      Matt and Quinns at this point have become monoliths, unshakeable from their precipices as long-time board game critics. Tom feels like OUR rising champ. The creative energy coupled with the self-deprecation that defines my life. We get to see his rise and his passion develop. Am I allowed to have a favorite SUSD guy? Because I am always excited for a Tom video even if I don't care about the game.

    My favorite part of the game? Playing “auctioneer” when you offer a painting from your hand. You get to come up with a bunch of nonsense to describe the artist, their painting, and the *certain* future value of the art. A true classic.

    You forgot to mention the most important part of Modern Art: THE TINY GAVEL!!! It may be the best game component ever invented. Holding the tiny gavel makes a player THE AUCTIONEER, imbued with the power that title entails. The toy factor is high with the tiny gavel, and words cannot describe how effortlessly it enables players to slip into the theme.

  • @michaelwindsor882
    @michaelwindsor882 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Modern Art is a game that I can explain the rules of in 5 minutes, but also one where I have revelations about strategy almost every time I play. It's so elegant and complex, but also so fun for a first time player who has no idea what they're doing. It's cutthroat calculation, speculation, psychological manipulation, plus giving paintings goofy names and laughing at yourself for getting drawn into a ridiculous bidding war where there's no way you should pay that much but there's also no way you can let your opponent get that painting.
