I've only played a couple of these, with Empires End one I really want to try. Right after you mentioned Archaeology, I thought of Trambahn possibly making the list for a very similar mechanism. I love that tension in Trambahn of timing your engine purchases right before the draw deck runs out to avoid losing half of your money resource. Great list, and good luck with your game launch!
As a general rule, I don't seek out punishment to gain game play satisfaction :) I am unfamiliar with most on that list - Archaeology Expedition and Empire's End being the exceptions. Of the games I play, Azul comes to mind. Before each tile refresh, players often 'play chicken' by dumping more tile rubbish into the centre in the hope that an opponent will get stuck with a bucket load of negative points.
That's funny, while I was looking the video I wonder will he talk about In the year... I was ready to suggest it, and bim!! No way to get back when you made the bad choices, and one of my favorite too. Thank's
You totally missed Robin Crusoe (aka “we died again”)

love your channel 😊
Nice list. Have you ever played the board game: "This War of Mine"?
I haven't. I was always concerned it would be too story driven for me. I am aware of its reputation of being brutal though
Excellent selection. One game I played ended on the first night because of bad luck.
@@prufrock1977 It is indeed a brutal, unforgiving game, which is exactly the type of game it should be given the subject matter.
@@davidk6269 it is one of my favorites. I have both video and board games
If you can, try Antiquity (even with just 2 players). Man, talking about a punishing game ;). Brilliant one though!
The Grizzled is no joke. That game absolutely mocks me on nearly every play through. I keep coming back for more, though.
Agricola would be on many peoples list too, probably why you dont play it too!

I didn't detect a single Sierra Madre (Phil Eklund) design. 🤔 Pax Porfiriana, Greenland, High Frontier, Bios Genesis.

Wow, no mention of Ghost Stories or Robinson Crusoe?
Haven't played either unfortunately:)
Witch of Salem and Assault on Doomrock.
I enjoy Year of the Dragon. 😊
No Salton Sea?
Haven't tried it yet
Interesting that frostpunk, robinson crusoe and ghost stories are not on the list ;)
I've not played either
