#boardgames #top10 - Hry
Honestly, those hours long heavy on brain function and planning games can be great, but give me a fun memorable gaming experience and I'll be happy.
Deep Sea Adventure will always be remembered as the game we played over Zoom during the pandemic. I was known as the player who not only risked it all by going for those deeper treasures, but also talked other players into joining me: "We have plenty of oxygen. Don't worry about it!" (Spoiler: It never ends well.)
I will never ever win that game, and I’m ok with it
Such a fun game, usually with no winners. 🤣
Came back from japan last week and bought Deep sea adventure blindly there. After coming back and looking at YT vids about this game that I can't wait to play this with friends
I like Colt Express for some chaotic fun. Works great as long as everyone knows what they are getting in to.
Yup! Perfect for this list
I'm volunteering at a middle-school gaming convention later this month and his is a great list of games to keep the kiddos engaged.
Yeah these are, mostly, great introductory games
I love playing Once Upon a Time. That game has me in stitches ever time, and utilises one's imagination.
Cubitos/Heat are my to-to fun games at the moment - love the racing genre for a casual game
Great games!
Sparkle Kitty and Sparkle Kitty Knights are word card games that are totally about fun and laughter, with minimal strategy. In theme and enjoyment, I think they're a step up from Uno.
I just got Thunder Road Vendetta today. I'm planning on playing it tonight. Other super fun games I'd recommend are: Clank! Catacombs, Camel Up, King of Tokyo, and 5 Minute Dungeon.
Great list! Can't Stop is fire. Love Fireball Island!
I also like Quacks, Ready Set Bet, Colt Express, and Mechs vs Minions for this type of list.
Brilliant List Thank You!
Man, I really need to try Thunder Road. I'm not sure if it's my type of game, but MAN--people continue to talk about this game with such joy and excitement! I really need to try it.
RoboRally for me is definition of ultimate fun and carnage
RoboRally is one of my faves!
Great choice for a pure fun game
Def one of my favorites. Would have put it on my list but I added a caveat that it takes less than 10 minutes to teach. My list would have been too long otherwise.
5 Minute Dungeon is a fun quick co-op game especially with the free timer app that adds some more personality to it.💜
Great top ten list.
I just played Fuji Flush recently, and I loved it!! Now I'm trying to get a copy!
Agree on Deep Sea Adventure and That's not a hat. I also like Roll For It and Zombie Dice for a quick warm-up before a longer game, or a palate cleanser.
Not relevant to the episode's topic, but:
Some friends introduced me earlier this week to a game called Torres (which I hadn't heard of before). As proponents of Santorini, I thought I should make sure you guys know of this game. It uses similar mechanics of building and climbing towers. It's quite different in feel, though. Rather than trying to outmaneuver one or two opponents in reaching a win condition, you are trying to extract the most points. The way that multiple players can score off the same castle, but that they are not all equally rewarded for it, reminds me of Acquire. I had a great time and was well rewarded for ushering my friend's game to the table rather than pushing for one from my collection.
I am obsessed with playing Can't stop after y'all talking about it 🤭.
Y'all's lists are basically my shopping list. Lol Thanks for the recommendations!!
It’s just so much fun
I know it is divisive, but Llama has brought some good energy for us. Not having to think too much about strategy can free one up for trash talking.
I think y'all are crazy for having Thunder Road at 7...clearly it should be at number one! :). I would love to try fireball island, that sounds great as well.
Strike is the perfect game for lunch time at work.
I have been summoned! There definitely is strategy to Strike! You even mentioned some of the strategy as you talked about it - "the answer is to keep rolling dice"!! Strategy and fun aren't mutually exclusive, and Strike is the epitome of a game that demonstrates that! 😝
Hi Ambie! Real talk I love playing Strike with you. Because you prove that there is indeed strategy since you and Toby always crush at Strike!
@@TheBrothersMurph Toby more so than me - although I know the strategy I’m not as good at executing it with the dexterity!
Love the list. I agree with most of them. I think you missed one that is a local favorite. Men At Work. We have more fun fishing the guys out trying not to knock the whole structure down than building it.
For a quick teach, fast play, and enough meaningful decisions that better players have a legitimately better chance to win, I really like 6 Nimmt!
