I really had a huge urge to take the video and add a layer of commentary as it went along…
I feel like Mike had the better shelf, despite Nick having some individual solid games and Mike adding Ark Nova almost killed it for me 😉
I’m down for doing this challenge though… oh boy!
touch choice, but I'm going with Nick's. A couple of higher hits on Mike's but more games overall I enjoy on Nicks
Genuine draw for me. I loved this drafting format!
Nick Took the Win for me. Mike has solid games!
Mike takes it with Ark Nova, High Society.
This is maybe one of the most creative board game videos I have seen from the hobby in a long time.
Ayyyyye that’s awesome to hear!
Agreed! This was fantastic
Man, part of my favorite thing about this is how SERIOUS this hypothetical situation is🤣 love it!
THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS!
Oh we were fully in on the premise! My heart was breaking thinking I’d lost certain games
Thank you for always pushing the boundaries of what Board Game content can be. From “in a week” challenges, thrift shop finds, satirical news, your contributions to This Game is Broken, and now this, you all come up with the most innovative and fun content around. I really like how this highlights some smaller format games that don’t always get much attention.
In the end, I’m going to vote for Mike with Viscounts, Wingspan, Cascadia, High Society, and Silver & Gold.
Thanks so much for the kind words. We always want to be amongst folks pushing the form forward and we always love seeing folks respond positively to our silliness!
@@TheBrothersMurph this ain’t silliness…this is genius! You may have created your next series…the “_______ collection in one kalax”
@@grahamglaser 🤯 snacks, gadgets, movies. Endless possibilities
@@bWOOOPdeWooop I feel like this needs to be titled “what’s in the shelf” with the “what’s in the box” clip from Seven dubbed over as the intro - and short enough not result in a copyright violation!
London and Ark Nova in Mike’s cube make it tough but with CoB, Clans of Caledonia, and Viticulture, I give the edge here to Nick.
Y'all need to get some Button Shy games up in there for this challenge!
It's a tough pick because I think you both did really well, but I'm giving this one to Mike 👍
My question to you is: if you could steal one game from the other's picks what would it be?
I (Nick) would steal The Crew. I think that’s such a good choice for a challenge like this. Great game, great for a well rounded collection, infinitely playable, and in a small box. I honestly think it’s the best single choice of the whole video
I’m (Mike) stealing castles of burgundy
This was very, very close as you both have some of my favorite games on your shelves but I had to go with Nick. His picks just *barely* edge out Mike's for me (honestly, Black Sonata helped push it over the edge because it's a game I've been super curious about and with Nick's shelf, I could actually try it!)
I had Nick with the early lead with Viticulture and Clans out of the gate, but as space became a factor, Mike charged back with the Crew and Cascadia and took the halfway lead with Ark Nova. Along the backstretch, things got tight with some small back-and-forth jostling. Heading into the homestretch Nick pulled ahead with an adrenaline rush with the D&D Handbook but slowed as the finish neared. Mike made a last-minute surge with Silver and Gold and Cribbage, but could not squeeze out any more. Winner: Nick by a nose.
Love the commentary!! I saw the whole race flash before my eyes!
This video has me wrestling with the space we have for our collection and what a well rounded, organized shelf could look like if we were to trim it down based on staying power, parity, and the joy they bring.
So thank you!
Cheers!!
Nick has D&D handbook but no dice and Mike has a Cribbage board but no cards. Absolute bing bongs 😂.
It's really tough but I gotta go with Nick's shelf.
And picked wingspan expansion with out the base game. 🤷♂️
@@joshfrench5858 Asia can be played as a stand alone two player game.
@@suzannebrownbill9232 interesting. I never bothered with it. Base game with the two expansions is fine for me. Does it enhance the base game at all?
D&D is all about imagination. I’ll just imagine my dice
Well I choose that quiet year rpg which uses cards that have the standard numbers and suits so I think I can use it for cribbage but you’re absolutely right about nick not having dice!! Oops!
Gosh this video makes me feel so validated because this is essentially how I organize my Kallax shelves. It’s sooooo satisfying to use up as much three-dimensional space possible. I do mine a little differently, we could call it “mullet style”: business in the front, chaotic party of hidden games in the back. Also, you forgot to take it to the next level and put boxes WITHIN boxes! That’s basically what I do, but it does lead to a lot of instances of “wait, where the ass did that game go again?”
Also, Nick wins.
Haha you’re the ultimate shelf packer! I can dig it!
