"We saw Rodney play it and then we bought it." It's pretty much how I operate 🤣
Hhah great minds!!
They sell these cool metal hanging shelf things at ikea that split your cube in half and makes for a nice way to display two rows of small games on 1 shelf! Didn't know just how much I'd enjoy watching someone talked about their games. There's so many games out there I feel like we have just as many as you but only about 50% crossover lol.
It’s true!! It’s crazy how many games are on the BGG list. Thousands
Do you know what the ikea split shelf things are called by any chance Shawn?
We would totally buy shirts that say “we’ll get to it eventually” because we have more unplayed games than ones we’ve played
I feel like this is a merch idea we need to run with
When mind mgmt was pushed in further than the rest my ocd was yelling to fix it. Lol.
Great video!
Hahaha I hear you!
WOW. You two have the most beautiful board game collection display lol. We can learn a thing or two from yall haha
Thank you!!! We definitely could do better and not putting the games wherever, having some sort of structure haha
Really enjoyed watching this. After a certain amount of time I was trying to guess which games you had not played, vs the ones you've learnt the rules for but not played haha! Great content, thanks for the videos and tour!
Thanks for watching and commenting Tommy!! Glad you enjoyed it :)
I am excited to see how the setup changes as you move/ find a new place!! Loved the tour, I feel like the collection has grown so much! I don't know if you would want to, but it would be cool to do a small video tour of your painted miniatures Jeff! 😁
That’s a great idea!! I’ll plan that for the future for sure!
Yessss chaosssssss! And yes Gods Love Dinosaurs is so good! No one talks about that game!
Right?!?! So good!!! Agreed - it needs more love. Also yes - embrace the chaos train!
@@FostertheMeeple It's perfectly in that Calico line. Super simple rules, but the puzzle destroys your brain. Y'all rock
love your collection...very jealous...but i have 1 thing going for me and my small collection , as soon as i get a new game i play it right away 😁
Hahah definitely a silver lining!
Roll player adventure is great! It reminded me of the choose your own adventures books I read when I was a kid. My nostalgia meter went through the roof when I played it 😁
Those adventure books inside the box look incredible. I’m super excited
@@FostertheMeeple the quality of the game is amazing!
Boy oh boy, you guys certainly have your hands full when that game table finally comes in. Lots of campaign games to play. Looking forward to some play through a. Funny how we acquire all these games and they get the “haven’t played this one yet” description. There has got to be some psychologically reason for this. Cardboardfomophobia! The fear of missing out on a new game that you know will never get to the table…but you just need to have it on your shelf anyway.
Haha yes - we have a plan for all the campaign games though!! It’s gonna happen :)
Since you didn’t give “laying down” as an option I’m gonna assume that wasn’t your favorite. 😁
Honestly with the last few game haul videos I expected there to be more games somehow.
Haha fair!! There’s a lot though.
Absolutely love going through your videos. New subscriber, you remind me of my partner and myself
Thanks Justin!! Appreciate you being part of our communityb
Me and my wife just got into boardgaming a few months ago and your a huge inspiration my wife n I got a pad to write down games we want from your collection got to a point we were like well we need a new pad lol
Oh boy that’s a slippery slope!! Welcome to the hobby :) Thanks so much for watching!!
Lol if I were at your open house I would have to negotiate that the fridge, stove and board games as part of the asking price. 😂
I’m surprised they didn’t!
Love the collection! So many games that I want to add to my collection.
I totally understand the knee issues. Bending of the knees is not ideal.
I might not ever recover
@@FostertheMeeple I think I left mine in my 20s. 🤣
I took up a lot of your Halifax suggestions. We took a break at the Board Room Game Cafe. I picked up honey buzz and a mug while I was there. Thanks again for the suggestions.
Awesome Dennis!! Hope you had a great time! I wish we had more time to have come and said hi. Things are hectic right now with the house sale!
@@FostertheMeeple understandable. I will have to make sure to catch you guys at PAX this year.
@@dennisdonetti1675 yes please come say hi!
ah so, so many great game...so,so little time!
Ain’t that the truth!
Let me know when you start Aftermath because it has been on my shelf of opportunity for about six months! Excellent collection! Very good mix of party, light, mid-weight and heavy games!
Will do!! I’ve heard the rulebook is a bit of a nightmare. But hopefully we can navigate it
Great video! Your game room looks so cozy 🙂. I wouldn't mind letting apocalypse blow over in a place like that lol.
I couldn't help but noticing that you have trimmed (or swapped) a big part of your collection. Have you made a video with games that you had to let go? I love those almost as much as checking everyone else's collections. And is also very informative since you had games that I own and haven't played yet or that I wanted to add to mine.
Love your channel 🔥, your camera presence and chemistry is among the best I've seen in board game channels. Greetings from Buenos Aires!