I'll also recommend James Ernest's "Falling", which is a real-time game with a silly theme that can be played in less than 10 minutes. It depends on having a dealer who understands the cards and their interactions (but there are only a few types of cards), and it gets pretty crazy.
Somehow we have never played 6 Nimmt!
I had a great game of Can't Stop with one of you on BGA. It's definitely a great game. Love playing with my Board Game Club Kids as well.
It’s a banger!
Fuji Flush needs a reprint so bad 😭
Kites and Klask are my favourites for pure fun.
Have you tried the chicken dice game? It's a short push your luck game, plays 2-8 players I think, and only takes maybe 10 minutes, but very fun!
I totally agree with Strike! It’s pure concentrated fun
Yup!
Good list, but I would urge you to check out these 2 inexpensive games that are fun oriented games if you haven't tried them. 1. Inn Fighting, a D&D dice chucking game where players have characters and side kicks each with individual abilities to punch, kick and use their special powers to be the last man standing in a all out bar fight. It even has a blank card for you to make your own character. It's a blast.
Also, Flux, which has different variants of the game to which, Monty Python Flux is ridiculously fun.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Great video; really up my alley! I also enjoy: Looping Louie(original version), Fluxx, Skull&Roses, and Cash&Guns.
Cash and Guns is a great choice for this list
Did you guys make this specifically for me? Lol I know yall didn’t but this was one I was really hoping for. Great mind reading and video. Thanks guys.
Glad you liked it!
The worn edges on your road tiles is proof that you've played Thunder Road: Vendetta a lot!
To be fair, that is a prototype lol
Will you do a new top ?? of all time in the future? Would love to see how your tastes have changed with a best of all time series as a comparison to the one from the end of 2022. Possibly at the end of 2024?
Our new Top 100 is starting in May!
Interesting video! 😛💣💚
Gnoming A Round by Grandpa Beck. Super fun set making push your luck. There is gnomes playing golf.
Captain Sonar has remarkably few rules for how much intense fun it gives you. Once real time kicks off, I’m giddy. DIVE DIVE DIVE!
Good call!
BREAK THE SAFE would be the perfect game for you guys!! Please give it a try. One of the most underrated “kids” games out there
Ooo cool! Well take a look at it!
Oi. Quirky circuits was a miss for me and my daughter. Also Magic Maze, The Crew, Sky Team. We may just have a problem with coop games where you can’t talk. 🤔
We tried Quirky Circuits once and it fell down flat hard. Sold it the next week.
That why games are great, some work for some, some work for others
What gaming table is that if I may ask?
It’s an Origin table from Game Theory Tables
Add Dodos Riding Dinos… it’s fun game.
Good call!
Surfosaurus Max has replaced Fuji Flush for me. But Fuji is a bit more laid back
Fair! Surfosaurus max is amazing
I stmpathize with Strike because i also have a spongy, bouncy bottom.
Don’t we all
Fun for me equals party games, just stupid fun not too thinky
Fair, party games fall into this category for sure
Interesting pick with Rush MD. Never played it but I thought it has some kinship with Kitchen Rush. I love Kitchen Rush, but it feels a lot of work to eke out profit (after paying your people). It almost feels like Agricola in that sense. And while it's fun, it's not light. If Rush MD is lighter, I'm intrigued.
The reason why we like Rush M.D more than Kitchen Rush is because even though there is actually more going on in the game, the game is easier to win. So it doesn’t feel like you have no hope like you do in kitchen rush. We found kitchen brush to be just too hard.
Try Kites!
Too funny. I haven’t played any of these.
I got a list of 20 games that are just fun. I added a caveat for my list that it takes less than 10 minutes to teach.

Camel Up is a great choice

Y'all play games to have fun?? Weird
I know right??
these games are all super boring high luck mindless games. dont buy them
Uh oh someone's allergic to fun
@@TheBrothersMurph no, i just think there are way better casual games that are still low stress, but not mindless. Like Dixit, Azul, Mandala, high society, ohanami, scout, no thanks, etc.
some other fun and quick games
Cabanga
Chicken!
Qwixx
Chicken and Quixx are great!
