The Brothers Murph take a look at their all time favorite games of all time as of 2017! Do you agree with the list? Disagree? Let us know!!
Congrats on your first RUclips top 10! Please keep making content. I really think that you bring a unique voice and perspective and can get up there with some of the greats like Rado, Game Boy geek, Dice Tower, drive-thru reviews, Starlit Citadel, Etc. In a year or two, everyone in the board game Community should know your name! Keep kicking ass. To be honest, you guys are as fun or more fun than all of those celebs I just mentioned.
Matt, thank you so much for this wonderful comment! The support you and everyone else here has shown us in our short time here on the youtubes has been amazing! Thank you so so so much!
It’s funny to look at these older videos where Mike is the one with the long hair
How have you guys only got
Thank you so much Stu! We are growing, though slowly. That is the reality of things though, if your quality is good and you're consistent, you grow, just slowly. Our numbers will rise in time :)
Guys u are so damn entertaining. So refreshing and unique! This channel will explode! Greetings from Germany!
That's so nice! Thank you so so much!
you guys are incredibly enjoyable to watch together. great vid
Thanks Ben! That's incredibly kind!
Entertaining top ten guys! Love the passion and authentic excitement you had for the games and each other’s lists.
I started watching your newer videos and decided to check out your old ones. Your hair reversal threw me off. Anyway, you guys crack me up; keep it up.
Hmm...GPS? Who needs it when you have SWPS (Small World Positioning System). I love it! Keep the great videos coming!
So true!!
Awesome top ten Video. I just shared your channel with my sister & parents. Makes us laugh and gives great info. A wonderful combination.. and I just saw you have 25 to 11! Hope you guys get to/have played Clank in Space. Amazing game. I'm pretty sure you will love it.
Just picked up Shakespeare this weekend and playing it tonight. Happy to see you guys love it.
Thanks for making the list - really interesting to hear your perspectives. Just listening to you guys makes me feel like we have been mates for ages.
That's fantastic! So glad you enjoyed and that's what we are going for! We want to be friendly so if/when we meet in real life we will already be off and running!
Would be awesome to meet you both, but unless you're planning a trip to the land of Hobbits, the chances are low.
Are you in New Zealand!?
I am ^_^
Ok this is now the third listener we have who lives in New Zealand! We gotta come out there! There are games to be had, and Middle Earth to explore!
You guys are soooooooo fun to watch! Great Job!
Thanks!!!! We really appreciate it!
When you said viticulture and you mentioned that you hadn't played tuscany, I gasped at the same time you did. Tuscany is a game changer. Awesome expansion. Worth the price for the expanded board.
CoasterMagicX2 we couldn’t agree more! Now that we have Tuscany there’s no going back
Great list guys! Now I need to try Shakespeare and Dungeon Petz. You guys should try Tuscany for Viticulture, made a good game great for my wife and I.
This was fun to go back and watch!
Another great video, thanks guys!
Thanks!!!
Really nice top ten! Made me discover some really interesting games too!
I highly suggest all of them! If that wasn't obvious lol
Rewatching 9 months later just to see what your tastes were... will be fun to see what the next list holds!
I think I watched this a year ago. A few months ago, I was in a used bookstore and found Shakespeare for $20. If it weren’t for y’all touting it, I might have passed it by. I love it! It is such a fun game.
Love your lists, you HAVE to get Tuscany, so worth it just for the alternate board. Going to have to give Clank a try!
Man, I love your guys' taste in games. Baseball Highlights and Lanterns are top 20 for me, Clank is #8, Pandemic is #2, and Legendary is #1. I feel like we'd have a blast playing together! It's cool that you guys don't drink, too.
We absolutely would have a great time playing so we have to find a time to do just that!!!
I'm glad to see some love for Lord of the Rings : TCG, which is in my top 10. I had a choice between Arkham and LOTR, and went straight for Lord of the Rings simply on the source material. I'm very much a Tolkien fan, and can care less about anything Cthulhu/Lovecraft. I'm glad it's an LCG, cause you can build and buy at your own pace, plus the game is stupid hard sometimes which add to the replay/frustration. BTW Gandalf's ring he wears is called Narya, which was given to him by Cirdan (which belonged to Gil-Gilad if I'm not mistaken. :):):)
My tastes in games go in line with you guys, a lot of the one's mentioned I own and love as well. Would love to play a game with you guys. Plus I really have to try out Shakespeare and Dungeon Petz
We feel the same way. Don't mind Lovecraft, but it's LOTR all day. I(N) read them every year, in the middle of Fellowship right now.
And it's nice because there are so many expansions at this poiont that they have basically every character. Wanna play as Cirdan the Shipwright? Go for it. You wanna team him up with Boromir? ok!
Yes let's please play a game together at some point!! And Shakespeare is amazinggggggg
I don't find the theme of Shakespeare or Histrio that interesting (sorry Nick - or is it Mike? I keep getting you guys mixed up). Would I still like them? And are they good for light gamers like my family?
Hey Im sure youve read the silmarillion? Check out the album "nightfall in middle earth" by blind guardian.
