I think your channel is the only one I watch just to see all the cool production stuff you add to it: music, sound effects, slowmo closeups, etc. I don't know if it's just you or a production team that makes your videos but you have some serious talent. I'll watch any board game channel for the info, but yours is a feast for the senses.
WILD! I missed out on the kickstarter for ICE, but plan to pick it up when it comes back around. It has such a unique presence. Thunder Road was my HenCon purchase, and I love, love, love the chaos factor in this game!
You have such great taste Tim. Played a bunch of Castles and Raw this year. But I'm most excited to play Thunder Road Vendetta. With your recommendation and so many others, I can't wait!!!
Love the presentation of all the board games! Thanks for even setting up the games too. You even chose an appropriate shirt for the action shots for Ice haha!!!
Your color grading has reached great heights! This is incredible!!! Like oozing with quality. I have wanted ICE since it was announced but every time I didn't have the $$ to drop. This game looks SOOO good!
Amazing Tim! Definitely you work is a great motivation for all board game content creators. I love it! Regarding the games, I need to try ICE and absolutely agreed with this special edition of castles of burgundy, it is amazing! WILD! 🐺
Picked up Thunder Road at Gen Con...It was one of the games I was targeting to pick up there. This game KILLED....people couldn't not wait to play this with us. It was our most played game at the con and everybody had a great time, even if it did end with some fiery vehicular deaths :). So much chaos, so much fun.
That's pretty wild! I used to love playing Rock N Roll racing on the SNES growing up, seems like this is the board game version of it basically. Looks awesome!
I can't agree enough about the S.E. of CoB, it is such an amazing game and with that AR quality it is perfection. I actually did not hear about ICE and now putting the upcoming ICE Unlimited 2nd Edition on my campaign radar for May. I've never played a racing board game and that Thunder road looks WILD!
THREE?! oh you have excellent taste! i totally agree-love my complex games but sometimes those arent the ones that frequent the table/make the most memorable game nights for me!
@@TimChuon I think I agree that my most memorable game nights were ones with shorter games. I played Fractal and Last Light one week and then the next. Fractal was impressive and maybe the most beautiful game I have ever seen, but it was slow and the combat really resembled rock-paper-scissors, which is fine, but wasn't as intelligent as I had hoped. Last Light was quick, fast-paced and exciting. Dice combat was way more thrilling for me. Our first session of L.L. may sit in our heads at the end of 2024.
Another amazing video! I always love the production value of your videos, it's great to see board games presented so beautifully. Can't wait for the next list!
I have been wanting to try Thunder Road Vendetta since I saw the remake announced! Can't wait for the second Kickstarter because I'm jumping on it this time!
THEY ANNOUNCED A SECOND?! oh count me in too! by the time this video was uploaded, i've actually played through nearly all the expansions already 🤣thanks for the tip!!
Just found your channel. Seems your tastes are similar to mine. Love RA and CoB. Haven’t tried Thunder Road yet but will check out next KS. Subscribed.
right?! it's insane-nearly none of it is cardboard 🤣 and yes totally agreed for the other 2! the new COB was the first time i even tried it and can't go back😅
Wild!!! 🐺 I remember thinking Ice looked cool when it was being crowdfunded. Now I’m regretting not backing it. Tim… stop making me add games to my to-buy list 😆 I don’t know what to get next haha
#1 is def WILD until I remembered losing by 1 space haha. Also love #4 and the way you can take control of the game with tile placement, underrated for the layers of strategy
This list was wild! I want to play ra, castles, and especially thunder road. Did you play world wonders? I want to play that too. Bonsai was a new one i played that I enjoyed.
OH I love Bonsai!! That’s a great tile laying game that’s surprisingly pretty cutthroat 🤣 I haven’t played world wonders yet but love the city building there 🔥
What's wild to me is that I'm staying away from crowdfunding hype, but yet you always seem to have the same games as me. I was unaware of ICE that looks cool though.
Amazing video as always… but I have a pressing question. Were you sitting on something during this long video or squatting the entire time? 😂 I think you’re sitting… but wasn’t sure.
@@TimChuon Thanks!! When it panned out a little more I was mostly sure, but when it was closer I kept thinking you’ve got some insane leg muscles! 😂 💪 Thanks for the reply! Also you’re the first person who has made me actually want to buy Thunder Road (which is wild!). I’m not a car guy but that did look fun! Edit: added wild! 😝
@@bryanyoung9966 hahahah! i appreciate you for sticking to the end! wish i had those leg muscles, but fun fact i actually did squat for the thumbnail of this one because if i stand, my ceiling/overhead paper gets in the shot so you're not far off!! 🤣 YES! im 1000% not a car guy either (and had to find a copy post their ks campaign) but it's way more fun than i thought it'd be! you'd probably enjoy it! 🔥
Tim, I need advice on something concerning using my Canon DSLR Rebel T3i for board gaming over Zoom and I've tried searching for an answer but can't seem to resolve my particular issue. Before I type my question I wanted to ask here first to see if this gets your attention or is there another venue you prefer to be contacted on? Thanks!
I really wanna try Thunder Road V but it's a bummer that I only have my wife to play it with. Oh, and you'd probably know but the production quality of your video is absolutely through the Root!(yes, pun intended and it happens to be another game I can't try with my wife :( )
HAHAH i love this pun! 🤣 i actually just played thunder road tonight at 2 players-it wasn't as bad as i thought it'd be! they add in more hazards for you to deal with + all the expansions help a ton, but it for sure will always be better with more players~ Thanks so much for watching! hopefully you can get some new and awesome 2 player games in though! 🙏
Noooooo not Thunder Road!!!!... I think our group would enjoy it, but I feel it's such a rip-off price tag for a 30min light game!! I had removed it from my Kickstarter to buy and now... I put it back on... I don't know what to do with this one!! 🤷🏽♂️

