#BoardGameHangover - Hry
Love this format, please do more of these!
Feels like this is a more objective rating, to see what you actually think of the game after the first hype!
I've always described Ares Expedition as "Race for Terraforming Mars" but i do still keep them both. In my experience, its easier to introduce a new player to Ares and THEN have them learn Terraforming Mars just so they don't feel so overwhelmed. Also, unsolicited observation here, you guys should have links to the reviews you talk about that show up at the moment you identify the new game :P
"Race for Terraforming Mars" is a great description. And will add links to the reviews in the description. Thanks!
Me and my girlfriend have limited time to play. Would Ares expedition be worth it?
Double the amount the trackers advance to simulate a 4 player game. This cuts playtime down by A LOT. @@AIQ88
@@AIQ88 When you get used to the rules, it's definitely playable in less than an hour, so I would definitely recommend it if you want game that isn't too long
Dune Imperium is one of my favorite games that I try to play every month along with Root and Everdell. Wingspan ranks up there, too, but I've been playing it more on Board Game Arena than in person, but my favorite version is the duo mode of Wingspan Asia.
As to my board games tastes over time...they've certainly changed a lot since I first started playing 20 years ago, but I just started building up my own collection over the past 5 years, and so far my favorites have remained fairly consistent since then with Root continuing to shine as my all-time favorite game since even before then.
My playgroup decided that Lords of Waterdeep (with any of 2 expansions) is strictly just an upgrade over Dune Imperium. So if you haven't yet, try it out.
You are the forever nemesis guys - keep it up!!
Great video guys, loved the format.😁😁
Keep up the awesome work, great video.
Thank you guys, amazing content! You are my favorite content creators!
L❤️VE this video. Can’t wait to watch the next one.
Finally! I was looking for a source of all your must haves but didn't find any... so I "had" to watch most of your reviews😂
Love this idea and the review keep it up!
This is fantastic!
Great video idea!
Love the channel! Thanks for your work.
You ever considered reviewing classics every once in a while?
Great list indeed. While I initially loved Spirit Island, it rarely gets played because I have to be in a specific mood to play it. Your review of Ares Exp. led me to get it and love it still.
Love your show
I'm simple man, I see positive mentioning of Nemesis and I instantly like the video
YOU ARE BOTH AWESOME! ❤❤❤
Okay I liked I commented and I’ve been subscribed for a while 😂 y’all better keep making these
Please 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Whaaaattt.. Spirit Island feels like multiplayer solitaire?? How.. do you guys play with silent mode house rule or something
I haven’t played that much SI but I have to second this, like it’s all about comboing moves and working together
Overwatch Reaper shirt 👌
Great idea to do a follow-up review video after you've spent more time with the games! Love this!
More to come!
Best Board game channel
Must-Have game channel*
More of this please
Last one makes me sad. :-(. Ares Expedition might be one of my all time favorite games
Fun video… was project elite one of your must haves?
Just discovered this channel and I'm loving your content guys! Funny and relaxed format to talk about board games :3 Where are you from? I think I notice some accent hehe
Welcome aboard! You are not wrong about the accents :D We're from Latvia
I've had to change BGG ratings with more exposure to other games. I love this idea.
About dune, true. thank you haha
Love these guys
keep up!
We needed more
Already working on the Part II :)
Great video 😊 It would be nice and improve interaction if you put the game reviews you mention up right as cards.
We tried it, but only 5 cards can be added. :( But you can find all the reviews in the description:)
Back on track guy's 🎉
Was there no more room for Wonderlands War? I noticed it’s not on the shelf behind you so I thought it was popping up in this video. Love that game.
Can’t fit them all in one video so we’re going chronologically from the oldest review to the newest ;) This game is still to come
"Must-have" video right here ;)
To me, thats the true review of a game
I literally burned out all the games I loved, eventually, with every game I adored I came to the point when I felt fond of the game but couldn't be bothered to pick it up and play it again ... Top 5 I play at the moment are, Dwellings of Everdale, The Great Wall, Castles of Burgundy, Vindication and Wonderland wars...
I need to know where wonderlands war stands now that you own a copy. It’s become my top game of all time! Love the format
I'd really love to own this game, but my collection is still young and growing and i feel like i could spend that amount of money on several games that i really want. Could you try explaining what you love about it so much?
@@jeremynachtman4626 Bag building, card drafting, area control(, combat in the most beautiful production. So much variability and replay ability. I truly love this game so so much and would play it everyday if my friends would.
I love all factions and how each time you play them the game will be different and thus you will play them differently, yet there is space to force something if you really want it. So many paths to victory but more importantly, fun!
