    I am acutely aware of my brains inability to say Nehemiah correctly. I have no idea why, but my brain just wants to flip the sounds around, i feel like im saying it right and it comes out wrong. Deeply annoying for me, and possibly for you too

      As for the game itself. I had a great deal of fun playing E&Z and appreciated the puzzle it presented. But I also already have a lot of games in this niche, many from the same publisher, that im not sure it's going to hang around. There's only so much time for tight action optimization games and my regulars still aren't burned out on the likes of Paladins or underwater cities. . Very good game if this particular thing is absolutely your jam though as the game is well tested, tight and clever. But even the best soprano singing the greatest aria's gets tired after a while, and you just want to hear some loud mouth from Liverpool mangle their words over a jangly telecaster as a change of pace.

    • @fireshrine77
      @fireshrine77 8 месяцев назад

      @@mrsamtheman80i don’t consider that as high. Medium at most as the interactions are mainly indirect (ie blackmarket reset, inquisition, bumping others in the castle) besides stealing workers for AotWK. Good case of high interaction is a game of brass birmingham and terra mystica.

    So when you play a card for its main action you also get to do its trade ability and later on you get that bonus flag and scoring method when it slots in on the right side of your board? So you get all parts of the card?

    • @3MBG
      @3MBG  9 месяцев назад +1

      Yep. You get the main action strength of all 3 cards showing, including the one just played. you can also either trade or flip a development tile paying its cost. And then score 4 cards by games end. And all players have the same 10 to start

    The conclusions are interesting, because I am considering how far to go with the different Garphill Games series. Should this replace one or more of their other games in my collection like Scythia prompted me to sell my North Sea Raiders? Do I have space for this plus all the West Kingdom games? I'm not sure yet. And I haven't started any of the South Tigris games yet because there is just so much.

      This is what I'd love to know more of. He's obviously following sales figures; so does the average gamer play a boardgame like 5 times before moving it on or are people collecting everything in his series? Is his returns lower every game, is he going to fast/slow, selling more and more? I'll never know. Good to have a NZ publisher though, so I know how much its costing me to live in Australia; about $40-50 a boardgame it would seem.

      I regularly play (and have done so for years) all the west kingdom games, and Circadians first light. I've sold on Hadrian's Wall and Legacy of You. The ones I've kept I love, the others were good but grew stale over time. (I also have chaos order but rarely get to play it.)
      I'm awaiting the 2 South Tigris games, and am probably going to back this one! But I'm always interested in what they put out.

      Ok, i won't lie, i buy everything Garphill Games puts out. I also try and delux them the best i can too :P Not bought North Sea yet though, was wondering if i should grab that, or Scythia? I'm more inclined to go Scythia due to it being much cheaper, but i do prefer the art style of North. Anyhow, i'll be backing this one regardless! Great review.

    There are so many different thematic games, I'm curious - why were you tentative about the biblical theme?

    • @3MBG
      @3MBG  Месяц назад +1

      Three reasons. One, because many biblical themed games are designed as bible lessons first, games 2nd. And are therefore rubbish as actual games.
      Secondly, as a general rule, nothing is more polarizing as religion. Not war, not colonialism, not capitalism. If you want tons of arguing in your life, voice a strong opinion about faith and then sit back and watch the explosions.
      Thirdly people always ask questions like this, which aren't about the game and always feel like they are trying to start a fight based on how i respond, using whatever i say as a launching point into some personal tirade or endless debate. Something i have found over the years to be both time consuming and pointless.
