I really like this topic as a 5-6th year watching. Tom did these solo in the past; hearing the crossovers & lack of cult of the new is entertaining.
Agricola (just putting my favorite games individually to see which get the thumbs)
Agricola is still one of my all time favorites! Would definitely make my top 10 'A' games.
Acquire is one game that holds up after 50 years.
Yes, the most glaring omission for me too.
Yeah, it’d maybe be in my top 20. I don’t think it’s quite as robust as you seem to, it can easily hose players.
Ark Nova is my number 1!
Akropolis is my most played board game that starts with A.
Awkward Guests indeed: my favorite from the A games I own.
And I just noticed in this video, although it has been around for some time now: I love that the time signatures in the separator jingles correspond to the numbers themselves! (Starting with number 9, that is) That’s a really, really cool detail!
Chris is so wonderfully witty.
Ok this was a lot more interesting than I imagined! Glad you guys are doing this and talking about more games :)
Alhambra. I play this a lot on BGA too.
My top 5 that start with “A”
5) Altiplano
4) Alhambra
3) Agricola
2) Ark Nova
1) Architects of the West Kingdom
Great list
Android: Netrunner not even mentioned?! :(
👍☹️
It's a fantastic game, but has a LOT of issues for a broad gaming audience.
1. Out of print.
2. Rules/Terms Heavy
3. Commitment - requires involved, knowledgeable players
Those hurdles are a lot to get over for a game among thousands of games.
@@chauveet Still best "A" game, so doesn't matter
@@Deokiev except, by virtue of it not being on anyone's list, it did matter.
Tom has absolutely played Netrunner.
Nice to see Adrenaline get a mention, it's very under-rated/under-appreciated. Great game. I remember the first time I played it with my old game group and warning them not to gang up on the same person (which was usually me), but they didn't listen and I was killed more than anyone else, but I won the game. :-) Very satisfying.
Azul: Queens Garden would be high up on my list. Air, Land and Sea, Aquamarine, All Star Draft and Arboretum are great, too!
We usually always have a piece of paper in a game box and record each of our family members’ high scores and cheer if someone beats their top or gets the highest score.
I picked up Adventure Land a few years ago based on Tom's recommendation. I've enjoyed it a bunch ever since.
Anachrony
YES
Arboretum
Fun list! My favorite “A” games are
1. Aeons End
2. Azul
3. Air Land & Sea
4. Arkham Horror the Card Game
5. All Time Wrestling
Honorable Mention: Animals in Espionage
3-way cross-over for Aquatica (#573 on BGG), but not one mention of Alchemists from anyone (#152 on BGG). Such an underrated game.
Great game!
Definitely my favourite A game.
Alchemists is a game I respect more than I love. I enjoy it and find it fun! But, it's not that high up for me. -Chris
@thedicetower Fair enough. It was a game that got me into the heavier side of the hobby, so I have a soft spot for it.
Scrubs reference during Amun Re!!!!
I hoped somebody would catch it.
I would have had Akropolis there :) cool list!
Age of Steam and Arkwright - Number 1 and 2 of all times for me personally
Azul

10. At the Gates of Loyang
9. Azul
8. Automania
7. Alice’s Garden
6. Animals on Board
5. Aquatica

3. Aristocracy

I’ve actually played enough games for this letter! 😂 Here’s my list:
Honourable mentions: Acquire, Agricola, Alhambra
10. Amsterdam
9. Argent: The Consortium
8. Azul: Queen’s Garden
7. Architects of the West Kingdom
6. Alubari

