"Hey, this is gonna be fun! BUT - i wanna be super specific about the rules. But seriously it's just to be silly. But we need to be silly the right way. If there's no rules, why even have fun?" --Straight up, Board Gamer Life right there.
I love your challenge videos they’re always so random and fun! Plus sometimes you get to highlight games you mightn’t typically talk about in more standard videos.
How does Distilled not get picked for black? Mike got jacked for Kanban Ev. It’s definitely white. Also I think he won the challenge. It is pretty close but I give the edge to him. Awesome challenge.
@rosiemurphy1821 i would never defend Nick (because obviously, right?), but Indigo really screwed up the simplicity of the rainbow. Every other friggin color is found in your standard box of 8 kindergarten starter-pack Crayolas; they're also all primary or secondary colors. Additionally, it also being "purplish" is why they had to call purple "violet" instead of freaking purple. Nobody has ever asked for an indigo anything, and we need to stop pretending it's ok. The physics of light refraction aside, I vote we declare indigo "no longer a rainbow color" and just a "color-like shade in the spectrum". I'm still bitter about what they did to Pluto, so Indigo can suck it.
@rosiemurphy1821 i completely believe you. I'm too dumb to understand anything that doesn't come in the pack at Denny's to color on my kid's menu. Anyone who fancies themselves an artist is the real embarrassment here. *cough* NICK *cough*
Even before it got pulled off the shelf, the first white game I thought of was Kanban EV. That is absolutely a white box! Gotta admit, listening to you two bicker like 2 old men who have known each other for 50+ years is probably my favorite part of your videos. 😂
This looks like a fun one to do. Kanban EV looks white to me. "Indigo is a deeper, more blue-toned color that sits between blue and violet on the color spectrum, while violet is a brighter, more purple hue; essentially, indigo is considered a darker version of violet, often appearing closer to blue than a true violet color would be"
To start filming a rainbow challenge without knowing what indigo and violet are and making very loose rules on the fly about it, just to turn around and say Kanban is not white is insane! I’m giving Mike the win #JusticeForMike
Fun video! My choices would be: Red - Mage Knight: Ultimate Edition(would like for this to be WotR but not sure it's quite red enough XD.) Orange - Zombicide: Black Plague Yellow - Everdell: The Complete Collection(might have chosen HEAT but not sure if enough yellow?) Green - Rajas of the Ganges(interchangeable with Ark Nova) Blue - Ark Nova(Interchangeable with Rajas of the Ganges) Purple - Clank Catacombs Violet - Not sure on this color, if Fantasy Realms qualifies, that would be my choice. Black - Terraforming Mars: The Big Box White - Just One(need a party game, otherwise I would choose Rococo: Deluxe Edition.) Beige - Gotta go with Nick on this one and choose La Granja: Deluxe Master Set, if I need to be different I would choose World Wonders.
Questioning Mike's choice for Green! Relly Nick After the water bottle scandal For shame Jimmy is getting paid off Mike This is maybe not the best, but I only have around 40 games in my collection But I do have a few Bangers Boys! Scythe for Beige in my collection Blue - Underwater Cities Yellow - Harmonies Takenoko would fill one of those violet or indigo colors I suppose Black - Solid Wood Cribbage from Cardinal...it comes in a black box White - Welcome Back To The Dungeon Red - Uno Green - Monopoly Deal Orange - No go, but honestly, the game I have the would have the most orangish color would be A Feast For Odin - Feuerland
Great video! Quick half-baked idea/question? You guys played Codenames Duet using board games…do you think you could play a form of Hues and Cues using board games?
Another top notch video! This was a lot of fun to watch and play along with my own collection. I loved the debates about colour. Honestly, Mike won the first half of the draft and Nick won the second half. I appreciate Nick's drafting philosophy but at the end of the day, I'd rather have Mike's collection of games. From my own collection: Red - Barcelona Orange - Sankore: The Pride of Mansa Musa Yellow - Everdell (Complete Collection) Green - Endeavor: Age of Sail Blue - Tidal Blades: Heroes of the Reef Purple - Voidfall Violet - Dinosaur Island Black - Terracotta Army White - The Great Wall Beige - Wayfarers of the South Tigris
No question Kanban EV is a white game. There is WAY more white than red. There is WAY more white than blue. There is WAY more white than any other single color on that box. There needed to be more structure from the beginning. Are we talking about the game as a whole? The entire box? Just the cover? And having Five Cucumbers supporting all that weight? Friedemann Friese must be rolling in his warm, cozy bed right now! In conclusion: Stressful to watch. 10 out of 10. Can't wait for the next board game drafting video.
