Thanks dude!

Thanks Fotios, looking forward to seeing more on your game!

I have had Master of economy on my buy list for like 5 years. It looks 👌 , just difficult finding copies. Home Port is another one I've been after. I do like the shipping theme, Container and Panamax being a few of my favs.

@@economicboardgames I've had my copy a few years but got so many i haven't had chance to check out. I've been after Container for years too,hoping the price will come down a bit but probably won't. Got Panamax after biding my time.Haven't heard of Home Port,i will check it out,thanks.

Haha appreciate it! My june edition will release Wednesday, so more economic goodness for you!

Hey, that's great news! Glad to finally see this one hitting retail availability. When it comes to end of round valuations, we found it really useful to draw a grid with 1-7 columns and the order of priority on rows eg number of cards matching etc, and a few matching colour tokens to help keep track of which company is leading on the grid. Enjoy!

Ye it was a pleasure, thanks for showcasing the game to us! I hope you guys had a great expo

Thanks for sharing, that's some really useful insight.

Thanks, ye I had a blast. I hope Windmill valley goes global, it is a lot of fun!

It's rather discretionary but the board game geek I feel has the best summary of an economic game "Economic games encourage players to manage a system of production, distribution, trade, and/or consumption of goods. The games usually simulate a market in some way."

Hey, sorry to hear you couldn't make it, hopefully next time! Ye Earth Rising has a more educational look. I managed a full play of Windmill Valley last night , it was great, the mechanisms and combos offered really shine for me.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I've got Salton sea on my shelf waiting to learn, once I get through the UKGE convention and Nucleum Australia expansion, it will be next up!

Thanks for sharing! Great to hear you've managed to preorder it. I was completely unaware of the interview, but that makes a lot of sense now with it's inspiration.

Oh wow! Where did you preorder the game from?

I've had my eye on Mr President, it looks super. Might just be a bit complex for what I typically go for in a solo game. Thanks for suggesting though!

Yeah I feel the same about the selection of games. I've since found out that Hegemonic Project Games may have some preview stuff on World Order 🤞

My favourite economic game is Imperial 2030 but if I was to suggest a game as a step up from monopoly, I would go with Charge Large and then try some of these excellent games like Aquire, Cape May and Chinatown which have similar feel to get you going, enjoy!

@@economicboardgames thanks for the suggestions. Have you ever tried Noble House or Tai-Pan? These are very old financial games based on Clavell's books.

@@trondsi I've not tried either but they both sound interesting especially Noble House. You may enjoy Indonesia or Navegador if you like Tai-Pan. Thanks for the suggestions

@@economicboardgames thanks for all the suggestions! We played around with Tai-Pan a bit and it can certainly be fun. I never played Noble House, but I have heard that it can be good if you make up some house rules (the published rules are sketchy I think).

Thanks for the spot

It's a very clever game, creates a great dynamic between players. Shame it looks dated but still worth it

Thanks guys, expansion video coming soon with solo option, really elevates the game!

Been out of print for a while, unless you can get an import of the Korean version. Keeping an eye out for copies on Board game geek market is probably your best chance. Good luck 🤞

Yeah lots of interesting games featured this month and Power Grid Stock companies was absolutely my highlight. Hopefully bump into you at expo, say hi, I'll most likely be in a yellow top with my factory logo on front, can't wait!

I was pleasantly surprised by this game, Viticulture with expansions is hard to beat though! Such a great game.

@@economicboardgames Quite nice with Tuscany and the visitors (?) deck, I agree

Hey, checkout my videos on, Top 10 business games and top 10 economic games for new gamers, enjoy!

Very tough question! I love all of them but Acquire wins by a smidge. It is just a little bit smoother and approachable with a group, with varying player counts not adding to much length to the game. But I do enjoy the more accessible sell ability in Shark! Hab & Gut is an awesome game, nice to see it back in print. Let us know how you get on with it

Blimey, where to begin. Most of them represent opportunity cost like nearly all games. Prosperity best represents a scaled down economy. Happy pigs good representation of the factors of production and potentially economies of scale on some occasions. Hab & Gut is all about price fluctuations with demand/supply. You start to see more economic principles showcased in heavier games though, micro /macro, comparative advantage, elasticity, market forces and so on. Something like Indonesia, Container and loads more. Bit of a lengthy topic for comments section lol

I have tried the one with the map and the one in this video, but yet to try the version with the Shark territory that is central. It would be nice if the new Korean version was more widely available. Such a great game either way

Very tough question! We have to bring in Shark to the discussion as well, if we're talking Acquire and Big Boss. I love all of them but Acquire wins by a smidge. It is just a little bit smoother and approachable with a group, with varying player counts not adding to much length to the game. How about you? Which is your preferred

​@economicboardgames havent played any yet hence i refer to your judgement. 😊 all three (shark too) are available locally here in asia, so will pick one up to try. thank you 🙏

@@ianw0ng Your in for a treat whichever one you try, enjoy!

​@@economicboardgames great to know. thank you. 👍😊

I feel that there is no rondel mechanism in this game. Circularity and directions don't really matter in Caravanserai. In essence, we find an action selection linked to movement at the heart of the operation.

Hey, thanks so much. Here is the link to those beautiful FCM components, enjoy! boardgamegeek.com/image/8060663/food-chain-magnate

Thank you, I really appreciate your kind words my fellow economic gamer!

I have a video 'Top 10 Economic Board Games for new gamers' which will feature a lot of games matching your criteria. Vegetable stock and Happy Pigs being two great choices. The 1979 version of ' Manager' is also a cracking game if you can find a copy. I am contactable at economicboadgames@hotmail.com for further enquiries, enjoy!

No worries thanks for sharing, hopefully you get to play it soon. Hopefully be out retail end of the year I would say

I think he's focusing only on games that were released in 2023

Yep top 10 2023 for now,but FCM would absolutely make my top 10 of all time!

Wow thats a great deal for a great game, enjoy!

@@economicboardgames yes it did not last long at all. The deal was gone within half a day. Thank you. Def looking forward to trying it ☺️

Thank you, that's much appreciated

Thanks for watching and the feedback