6. Architects of the West Kingdom
5. Apiary
4. Amerigo
3. Ark Nova

My top 5 As
5. Abyss
4. Adrenaline
3. Ascension tactics
2. Air land and sea
1. Ark nova
Came here for Abyss.
I'm totally with Chris about Agricola, "all creatures big and small" gives me all the best parts of Agricola in a fraction of the time and complexity. I got rid of normal Agricola, but this one will stay (until I find this big box edition maybe)
Archeology: The New Expedition
(The New Expedition)
No mention of the fantastic Acquire 😢
this is such a fun idea for a top 10 series.. looking forward for the rest of the alphabet
1. Arcadia Quest
2. Arkham Horror 2nd ed.
3. Age of Atlantis (Double A!)
4. Amsterdam
5. Anunnaki
Ave Caesar (Dicetree Games ed.)
I am shocked it wasn’t on Tom’s list!
Airlines Europe is criminally underrated.
Age of Dirt
Really nice family game, with a meeple tower and a love hut!
Azul: Summer Pavilion
Aquatica
Apiary is my #1
3. Aquatica
2. Above and Below
1. Azul.
Delivery is here with the pizza mmmmmmmmmm. Looks like it's gonna be a modern classic.
My to would be:
10 Agra, 9 Antike II, 8 Awkward Guests, 7 Ark Nova, 6 Ankh, 5 Agricola, 4 Alchemists, 3 Architects of the West Kingdom, 2 Aquatica, and 1 Argent: the Consortium. Argent is also my overall #1 game too.
Argent is one of the best worker placement games ever made.
Look at these back Acquire, Automobile (Martin Wallace), Arboretum, Alein Frontier, Android Netrunner, so many omissions. 😮
We need a metagame in these where they try to explain their numer 10s with as many words starting with the letter as possible
I really love Aladdins Dragons (although it's called Morgenland in Dutch). We have Adventure Land as well (with expansion) and I would add Arcadia Quest.
A lot of crossover with you three but my top 5 favorite games that start with A are:
5. Ancient Terrible Things: Reawakened
4. Ark Nova
3. Adventure Tactics: Domianne's Tower
2. Atlantis Rising 2nd Edition
1. Aeon's End (+Astro Knights; like Chris I like AE a little more but giving AE my number 1 slot and AK my number 2 slot felt weird with how similar they are)
Honorable mentions to Ankh: Gods of Egypt and Azul
Wich are good/best for 2 player?
Architects of the West Kingdom
For me my easy number 1 is Android: Netrunner.
Really waiting for C, wanna see if a certain masterpiece from the year 2000 (no, not that one the other one) shows up
Catan?
1. Architects of the West Kingdom
2. Ancient Knowledge
3. Alhambra
4. Aquatica
5. Archeos Society
6. Azul (Stained Glass of Sintra)
7. Akropolis
8. Adrenaline
9. Aeon's End
10. Amul
Top 5 games that I'm interested in playing at some point are Abyss, Amun-Re, Apiary, Ark Nova and Atlantis Rising. Other games that I've liked include Agricola, Arboretum, A.R.T. Project and Awkward Guests, which all could potentially have a chance at appearing there somewhere if I had played them more and knew them better.
A-Z - great idea this will be fun
Asara comes in at 4 or 5 for me. Get the most of something (like Alhambra except towers instead of buildings) and uses cards as workers. Kramer & Kiesling.
This one was hard to narrow down to 10! Mine would be:
1. Axis & Allies
2. Apiary
3. Alice is Missing
4. Ancient Knowledge
5. Age of War
6. Aqua Garden
7. Abyss
8. The Alpha
9. Alma Matter
10. Arcane Academy
i really like the cover of Automania
I thought this would be harder, but then there were enough of "A" games I enjoy to make myself a valid top 5 (after that, it's more iffy) so they are:
5. Abomination: Heir of Frankenstein
4. Ark Nova
3. Anno 1800
2. Alchemists
1. Anachrony
Trying to do my own list while they go through I thought I would struggle to get 10 but in the end I had heaps.
Azul, Ark Nova, Arkham Horror 2e, Aquatica, Age of Wonders planetfall, Alhambra, architects of the west kingdom , asara, asking for trobils, artemis project.
My top 10 for those interested:
10. Agemonia
9. Arkham Horror 2E
8. Apiary
7. Aeons End
6.Age of Innovation
5.Alchemists
4.Anno 1800: The Board Game
3.Archipelago
2. Ark Nova
1. Anachrony
Honorable mentions to ARCS...just have not had enough time to dive into campaign expansion, but have a feeling it will break onto this list.
Ark Nova would be an easy #1 for me.
Ankh, Agricola and Azul are the only ones that come to mind
I still think Automania should be redone with realistic art that mimics popular car magazine styles. Car and Driver, Road & Track, Motor Trend, etc.
My top 25:
25. Age of Empires III
24. Awkward Guest
23. Apiary
22. Akropolis
21. Age of Steam
20. Arboretum
19. After the Empire
18. Age of Innovation
17. Atlantis Rising (Second Edition)
16. Anno 1800
15. Aquatica
14. Android: Netrunner
13. Arkham Horror
12. Amerigo
11. A Game of Thrones (Second Edition)
10. Abyss
09. Ankh: Gods of Egypt
08. Aeon's End
07. Agricola
06. Architects of the West Kingdom
05. Azul
04. Arkham Horror: The Card Game
03. Anachrony
02. A Feast for Odin
01. Ark Nova
No Agemonia? Kinda surprised
Advance to Boardwalk
Alien frontiers is up there on my list
In real life, a red face indicates anger.
I kind of love this idea! I'm surprised no ones done it before
@@larryh4017 it’s actually been done by other content creators. However nobody does it as well as the DT!
After The Empire!
Hooch IS crazy!
I only have 9 rated games that start with A but how I would rank them is:
1. Atlantis Rising (2nd Edition)
2. Agricola
3. Architects of the West Kingdom
4. Azul: Stained Glass of Sintra
5. Among the Stars
6. Android: Netrunner
7. Age of War
8. Attacktix
9. Apples to Apples
I am shocked Anachrony was completely shunned. Blasphemy
Animals in Espionge. On my top ten A games
Anachrony, Amerigo,, Altiplano
Agemonia
Sounds like Awkward Guests needs a Catchupalooza
Abomination, in the shorter and more streamlined second edition.
high score in scrabble and highest point in 1 turn and or 1 word score wrote down in lid.
...I'm gonna pull out Aladdin's Dragons at the retreat just to see if you put a chiclet in it...
Lol this top ten. Cant wait for the next 23 letters of top ten. Then we can do numbers.
NOOOOOOOOOOO! THEY REMOVED THE WORM BUCKET 😭
Overlooked gems:
Amul: a completely underrated card drafting game
AEGIS: Combining robots!
Around the world in 80 days: simple but great family game.
Arkham horror lcg
Age of Innovation
5. Attack!
4. Age of Renaissance
3. Air Baron
2. Adel Verflichtet (renamed Hoity Toity)
1. Advanced Civilization