@TheBrothersMurph , Jamie and Jeff are throwing shade at your kallax pronunciation, got to hit em with the abooot👢 and baaaaaygels🥯 😆
We on it!
Watched this tonight and my husband and I are planning to set this challenge for ourselves tomorrow on what we can fit in a cube. 😂 Thanks as always for such a fun video. We were at a toss up of which one of you had the better cube.
That’s awesome we hope you have a blast doing the challenge!

Love the head-to-head; adds a whole new dimension to the puzzle challenge! I think Mike came out ahead in the end.
I've been waiting to see someone just throw the Too Many Bones Trove Chest in there and be like, "I'm done." 🙃
I'd also like to see a challenge where someone sees how many games they can fit in one cube if they take them out of the boxes: distill Splendor down to the ~10 cubic inches it actually needs!
Oh man if we did that I’m not convinced we could get twice as many games on the shelf!
It’d be chaos but so many games!
What an awesome challenge! There are so many great games in smaller boxes.
Gonna let you guys know what I put in one of my shelves.
Please do!
Such a great idea and so much fun to watch!! Oh man!
A very hard choice but for me the winner is Mike’s shelf. Exactly at the moment in the video when I was wondering why nobody grabs Ark Nova, Mike took it. That was a big swing and finally, when he added Burgle Bros., I loved his collection too much to switch again!
Some great games for the purpose of this challenge were (for me) Spicy, Skull King, Splendor Duel, Grove, and any other button shy game.
the amount of....."ooooohh" "aahhhhh" "Thatttt...nooooo...maybeee" haha
hehehe it was an emotional experience for sure!
Dudes, what a tough call. On one hand Mike has Wingspan, Cascadia, Ark Nova, and so many others while Nick has Viticulture, Cartographers, Castles of Burgundy....since it's tough call I'm going with Mikes (as us Mike's have to stick together). Great choices all around.
Mikes for life!
You guys are awesome! Nick won this round for me.
Wahoo!
Just watched this one. Definitely have to do this one at some point.
Love this! You guys needed some Button Shy to squeeze on those shelves!
Yeah we only have tussie mussie so far
@@TheBrothersMurph We should work on that 😄 But love that Village Rails got in there early!

This right here is why I love board gamers. Y’all do the MATH! I am honestly shocked by how much one cube of games can cost
Thanks! I was thinking the same thing, but didn't really want to do the research.
A couple price notes:
1. Miniature Market lists Viticulture Essential for $48 and Tuscany Essential for $24. So Nick's total should be $510.84 (not including expansions for Empires of the North, which I believe were mentioned).
2. Ark Nova's price struck me as high. It's $47.97 at Game Nerdz. Deducting $20.02 from Mike's total makes it $534.20.
This brings Nick and Mike's totals much closer (and possibly puts a higher price tag on Nick's shelf).
@@TheBrothersMurph New challenge: Best Board Game Collection for Under $500
Sorry, you're going to have to do your own math for that one, but at least shelf space won't be a limiting factor.
@@boardgameaddiction7081 Nice catch!
If I have to pick one...tough call...but I gotta go with Nick for the win. Mike has some solid contenders, Nick just had a shelf that matched my tastes more. Great video gents!
Genius to fit that many games in a small shelf!
It was a really fun challenge
I can’t decide which is better! Some great choices in each. You guys went at it a completely different way from what I would, I would forget about size and just pick my favourites 😅 might have to give it a go. I was surprised at how many games you can actually get in a cube. Great video, loving the new year content 😊
Have to give it to Mike here, though Nick's was not far behind. I'd have been happy with Cascadia, Viscounts & Ark Nove for light/ med/ heavy games, then a bunch of solid side picks. Great segment, more like
these please.
This is the most realistic representation of the hobby for most of us with limited space!
I'd go Mike just.
Tempted by Ark Nova, but Nick’s cube has so many of my faves! Viticulture, Radlands, Scout 🤩
Brilliant idea! Really intriguing to watch
This was a lot of fun. Its a win for Mike I believe, but I wouldn't be made with either shelf.
I love this format. Hope it catches on!
We hope so too!
Same!!
Mike won for me. Great video as always guys.
This might be my most enjoyed video from TBM.
That’s high praise! So so happy to hear it
I’m picking Mike’s shelf. This was a hard choice. Y’all stuffed those shelves to the max! One of my fav bits y’all have done
While Mike’s shelf is stacked tight, I enjoy the games on Nick’s shelf more. She Nick is my winner.
Dig it
Love for Friday! That is always good to see. :)
Great video. Mike's shelf of games is my preference. And it looks better even if he has no cards for the cribbage board.