The bag building and the reveals that happen in battles are so engaging and regularly create fantastic and memorable moments. The quality of this and touch point feel is so nice in my super deluxe edition, and that absolutely contributes to my love for this game.
@@mitchslego6601 Thank you for the response! It has a lot of my favorite aspects in a game, I think maybe ill have to spend the money on it at some point🤷♂️
best games ever
Thank you for single-handedly making Dune Imperium the board game goliath that it is today. ;)
Name of the channel should be "Boardgame Must Haves" 😂
Have you guys tried the new Dune imperium : uprising, WITH the rise of ix + immortality expansions? I have Dune Imperium + the expansions, but i'm still unsure if the expansions play good with uprising
For me uprising doesn't match with the expansions
I found Dune Imperium on my own. However, maybe you guys have influenced how I found it. Thank you.
Everdell
Dune
Arch Nova
Heat
7 Wonders Duel
feed the Kraken
HEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! What about Long Shot the Dice Game???????? (Also ranked as must have by both of you)
Can’t fit them all in one video so we’re going chronologically from the oldest review to the newest ;) This game still to come
This was fun, because i agreed in some cases with things like Wingspan, its great, especially initially, but after playing it several times it loses its charm. Still fun, just not as amazing as i first thought!
Not played Wyrmspan yet, i do wonder if it would manage to recapture the feeling, however i wish they'd stuck with the nature theme. Was part of the appeal.
I sold Spirit Island, I just found it tooooo tough. I couldn't get into it as I could hardly ever win. I guess some games just don't gel with you!
That's alright! There are tons of different games in the hobby and there's a reason for that. That's why we try to make our reviews more about who the game is for rather than focusing on just how good it is.
@@BoardGameHangover yeah that is actually really well done. It’s actually hard knowing if a game is for you or not just from someone else’s enthusiastic review!
Wingspan I really wanted to like, but it fell flat for me. I gave it so many chances and every gaming session left me feeling unfulfilled, which is a rarity with these kinds of games because I love the genre.
Merchants & Marauders, however, was a massive drop, going from one of my favourites (or "hotness", really) into a game I don't even want to play anymore, letalone keep in my collection. It does so painfully many things right, and since Sid Meier's Pirates! is one of my all-time favourite video games, this one was an easy one to get into. But unfortunately it is LONG, complicated, ridiculously random (ie. you can get ridiculously overpowered instakill cards at random and death is super punishing) and especially the ship vs ship battles just drag like crazy. Such a shame, I think this game is so close to being one of the best sandbox style games out there, but has some critical weaknesses that just makes the experience miserable for me.
Smash Up! also left my collection after being one of my go-to easy card games. I don't think the player count scales well, two players can be a blowout at random and four player game drags on for way too long. At the end of the day, it just felt lacking and other card games have taken its place. Also, my tastes as a gamer have definitely evolved more into a heavy eurogame direction, so that might also be a factor. Unlike M&M, I would still play this one occasionally though, just not enough to warrant shelf space in my own collection.
Smash Up was one of the first 10 or so games I got; it looked so fun on Wil Wheaton’s TableTop and the theme was right up my alley at the time.
These days I find the gameplay tedious and the theme not exactly cringe, but just… kinda pandering. Funny how your tastes can change so much in 10 years.
Have you played the cases with all 4 MicroMacro maps together?
there are 4 now?
No, we haven't. Feels like you need to rent a stadium to have enough space for that. :D
@@BoardGameHangover damnnn there are 4 now? though i wonder how to see all 4
My favorite Jānis.
My favorite Valters! /JG
I really came around to Root after not enjoying my first few plays. And inversely, Dwellings of Eldervale has definitely lost its shine for me
I thought there were more
Can't fit all of them in one video :)
OK.. I see how it is.. You say you will play Dune ANY TIME, but then I ask you to join this Sunday and you prefer to do something with your family. So WHICH ONE IS IT? You better all be playing Dune there!
Will send pics ;) /JG
No "Very Good" on the rating scale. Maybe this is same as "Really Good"?
G meant to write down "Really Good"
these are "must have" board games? Wha...?!
comment
The only must have games for me are the ones I love playing. For me, none of the games on your list are must have games.
For me, Dune Imperium dropped from "Must Have" to "Fantastic" with the release of Uprising. Uprising just fixes all the bits of the original that irked me.
Like, subscribe, comment? man, that's a lot of work!! I'll pass.
#KeepTheSeriesAlive
Ark Nova is definitely too long for what it is and only very good. There are so many other games out there which are better than this and therefore its not a must have.
Half of these games are toilet games
You should start your own channel!
