- One's collection is often a source of joy; a proud display of your very favourite boxes that have brought you so much delight over the years. What to do about the problem of 'THE GAPS, then? The ghastly, unsightly spaces-between-the-boards? Tom says it's more games.

I can confirm that we (Arcane Wonders) are bringing ito to English markets later this year!
Which one?
@@KMReviews the regular ito for now. Maybe rainbow in the future? Depends on how the first one does for us 🙂
@@blakwngbrd Awesome. As someone that loves Wavelength, this looks like a perfect small-box version that has just enough of a wrinkle to make having both in a collection a great idea! Feel like it could benefit from having a second sheet of prompts though!
Awesome! Is there somewhere to keep tabs on when that's going to happen? :D
Looks super fun, looking forward to it! 😉
Mom, Tom is Arcs-teasing again!
Dropolter is a game where people are like "ya I guess we can try that", then hours later they are insisting on just one more round.
And then you wrap up the game day by washing the components.
For the sake of efficiency I'm going to start storing all my board game components "loose". Who needs boxes anyway, let it all hang out on the shelf, exposed and free as nature intended.
Free range board gaming, no boxes, no confinement. Just meeples being free as some god intented them to be!
If I did that with my copy of Eldritch Horror + expansions, I'd be finding lost bits of that game for the next 60 years like the glitter I spilled in the second grade.
the sky team experience:
*looks at co-pilot with smile of pure horror. places a 6, while shaking head*
*co-pilot attempts to correct for the 6, looking back with a mix of confusion and frustration*
*continues smiling and shaking head. places another 6*
Glad to know I'm not the only one who very carefully arranges my shelfs not alphabetically or by genre, and not randomly, but by where the boxes best fit
Neither Gloomhaven nor Frosthaven play ball with Kallax whatsoever. They've basically got a cubby each (though Gloomhaven has a file organiser for the map tiles that lives with it). Both are just a little too big to really share space with any other full-sized board game box. You'd get little ones in with Gloomhaven (sans file organiser), but you'd struggle with all but the dinkiest of small box game alongside Frosthaven.
That feeling of dread/excitement you get when you go into a list video knowing ypu own NONE of the boxes in the thumbnail
Absolutely in no way a remixed "top five small box games" list video with a slapped on theme to justify it I can't see what could possibly have given anyone that impression.
"Probably... a Dice Tower review, maybe!" 😂
I loved his little giggle afterwards
Lovely little dig
What a burn, especially since Tom Vasel is on the record that he would save these guys in the apocalypse. 🤣
Watching you stuff unboxed components into the crevices of your shelves was simultaneously one of the most horrifying and most fantastic things I've seen in a video in a long time.
The loose storage of big top is triggering my anxiety
actively yelling 'what are you doing you madman' at the screen
It was so painful.
Relatable. My face melted like an Indiana Jones villain.
I hate it. Someone call the Society for the Prevenetion of Cruelty to Boars Games and delete Tom's BGG account
I'm preparing the tar and feathers.
Tom now outsourcing table shots to hand/arm model!
SMH. I would have expected more from my husband’s favorite CZcamsr. You detail out the gaps in the beginning so well, getting my hopes up for some OCD satisfying gap filling action. But then your video devolved into an actual game review. Where’s the before and afters of the box fittings? The zoomed out pictures of the perfectly filled gaps! The slow mo shots of boxes sliding in and out of perfectly fitting holes in your shelf?
Don’t even get me started on the tragedy that was your Spectral fitting!!
Expectation: that feeling of satisfaction when you eliminate four rows with a perfectly timed Tetris straight piece
Reality: chaos and frustration
or at least a before and after of the fridge 😅
You went into a Tom hosted SUSD video NOT expecting chaos??
Some of my favourite small box games: Armadöra, Bandido, The Builders (Middle Ages & Antiquity), Codex Naturalis, Codinca, Cross Clues, Deep Sea Adventure, Dungeon Mayhem (+Baldur's Gate Exp.), Hanabi, HIve Pocket, Jaipur, K3, Kivi, Linwood, LOTS, Martian Dice, Parade, Piou Piou, Qwirkle Travel Ed., Qwixx, Railroad Ink, Saboteur, Silver & Gold, Similo, Splendor Duel, Zombie Dice...
that arcs tease is mean
That Guile's Theme is a perfect ending track.