But I do in fact. The quiet year rpg uses a deck of cards to take you through the story so I pulled a sneaky sneak
Nick with a slight victory due to Viticulture, Empires of the North and Radlands. Mike made it tough with Cascadia, Ark Nova, High Society and a few small games.
Nick by a small margin. I love Castles of Burgundy, Viticulture and Beer and Bread. Would like to try Project L, Clans of Caledonia, Radlands, and Black Sonata. Great little exercise. I would probably go with Castles, Viticulture, Terraforming Mars and Watergate. I wonder if Mike added Le Havre in what he would have taken out.
Nick... all day long! But let's check with a board game solution... each game gets a value based on my opinion (1-3): Mike:1+2+3+2+3+1+3+2+2+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+2+1+1=31points Nick:2+2+2+1+3+2+3+3+1+1+3+3+3+2+1+2+1+1+1=37points Nick wins it... but I gotta tell you, Not having Rajas really hurts. Sorry about all the ones guys, but I have not played all these games, so I gave you a point for quantity. In the end, it's just my stinkin' opinion! Great fun!
Math don’t lie. I appreciate that you took the scientific approach!
Nick won, mainly because of adding the D&D book in that little slot. Very entertaining as always. If I had to get 1 shelf my dominion collection would take up most, I could fit in Concordia, Targi, Air, Land and Sea and 7 Wonders Duel. Keep making great videos
Seeing Ginkgopolis in there warmed my heart. One of the very best games out there
I was excited about Ark Nova, Rajas & Cascadia but the Viticulture, Clans, Castles & Cartographers combo pushed me to Nick's side! Great video👍
Wahoo!!!
Let this be a lesson to publishers--folks who don't have the space can't even consider a game with wasted space inside the box.
Just.. trash the box.
Ewww no way
Facts! I completely understand the idea of self presence in a store, and wanting to have some thing that sticks out, but I will always be intrigued by some thing that is the size of village rails. I am actively of a mind now, where if a box is smaller than I expected I get more excited for that game.
@@TheBrothersMurph I have two caveats: Room for the expansion in the original box is nice since fewer boxes is better, and if you have an insert for cards PLEASE make it wide enough for sleeved cards or some people have to throw the whole insert out.
Watching this while trying to put away games after we took a ton off the shelf for our best of 2022 video. Tetris style is how I usually do it.
Heck yeah. Peak efficiency
THIS WAS FUN!!🎉 My vote is Mike for the best shelf. It was close competition though, truly.
Awesome video and great challenge. I gotta go with Mike's list. However, Nick's is also great. I can see you doing this with different constraints like games you would bring to a party, or for the Holiday's and stuff like that.
We are definitely considering doing more challenges like that so great suggestions!
It's a tie! Tiebreaker is obviously swag, and Mike takes it. Due simply to the fact that he has an infant and is wearing a solid-colored shirt that isn't covered in food (or other) stains. Pure Swag. Great vid, lads. enjoyed immensely.
I literally have no idea how I managed a clean shirt there haha
Nick has some bangers, but Mike has Ginkopolis, Village Rails, and London, so gotta go with that cube! Fun video, as always.
Brilliant format! We can all put ourselves in your shoes, browsing the shelves. Fun to watch! Next time. Allow yourselves 1 big game for on TOP of your shelf. I think many of us have used Kallax tops to cheat and say “SEE!!! It’s not full. I still have room for more game/s”!
Ha! Gotta have a shelf hat. Love that idea
I think the more the better. I'd try to squeeze in some Tiny Epic games like Galaxies, Dungeons, Heroes and Pirates. 7 Wonders Duel, Splendor Duel, Fantasy Realms, Star Realms, Cartographers and I might even have room for one or two big box games like Terraforming Mars, Castles of Burgudy or Spirit Island.
OMG, didn't you guys hear me screaming 7 Wonders Duel?! 😜Nick looked in that area SO many times. Every time he passed it by for something else I was all: Nooooo!
BTW - Mike won bc of Ginkgopolis
Right? I was looking right at 7WD when he said, "I don't have any 2-player games..." and then he picked up Beer and Bread!
I (Nick) am not a huge fan of 7 Wonders Duel. But Mike is, I was surprised he didn’t grab it
Ha! Nick isn’t a fan of that one and I ran out of room to take it but wanted it!
@@JonTripp115 IKR OMG - Beer & Bread might be good, but 7WD has stood the test of time!