I will just say that I feel like Mike's collection has a more cohesive rainbow profile. I feel Nick's indigo pick throws the look off a bit with all that black, and the violet has a lot of orange on that side. I think they're good picks, those box sides just muddy the rainbow a bit.
I did it with my collection, very fun to do :) Red : Mosaic Orange : Terraforming Mars; Ares Expedition Yellow : Darwin's journey Green : Tapestry Blue : Comet Purple : Concordia Venus Violet/Pink : Galileo Project Black : Final Girl White : Raising Robots Beige : Amerigo P-S I will accept Kanban for white! But I prefer Nick rainbow, sorry Mike!
Thanks guys! I would say Windmill Valley covers the whole rainbow so you are done :-) I had it 5/5 with the tie-breaker going to the game I would like to try the most (Gaia Project). My picks... Red: HEAT - Petal to the Metal Orange: ThunderRoad Yellow: (Yellow was the hardest) Railroad Ink Shining yellow. Green: Green Team Wins Blue: Brian Boru Indigo: Kings of Israel Violet: Settlers of Canaan Black: Dark Tower (I was thinking Project L so you must have picked up on that Mike) White: Formula D (Kanban EV is more white than LaGranja but I want to play LaGranja more!) Beige: Ezra & Nehemiah Bonus Brown: Banish the Snakes Bonus Gray : Pillars of the Earth
Fun concept! from my own collection: R - The Bloody Inn O - Terraforming Mars Y - Everdell G - Viticulture B - Knarr I - Tribes of the Wind V - Eldritch Horror? B - Distilled W - Endless Winter Beige - Beer and Bread
Mike's stack looked more pleasing to the eye. But other guy's list (I don't know other guy's name somehow?!) has more games I want to play, and is a more well rounded collection. (Five tribes as orange really looks off on the rainbow, and wonderland's war should've maybe been filed under Black)
Nick has Wonder Wars a current game I made gifts to use while playing from themed material, But Mike has Viscount. Oh I think I won because I got to see both stacks!!!!!! Thanks you it was fun.
Red: Castles of Burgundy Orange: Alhambra Yellow: Acquire (Renegade version) Green: Ark Nova Blue: Turret Dice: The Defenders (Cooperative, Dice Placement, Tower Defense. Not out yet, but it's on BGG.) Purple: Scout Pink: Takenoko Black: Space Base White: So Clover Beige: Le Havre Missed opportunity in the video for Rainbow final pick, as many colors as possible: Flip 7 (Dat Holographic box)
Interesting way to draft game😅 It's actually the first list you made I had easy time also doing myself Red - Crusaders thy will be done Orange - Mage Knight Yellow - Wayfarer's of the south Tigris Green - Altiplano Blue - Lisboa (Tzolk'in was so close) Purple - Concordia Venus Pink - Pret a porter Black - Skulk hollow White - Undaunted (again, Kanban was so close) Grey - Great Western Trail Beige - Teotihuacan
My personal list would look something like thus 👌🌈 Red: Sushi Go! Orange: ThunderRoad Vandetta Yellow: Harmonies Green: Ark Nova Blue: Sea Salt and Paper Indigo: Stella: Dixit Universe Violet/Pink: Skull Black: Hegemony White: Flame Craft Beige: Welcome To... Bonus, Rainbow: Décorum
R - Architects of the West Kingdom O - Western Legends(Big Box) Y - Summer Camp G - Point Salad B - Toy Story Obstacles & Adventures I - The Golden Ticket Game V - Wisdom of Solomon B - The Godfather: Corleone's Empire W - Robinson Crusoe (collector box) B - Welcome to
Here’s mine R - Red Rising O - Terraforming Mars Y - Huang G - Photosynthesis B - Starship Captains I - Scout V - Unsettled B - Veiled Fate W - Turing Machine B - Lords of Baseball
I can't with your colors 😄Nucleum is green - I have some of my games in rainbow order and Nucleum is green. And Kanban has a slight blue tint but I'd say it's white and since today I am clearly on Mike's side I'm going with his collection 😅
Tough choice between the two sets, especially with Thunder Road being in the other pile, but Nick wins this for me! (Just) My picks would be Freelancers (red) Thunder Road: Vendetta Maximum Chrome (orange) Alhambra (yellow) The Wolves (green) Foundations of Rome (blue) Wonderlands War (indigo) Skull (violet (kinda)) Distilled (black) Cubitos (white) Books of Time (white) Sushi Go Party (beige)