Omg it's Arcs
He flexing
Aaaaaaaarcs
Proper flex that!!!!
Love the gremlin look after “dice tower review” 19:55
"The kind of humor we're into isn't really wacky or winking to the camera. It skews somewhat dry and absurdist. Now excuse me while I take sip from this Omega Mart glass."
Deep Sea Adventure is definitely my favorite small box game. So much game in such a tiny box.
Dropolter is one of my most played and loved partygames! Great filler and so much fun, with cheers and laughing!
Highly recommended!
As if there were gaps in my kallax. I'll have to buy another kallax to have gaps to fill with these games!
SUSD *posts*
My bank account: "I'm tired boss"
Great review Tom! FYI on sky team. It's 0,1,2 spaces on the engine. Freaking great game :)
Small box games are always good... When they are...
Good!
Some little ones working well here and in holidays or hiking trips!
-Hive
-Crypts of sedlec
-The game
-Jekyll VS hide
(or VS Scotland yard)
-Alice's garden
-Jaipur
Cheers from belgium
Went straight out and bought Dro Polter. Looks great.
Can someone make a gif of the "moment your friend realizes you have a lot of board games" please?
Tom bringing a new twist of getting food in the board games that has made SUSD board game review mavericks- by putting games into his food holders
Perfect shelves fit! ✈ Thanks for choosing Scorpion Masqué Airlines ! 🦂
That Big Top shelf-placement. Bravo. Bravo.
With this sneak peak of your collection I'd love to see an update of it from the last 2 years one!
4:03 THAT WAS AN ACTION BUTTON REFERENCE OH MY GOD YES
Whose arms Tom? Whose arms? Amazing tattoos!
Guile's theme, if it goes with a board game review, then, you might just say...
... it goes with everything
10:55 SIXTEEN METRES BY TWENTY EIGHT METRES. That's a Big Top indeed.
Nonchalant showing his Arcs. I really like a video. Can't wait for the delivery.
NO
THE CUDDLE ROOM RETURNS
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
DEAR GOD I DIDNT NEED TO BE REMINDED.
You really gotta add Durian to the stack of cannonically good Oink games.
I want to love Sky Team so much. Yet I know I can't buy it because my wife has a paralyzing fear of flight, and only manages to fly if she is mentally holding the plane up in the sky the entire trip. This game would cripple that for her.
intro hits close to home XD
I, too, love the taste of Lao Gan Ma! 😂
Sky Team sounds really fun!
SUSD's overview got a few minor details wrong, but yeah, Sky Team is excellent. A great "couple's co-op", to put it one way.
Talking about Arcs when?
These seem really fun :D and certainly good gap-fillers xD thank you for sharing
Guile's theme is so good!
I wish all game reviews/summaries including box size and also approximate tabletop size (that you need to play, especially if there is a board). The latter should also be on the side of the box, along with player counts, age range and duration.
Amazing video!! Love the picks!!
Retry T-shirt!!!! Yay!!! ✌️😊❤️
Arcs on the shelf... Stop making people jealous! :D
Ito looks like a mixture of Wavelength and The Mind. Looking forward to the reprint
The only thing that I just learned is that I have been using my fridge wrong for years. I guess the game recommendations were helpful as well...
Use of the doom shotgun sound for sky team doomed attempts. Perfect.
TY for this! The family's been looking for some smaller, faster games to complement behemoths like Betrayal and Caverna.
Nice to see a new video from my fav Tom 😊
for 4:10 it's 0, 1 or 2 spaces, not 1, 2, 3
Oop! Got that wrong in the video, but we definitely played it correctly! I remember being TOO LATE one time! Nightmare.