My collection of 15+ Button Shy games would have come in clutch lol. (Also I don't have an addiction to Button Shy....I swear).
You guys managing to fit those last few games in was *cheff's kiss* perfection. Man I just can't pick a winner though, I think if Nick had The Crew he would win just slightly. As it stands I honestly would call it a draw. Well done.
We’ll take the draw!
I feel like you would have won the challenge with like 5,729 button shy games.
Love this video and this idea!
To me there is a very very clear winner and that would be Michael Lee Murphy!
YIIISSSSSSSSSSS
Mike has Wingspan, cascadia, ark nova and tussie mussie. And bag o chips, c’mon now.
Mike definitely won. Such a great selection of games and very compact
Yasssssss
100% doing this and 100% making a better collection than both of you bing bongs. Just kidding! Both were great collections and it’s hard to choose! I think I might be learning towards Nicks cube! Viticulture, TCOB, Cartographers, Radlands, Scout, D&D! So good. But also Viscounts, Ark Nova, Cascadia, Wingspan on Mikes cube! Daaannngggg! 👏🏻
Looking forward to seeing your video!
Mike wins it for me. Simply comes down to preference in the games chosen, well played by Nick as well however.
Wahoo!
Nick wins for me. Viticulture, Castles, Empires of the North, Scout, Radlands... all some of my favorites.
I accept this outcome!
This is a really fun challenge
Cheers!!
id love to see another video that involves nesting Games! like this concept combined with the one about fitting as many games in one box
We actually did that one!: th-cam.com/video/_MPyMklUurg/w-d-xo.html
I mean combine that video with this one!
So nesting all the games possible and fitting as many boxes that are nested into a kallax cube
Ahhhhhhhh gotcha
Great idea for a video! I felt the tension with every pick... go for a bigger game I love? But which one? And how many smaller games am I going to have to give up for it? Gah!
I would have definitely opened a bigger box and put smaller games inside. Even smaller boxes often have so much wasted space. I took Decrypto on a couple camping trips last year and fit One Night Ultimate Werewolf, Boom-O, Oh My Goods! plus the Longsdale expansion, and a deck of standard playing cards inside - that's a bunch of game in a small box!
As for the winner... I can't decide. Great games on both shelves along with too many that I haven't played yet to be able to choose.
For me in my collection I woulda added stuff like Orleans, long shot, unmatched cobble and fog, scout, splendor duel, hive, a set of dice throne, patchwork, skull king, tiny epic Vikings, etc.
OR I’d just do foundations of rome and be done lol.
The funny thing is I am in this place right now. Running out of space, so I keep shuffling things to make it fit. Great time.
It’s a struggle sometimes for sure!!
Gotta give Nick the win on this one. Viticulture, CoC, and EotN are just so good!
Yeahhh those were good picks for sure
Mike's has more want to plays, but Nick takes the win with Viticulture, Castles of Burgundy, Cartographers, and Fantasy Realms.
Ugh... this is hard but I'm going to go with Mike's shelf. The irony is that I actually own more of Nick's list than I do of Mike's.
This is so tough. So half and half. Had to count who had more of what I liked. So it's 14 to 11 to Mike. But Nick has 3 of my favorite games in his shelf....arghhhh. You buttz
In my opinion Nick won. This is a great challenge. I think he had games I prefer like castles of burgundy and scout etc.
Ok...Mike, you know I love you, I respect you and I'm sorry...but this one goes to Nick. I also took some time to think about your challenge and my chaotic self went with something different. I've found the perfect collection for one cube, one shelf. What if there was one game to rule them all? One game that was made in a fiery pit of melting plastic. Indestructible, immovable. Created to fit entirely in one kallax cube. To bind you in eternity in its glory...what if...you pick the trove chest from too many bones.
Ooooh Lordy that’s a heavy decision to make I’ll have to think on it!
"I would say that's sticking out!"
"Don't say thaaaat"
😆
He literally wasn’t giving me an inch
Both are really solid shelves, but I have to settle on Nick's. Black Sonata, Castles of Burgundy, Cartographers, and Viticulture. I could play those four games for a year and not get tired of them.
Gotta with Nick on this one!
Ugh. Fine. :P
It is a tough choice as you guys did a phenomenal job packing those shelves with great choices but I think I have to give it to Mike
Yaaaaaaaaasssssss!
Smash Up would take up the entire cube LOL
Mike lost early in my opinion. I will say I like the Ginkopolis and High Society pick. Hands down Nick with Castles, Empires and Clans. Great video.
I can dig it!
