Thanks for this list! Just bought Hive and I can't wait to play it!
I watch these to judge people. You have good taste, sir. Good video.
Ha! Thank you for the compliment!
If I was to remake this video today, I might have a few different games on the list, (Revolver Noir published by Button Shy would certainly be added, probably knocking Mr Jack Pocket off the list), but I still enjoy all of the games in this video :-)
Since you think I have good taste, I'd love to hear what other games you would recommend for people that like my kinds of games!
Great video, good variety, I know and own many of these but you make me discover some, thank's
Thank you for an awesome video! :D good recommendations and interesting information! I like the way you made comparisons of Star Realm releases.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Reallyenjoyed the video and the pace!
Subscribed right away! Very nice game presentation style 👍
Hive Pocket has a space in my bag when it's nice weather to go on a walk and gets played when we stop to drink/eat something.
My copy of Palm Island is currently in transit to my mailbox :)
Friday sees some play, but when I'm gonna go for a solo game in this genre, I choose Robinson Crusoe these days.
Mint Works was something I backed, but got lost in transit... :(
And Hero Realms is still one of my favorite games to play when we only have an hour or so!
Might have to give Strawlopolis and a shot after watching this! (and perhaps buy Mint Works for a second time)
I pnpd these - sprawlopolis, mint works and palm island- and there is a tuck box variant of Friday as well so it is portable.
All lovely games.
Hi, where did you find the pnp versions?
Loved this video since I've really got into mini games recently. I have and love Friday, mint works and sprawlopolis and am awaiting circle of wagons. Have hive but have only played app. Will have to check out the others. Like the look of Mr jack pocket. Had seen it instore but never seen it played. Great run-throughs! Had love letter but eventually got rid of it. I am loving Orchard and got nine tiles panic which the whole family love. Citadels, fox in the forest, railroad ink and arboretum other great small games I love. Also have tybor the builder of oh my goods family, valley of kings and mottainai so keen to try those but trying to explain the latter to my wife stops me from breaking that out!
Friday, is one of my favorite games!
Great video! Because of you I bought Friday and I am so happy with the purchase of this game. I really like it and I want to thank you for mentioning the game in this video
No problem at all, I really enjoy it!
Best to make a cardboard holder for palm island. Played it about 30-40 times and it has unlockables!
Wow, great job! You sold me on every game I didn't already have on this list... In Mr Jack Pocket I think you might be missing the rule that tiles get turned at the start so that none of the detectives get to see anyone. It's much more evenly matched that way... Other pocket-sized games I highly recommend are Omen: A Reign of War (old Small Box Games edition), Hanabi, and Iron Man 2: Game of War (or its ancestor, Star Wars: Clash of the Lightsabers).
Thanks for The Blood of an Englishman recommendation. I really dig the art style and how it works. Will ask my local game store if they can order it.
Very highly recommended, if you've got another person who likes two-player games.
I appreciate your posting your picks. I’ve purchased Friday, Hive, and Sprawlopolis after watching your video.
Those are all fantastic games! I still play and enjoy all of those, these years later :-)
Wow the design on palm island is brilliant.
It's not new, but it is a god game. If you like that, you will like Dragons of Etchinstone.
nice overvioew, thank you
Great descriptive but to the point video. I think I'll be checking out Mr. Jack Pocket.
I had Mint Delivery for a few plays, but the wife and I gave it to a family that needed some games. It was cute and enjoyable.
Sounds like a good plan. I've played Mint Delivery a couple times, but I strongly prefer Mint Works to it. Such a great game!
@@LucasGentry I just happened to see Dice Towers top ten tiny games. In it Tom said he liked Mint Works better than Mint Delivery.
Great list! Other pocketable games to consider:
- Coup
- One Night Ultimate Werewolf
- The Mind
- Coloretto
- Sushi Go
- Innovation
- Cockroach Poker (never played but it is often recommended)
- Onitama (you'll have to make your own set)
Some, though portable like Friday, will have to be PnP and cut down in order to actually fit in a pocket.
