วีดีโอ

You're going to Essen! Lucky you, have lots of fun. I hope you do a big update on everything you see there.

I've never really looked at this game before, I dismissed it but I'm not sure why. Thanks for highlighting this new version.

Great video !!!

Thanks for the review guys !!!

This game is so good, but you what game is better? The original! You should find a way to try it if you enjoy this one. It is tougher and tighter, but much more satisfying to play. Marco Polo II is fun, but feels looser, more generous, and almost sandboxy comparatively. And, oh yeah, Newton is brilliant fun!

@tcp1623 for 38 minutter siden (redigeret) I too think that the rule book looks really nice - however, I don´t think the majority shares our appreciation for medieval art - they might even find it boring looking. As a publisher I too would go with the more color full front cover. Aside from that - what a fantastic dragon meeple. Maybe the best I have ever seen - only rivaled by the one in Settlement. (Vast also has a dragon). English rules can be found on BGG.

Thanks for the great review. You are missing out not playing La Granja! The fun factor is high. I used to own the original, it's amazing, but last year upgraded to the Deluxe Master Set and it is sublime. Double the multi-use cards! Plus 12 modules to mix and match. A lot of great gaming in that box. Not to be missed if you like El Burro as much as you seem to.

I have the same thoughts on Tzolkin! It didnt work for me, too restrictive. You two were so fun to watch! Definitely want to check this out because i want a tzolkin-type game thats more forgiving. I also love that this can play 5! My group has 4/5 so that was a surprise seeing the player count.

"Hey, thank you so much for the review! We loved everything-the explanation of the rules, the interesting comments, and of course, the cat! Cheers and thanks again!"

I really appreciate the support of Elena and Fotios with this project. It's also unthinkable that we got in touch and that I sent my board game not only from Chile, but from Puerto Montt, which is a very southern city in Chile. I really appreciate all the work you did and I hope that in some way you enjoyed it as much as I did. I send you both a big hug ☺️

Thanks for the review, we don't tend to play head to head games like this. My wife doesn't like them even though she'd kick my butt at them every time. Always interesting to see a review of a game from a smaller/different publisher.

Fyfe is one of my favorite. everyone like it.

I want it but hard to find !

Hi Fotios & Elena, I am happy to report that I own exactly NONE of these games. 😊 In fact, I believe I have never even played any of them. I love that you do content like this. Too many content creators are overtly positive about everything. There are several channels that I used to watch regularly because of their honest opinions that I rarely watch because they do so many previews and KS or other sponsored content that make them not worth the time. I know they need to make income, but this stuff has taken over their channels and has bled over into their other content. You both are still genuine and honest. Plus, entertaining as always. Keep up the great work!

Excellent review, will check your channel from now!

Is this the smallest legacy game ever? Thanks for highlighting this one.

7 wonders was probably the first board game I played beyond monopoly or cluedo! I'm working my way through your playthrough series and it's great <3

Thank you for the video and the cool list of interesting games! I know almost all the games you talked about, but I don't have any of them in my collection... Somehow, we don't play abstract games. From that genre, I only have Callisto, but I've never played it. However, I must admit that Hive looks interesting! PS Fotios, are you by any chance a fan of Pink Floyd? They are one of my favorite bands of all time! And I have to brag a little - a few years ago, I played a concert with David Gilmour in Wroclaw...

Great vid. Am learning this at the moment and the play through really helped. Thanks. Keep up the great work 👍

Have you tried Orion's duel Not enough love given to this game

Im not very fun of abstract games but except chess which im a huge fun and i play a lot everyday i also like: Rosenkonig (i have already mentioned it in another video of yours) a super 2 player only abstract game. From your list i like Azul as everyone else i suppose, the other ones are ok but i would never consider them top. Honarable mention: kahuna P.S: Peter from boardgamegreeks

Nice list. I like the quickness and simplicity of abstract games. Photosynthesis is in my top-play list. Folios, I challenge you to a backgammon match anytime.

Azul with spanish tiles?! unsubscribe! No, but seriously, don't ever make that mistake again. Azul is based on portuguese tiles, that are mostly "azul" = "blue". That's also the idea for the design of Vital Lacerda's Lisboa, for example.

My number one is azul. I also like akropolis,cascadia, Sagrada, war chests.

