I've always liked watching reviews with B roll in them better than other ones, so I figured I'd make sure to do that in my own channel whenever possible!
I have to admit that I really like your channel! You aren’t pushing products on us, you have your own opinions whether they are popular or not, and you are REALLY passionate about board gaming! Not fake or trying to be an over the top actress. (We can always tell) You are like the girl next door who can’t wait to show us her new game. Bravo!
That character you asked about from dice thrones is the shop keeper from Dice thrones adventures. After you complete a portal crawl you would visit her to upgrade your deck with more powerful cards or unique items. She isn't currently a playable character. Great list!
I guess I'll just have to get Dice Throne Adventures then! ;) It would be awesome if they could convert characters from that game over into the regular Dice throne! I've seen so many of them that have fantastic-looking designs!
Great list. 7 Wonders Duel is my favorite 2-player only game. We also enjoy Paris La Citie De La Lumiere and Patchwork, (a couple 2 player only games), which utilize polyomino tile placement and Codenames Duet. Paris has a head-to-head feel to it as you spend the first round placing tiles with your color (as well as a neutral color and your opponent's color) and drafting tiles and then the second round placing those tiles, but you can only place them covering your color and the neutral color. Any tiles leftover at the end of the game are negative points. You score points for having buildings next to street lamps and special abilities you pick up during the 2nd round as well. It can be frustrating when you set up an area in the first round to use for one of your shapes and then in the 2nd round your opponent steals that area (using the neutral color) and you have to change plans and maybe use a special ability to fix the issue. My wife and I also play a ton of multiplayer games at 2-player. Some of our other favorites are: Welcome To the Moon, Legendary Encounters Firefly, Meadow, Atlantis Rising, Spirit Island, Gloomhaven, and Wingspan (particularly with Asia expansion)
I've only heard of some of those games, so thank you for the suggestions! I'll definitely be putting them on my list! Paris La Citie De La Lumiere sounds like a ton of fun, is that the one by Devir?
My partner and I love two-player board games! Our most recent favorites are Smitten*, Glow*, Mini Rogue, Brew, Studies in Sorcery*, Boss Monster, and Dungeon Mayhem. Highly recommend! * these ones are great lullaby games
hey! you already passed a thousand subscribers much congrats! and I love that you don't constrain yourself to only 10 when doing top games of a certain category : )
I LOVE Castles of Burgundy. We've been playing it a ton lately at 2, but I included it in another video recently and didn't want to do a ton of repeating in this one. 7WD is such a great game, and I'll have to check out the pantheon expansion!!
Found and subscribed to your channel today. Great job on the video and these are solid recommendations. Thank you for including information about which games are more aggressive two player games. My wife tends to avoid playing those... Bunny Kingdom may have to wait for our boys to get a bit older to play.
A moje Top-10 gier na 2 graczy 2024’: 1. Etherfields 2. Star Wars: Rebelia 3. 7 Cudów Świata - Duel 4. Pagan 5. 51. Stan - Master Set 6. Neuroshima Hex 7. The Wonderful Kingdom 8. Unmatched 9. Radlands 10. Dracula vs Vanhelsing 😉
Bunny Kingdom has a wonderful 2 player drafting variant out there. (On BGG maybe) It makes the 2 player game our preferred way to play. Without the drafting variant it’s not the best at 2.
10:00 When we play Risk, my dad looks at the board and says, "Where can I cause the most trouble?" 😆 And takes more than half the world, but goes to bed early - one night, my sister "inherits" his territory to join with hers and creams us. It was brilliant.
Great video!!! Just one question about Trolls and Princess (it's in the corner 👀) because it's on my radar..it's good at 2 players??? Sorry for the Bad english 😅
I just found your channel and I love it so much I was wondering, I recently have gotten into collections board games and I’ve always wanted to review and show them off would there be like tips on starting a channel that revolves around such??
You know what? Jamie from @FostertheMeeple just made a fantastic video on this and I think she's probably puts it in better words than I can! th-cam.com/video/ynLO665qLFA/w-d-xo.html
Just discover your channel by Guime (bunny boom which I made a french review too). Love it! I just subscribe. Do you tried Sky Team? It's a 2 player board game where you have to make landing a plane. Pretty fun.
+1 sub from me! Your talk of bunny kingdom has me so interested in playing it lol I love sushi go party and primarily play two player games with the wife so loving this list thanks a ton in advance 🎉
Discovered you just today, I truly love your channel but other than that I love all your hoodies! The fourth wing one in the other video is just awesome and this one too 🤍🤍 could we know where did you buy it?
Thank you so much! Most of them are from Etsy! The ACOTAR and Fourth Wing sweatshirts are from the Etsy shop HaiYenHandmadeVN, the Eurogames sweatshirt is from Teebletop, and the beautiful day for board games sweatshirt is from EverythingAfterCo. All the rest of my sweatshirts, I make myself on my embroidery machine (including the one in this video)! :)
My wife isn't much into board games but there are a couple on this list I think I would like to get. Trails, Calico and Aquatica all look like great intro games. Thanks for the inspiration! I like seeing lists of more 'obscure' games, so your channel has been great for that! 🤘🏽
you make me wanna get Dice Throne every time you mention it in a video but i hate that the season boxes are sooo expensive. are there any 2-character boxes that you recommend most for someone who really enjoys complex (but fair) abilities?
Yes! I know my favorite characters for Season 2 are the Seraph and the Cursed Pirate, and I believe both of those boxes are pretty well-balanced (you can double check that on the boxes as well, since the characters have complexity ratings). From season 1: We really like the pyromancer and the Shadow Thief. The Paladin and the Ninja characters are also really good, but like the Seraph and the Cursed Pirate, they come in two different boxes. .
I see the words "top 10" and "games" so i click. Unfortunately, i saw bunny kingdom on sale snd didnt buy it so ill never be able to ourchase it since my brain will refuse to buying at a higher price.
I saw Bunny Kingdom of a huge sale on the last Amazon Prime Day and one before that as well (in the US, if that matters). I have found that Amazon usually repeats the same games on Prime Days so keep your eyes open.
We've always played them both identically. Autumn Harvest is like a standalone expansion, where you can play it all by itself, or you can add it to the tea dragon society.
Really love that you make the effort to include B roll of the games that you discuss, so many channels don''t. Thanks great vids.
I've always liked watching reviews with B roll in them better than other ones, so I figured I'd make sure to do that in my own channel whenever possible!

