      @@aorakis5795 I only have around 20 games, so that's not my problem. My problem is that I can't get four or five people together at one time for anything where I live. I do see a lot of gamers on youtube with shelves full of games and I don't understand that at all. I saw a guy on Reddit say he kickstarted over 75 games. 75! That's just the ones he backed on kickstarter, too! That's crazy.

  • @burgek1
    @burgek1 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    From that list; Spirit Island would be my go to. Playing "true solo" (1 spirit) is ok but the joy is playing two different spirits to co-operatively destroy the invaders. The different combinations of spirits make the game so incredibly replayable as each combo plays so differently.

    • @SanderPastoor
      @SanderPastoor 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yes! If you want to try Final Girl, definitely get Camp Happy Trails. It's the only set without extra rules for the location or killer, so you just get to play with the core Final Girl rules. It's also still a challenging experience, but with the least amount of extra rules overhead. I highly recommend it.

  • @kalilak9701
    @kalilak9701 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I’ve really enjoyed playing Cascadia both multiplayer and solo. Especially since it has a suggested difficulty roadmap in the game booklet so you always have a next, more difficult challenge to work towards.
    It’s easy to learn and plays pretty quickly (depending on how long the other players take) and (best of all for my ADHD brain) it is almost entirely a tactical game (you can’t really plan too far ahead since your options for adding tiles are generally completely different by the time your turn comes back around), and everything is completely open for everyone to see (so no worries if you have a very limited working memory like me). ^^b
    Also, even though it is a competitive game, it’s not really one that encourages sabotage, and it’s usually almost impossible to tell who’s winning until the very end, so everyone still tends to like each other even after a difficult game. ;;>.

    I’ve been enjoying Arkham Horror LCG. Yes, it is a bit of a money sink, but I have yet to find a more satisfying game experience

    • @GuardianAngelEatos
      @GuardianAngelEatos 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you like Arkham Horror, you might like the Lord of the Rings Lcg also made by Fantasy Flight Games. It has a lot of the same mechanics but gives a very different experience. I personally much prefer the Lord of the Rings Lcg over Arkham Horror. Too much is determined by the chaos bag and it sucks investing cards into boosting your stat for a skill check only to get an automatic lose or just enough that you fail the test, or you invest a lot to make sure you pass unless you get an automatic fail and you get a +0 or +1. As for being a money sink, yes it is, but you also get a lot of content. It's a money sink because there's a lot more content. You can buy a bunch of different games or buy a bunch of one game such as Arkham Horror. It's the same either way except you have less games you have to learn and rules to remember for different games but you have less variety. But if you have a big collection, the less variety is not a problem.

    I wouldn't go anywhere near Spirit Island or Mythwind if you want them for solo play, they are very much meant as multiplayer games but have a solo variant added in but not really the way it should be played to get a good experience. Hundreds of other solo games I would put before these two. Witchcraft and Final Girl are good choices.

      @Apeshower 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I do disagree on this. I think it’s great solo. It is however long and 90-120mins for me would be a dream. Can easily go 180 mins playing two handed solo so if you are doing this perhaps give some time. Takes some playing and familiarity to get that time down much. Still excellent though

    Have you played a game called Aeon's End? I usually don't have a strong opinion on how good a game is, but it's got to be hands down the best card game I've ever played! Best, not favorite. It's so unique and does so many things right that makes it easier for players and give a better experience, it has tons of options to make the game harder or easier and change how you play the game which adds a ton of replay value!
    Where can I find Witchcraft? That one sounds interesting! It's not in stock in the usual places I get my games, and Amazon doesn't even appear to have it on the website.

    -Final girl : I haven't found it quite balanced or "even" at all! You will die a lot more than survive this game with those dice rolls :D (which is thematically good) (but after experiencing a 15 blanks rolls in a row... I had to get rid of it :D )
    -Mage knight : when too much is too much (rules and micro rules to get funny anymore) (for my brain anyway:p)
    -spirit island : if you like the game, and get slowly annoyed by it, grab the branch and claws expansion!
    -witchcraft : I much prefer resistance theme and graphics. (but I'm just boy i guess :D)

    I watch content from many boardgame and RPG channels and enjoy their content a lot, but never have I seen a channel this obviously biased - towards money. Things already appeared very fishy with some games in past months, but don't tell me you weren't paid a handsome amount of money for putting Mythwind in the No. 1 spot during their Kickstarter. At least be open about it! This is not how other reviewers, paid or unpaid, operate. Not a single one I'm aware of. This is disgusting.