Thanks for the suggested additions to the list! I've only played Coup out of that list, but I can at least confirm that it was a lot of fun!
Innovation is one of my most favorite games. Recently, I found a 1st edition sealed box for a great price. I can't wait to play it.
Great video! Basically interested in everyone!
Made a lot of heavier games lately that fit in your pocket and those are free. Tiny Tokaido is absolutely brilliant.
For solo there is under falling skies.
BTW You have a great, very dramatic voice. I thought Jack Nicholson was teaching me the game.
I like your channel, now I know ways to play solo because nobody wants to play with me c:
Cool I was looking for solo dungeon crawlers but you gave me more options for my upcoming trip.
Glad to help! :-)
And if you find some good solo dungeon crawlers, feel free to post your finds here! I'm always on the lookout (though I rarely purchase them) for solo dungeon crawlers that could make you feel like you're playing a tabletop RPG. My favorite so far is Pathfinder Adventure Card Game Mummy's Mask. Not really a "take on a trip" type game, since the box is pretty hefty, but it is a fun dice chucker with a great sense of character progression as you move through the campaign.
@@LucasGentry One Deck Dungeon is a good dungeon crawler solo..👍
@@wl5609 I see it more of a nerdy fantasy solitaire. Lol. But is very good and entertaining.
Have you tried D6 I just got it and is amazing. And with few tweaks can become an rpg easily.
Grazie mille gentìlissimo come sempre
Must be men's pockets xD But in all seriousness wonderful and super helpful video! Thank you!
No thanks! Actually looks pretty fun!
Now if only I could get a third person to come over and play........ Lol
Thank you very much! nice list! May I ask what program did you use to make the Star Realms life cards?
Thank you very much
I just used paint dot net (getpaint.net). There are many more powerful paint programs, but this is the easiest to use free one that I've seen.
Thanks❤
does anyone know of any games like classic playing cards ( 4 suits type ) in regards to how many very different games you can play with only one deck, eg. cheat, chase the ace, pontoon, 11's, rummy, fish, ect. ect. i love how you can do this but obviously basically no theme at all for it, if you know of any games to fit this please recommend, if not ... i think the first people to make them will have many sales.
N.B doesn't have to be just card games if you have other good recommendations. thank you.
Poker?
@@Doggmatic_ thanks but I mean games that are not the ' playing card ' deck
While not a small box, take a look at Looney Labs’ Pyramid Arcade.
I have Pocket Mars and The Manhattan Project: Chain Reaction. Both pocket size.
Nice. I've heard of them both, but haven't played either. Are they some of your favorite small box games?
@@LucasGentry they are some of my favorite small box/ pocket board and card games. I even have Pocket Sub and the sequel of Love Letter called Lost Legacy.
You forgot the 2 series of Perplext Pack O Games that ,look like gum packs with 3-letter names.
I didn't forget them, I've just never played them! But thanks for the suggestion!
Hey man I made a new card game with a few other guys we have over 4000 cards I was wondering if you would show it on your channel
No, sorry.
Just play friday with the app and it'll be easy portable. Great game
Totally agree, super game.
Yeah, the app is awesome. Also helps with the edge cases in the rules.
The big problem with the game is the high learning curve to be able to play it successfully.
@@tychay i played app and it was just too hard for me. I didn't have the stamina to keep trying
@@dave3805 Try this boardgamegeek.com/thread/2032141/nictnics-big-friday-strategy-guide It is difficult to win Friday, but learning to will reward your deck-building skills in other games. I win easy level around 90% of the time so it is doable.
@@tychay thanks for tip

Top 10* Pocket* Board* Games
Fair point :-)
And here I just carry a regular Spanish deck and some dice.
no love for sushi go? 😰
I've actually still never played it! I see the little box in the store, and pass it up because there would be so much more replayability in the big box, but then I end up not getting the big box because I don't have people to play it with right now. It's a vicious circle that will probably only end when I play someone else's copy.
@@LucasGentry ohhh alright! Good video by the way!
What do you mean by 10-ish? 10.7? 9.85?
Roughly pocket sized = purse games