The arguments over what colour a game is is wild - for me it's very much vibes based and I fully am with Mike on Kanban is white. Even if Kanban is tinged green/blue it's much more white than either of those colours, and similarly Nucleum has the vibe of green. I think overall I'd go with Mike's pile, but I think Nick's collection might have a little more of a rounded variety. For me, from my collection, I'd probably have (to choose a fun but somewhat rounded collection): - Red -> Age of Innovation - Orange -> I genuinely don't own a really orange game, so I'm going to say Draftosaurus as it has a big orange T-Rex on front - Yellow -> Fantastic Factories, again maybe a bit of a stretch, but it does have very prominent yellow rays on it - Green -> Startups - Blue -> Keep the Heroes Out! - Indigo -> Leviathan Wilds - Violet -> Daitoshi - Black -> Keep the Heroes Out!: Boss Battles (but if I can sneakily bundle that with the base game, then instead I'd pick Final Girl) - White -> Furnace (plus you can bundle it and the Interbellum expansion into the expansion box for sneaky extra content) - Beige/Brown -> The White Castle (or Mysterium if we're not letting that be a beige game)
@condar15 i appreciate that you took the time to make your own. Sign me up for Keep The Heroes Out! Game gets no love from content creators, just the peons.
I want to pick Mike because of Viscounts and Thunder Road Vendetta... But I want to pick Nick because of Wonderlands War and Beer & Bread... Such a hard decision. But I think I'm going with Nick because Beer & Bread holds a very special place in my heart since it was one of the last games I played with my best friend before he passed away. Ps. I really love your challenge videos! Thanks for all of the awesome content! 🫶🏻
Soooo, might be because I'm watching on my tiny phone screen, buuuuut... Mike is right on ALL the color debates. Nucleum is green, Prodigals Club is beige, and Kanban is the whitest box in existence! That said, Nick has the better collection. Am I saying Mike is the better gamer but Nick is more fun? I didn't say that - you said that. Vote in the chat!
The list from my collection would be R - Mosaic O - Terraforming Mara Y - Habitats G - Trolls and Princesses B - Fields of Arle I - Fantasy Realms V - Dwellings of Eldervale BLK - Golem W - The Shipwreck Arcana BGE - Onitama
Very surprised castles of Burgundy big box didn't get chosen for blue!! My RED would probably be Paladins, though the bloody inn was a close second ORANGE would also be thunder road vendetta YELLOW would probably be bananagrams GREEN would be So Clover BLUE would be Castles of Burgundy special edition INDIGO: Of What's Left VIOLET/PINK: Feudum! Black: Arcs White: isle of cats Beige: Crokinole!!
My choice would be: R: Secret Identity O: Terraforming Mars Y: 6 Nimmt G: Meadow B: Brian Boru I: Blood on the Clocktower V: Anachrony Bl: Nemesis W: The Great Wall Bg: Just one this is a collection I would be proud of!
Out of all the games shown I have only played 5 Tribes. So picking Mike's rainbow picks. My list is R-Blood Rage/O-Dixit/Y-Trekking through History/G-Ark Nova/Blu-Endless Winter/In-Meadow/Vi-Fractured Sky/Bla-Dune Imperium/W-Evolution(hard to pick due to color majority rules)/Br-Everdell Fun to watch and Happy Holidays all
Mikey... Mikey Mikey Mikey. I'm sorry but i cant give you this one. Nick has The Loop, one of my top 10 games and the only coop in the bunch. In light of that i will have to say the winner of this challenge is Jimmy, because neither of you have a game with polyominoes in it. Better luck next time boys
Ha! This strikes me as a sign of board game content channel exhaustion. But I'll give you credit for ingenuity :) What will you two think of next?? TH-cam can't be satisfied, it demands constant new and fresh content longer than you can remain sane , we must be entertained!
For me Mike wins just barely. Beer and Bread, La Granja, wonderlands war and Grand Austria hotel beat out Mike's picks for the specific colours IMO, but overall I would rather have Mike's 10 games. Sorry Nick!
