Hey I’m Megan! I play board games a lot so I decided to start recording just for the fun of it. I post solo play throughs, 2 player play throughs, how to play videos, and game recommendations. I cover all types of games including kids games.
If you’d like to see me play a particular game either solo or 2 player, be sure to let me know in the comment section of any video and if I have the game I’ll be sure to get that game to the table!

Foundations of Metropolis | 2p Playthrough
We're playing Foundations of Metropolis by Arcane Wonders, for 2-4 players. This game is a bit of an asterisk because I forgot to put a lot marker on one of my starting lots, which would have affected the game. As well as we skipped two turns at the end of year 2.

Spark Riders 3000 is my latest Kickstarter to arrive, and it's going to retail soon. It's a crisis management game like pandemic, but different theme and it requires an app. The app is really neat cuz it brings the theme more to life by talking to the app as if you're a crew member of the Spark spaceship. You roll dice to do your actions and then tell the app, Iris, what level you rolled and sh...
Dinosaur World | Solo Playthrough

Dinosaur world is a fun worker placement and tile placement game that feels just like the Jurassic World movie! The solo mode is a beat your own score kind of game but it also has objectives for you to complete. One thing about the solo mode that is different is that the dinosaurs in your park escape, just like in the movies. The solo mode was only part of the kickstarter version but you can pu...
Oh My Gourd! | Playthrough and Quick Review

Oh My Gourd! is a cute and simple kids game that can be used to teach about gardening and practice simple math addition. The backs of the turn order summary cards tells a little bit about the process of gardening and how to help them grow. Recommended for ages 6 and up because they need to be able to do simple addition, but younger can play with parents help. This is a great game for kids! And ...