First video of the year LET'S GO!!!
Your production quality is another level… script, videography, soundtrack, editing, etc…. 10/10 👍
The Production IS RAD !!!!! Also COB is PURE GOLD!
Love the passion and energy you put into your videos (referring to all elements - filming, character, opinions, etc)

This video is WILD! Interesting to see some re-makes, and the production value for some of these games really does seem top tier. Great vid!
YESS thanks for watching till the end! Definitely was the year of remakes 🔥
Awesome Choices! Ice and Thunder Road are also in my top 4 of the year.
Seriously one of the best lists I’ve seen!
Amazing Tim! Definitely you work is a great motivation for all board game content creators. I love it!
Regarding the games, I need to try ICE and absolutely agreed with this special edition of castles of burgundy, it is amazing! WILD! 🐺
Def appreciate the suggested best player counts, thx

awesome list! looks like ICE is the one I'm gonna get!
superb production values as always Tim! it's so good to watch, not skip even a second of it!
That's pretty wild! I used to love playing Rock N Roll racing on the SNES growing up, seems like this is the board game version of it basically. Looks awesome!
Great list and production!
The production of your videos are the best. Just wow.
thats such a huge compliment-thank you so much! 🙌

These games are all Wildly good picks. I love love me some Thunder Road Vendetta! Great stories and chaos every time we play.
just refreshing to see a best of the year list that is not topped by a super complex heavy game. 3 on the list are my best of the year as well.
THREE?! oh you have excellent taste! i totally agree-love my complex games but sometimes those arent the ones that frequent the table/make the most memorable game nights for me!

WILD, Thunder Road is also definitely on my top 5 of 2023!
Another amazing video! I always love the production value of your videos, it's great to see board games presented so beautifully. Can't wait for the next list!
it's a win win when the games being filmed are fun to play thank you so much!
keep up the good work! your production and insight are excellent!
I have been wanting to try Thunder Road Vendetta since I saw the remake announced! Can't wait for the second Kickstarter because I'm jumping on it this time!