Kanban ev definitely looks white in the video
@@Statler76 +1
I’m colorblind so my opinion doesn’t actually matter but it looked very white to me lol
@@Bennettbrawler naaaah, your opinion matters more! If Nick says you're wrong, he's not being inclusive. SHAME HIM.
I don’t have kanban but if you ask me to name white boxes I say charterstone and kanban 😂
"Hey, this is gonna be fun! BUT - i wanna be super specific about the rules. But seriously it's just to be silly. But we need to be silly the right way. If there's no rules, why even have fun?" --Straight up, Board Gamer Life right there.
You get the vision
Nucleum is for sure brown. Kanban EV is BLINDINGLY white
I love your challenge videos they’re always so random and fun! Plus sometimes you get to highlight games you mightn’t typically talk about in more standard videos.
gaslighting mike out of kanban is HILARIOUS
The last thing I expected to see this morning was a resurgence of The Dress Debate™️ in the board game hobby
@michaelbowling2348 this is a quality reference.
So this is how I learn Kanban EV isn't white.
Nick has Wonderlands War...he wins automatically!!!
Random fun....I'm here for that! Mike, I was yelling Carpe Diem at the screen. It's an enjoyable game.
How does Distilled not get picked for black? Mike got jacked for Kanban Ev. It’s definitely white. Also I think he won the challenge. It is pretty close but I give the edge to him. Awesome challenge.
Nick. Who is also an artist… “what the heck is indigo!?”
I stand by that question
@rosiemurphy1821 i would never defend Nick (because obviously, right?), but Indigo really screwed up the simplicity of the rainbow. Every other friggin color is found in your standard box of 8 kindergarten starter-pack Crayolas; they're also all primary or secondary colors.

The physics of light refraction aside, I vote we declare indigo "no longer a rainbow color" and just a "color-like shade in the spectrum". I'm still bitter about what they did to Pluto, so Indigo can suck it.
@@TheDavidPhillips it’s simple. Indigo is a blue based purple. Or purple based blue. Violet is a red based purple. Yall crazy.
@rosiemurphy1821 i completely believe you. I'm too dumb to understand anything that doesn't come in the pack at Denny's to color on my kid's menu. Anyone who fancies themselves an artist is the real embarrassment here. *cough* NICK *cough*
@ yeah! Let’s throw this back onto Nick. GET IT TOGETHER NERD!
What’s super satisfying about this is that this was filmed after Dave’s visit… and we now know there’s a surprise in one of those boxes…. Or is there
Even before it got pulled off the shelf, the first white game I thought of was Kanban EV. That is absolutely a white box!
Gotta admit, listening to you two bicker like 2 old men who have known each other for 50+ years is probably my favorite part of your videos. 😂
Mike's choice for purple gave me great joy!
Two video ideas for you: Dinner and a Game (board game feast) - where you pair food and games. And Movie and a Game - where you pair games with movies
Yayyy! So happy to see this idea become a video! I made the comment on the Box Size Challenge video to do this!
What a fun way to talk about games. You both have games I enjoy and ones I hope to play.
This kind of stuff is some of my favorite content these guys put out. Loved it!
I was wondering what i was watching this morning. Then i see this. I'm happy now.
Game quality: Nick wins 5-4.
Colleciton balance: Nick wins 7-5.
Following the drafting rules: Mike wins by 3 points.
This looks like a fun one to do. Kanban EV looks white to me.
"Indigo is a deeper, more blue-toned color that sits between blue and violet on the color spectrum, while violet is a brighter, more purple hue; essentially, indigo is considered a darker version of violet, often appearing closer to blue than a true violet color would be"
I could select my Stonewall Uprising Pride Edition to complete the entire challenge. This is a great draft video
To start filming a rainbow challenge without knowing what indigo and violet are and making very loose rules on the fly about it, just to turn around and say Kanban is not white is insane! I’m giving Mike the win #JusticeForMike
Absolutely agree. Kanban is white, especially in this context. It wouldn't quality for anything else!
Fun video! My choices would be:
Red - Mage Knight: Ultimate Edition(would like for this to be WotR but not sure it's quite red enough XD.)
Orange - Zombicide: Black Plague
Yellow - Everdell: The Complete Collection(might have chosen HEAT but not sure if enough yellow?)