Thanks so much!!
Most of the games that left the collection were Jamies brothers games - so they just went back to him. We’ve only actually culled a very very small amount of games over the last year
@@FostertheMeeple You're very welcome. Thank you back for such great content.
About the games, it makes sense now lol. If they were taken back I guess they were essentials, so they must be good.
Have a nice weekend, and a lot of gaming 🙂.
Fosterr~ Bravo- what a superb view-
Thank you!
you need another Tablenauts treatment before the move ;)
or just channel your inner Marie Kondo!
Never! We deny the cult of the cull
Hi, from Kentucky. Love the shirt.
Just pre-ordered my copy of Riftforce: Beyond today. It should ship in a couple of weeks I hope. I really like Riftforce.
My wife loves loves loves Mysterium Park too.
Awesome!!! Hope you enjoy it when it arrives!
"there might be some others floating around" I'm not even moving and is true of my games
We found way more than we anticipated in that closet
Awesome collection!
Thank you!
The baskets are great for smaller games. I have them in the small drawers of my table. Freat collection and many games I still need to play.
They were an amazing buy. Such a better option for storage
If you can play Cuba Libre and Twilight Struggle, you can play Star Wars Rebellion for sure!
Haha right?!? However, we were taught Cuba - made it much easier
This was fun! You guys really have a great collection, makes me want to start an Instagram or a blog or something so I can get some free games XD also cool jersey how come you have Art Monk’s framed from American football?
They used to be my favourite team! I have Ryan Kerrigan on the other side
I love me a good shelf tour.
Hope you enjoyed!! It’s a long one haha
Nice collection - How do you guys plan on packing your games so they don't get damaged in the move? We're making a big move ourselves soon...just lots of bubble wrap?
And we have the luxury of moving in multiple trips. So a lot are going to be safely tucked into our car and moved
“Gargoyles Awakening which is a game… about the Gargoyles” 😂
Next segment: Jamies blunt game reviews
@@FostertheMeeple featuring Jamie's Blunt? That's a Grammy nominee for sure.
Carnival of Monsters is one of three drafting games that were designed by RG around the same time ...Treasure Hunter and Bunny Kingdom are the other two games in that drafting trio! They never got the marketing/love that they deservedt!! Can't wait to see if you guys like Bunny Kingdom! There is a bgg post by Mr Garfield about it and it's a super interesting read!
God we really need to get bunny kingdom played!!
Another great video, thanks for sharing. You mentioned sleeving the cards to one of your games. What do you recommend sleeve wise? Are there any that don't make your cards so slippery and difficult to keep stacked?
I’ll be honest - I’m probably not the best person to ask. I just buy whatever is on sale haha
@@FostertheMeeple I thought you knew ALL about board games and board gamey things? Haha! I get it. Sounds like we have a similar purchasing strategy. I do appreciate the honesty. Take care and good luck with the move.
@@mlmattin thank you!
There are a few people who review card sleeves and I have a whole bunch of reviews on my channel as well as round-up videos of reviews for sleeves of various sizes. I also have a general "what to look for in card sleeves" video too, if any of that might help: th-cam.com/video/XE44Erv1UtU/w-d-xo.html
@@refreshdaemon I'll check it out. Thanks!
My fav part…
Jamie: “What? Am I gonna see Randy Jackson and NOT get his autograph?”
She was proud of herself for that quote!
great collection! now you just need tablenauts to come by and tell you what games you should cull ;) crossover!!! maybe after you move?
We are not cullers!
@@FostertheMeepleyet! ...it will happen...just you wait lol
Neva!!!
Do I see a new series on the channel? "We'll Get Around to It" (in which you play one of those games that you're dying to play...may I suggest that Episode 1 will be a playthrough of Blackout Hong Kong)? Nice collection! (and the video whips by when you watch it on 1.75 playback speed) 😀 P.S. I like a variety of standing / sitting / lying down, as long as you do a proper booger check before you do the standing parts. 🤣
Jamie just let me walk around with boogers in my nose
You may of covered it in another video, but what several games started your collection and made you want more?
Scythe, Arcadia Quest, Dino Island. Just to make a few!
Jamie likes to take the games out of the shelf and show them like it's a Price is Right showcase.
Or she was dusting them off. :)
Love to see such a well rounded collection and somebody else that loves Pandasaurus' Dinosaur X games, but you're not making it any easier for me :D
Here's me wondering whether or not I should get Dinosaur World, since I LOVE Dinosaur Island - but if I get World, will I play Island anymore? And now there's a new player on the block, so to speak, with you mentioning that the Rawr & Write nudged ahead of Dinosaur Island in your ranking... :D Oh well, I think that I'll for now settle for Dinosaur Island, try to get it to the table more often and once there's more room to store all our games :)
I think that’s good logic! What I will say about Dino World - is that it is HUGE. We have a big conference table and at three players it took every inch of that table.