@@TimChuon Apparently its coming end of March :)

beautiful video
That top 5 is WILD! 🤌👌
Just found this channel recently! Your video quality is well above all other board game channels. Excited for when you blow up!
hahahah this means a ton Justin! slow and steady 💪
Wild!
Great timing Tim! wishing you a blessed 2024 with lots of good gaming and good vibes.
hey this means a lot! Thank you-happy to have your support going into 2024!
Have made the decision to get the Ice Unlimited in may and will be getting the TRV Maximum Chrome reprint with the new 5th expansion
The new RA production is FANTASTIC! We really like ICE and the new production of Castles of Burgandy is AMAZING!
right?! it's insane-nearly none of it is cardboard 🤣 and yes totally agreed for the other 2! the new COB was the first time i even tried it and can't go back😅
That was a truly WILD list. CoB, oh yeah.
Wild!!! 🐺 I remember thinking Ice looked cool when it was being crowdfunded. Now I’m regretting not backing it. Tim… stop making me add games to my to-buy list 😆 I don’t know what to get next haha
Good job
#1 is def WILD until I remembered losing by 1 space haha. Also love #4 and the way you can take control of the game with tile placement, underrated for the layers of strategy
HAHAH! oh that was too close of a game! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wow. That was wild
thank you for watching till the end!!
This list was wild! I want to play ra, castles, and especially thunder road. Did you play world wonders? I want to play that too. Bonsai was a new one i played that I enjoyed.

Bro's been studying in cinematography or something cuz this production is insane lol

I own, but have never played, Castles of Burgundy.
Amazing video as always… but I have a pressing question.
Were you sitting on something during this long video or squatting the entire time? 😂 I think you’re sitting… but wasn’t sure.
HAHA! oh now i can see how it looks like i was squatting! 🤣 im actually just sitting on a box!
@@TimChuon Thanks!! When it panned out a little more I was mostly sure, but when it was closer I kept thinking you’ve got some insane leg muscles! 😂 💪 Thanks for the reply! Also you’re the first person who has made me actually want to buy Thunder Road (which is wild!). I’m not a car guy but that did look fun!
Edit: added wild! 😝
@@bryanyoung9966 hahahah! i appreciate you for sticking to the end! wish i had those leg muscles, but fun fact i actually did squat for the thumbnail of this one because if i stand, my ceiling/overhead paper gets in the shot so you're not far off!! 🤣
YES! im 1000% not a car guy either (and had to find a copy post their ks campaign) but it's way more fun than i thought it'd be! you'd probably enjoy it!
🔥
@@TimChuon I tend to comment mid video! 😆 thanks for the replies. I’ll see if I can snag a copy!
Ah, man, I was on the fence about ICE, I wish I had backed that one. Fortunately I did get Ra and TR:V Max Chrome, which gets totally WILD!
Wild
Does anyone know if ICE is coming to retail? I missed the crowdfunder and am totally gutted as it looks exactly like my kind of game!
Oh gosh, now I also need to get the expansions for Fury Road: Vendetta! That game is wild! 🐺🚗🔥
The second printing is coming to crowdfunding in the spring
@@marc-antoinelabonte5947 thanks for clearing this up!! definitely looking forward to that one~
@@Andy_Quest YES! i got through nearly all the expansions now by the time this video went out! 🤣theyre all worth it!

The ending part of number 3 and 4 are not matching the video contents. Which one is true 3rd?
Age of Wonders Planetfall is originally a PC Game
Born to be Wild! Hahaha🐺🐺🐺
you'll catch me singing this tonight now! 🤣🤣🤣
Karma is indeed WILD Tim, lols
I wish that I had backed Thunder Road.
Western legenda 💥
I almost backed Ice.
I wish my game, M0SAIC was on this list. Oh well.
Noooooo not Thunder Road!!!!... I think our group would enjoy it, but I feel it's such a rip-off price tag for a 30min light game!! I had removed it from my Kickstarter to buy and now... I put it back on... I don't know what to do with this one!! 🤷🏽♂️