Green - Rajas of the Ganges(interchangeable with Ark Nova)
Blue - Ark Nova(Interchangeable with Rajas of the Ganges)
Purple - Clank Catacombs
Violet - Not sure on this color, if Fantasy Realms qualifies, that would be my choice.
Black - Terraforming Mars: The Big Box
White - Just One(need a party game, otherwise I would choose Rococo: Deluxe Edition.)
Beige - Gotta go with Nick on this one and choose La Granja: Deluxe Master Set, if I need to be different I would choose World Wonders.
Why is this so entertaining? 😂 But I could say that about all your videos. 😄
Giving crap for La Granja not being white, Nucleum not being green and Kanban not being white when Seasons went as orange is wild!
Kanban is very white. Amazing choices I saw on your shelf: Fields of Arle (Green), Caverna (Brown), Concordia (Purple? Indigo?)
Questioning Mike's choice for Green!
Relly Nick
After the water bottle scandal
For shame
Jimmy is getting paid off Mike
This is maybe not the best, but I only have around 40 games in my collection
But I do have a few Bangers Boys!
Scythe for Beige in my collection
Blue - Underwater Cities
Yellow - Harmonies
Takenoko would fill one of those violet or indigo colors I suppose
Black - Solid Wood Cribbage from Cardinal...it comes in a black box
White - Welcome Back To The Dungeon
Red - Uno
Green - Monopoly Deal
Orange - No go, but honestly, the game I have the would have the most orangish color would be
A Feast For Odin - Feuerland
Great video! Quick half-baked idea/question? You guys played Codenames Duet using board games…do you think you could play a form of Hues and Cues using board games?
Mike started strong, but faded a bit. But Nick didn't do enough to catch up. Mike wins!
Another top notch video! This was a lot of fun to watch and play along with my own collection. I loved the debates about colour. Honestly, Mike won the first half of the draft and Nick won the second half. I appreciate Nick's drafting philosophy but at the end of the day, I'd rather have Mike's collection of games. From my own collection:
Red - Barcelona

Violet - Dinosaur Island
Black - Terracotta Army
White - The Great Wall
Beige - Wayfarers of the South Tigris

In conclusion: Stressful to watch. 10 out of 10. Can't wait for the next board game drafting video.
Mike had the best rainbow, but I love games on both lists. Hard to choose.
Really great vid! Draft is genius
I will just say that I feel like Mike's collection has a more cohesive rainbow profile. I feel Nick's indigo pick throws the look off a bit with all that black, and the violet has a lot of orange on that side. I think they're good picks, those box sides just muddy the rainbow a bit.
I did it with my collection, very fun to do :)
Red : Mosaic
Orange : Terraforming Mars; Ares Expedition
Yellow : Darwin's journey
Green : Tapestry
Blue : Comet
Purple : Concordia Venus
Violet/Pink : Galileo Project
Black : Final Girl
White : Raising Robots
Beige : Amerigo
P-S I will accept Kanban for white! But I prefer Nick rainbow, sorry Mike!
Thanks guys! I would say Windmill Valley covers the whole rainbow so you are done :-)
I had it 5/5 with the tie-breaker going to the game I would like to try the most (Gaia Project).
My picks...
Red: HEAT - Petal to the Metal
Orange: ThunderRoad
Yellow: (Yellow was the hardest) Railroad Ink Shining yellow.
Green: Green Team Wins
Blue: Brian Boru
Indigo: Kings of Israel
Violet: Settlers of Canaan
Black: Dark Tower (I was thinking Project L so you must have picked up on that Mike)
White: Formula D (Kanban EV is more white than LaGranja but I want to play LaGranja more!)
Beige: Ezra & Nehemiah
Bonus Brown: Banish the Snakes
Bonus Gray : Pillars of the Earth
Anyone know where Mike & Nick got the baskets for their small games on their racks?
Fun concept!
from my own collection:
R - The Bloody Inn
O - Terraforming Mars
Y - Everdell
G - Viticulture
B - Knarr
I - Tribes of the Wind
V - Eldritch Horror?
B - Distilled
W - Endless Winter
Beige - Beer and Bread
Nick won 🎉The more balanced collection does it for me.
