Great video. Ready for game night. Здорово Илюша

Actually it's a tie if I'm not mistaken. Tyler gave 25 points to Ilya for 4 schools instead of 24. Great video!

Salamander/frog/lizard-span... Anyway, looking forward to the Finspan expansions with more water creatures... Totally agree with your opinions about the educational aspects! Wingspan and Finspan are documenting the beauty of the animal world on earth... Playing and learning together 😎

So cute!!

I don’t know how I didn’t know about you guys until today. Totally hooked now.

I’d like to see an insect-span. Butterflies, dragonflies, damselflies, beetles, etc.

Most likely to end a friendship! Too true for Perch! Love it!

Great overview and review! Very thorough overview, used it as a rules tutorial basically.

Is this just wingspan but with fish? Or does it add anything more to the game like wrymspan did?

Depends on the category but one of my favorites is the Pacific Spiney Lumpsucker

0:05 they love more things than playing boardgames together - that's for sure!

One of my favorites is the spinner shark. If you want to see a beautiful aerial display, check out a video of these sharks flying through the air!

haft to say this does not look good at all. but hopefully there next game will makeup for it.

Monsterspan! 😂

Question of the day: What would you like the next "SPAN" game to be?

Question of the day: What is your favorite fish?

Question of the day: If you were to dive anywhere in the world, where would it be?

It was so fun playing with you both at Pax U!

I preordered it and didn't get the promo. Wondering if it is worth it to buy it and sell a copy just to get the promo.

I still don't understand the last scoring phase, 1,2,3 ... whatever

Im in love with this game!!

Great playthrough thank you ! The game seems great, not sure I will be getting it but it is definitely being considered .

Are all those shelves in your collection??!! 😲

There are so many to get done or try out i haven't been able to get to... some hopefully soon like Darwin's Journey, Unconscious Mind, Townsfolk Tussle.... also Civolution, Endeavor Deep Sea, Speakeasy as big ones. I played Barrage a while ago and love it but didn't add it to the collection because I'm not sure of that for primarily solo. However, if you're at GAMA, let's get a game in (I can even TRY to learn it enough to teach if it happens to be around but doubtful, I'm sure, haha).

Played and own all 5!

Solstis is SO good!

CELEBRATION OF SUCCESS for playing Stonespire Architects! My must-play this year is definitely from the "shelf of shame" because it was one of the first few games I ever bought (June 2022) and is still in the shrink: Dinosaur Island.

I hope to get Scarface 1920 played in 2025, I've had it for almost a year and not learned it yet ! Barrage is great, I wish we lived close so I could teach it to you !!! I do think it plays better with more than 2p but we play exclusively at 2 and I would much rather play it at 2 than not at all. I got the Duel map this year which is much tighter and greatly improves the 2p experience, check it out if you plan to play it at 2 as well !

Sankoré is fantastic! I would teach it to you, but we'd have to set up both our copies and then FaceTime since I'm in Helsinki. If you're up for that then so am I because I love teaching games to people. Games that haven't been played in my collection? I'd say that they are mostly expansions, but the worst one must be the expansion to On Mars. It's such a heavy game as it is, so before I play that I have to relearn On Mars and get others to play it enough before I can introduce the modules of the expansion.

I learned how to play Stonespire Architects on Board Game Arena. Barrage is on there, too, but I didn't figure that one out there with my one play, but I also didn't try the tutorial, ha. Pax Pamir is on BGA as well, and I think it plays okay at 2, but more players is usually more fun with area control and negotiation.

Never heard of any of these except photograph which is a great game and only takes about 20-40 mins to play you will enjoy it alot and catan which i just wont play after the first and only time i played it its beyond boring but thanks for a list that i have never seen, one of the reason i love you guys is you all show lots of different games not just the ones everyone knows :)

Oooo! Prodigal's Club is on our list to play soon too! Have you played Last Will? I love that one!

Sankoré is excellent, beautiful, and shorter than you think it is. I played it with 3 other people who never played it before and we finished in 1h45 mins (after explanation/setup). I strongly recommend it, very interactive, and everything interconnected but not overwhelming. Right now I'd say my top priority would be play Skymines or Evacuation, I played them only once and need to better absorb the rules/see if I really like them.

