    Funny but I guessed your top 3 before you said them. I watch too many of your videos because they make me happy! Personally I would drop Caverna quite a bit because I always feel it's just Agricola with more stuff. Not a fan of either really. I would move At the Gates of Loyang, Nusfjord and Ora et Labora all ahead of Caverna. Play Ora more! It would be my #2. Right now LeHavre is my number one. I can't rank Feast for Odin yet because I've never gotten to play it! That will change this fall at a local convention I have signed up for then I can update my Uwe list. Thanks guys, another great video!!!

      Agreed on Agricola, Caverna is just a kitchen sink for me, with an overwhelming number of options on the board (just like Feast for Odin...), and no personal cards to fancy (those decks add amazing variability and fun).

    My first experience with Agricola wasn´t a good one. I didn´t like it. A few weeks later i borrowed the game to give it another chance, because so many people like it. Well, it´s not my game. I do like workerplacement games but i don´t like Agricola. Glad i borrowed it before i bought it.

      Agree! I think it's a bit too high on the list!
      Just kidding. I can't rank it compared to the others since it is the only Uwe Rosenberg game I've played. Enjoyed it initially but felt like the strategy was too proscribed / constrained in such a way that the only approach was to go after getting kids. Felt like there was so much I wanted to do and explore but the game never really let you. Anyway, not one of my favorite games and so haven't tried any others. Le Havre is the only one that I've had some interest in trying.

    Agricola is way too low! The drafting is just soooooo good in it, as you set your plans for the game right at the start.
    Feast, Agricola, Ora et Labora, Le Havre, Caverna, Glass Road would be my order for most of the games of his I've played. Still want to play several (Nusford, Hallertau, Fields of Arle), and many others also doesn't interest me.

      @yarondavidson6434 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That drafting is what brought it down for me originally, it just felt too significant. So the whole game almost turns into a 5 minutes heavy drafting game, followed by 1.5 hours of trying to finish up the scoring as efficiently as possible... 😛 Probably won't be the opinion I would have formed if I tried it first time these days, with a lot more experience with a lot more games, but that first impression kind of stuck.

    I really dislike Agricola. I can never do the action I want to do, and I never have the resources I need to do the other actions. I have only played it 3 times at three player but I never want to play it again.
    Feast is my #1 and Caverna is my #2. I really want to try Le Havre but no one in my game group has it and it is a bit too much for me to buy without trying it first.
    I don't really care for his tile laying games (with Feast being the exception) but I don't really care for most tile laying games.

    We really wanted to like Uwe Rosenbergs games, but: no. By coincidence we got Sagani and we really love it - for us it is a nice relaxing game after work and we play it quite often🎉 then we got Armonia and we didn ´t like it. We got Glassroad and this was ok, but the artwork: atrocious! Then we got Agricola and it was our most horrific experience 😮 it is so tied and it feels like really hard work to gain resources and feed your family. We want to play for fun and don ´t want have another hard work day after work😮 and the artwork - absolutely atrocious. After that experience we checked out (gained information, we didn ´t play them) some other games, but we weren ´t touched by them… we don ´t want to have the stress of feeding our families, we don ´t want to farm, we don ´t like biding mechanisms and we have enough tile laying games…. And I am not mentioning the artwork of many of the games 😮 We do like games which are nice to look at, which make a friendly appearance, and not creepy and spooky. A Feast for Odin seems really interesting and the artwork is nice 😉 , but we are not into heavy games, unfortunately that would be too much for us. I have seen some interviews with Uwe Rosenberg and he is such a nice person, we really wanted to like his games, but unfortunately his games are not for us😮

      I do enjoy Patchwork, but I have the app, so felt no reason to keep the physical game. Sagani (that third game you couldn't remember the name of) was my replacement for Nova Luna, but it got culled for too many games reasons. While I enjoyed Caverna as a game, the fiddly and time consuming set-up for it (finding and matching all those tiles to the boards) dragged it down for me. I enjoyed the game, but not enough to justify the work needed to set it up. I need to try Feast again at some point, I've only played it once so far and that was several years ago. Loyang and Reykholt felt one-note for me, and Agricola just felt mean (All Creatures was nice enough, though). Glass Road was fine, but I'm not really drawn to the whole resource wheel thing. Cottage Garden was okay, I felt it was strategically weak for a polyomino game (at least when compared to Patchwork) and I've enjoyed my time with Bohnanza, but felt done with it.