The friend I play it with and I have the same problem. I say 0, 1, 2 removing the end of turn 1 space move cause it's inevitable. He says 1, 2, 3 cause it's inevitable
Every time you guys take a jab at the dice tower it kills me 🤣🤣
love the doom 1 shotgun sound effects
Love the finchy shirt. Too the fools
Michael.
Been waiting on my copy of spectral for a while! Still haven’t got it yet!
I'm currently in the process with my manufacturer of determining the size/shape of the box for my upcoming board game and watching you puzzle through fitting things on your shelves was a well timed treat! 😅🥰📦
Small box game? Pax Renaissance 1st ed.
Nice monstera funny man
I've been really wanting to try Ito for a while, and now I have to add Dro Polter to that list!
For people interested in Ito, I very highly recommend Eye My Favorite Things btw. It's the same idea as a trick taking game and is easily the best conversation starter I've ever played.
"Top 10" is a more streamlined version of ito from the sound of it. or more partyfied? Only have cards from 1 to 10, prompts are a bit longer and wordier, but it works perfectly. And its in stock. Here in germany at least.
I really appreciate the Omegamart Water glass.. Very good also sky team is great
I appreciate the Doom shotgun sounds :)
4:10 In Sky Team you don't move 1, 2 or 3 spaces but 0, 1 or 2. And you move on the approach track, not the altitude. Did you read the rules 😅
But, but, but... how does Through the Desert FIT IN THE KALLAX !!!???
Heresy! Where is Insider in the conically good oink games!?!?!
That Lords of Vegas briefcase. ❤You don't even need to talk about it. It will never fit in your Kallax. It will just sit there, saying "Take me down and start an mean, unseemly takeover war with your best friend."
I have no problem cannibalizing board game boxes to repackage games into tighter fitting boxes in order to maximize shelf space. I just cut the title off and glue it to the new box. It was painful at first. But now I’m looking at over 125 games on one shelf, and I’m pretty proud of that. And I still have space for more mwah ha ha ha. It just wouldnt be possible otherwise.
That Doom sound effect somehow got a chuckle every damned time
The "You lose" noise is the shotgun from Doom, right? I can't believe how burned into my conciousness that is!
Are we not going to talk about Shark & Bus just sitting their flexing your impeccable taste 💪😤🔥🚌🦈
Tom! Omega-Mart!?!? We got the same glass!
I hope you stood up to the corporation.
I love it and I love this video!❤🎉
I can appreciate a good Wilhelm scream
A trick to fit small games with lots of games in your Kallax is to insert individual cards between other boxes, they fill the gaps really nicely.
Great video
"It's not the second coming of Christ", hahahahaha you made me laugh.
Putting the cards in the refrigerator to set…next to something with pectin 😎
Bonus points for your delicious jar of Laoganma
Greeta’s chutney good choice sir!
And Bonne Maman! So much for the cost of living crisis.
I thought the Spectral shelfing was amazing until I hear "2 by 1 oinks". I almost woke up my kids because I laughed so hard
We have those exact jars in our fridge too. Though I'm struggling to utilise the chili crisp. Don't know what to use it for.
I love the Omega Mart glass. What a wonderful experience!
Loving those Doom SFX
Dro Polter sounds like a blast!
I think Avant Carde is my current favorite small box game. It just came out and I'm addicted! Think if uno was a deck builder.
People see me in my true little goblin form when they see the living room table half covered by the ongoing sleeping gods campaign.
your sample game is on point
How did you know I watch your videos while washing the dishes?! 😊
Nice Doom 95 shotgun sound byte.
I went to like a his video and it was already done. So 👍🏻
Ito sounds extremely similiar to Top ten but with more cards representing range. (which could be both good and bad I am a little split on that) Still it might be good alternative for people who are interested in it as it is hard to find.
Do I spy a Meow Wolf glass? Excite, I have one from LV that I covet!
Does anybody know where one can get the metal coins that are shown in the Big Top review? Thanks!
Matt would totally find 'big bum head' hilarious
yay! you have Pit!
I was looking forward to a satisfyingly well filled shelf by the end. Realized half way through I wouldn’t get it 😞
We need the Arcs!
