    That was much more entertaining than expected! The "market" restocking mechanic of flipping the points card is great - it means that you can strategically get rid of any point cards that are going to help your opponent on their turn, without having to take it yourself, and while also getting veggies that can give you points! Smart!

    Just wondering was there any logic involved in choosing 53 cards for this play through? The rules say 36 for 2 player and 54 for 3 player? I do tend to believe the game is too short with 36 cards all the same. Will have to try the 2 player at 54 cards. It's also recommended when removing cards, that the same number of each suit are removed. 53 not being a multiple of 6 meant at best 1 suit was short a card, which was not considered here as you have 10 onions and only 8 tomatoes. Just saying... Thanks for the great play through, very entertaining!

    Edit: I do wish the maths at the end was a bit simpler though. Surely there's got to be a way to streamline that, just generally speaking.

    :O Fluxx is one of my favorites! It's one of the easiest games to teach and actually get a game going in, and it's also very different every time, so I pull it out as a space filler for every party.

    • @marhawkman303
      @marhawkman303 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Also the various rethemes are each unique and different. It's not just new names for cards, they have new mechanics as well.
      Fluxx is definitely a game where people can just win at random, but it does have some strategy. Moreover, if you don't agonize over every move, it's quick. You play to a winner, then reset. You can get in 10+ games in an hour.