The only thing I got from this video is that you guys need to livestream a color blindness test
Mike's stack looked more pleasing to the eye. But other guy's list (I don't know other guy's name somehow?!) has more games I want to play, and is a more well rounded collection. (Five tribes as orange really looks off on the rainbow, and wonderland's war should've maybe been filed under Black)

Beige: Le Havre
Missed opportunity in the video for Rainbow final pick, as many colors as possible: Flip 7 (Dat Holographic box)
I'll never forgive Jimmy for thumbs-upping Nucleum 😂
Red: bloody inn was a missed opp
Orange is Grand Austria Hotel or Western Legends, Kanban is White, Nick wins 7-6 quality picks
Nick is right on Nucleum, Mike is right on Kanban.
Interesting way to draft game😅
It's actually the first list you made I had easy time also doing myself
Red - Crusaders thy will be done
Orange - Mage Knight
Yellow - Wayfarer's of the south Tigris
Green - Altiplano
Blue - Lisboa (Tzolk'in was so close)
Purple - Concordia Venus
Pink - Pret a porter
Black - Skulk hollow
White - Undaunted (again, Kanban was so close)
Grey - Great Western Trail
Beige - Teotihuacan
My personal list would look something like thus 👌🌈
Red: Sushi Go!
Orange: ThunderRoad Vandetta
Yellow: Harmonies
Green: Ark Nova
Blue: Sea Salt and Paper
Indigo: Stella: Dixit Universe
Violet/Pink: Skull
Black: Hegemony
White: Flame Craft
Beige: Welcome To...
Bonus, Rainbow: Décorum
R - Architects of the West Kingdom
O - Western Legends(Big Box)
Y - Summer Camp
G - Point Salad
B - Toy Story Obstacles & Adventures
I - The Golden Ticket Game
V - Wisdom of Solomon
B - The Godfather: Corleone's Empire
W - Robinson Crusoe (collector box)
B - Welcome to
Not me yelling BURNCYCLE for Orange 😂
Horrified is my black, Rebel Princesses is my white.
Close, but I have to say Nick edged out Mike purely on content. Nick's games were better picks, but Mike utilized the rainbow better. ❤
Here’s mine
R - Red Rising
O - Terraforming Mars
Y - Huang
G - Photosynthesis
B - Starship Captains
I - Scout
V - Unsettled
B - Veiled Fate
W - Turing Machine
B - Lords of Baseball
Now I have to find a copy of Kanban EV to see what color the box is. It looked white to my old man eyes.
Just.. SAYING. Love this content, Brothers Smurf. :D. Watching now.
I can't with your colors 😄Nucleum is green - I have some of my games in rainbow order and Nucleum is green. And Kanban has a slight blue tint but I'd say it's white and since today I am clearly on Mike's side I'm going with his collection 😅
Playing Illusion WITH game boxes!
Tough choice between the two sets, especially with Thunder Road being in the other pile, but Nick wins this for me! (Just)
My picks would be
Freelancers (red)
Thunder Road: Vendetta Maximum Chrome (orange)
Alhambra (yellow)
The Wolves (green)
Foundations of Rome (blue)
Wonderlands War (indigo)
Skull (violet (kinda))
Distilled (black)
Cubitos (white)
Books of Time (white)
Sushi Go Party (beige)
The arguments over what colour a game is is wild - for me it's very much vibes based and I fully am with Mike on Kanban is white. Even if Kanban is tinged green/blue it's much more white than either of those colours, and similarly Nucleum has the vibe of green. I think overall I'd go with Mike's pile, but I think Nick's collection might have a little more of a rounded variety.
For me, from my collection, I'd probably have (to choose a fun but somewhat rounded collection):
- Red -> Age of Innovation
- Orange -> I genuinely don't own a really orange game, so I'm going to say Draftosaurus as it has a big orange T-Rex on front
- Yellow -> Fantastic Factories, again maybe a bit of a stretch, but it does have very prominent yellow rays on it
- Green -> Startups
- Blue -> Keep the Heroes Out!
- Indigo -> Leviathan Wilds
- Violet -> Daitoshi
- Black -> Keep the Heroes Out!: Boss Battles (but if I can sneakily bundle that with the base game, then instead I'd pick Final Girl)
- White -> Furnace (plus you can bundle it and the Interbellum expansion into the expansion box for sneaky extra content)
- Beige/Brown -> The White Castle (or Mysterium if we're not letting that be a beige game)
@condar15 i appreciate that you took the time to make your own. Sign me up for Keep The Heroes Out! Game gets no love from content creators, just the peons.