I just found your channel this morning because I am learning Honey Buzz solo. Great teach, and now I'm going to watch your solo playthrough. There are only a couple solo playthroughs of base game Honey Buzz and I am happy to be watching yours! New Subscriber, Honeyladay
@@honeylady108 thank you for your kind words and thanks for subscribing!!😊
great video :) Looks like a good pickup for game nights
On Mars is an awesome game indeed. I play it solo as well and, like you, I forget the missions tracks regularly... If ever you have some Alexander Pfister games like Maracaibo or Great Western Trail, I will watch your videos for sure :) Greeatings from France !
@@1stephanesteph Hello! I don’t have those games but my local game store has Great Western Trail and a few other Alexander Pfister games to rent so I could definitely get that to the table :)
Good video! Wasn’t sure I was playing it correctly because I felt I was scoring too high. You’re very good at playing through videos
@@michellecioppa9152 thank you for your kind words!
Thanks. Needed to see it played through. I thought the instructions could have used a few more examples of play situations. I’m playing the revised version which changes the solo rules a bit. Wondering how you knew they had purple? In revised, the AI could be one of two colors but you can flip it over after the 4th round.
You’re welcome. Sorry the instructions weren’t as clear as they could be. I knew they were purple because it was the last color left. I’ll have to read up on the solo rules for the revised edition, I’m curious to know how it differs. Sounds like the solo might be harder in the revised edition
@@meganlove5681 Sorry for the misunderstanding! Your directions and video were great. I was referring to the instructions with the game. Your play through was excellent!!!!
Interesting game, thanks for the playthrough, very relaxing 🙂
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
I really enjoyed your video, it was excellent! I'm a bit of a space geek, so not surprisingly I've got quite a few "serious" games based around space exploration in my little collection. The snag is, quite a few of the guys I play games with, are not interested in the theme, not in the least! They will play some of the space games I have, but you can tell, they're doing it just to keep my happy, and if given the choice, they would rather be having teeth pulled at the dentist! But this game's different! It's light hearted enough to keep them entertained, and the few space nerds in my group also like it as fun and light hearted and can't be taken too seriously. Another space game I highly recommend for everyone, is MLEM: Space Agency. If you don't already have it, and get the chance to purchase it, I highly recommend it.
I think you made an illegal move at around 9 minutes. You chose the gain tech tile action which allowed you to then grab a resource but you then went and grabbed another tech tile afterwards 😊
@@shrimpersfan100 you are right. I should have sent a worker to my working area to get a second tech tile. Must have forgotten.
No worries. I enjoyed the video anyway 😊
Thanks! I've always been interested in this one
You’re welcome! This game sure is a good one!
Wow, yesterday I stopped at a game store at lunchtime on a long drive home and took a good long look at this game on their shelf because I'd never heard of it. It must have been within a few minutes of this video being posted.
What a crazy coincidence
Nice video! How often do you upload?
Thank you! I try to upload 2 times a week, but sometimes life gets busy. Editing my next video now :) Out of curiosity, what types of games would you like to see?
@@meganlove5681Noice, well I like playing deck builders, dice games or dungeon crawlers but I think the games you like playing would be okay to watch because you would enjoy it more. And maybe I'll learn about a new game 🤷🏻♂️
Great video!!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the info I was really wanting to see this played out.
Great playthrough! What a score! Thanks! Love this game too!
Love your video! Good job. Could you tell me how big is the meeple in this game? Jus out of curious because it looks very small compare to standard size meeple in Carcassonne
Thank you! They are pretty small. I’ve never played carcassonne so I can’t compare, but they are probably less than an inch
Both of you have made exceptional selections that I believe are essential additions to any collection. Megan, your picks of Everdell, Wonderlands War, Canopy, and Dinosaur Tea Party are not only solid choices but also beautiful, uniquely exciting, and fun. Cheri, your selections are equally impressive with Quacks of Quedlinburg, Ark Nova, Oceanos, and Century! Each game chosen by both of you promises a game night filled with smiles, laughter, cherished memories, and moments that will be treasured for a lifetime. You are both winners and I thank you both for sharing another wonderful video.
Thank you for your kind comment!!
Superb explanation of the game!
An amazing content for an amazing game ! ❤
Thanks for the video. As a fan of the original, and a dad with an 8 year old, I'm excited for this one. I almost got it Halloween 2023, but I'm waiting for the price to drop. The production is really evocative and nice for Halloween-lovers. Take Care!
Thank you for introducing me to this game. As an avid baker, It's a must-have for my game collection.
Glad I could introduce you to a great game!😊
Thank you so much for this great tutorial! I've had this game on my shelf for quite some time and just have not dedicated the time to go through the rules. This has been very helpful 😊
Glad I could help! 😊 Hope you get the game to your table soon, it’s definitely a fun one!
Good list, but dull vid. Pick it up, that's all, more pep.
Thanks for the tip! This is our first video of this type and I was a bit nervous to be in front of the camera
Thank you for sharing your top ten list from 2023 and introducing me to Pie Town and The Quacks of Quedlinburg. I will definitely be giving them a playthrough. If you have not yet played Honey Buzz by Elf Creek Games, I highly recommend it as it is both enjoyable and features stunning artwork.
Thanks for watching! We have played honey buzz, it’s a great game! Definitely stunning artwork! There were so many good games we played, it was so hard to pick only 10
Nice list!
I think you guys have really great tastes in games. I know it takes longer but maybe make a script of what you’re going to say. I very much agree about Quacks and Ticket to Ride and want to look at the others you’ve listed. Thank you for your video!
Thanks for the tip! And thanks for watching!😊

Thanks so much for subscribing!
this is really interesting, i never knew alexa could do this.
Yeah it's pretty cool! She can play this one and Europe!
A nice mix of games.
Thank you for sharing! It's always fun and interesting to see other's opinions of games! If I might give some suggestions for future videos, maybe add a very soft background music, and maybe try to cut out some of the more silent parts, and add chapters in the video of when the different listings show up. Otherwise great video! I see a lot of potential!
Thanks for the tips! I'll keep that in mind
Thanks for this! I've been very curious about how it plays solo. 🌟
Thank you. You explained this very well.
Thanks, Megan! Super clear and helpful.
This was the best ET board game tutorial I found. I noticed you are a newer channel. Looking forward to more great videos from you!
Thank you! I feel like some games I explain better and others not so much. But I try to make it as clear as possible. Thank you for subscribing!
great tutorial, now i can finally teach this to my group, thank you!
You’re welcome! 😊 I’d be curious to know how your group enjoys the game!
Thanks for uploading this. Going to try this when I get home and play along
Oh awesome! Let me know how you like the game after you play!