My top must play game from my unplayed games is My Father's Work. I've made several attempts to get it played this year, but other things got in the way. The next 4 in my top 5, in no particular order, probably Flamecraft, Disney Animated, Ave Roma, Pulsar 2849, and First Rat. First Rat is the newest in my collection and Pulsar is the oldest in this list.

I always called it stonespire architects. Why did they change it lol. I bought Delta a while ago. It looks beautiful, but it sits on the shelf. I will bring that to the table this year.

“It smells eco friendly “ lol sounds like something you’d say if someone farted!

I have faith in you both. Looking forward to the dance party. I'm excited to get Sidereal Confluence off my Shelf of Opportunity on my birthday next month. I'm hosting a game day where that game is the main event.

Stonespine is so good. And it's on BGA if you play there at all. As for must play list: I need to get Blueprints of Mad King Ludwig and Comic Hunters to the table.

I pick up a lot of games very late. So I have a lot of games that are old, but relatively new to me. A couple of the ones I have been wanting to play are Great Western Trail and Concordia. Fortunately, we will be having a local con in Feb so I am signed up to play them there. But besides those, I want to play Concordia with the Solitaria expansion, Black Sonata, Iberia, and Terra Mystica with the solo expansion. That is it. I want to keep my list short so I can focus on them and hopefully successful in getting them played this year.

If Tyler had wavy hair, he would look exactly like the central character on the cover of the Prodigal Club game box. A true gentleman. 💕😁

Having more how-to-plays on youtube is greatly appreciated! I played 84 new-to-me games this year. I'll give my best art award to faraway - I love all the lil' fellas!

Looking forward to the dance party 🥳😅

I've played Sankore so far only once at two. It's very crunchy, but I think it worked well enough at two. Can't speak to a larger player count yet, but hopefully I'll get it to a larger table soon. I also got it because of Merv and that's a game that I think is really great. It's much lighter than Sankore and can be played in like an hour, and works at two really well with a dummy player that adds a level of strategy since one of the players, depending on where they are in turn order, gets to control where the dummy goes and can be used to block. I think I need to play Dungeon Lords, since that's on my shelf of shame, getting it for xmas of '23 and it's already an older game, but it's one I've heard only really works at 4. I also really want to find a copy of Civolution to play since that keeps getting rave reviews.

Congrats on Stonespire! You've already played one (of the 10 I think you'll play in 2025)! Btw, I think in The Prodigals Club you're trying to offend "cultured society" and lose all your money, not acquire things. That's what makes the game interesting to me. Long overdue to be played by me are several games: Pax Pamir, Tang Garden, Planet Unknown, Septima, Nightmare Cathedral, Lorenzo Il Magnifico...

I just played Pax Pamir 2E for the first time in December. I absolutely loved it with my 4 player game. Root isn’t in my top 100 just an FYI. Makes your brain kind of feel the same but very different games.

The #1 game that I must get played in 2025 is Cosmic Encounter. I don't know how I still haven't played this, but this is the year!

QOTD: Castle Panic, Spirit Island, The forbidden series. We just got this game and unsettled: constellation I am excited to get into.

Thanks for the video! Looks like a fun time was had. :) · Some years ago (think around your Roll-and-Write month), the only Saashi games I was familiar with was the flip-and-write Let's Make A Bus Route and its roll-and-write Dice Game. (The former was soonafter reimplemented to the Get on Board games and was published stateside.) The Dice Game is interesting as it plays 1-2 players. Intrigued to know how it fairs in your revisit of roll-and-writes or 2-player-only games. :) · So glad you got a copy of Can't Stop, the fold-out version I've been hearing about. Perfect for travel. :D · Also interested in more thoughts on Souvenirs from Venice, Solstis, Flatiron, and The Fellowship of the Ring: Trick-Taking Game.

That was a great video.....short and sweet. At my age now I learn more from watching than some of the 'difficult' rule books......lol. I have loved board games for 60 years and most of it solo now, and I love watching people like yourselves getting excited about this, our beautiful art. Great work, well done, and thank you.

Where is the best places to purchase board games?
