wish Wonderland’s War was a hit for us. We *should* have loved everything about it (the production, the art, the bag building, the push your luck, hey i still dream about touching those wonderful premium chips) but something about the game just felt overdone to us (not elegant or streamlined or intuitive) and the juice wasn’t worth the squeeze. Sold it in a timely fashion. Maybe didn’t give it a proper chance or we weren’t the right people to play a bloated game like that. On the other hand though, we love the big box Ark Nova and the blast that Cubitos is. Go figure. I think the review by Ready Steady Play really hits the nail on the head of our one-play experience. He was talking about us! But he loved the game like you do, I believe.
Hey that’s fair! Not every game is gonna click with everyone. That’s the best part of the hobby really, there’s something for everyone!
I’m pretty sure Montana’s did the burger patty between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches burger. I tried it once. It seemed unnecessary to try again.
That’s where I had it!!
I mean there’s a whole tiktok trend talking about wearing your hat high on your head 😅
There is? I’m not on tick tock so I’ll have to get Jamie to show me
Late to this video... My partner feels the "Root pain. He is going to Rootcon in august
Awesome!! Hope he enjoys!
Oh sure, others mention the high hat and we get grief. Brothers Murph mention it and it gets attention. :P
Oh they got grief
It's shocking you don't have more subs. Enough said.
Haha I am sure they will come in time, but thank you!!!
California In-N-Out burger - must have.
We had it! Five guys > In n Out. Tell the brothers murph too.
@@FostertheMeeple i live across the street from a Five Guys, an In n Out, The Habit and Shakeshack (yes, i have gained weight since i moved here) and Five Guys is hands down the best IMO👍
100% Wonderland’s War 🥇
Jeff play as a catcher so that is the way to wear the hat. By the way I have Downtown farmer market I think Titan Games have it. A store here in Puerto Rico
Hahaha yea! I’m just permanently in Baseball catcher cosplay
@@FostertheMeeple Happy new year!!! Love your videos. Always very funny specially when both of you sing and edit it with the chickmunks voice.
Wow, 5 guys is so terrible in the states. Crazy to hear people love it lol. I’ll try the Canadian one when I go.
Ohhh this is interesting information
Downtown farmers market 18$ on Amazon in stock
We found a copy! But thank you!
have y'all played Formula D? I'm wondering how Heat compares
We haven’t! Unfortunately
Is Wonderlands War a great 2 player game? I'd like to play it with the wife!
I would say it’s ok at 2p. It loses some of its lustre at that player count though (you lose the bidding option). But we definitely enjoyed it at 2. I would say though it is optimized for 3 players!
Would you ever do a Funkoverse video?
We plan to! We are trying to get some more of the sets lined up but you should see something this year!
Jamie let me down… I think Im now team Jeff.. what no Marvel Dice Throne.. I’m having to rethink my life right now heading into the new year.
We are always recruiting Johnny!
I need wonderlands war I've been challenged to not buy any games fir six months , and it's only been two weeks and I'm weak !!!
I believe in you Ken! You can make it!
everyone knows bees get honey from apples
🤣
I want to play Root man, but I keep reading it sucks with just 2 players.
Yea I’ll be honest. It isn’t great at 2p, at least the base game. I will say that the new marauders expansion added hirelings which helps the game to work at 2p. Worth looking in to!
Does Applejack seem similar to Cascadia?
Honestly not really. I would say it leans more towards patchwork than cascadia
Have you guys ever played Robin of Lockley by Uwe? HIDDEN GEM!!! I think it didn’t do as well as it should have as people were not expecting this type of game from Uwe. If you ever have the chance to play it, I really recommend!!
We haven’t and now I’m frantically researching it
Love FIve Guys, but as a small town flatlander, nothing beats a greasy a#@ed rink burger.
I feel that. We also live in a small town. Five guys is a TREK for us
Feliz año nuevo
Bonne année!
No Weather machine?)
Haven’t played it!
Go Nuggets!
OK! First of all, I was admiring your hat game not slanderizing it. Second, I do not like it when you smoosh your had down all the way. It ain't right. Third, how dare you call into question our burger habits. Burgers are America's food (probably, maybe?) anyway I'm off to find the tiniest snapback I can find to see if I can capture some of your hat game magic.
if you go and buy a Shriners hat I’m flying to California to fight you
everyone always picking on jeffs hat
Buncha dingus’ really!
I might be in the minority but i dont really like Marvel Dice throne. Its just to luck base for a combat game. You cant really plan what you want to do because of the random nature of combat. I prefer infinitely more Unmatched when it comes to combat games for the sense that you can outwit your opponent if need be.
I mean that’s for sure personal preference! I don’t mind the randomness, means you don’t need to be a “pro” to have fun and play a game. It’s super friendly to new games for that reason, and it’s just such an enjoyable experience!
Why is Susan so lazy?
A lack of drive in life.
The hat makes you look unintelligent. Sorry
And this might be the most unintelligent comment I’ve read. Sorry.
Wtf lol
You’re right, wonderlands war is #1 hands down! My number 2 would also be marvel dt, followed by iss vanguard! Great video guys, can’t wait to see what’s coming in 2023.