@@FostertheMeeple Yeah, that's something that I've known. Knowing how big of a table space Dino Isle takes up and realizing that World only hogs up even more space, is a deterrent.
But knowing that I'll get more storage space sometime in the future when we get to move into a bigger house 1-3 years from now, is also the same time when we've got room for an even bigger gaming table than our dining table.
The game looks soooo cool, that it is a slight shame that it requires so much space. Oh and also, the expansions aren't available in Finland so that's also one thing that keeps me from gettin Dino World :D !
Great collection! Planning on getting Rescuing Robin Hood?
I’ve not heard of that!
How often do you play and how do you decide what to play each time?
We play almost every night. We don’t plan much, unless it’s something we need to do for content!
I feel like All You Can Board should drop in with commentary about this collection video.
Keep those two away!!!
36:00 SILVER BULLEEEEET!!!! 🤩
Famous Jamie moment.
Babylonia: don't judge a book by it's cover.
A few moments later....
Barrage: blah.
Hahaha this is the argument I use against her all the time
I’m surprised you don’t have dinosaur tea party considering your love of dinos! I haven’t played it yet but I got it after seeing it on AYCB
We are also surprised we don’t have it! Haha
You’ll have to get on it! Although I think stock might be an issue in Canada at the moment but I’m unsure. I’m super keen for you to cover the stardew valley board game on the channel. Can’t wait till I can play mine!
Jeff kept putting the games in different directions. Half the boxes face one way, the other half face the other way. OCD killing me.
Normally I wouldn’t - but we are moving so they are coming right back off the shelf soon!
Unmatched is my fav
It’s VERY good!
if you every play VAST on TTS, I'd love to learn! or others
have some on the move!
We don’t really play much on TTS - the physics engine saps a lot of enjoyment out of games for us
@@FostertheMeeple thank you for the reply! sorry for those experiences. I'll look out on discord to see I catch a game there with you two. Edit: have some FUN* on the move.
No Aeon's End....?
SACRILEEEEDGE !!! :D
Not yet!
@@FostertheMeeple hope remains then! :)
I live in Frankfort, I saw your sweatshirt and thought i would inquire if you live near me
We don’t - but our good friends over at tablenauts live in Frankfort! We’ve visited there.
You guys have endanger orphans?!... By far my sadest Kickstarter.
Yea we’ve heard this. Full transparency it was definitely bought more for the looks and components than the gameplay.
there was def a boogie there!
HAHAHA I KNOWWW. We were laughing so hard watching this back
What a cute couple. Looks like your having fun. Are you close to Kentucky? I’m in Knoxville.
We are on the east coast of Canada!
@@FostertheMeeple ahh yeah I saw in another video you mentioned Halifax. I lived in Main for a short time but that’s as far up North as I’ve been. Stay warm!
@@pecktec it’s been 90 Degrees F most of the week, could go for a cool down!
Devastated you haven't played Star Wars Rebellion yet, I want to buy it, but I need someone else to hold my hand.
Hahaha we plan to eventually I promise!
Did Rodney get you playing Cuba Libre?
He did!
When you’re showing the house do people comment on all the board games? haha
Haha none have. But we had technicians come in once and talked to me about board games for almost an hour. One wrote down suggestions for his daughter!
Anyone else wonder why Jeff has one sock on? lol
Hhahahahah I wish I had the answer to that question
I went on a long rant about Harvey, Leah, the Hot Air Balloon proposal and also Leah's unsupportive ex and my existential struggle on who to give the Mermaid Pendant to... and my friend Jamila gave me a blank stare and Rich was like, "Harvey was the other woman. Also: Andy was a lesbian in this game." To which I quipped, "Yes! Luscious Farm had the best peaches... and I"m not talking about the fruit!"
HA! I want to develop elaborate back stories for my character.
@@FostertheMeeple those Stardew Valley cut scenes haunt my dreams
you need to make your own incerts
Rebellion has given me some of my best gaming moments. Just sayin'.
I knowwww. Everyone says this haha! We need to play it
"won't have too many new games coming in..." Haha sure you won't.
Agreed. 100% agreed
Also: if you don't play Meadow soon... well, I don't know what I'll do, but it won't be pretty!
Now I kinda DONT wanna play it just to see how this plays out
@@FostertheMeeple don't go breakin my heart
60+ mins, lucky us
It’s alot of games!
All games are designed to be stored horizontally. :)
Is this true? That can’t be true
Great video thank you. Do you have a p.o. box?
We do not! Just a civic address
Jeff you are not old dude
Tell that to my knees!