Cypress Hill represent! 👊🏼

If you like 2-player abstract games, you might like Homeworlds. It takes a little while to get used to the rules, but after a few games, you get better at it, like Chess.

Another great video with new ideas to purchase as well. I like abstract games. Easy to learn and fast in setup. Thank you.

Love Azul and Hive! Great list

I really.. really! Don't like abstract games.

Thank you for another great review! As you know, I really enjoy watching and listening to you. I was considering Pampero while the Kickstarter campaign was still running. Somehow, I held off, and now I see that the game is getting very mixed reviews. Your impressions after playing and your opinion will certainly be very valuable for those still deciding whether to buy the game. For now, I’m considering Distilled, as the pre-order just launched here. Warm regards! By the way, I noticed the beautiful airplane on the shelf behind you... Flying has always been one of my unfulfilled dreams-some time ago, I actually started flying gliders, but I couldn’t finish the course due to lack of time.

First time watching your reviews. Subscribed! You both have very interesting insights…

Excellent review.

if this game's box is bigger than vital lacerda games OMG! i dont event want to try vital lacerda games not only that it is complex for the sake of being complex and a huge (no pun) problem when it comes to storage but bcuz the reason is just the big box alone. i think the only game that i enjoyed with a big box is Millenium Blades or maybe Kemet 1st edition. if the box is this big i want it to be strictly medium weight complexity and 2 - 3 hours long. and these designers who purposely chop their game to sell it as expansion should be in jail 😠😂its frustrating, just give me the whole game in one box! thanks for the video review btw :)

I like your videos guys, greetings from Greece!

I bought a couple of Lacerda games, and they are pretty good, but I don't usually want to cover the whole table with the board, or spend $150. I've had just as much fun with games at half the size and price (Newton, most recently).

The game is actually pronounced sausage. It’s just spelled differently.

In your comments you wrote “In this video, we review Ezra and Nehemiah”. I thought the video was about Pampero by Julián Pombo 😮

I know that Pampero is designed by Julián Pombo, but this game makes me think of CO2 and Vital Lacerda. I love several of Vital Lacerda’s games, but I don’t like their price. I am really happy of his collaboration with João Quintela Martins to offer smaller and streamlined version of his games for a smaller price, but with the same great themes and great mechanics 😊

Thank you for your honest review of this game. I've bought it including the two expansion. I agree about the box size (and the price) could be a lot smaller. Maybe Julian Pombo and the publisher should consider a light version (like Mercado de Lisboa compared to Lisboa or Bot factory compared to Kanban EV and House of Fado compared to The Gallerist). The art by Ian O'Toole is (as always) fantastic. It's a big selling point for this game.

Hello friends! Unfortunately, the game is no longer available here... Both the first and second parts. It’s a pity because I had it on my radar before, and it was probably the lack of a solo mode that stopped me from buying it. Now I kind of regret it, as I generally like dice-based games... But thanks to you, we’re playing a lot of The White Castle now :)

Great video. And I'm glad you enjoyed Habits :)

I had Transatlantic which I enjoyed but even more so when you use Mac Gertz own variant that's on bgg which is the version he wanted to publish but was overuled by the publisher. They streamline and smooth out the whole game. Definitely worth looking at if you've still got the game. I've never played Concordia but on my wishlist. I sold Transatlantic and picked up Crossing Oceans his follow up game. Thanks for an interesting video with great arguments. You should try Hamburgum by the same designer great rondelle game.

I love a nap. I also love La Granja but have not played El Burro yet. I'm not sure I need them both although the production on El Burro looked amazing. Thanks for another great video.

I had an idea for another game to recommend. Rajas of the Ganges by Inka & Markus Brand. Another lovely dice placement game that has so much to do and looks lovely on the table.

I've got the first game, debating whether this one is different enough. Thanks for another fun video.

Great conversation, greetings from Canada. Looking forward to next month's one. I have and played Marco Polo 1 and agree its great. Thanks for the other recommendations. Gotta get my Marco Polo II to the table soon then!

Thanks for the informative review!!

Thanks for the playthrough. You make the playthroughs very watchable and enjoyable. Looking forward to playing this on Sunday.

My version has English in the instructions in the box 😃 Another difference which i find a little annoying is Pyramids doesn't have a round tracker card.