I just finished the video and London was an awesome comeback. Mike still got smoked…lol.
Both shelves are awesome! My final vote is for Nick because of Viticulture, Castles of Burgundy, and Empires of the North. In the end, if it were me, I couldn't do without those three!
Awesome video, and awesome choices... though I will admit the tetris part of my brain was going crazy watching you both stuff things into the shelves. 🙃 I applaud Mike for going big with Ark Nova! That was a bold choice! Nick, Castles of Burgundy, one of my favorites! We have been looking for something fun and different to film for our channel, this challenge just might be it!
I want to climb through the screen and Tetris-rearrange your cubes! I feel like you could have fit a little bit more! 😂
You probably could have!
@@TheBrothersMurph you guys did great though. I’m just a space-maximizing nerd. But that’s okay, because we love nerds in the Murphiverse! 😉
Ark Nova is my favorite of all the ones chosen...however, I like CoB almost as much, and there is a lot more games in Nick's collection I like. Ahhh, sorry, Mike! I VOTE NICK!!!!
I respect it
Honestly, if Furnace was in a smaller box, it would have been a great addition to the shelf.
Facts
Thanks, guys! I'd say it's high time somebody made some content specifically for us submariners.
Listen, if you give me one submarine for a weekend, I will make all the Contant in the world for you. I’m sure that they would loan one out right?
Great challenge! I would have to say Mike wins with Wingspan, Ginkopolis and Ark Nova.
Good choice!
You can hear Mikes heart breaking knowing AFFO takes up too much room on the shelf😂
I knowwwwww. Right away I knew it was off the table. I don’t regret not including it but dang I wanted that game
@@TheBrothersMurph I was wondering if Fields of Arle could scratch a similar-enough itch (?).
@@pnutbutrncrackers It's very much a Uwe game, and has Uwe feels. But they're honestly very different games
@@TheBrothersMurph K
I’d also want to see All You Can Board try this challenge!
This was so much fun to watch. Great Video guys. The final competition is really tight, but I have to give the nod to Nick because of the D&D Player's Handbook. A lot of the other games are pretty comparable for me and both collections are well rounded, but the inclusion of an RPG puts it over the top in favor of Nick for me. Again, great video and great discussion on both sides.
Mike for the Win!! Adding the cribbiage board was golden lol.
Interesting you did not have any Buttonshy games, that would have added so many more into the cube.
I added Tussie Mussie what you talkin bout?
This was awesome! NOW, you should see who won this with the BGG ratings. Score?
Digging the glasses and shaved head look 👍
Ayyyyye thanks so much!
I would have gone for Red Cathedral for small factor worker placement, but you both tied in my book because you both have games I enjoy. - Cartographers, Cascadia, Wing Span, Viscounts, Silver & Gold, Ark Nova. It's like packing a game bag to take to game night... similar conundrum.
Shoulda thought of red cathedral great choice in a compact box
This was fun to watch! I guess I need to look into My City Roll and Build now.
It’s so good!
Nick wins for putting a deck of cards in the cube. As far as if I was going to make a cube, the biggest challenge would be a lot of the games I'd want to put on it would be boxes that have overhang. I'm pretty sure something like Inis has overhang, but I don't see it because the molding on the wall keeps the Kallax from being flush.
This is so close! It's Ali-Frazier 1 (boxing🥊)! I love Castles of Burgundy and the deck of cards in Nick's cube, but Mike has Ginkgopolis and the Crew. Both have games I'd like to try, though. At the end of the day, because of Mike's beautiful fitting of the cribbage board as his final touch I'm going to award him the victory by a razor-thin margin. I raise Mike's hand in the center of the ring. The victor!
With the play by play! You officially win
@@TheBrothersMurph Ha!
Im voting Nick. Radlands and Viticulture are easily in my top 20.
Going to have to try this with my wife, What a fun idea!
I like how this became a game of Tetris halfway through! I think Mike won for aesthetic reasons, but I might pick Nick for the actual games since I think he has more games that I like on his shelf.
I’ll take the win on looks!
Mine would be... star realms, xia, sheriff of Nottingham, tiny epic galaxies, tiny epic zombies, and hive pocket.
Nice!
Easy win for Nick’s cube.
Ya love to see it
My Vote goes to Nick. Castles of Burgundy, Cartographers, Radlands, Viticulture, DnD, Beer & Bread... I would gladly play all of those
I respect it
Yall not have Castles of Burgundy: The Card Game? Extremely good space saver if you like OG Castles of Burgundy.
We actually just culled it, we never really loved it unfortunately