I think Mike’s collection wins this time
I want to pick Mike because of Viscounts and Thunder Road Vendetta... But I want to pick Nick because of Wonderlands War and Beer & Bread... Such a hard decision. But I think I'm going with Nick because Beer & Bread holds a very special place in my heart since it was one of the last games I played with my best friend before he passed away.
Ps. I really love your challenge videos! Thanks for all of the awesome content! 🫶🏻
Kanban EV is the whitest box of all time.
Green is the eye-catching color on Nucleum.
Love ya Nick, but I think Mikey takes this one. Great video!
Soooo, might be because I'm watching on my tiny phone screen, buuuuut... Mike is right on ALL the color debates. Nucleum is green, Prodigals Club is beige, and Kanban is the whitest box in existence! That said, Nick has the better collection.
Am I saying Mike is the better gamer but Nick is more fun? I didn't say that - you said that. Vote in the chat!
Mike has Thunderroad Vendetta..... he will nautrallly win.
The list from my collection would be
R - Mosaic
O - Terraforming Mara
Y - Habitats
G - Trolls and Princesses
B - Fields of Arle
I - Fantasy Realms
V - Dwellings of Eldervale
BLK - Golem
W - The Shipwreck Arcana
BGE - Onitama
Nick won IMO and Mike was robbed of Kanban EV for White. Distilled was the pick for Black IMO
How about picking a "rainbow" colored box game?
I am shocked Mike didn't go Wayfarers for yellow!
Ok, I'll bite. Draft the...
Royal (blue) The King's Dilemma
Amber (yellow) Tiny Epic Dinosaurs
Iris (violet) Floriferous
Navy (indigo) Captain Sonar
Brick (red) Barcelona
Oriole (orange) Wingspan
Wasabi (green) Sushi Go
I hear the term euro game a lot, but what does that mean? What characteristics classify a game as euro?
Very surprised castles of Burgundy big box didn't get chosen for blue!!
My RED would probably be Paladins, though the bloody inn was a close second
ORANGE would also be thunder road vendetta
YELLOW would probably be bananagrams
GREEN would be So Clover
BLUE would be Castles of Burgundy special edition
INDIGO: Of What's Left
VIOLET/PINK: Feudum!
Black: Arcs
White: isle of cats
Beige: Crokinole!!
Happy Pride!!! 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Hells yeah!
My choice would be:
R: Secret Identity
O: Terraforming Mars
Y: 6 Nimmt
G: Meadow
B: Brian Boru
I: Blood on the Clocktower
V: Anachrony
Bl: Nemesis
W: The Great Wall
Bg: Just one
this is a collection I would be proud of!
Im shocked that cascadia nor glen moore were picked for Blue 🤣
Out of all the games shown I have only played 5 Tribes. So picking Mike's rainbow picks.
My list is R-Blood Rage/O-Dixit/Y-Trekking through History/G-Ark Nova/Blu-Endless Winter/In-Meadow/Vi-Fractured Sky/Bla-Dune Imperium/W-Evolution(hard to pick due to color majority rules)/Br-Everdell
Fun to watch and Happy Holidays all
Mike wins. Kanban is an off-white but white nonetheless.
Rules? We don't need no stinking rules!
*pauses video and squints at collection* How many Mille Fiori do you have? and do you play them?
I'm with Nick on this one
Mikey by a mile for me!!!
Sorry Mike, but Nucleum is undeniably a brown box
Canopy is Green for me.
Beige is my favorite color of the rainbow.
Smallworld for purple!
Mikey... Mikey Mikey Mikey. I'm sorry but i cant give you this one. Nick has The Loop, one of my top 10 games and the only coop in the bunch. In light of that i will have to say the winner of this challenge is Jimmy, because neither of you have a game with polyominoes in it. Better luck next time boys
Kanban EV is definitely white
This is tough. I think mike won but it is close.
NICK!!!
Fliptown is orange
Kanban ev is definitely white
Kan ban is white. At least on my phone
Ha! This strikes me as a sign of board game content channel exhaustion. But I'll give you credit for ingenuity :) What will you two think of next?? TH-cam can't be satisfied, it demands constant new and fresh content longer than you can remain sane , we must be entertained!
Kanban counts as white
For me Mike wins just barely. Beer and Bread, La Granja, wonderlands war and Grand Austria hotel beat out Mike's picks for the specific colours IMO, but overall I would rather have Mike's 10 games. Sorry Nick!
Mike had it til Justin Bieber
Ok actually I still think Mike won