Clank is my top 5. Pandemic is top 20. Cheers! And you guys have made me wants to try Shakespeare! My wife teaches high school English and literally teaches Shakespeare, so I think she will actually play. Haha.
It is SO great. Love Shakespeare
This was the first video of The Brothers Murph that I watched and - whoosh - a few weeks later I finally got my copy of Shakespeare!!
So many underrated games like Dungeon Petz, Shakespeare, and Baseball Highlights
Great List! Marvel Legendary is a big favorite of mine too! Now i just need to find a better way to store it so set-up isn't to long.
We made our own custom box for it, to help with storage and set up. And if you haven't I would print out the fancy dividers people have made on BGG. It makes finding everything so much easier.
I have everything that's been made so far and I have everything fit into the base Legendary box and the base Villains box. All of the heroes fit in the base box (I cut some thick cardstock to make three rows and fit the box on top), and all the villains, schemes, wounds and such fit in the Villains box.
It's full enough that another big box expansion would have it spilling over. Also, sleeving the cards would be a nightmare and double the space required. I'm gonna need a new solution myself soon, but it's worth it for my #1 game!
Great video! You guys sold me on some games I was on the fence about. Even the games I KNOW I hate I still watched cuz you guys have great banter! Just subscribed!! 😜👍
Ah well we're glad! What were you on the fence about?? Thanks for the subscribe!!
The Brothers Murph I was on the fence about “Viral”. I love the artwork and I’ve watched reviews on it but I wasn’t sure if it would be any fun. Your passion for the game sold me on it! I think I’m going to grab it. Also the baseball one sounds good. And I’ve never heard of “Histrio” but I’m about to watch a review on it!
Finally someone else has Shakespeare in their top 10!
Damn right!
Nice job guys. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Darren!
Thanks for this video, great list! I'm really glad to hear Shakespeare getting some love, one of my favorites as well. I'm curious if you guys ever have had time for longer 2-player games like Star Wars Rebellion or War of the Ring, and what you think of those? I just sat down with War of the Ring tonight to go through the rules, and it's a beast, but very thematic. Love the videos, keep on Brawlin' Bros!
We do, albeit rarely. We just don't generally have the time or energy for those big games.We have War of the Ring because we are massive Tolkien fans, but we rarely play it because it's such a beast. But it's sooooo worth it when we do. I(N) would love to play Rebellion at least once, but I have no interest in owning it or really seeking it out. It would be more a play of opportunity for me. If someone wanted to teach me at a convention, and I had time, I'd be down.
Indeed. We've played Rebellion twice now, and each time (with a teach) it was a 5 hour game. Now we know how to play we could probably do it in 3 hours, but that's still an investment.
Will you review Hunt for the Ring?
Woo Dungeon Petz!
Let's play at Meeplecon! if you are going this year
Yup! We've got our tickets!
rad! We'll bring Shakespeare!
That’s one of the enduring qualities of the BrosMurph, they readily actively engage with their audience! Maybe it’s because they only have 11K 👀subscribers so they can still manage the time 🤣🤣, but it’s probably because They Love Gaming and the social community that goes with it. This comment was 2 years ago, but I hope that this game of Shakespeare came to pass at Meeplecon. 🥰
steelman774 aww I didn’t actually get time to play Shakespeare with them, although I did play Dungeon Petz with Nick!
Lord of the Rings TCG is easily my number 1!! My brother-in-law and I play it just about every other wednesday. Nick, Gandalf wears Narya the ring of Fire :)
That's great! I feel like no one ever talks about LOTR TCG anymore! We still love it, but man oh man all of the money is needed for it!
Damn! I knew that!
I love LOTR which made the TCG a shoe-in. You guys are really the only other media creators that I've heard mention it.
Well it's older now. And Arkham Horror TCG is all the buzz now.
Would like to see you do run throughs for your top ten games and maybe co-op games
If you guys love worker placement so much, what are your thoughts on Champions of Midgard?
Gamera 23 we have only played it once but really liked it! We want to play with the Valhalla expansion because we hear that just takes in next level. We will probably get the game with the expansions. Maybe over Christmas?
Champions of midgard absolutely murdered lords of waterdeep for me, will never play that again now and the Valhalla expansion took it into my top 5!
Is it something you need all of the expansions for?
great list guys, two recommendations given your lists. have you tried yedo or xenoshyft?
We have played Xenoshyft once a while back and really enjoyed it! Would love to play it more!
The Brothers Murph just played xenoshyft again tonight, for as fun as that game is it seems to have flown mostly under the radar. yedo scratches a similar itch for me like Shakespeare. it's a great worker placement but it's a bit tighter than Shakespeare giving me more tense cursing flip the table moments...plus it's beautiful
Viticulture is amazing! Wow, I need to go to a conference to game with you two!
I absolutely personify my games. My husband has to remind me all the time that games don't have feelings and we don't always have to play a game we haven't played in a while. However, I will say I think it's somewhat justified, because what's the point in having a game and never playing it? But we feel you. You're not alone in the fear of offending our games.
Yeees very entertaining. Especially the Shakespeare part! 😂
Thank ya!
Have you guys had a chance to play Terraforming Mars or Blood Rage? Both are fun euro games with good theme. Dungeon Petz is awesome.
We have played both, we actually have Blood Rage but rarely play it because we don't have the player counts. And the people we usually play with don't like that sort of game. But Mike and I really like it. We just played TM for the first time a week or so ago. We didn't get a full game in and we were pretty frustrated because the rulebook sucks. So we need to give it another go.
Ok dudes I have been on the fence about marvel legendary for a year or so now...I love deck builders and I’m reaaaaaaally considering it especially after your play through...what expansions are the best? Gimme your top 3!
My man you gotta get it! So much fun! This is my(N) suggestions. Get the core game, Dark City, Civil War, and Guardians of the Galaxy. I have heard the Fantastic Four is amazing but we've never played it so I can't say. Also haven't played X-Men just an FYI
The Brothers Murph I actually got the base game, dark city and guardians today in a trade lol...the guy was practically giving it away! (Super nice guy btw) I’m PUMPED to play it over thanksgiving! Thanks for the expansion suggestions!
No prob! Play the hell out of it!!
I respect your LotR knowledge!
You two could make a Western movie or something. Robbing a bank maybe 😁
Per Sørlie love it! I could see them playing characters (who are also brothers) who were brought onboard as sidekicks by some evil mastermind who gets nicked or possibly killed at the beginning of the heist leaving THEM in charge but totally unprepared for the pressure. They would start out as the obvious “henchmen” rolls but become fish-out-of-water as they try to take over the responsibilities of the heist. Maybe the twist will come towards the end (3rd chapter) as they have to make a moral choice that raises them to become hero’s at the end of the movie and saving the good people of the western town. Maybe they befriend a teller or bank mgr (or both) but then the Mastermind escapes custody and kills the Sheriff and his Deputy leaving the town unprotected so when he returns to the bank to exact his revenge the Brothers turn and take a stand for their new friends who were the first people to respect them despite their being traditional outlaws. After they kill the villain they stay and become the new Sheriff and Deputy of the town vowing to protect its citizens. Because they love long names, it could be called... The Brothers Murph: A Western Heist Adventure! 🤣
Have you played Clank In Space! yet? Thoughts vs Clank!?
We have, albeit only once. I(Nick) personally like normal Clank better, and I feel like Mike feels the same. Ultimately I would play the hell out of either of them though. And especially with the new Mummy map expansion coming out for Clank, we are super excited!
Number 2 was actually awesome.
Haha! Thanks! Viticulture for lifeeee
Regarding Nick's number 8 - Lanterns, just the base game or with the expansion? My wife and I like playing Lanterns but wondering if the expansion is any good?
Hey Nick! We have the expansion and really like it! It's relatively inexpensive so I'd say you should totally get it! There are 5 mini expansions in it and each game you randomly choose 2 of them, so it's different all the time. Really great!
Thanks for the reply! Sounds like a stocking stuffer for Christmas!
Aren't these the guys that used to do the Thrift Store show?
You heard about the mummy expansion for clank!?
Yes! So excited!
Alright... the Brothers Murph have now supplanted Zee as my closest favorite games doppelgangers.
Which means I really need to try Shakespeare now!
Ooooo things are heating up!
And yes, definitely try shakespeare
I've been wanting to! Can't find it to try out anywhere :)
Maybe I can get it to the table at one of your meetups.
Yeah definitely! You are coming to the one on the 26th right?
Indeed! Planning on it.
Have you played Viticulture with Tuscany yet!?!?
Yes! We got it shortly after this video and we will NEVER go back!
Yeah I do that and yeah you’re both definitely nuts - a pistachio and a macadamia
Its all about the Español!
Also just subscribed. I love that we have similar taste in games. Looking forward to your content.
Hamilton. Nice!
wow! you look so much different with the long hair!! Like lord of the rings cool!
Ha! Yeah it’s a vibe for sure!
What game is the number 9 intro clip?
Drakkan its an awesome game with fantastic art called Abyss!
Not nuts... I feel bad for my unplayed games too.
I love Shakespeare, especially with the expansion. But sadly it doesn’t reach the table very often as someone in my game group says the theme really doesn’t appeal. 😢
That's too bad! And we LOOOOOVE the expansion! Adds a lot of thought to the game without much complexity
Guys add your lists to the video description!
ESPN 8 the Ocho
Pandemic :P
you guys traded hair!!
Nick Ferrer it’s a stipulation in our family that one of us must always have long hair
@@TheBrothersMurph haha shampoo companies must love you guys.
also, know you both like worker placement games - not sure if you are fans of Eric Lang, but his game The Godfather: Corleone's Empire is a cool choice in this category.
Love the channel, thanks for the work you do.
Love the way brother Murph is trying to justify not having lotr lcg on his top 10 while also trying to justify his lotr geek festyness. Don’t worry brother Murph, you’re a cool dude.
TEE-gra?? Really? 😖
Your puny smash up base game offends me.