Thank you so much, that's really what I am at heart, and I'm so glad that comes across!
Thank you so much for this video! My wife and I have game nights but 2 player board games are kinda scarce. This list is awesome!
Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed watching!! :)

I absolutely love 7 Wonders Duel. It's one of my favourite board games of all time. Draftosaurus looks great. I'm going to have to look for that one ☺
I hope you enjoy it! And I know, 7 Wonders is the best! :)
I never really enjoyed the original 7 Wonders but was convinced to give Duel a try and it’s now one of our favourites.
Its so incredible how beautiful your channel is. There is rarely a channel with such a gorgeous intro and background so soon.
Thank you so much!

@AfterEvenfall Yes, it is the one by Devir.
I am enjoying the little backstories, good luck with Your channel!
Thank you so much!!
Lullaby games LOL, love that term, gonna use it now
My partner and I love two-player board games! Our most recent favorites are Smitten*, Glow*, Mini Rogue, Brew, Studies in Sorcery*, Boss Monster, and Dungeon Mayhem. Highly recommend!
* these ones are great lullaby games
Thanks for sharing!! I haven't heard of most of those, I need to take a look at them!
Just discovered your channel and it’s nice to see games that are a bit different to what everyone else is talking about.
hey! you already passed a thousand subscribers much congrats! and I love that you don't constrain yourself to only 10 when doing top games of a certain category : )
Thank you! And how can I when there are so many great games out there?! 😉
Great games! Good luck for your channel to grow up and up👍
Thank you!! :)
This video was perfect!
I love how you talked about each game and showed the board game and items in it!
I just subscribed.
Thank you so much!
Just came across your channel and I love the quality of your content! Keep up the great work! By the way, Sky Team is my favourite two player game 😊
Thank you so much, that means a ton to me! And I’ll have to add it to my list!!
Taking a date to a board game cafe only to realize the only board games I play are 3+ player games💀 you’re a lifesaver
Haha I'm so glad I could help!
Castles of Burgundy is our go to week night game for 2 under an hour. We played the heck out of 7WD, pantheon helped alot with hetting 150+ plays in.
I LOVE Castles of Burgundy. We've been playing it a ton lately at 2, but I included it in another video recently and didn't want to do a ton of repeating in this one. 7WD is such a great game, and I'll have to check out the pantheon expansion!!
Heard nothing but good things about Empires of the North. And it is ADORABLE. Must have!
Imperial Settlers (classic, not the north one) is also worth playing imo. Thanks for the video!
Good to know, I'll have to check it out!! :)
Found and subscribed to your channel today. Great job on the video and these are solid recommendations. Thank you for including information about which games are more aggressive two player games.

@@AfterEvenfallthanks so awesome 😱😱
Found your channel yesterday and I’m already thinking of my chill games as Lullaby Games. Great content.
Love the shots of thr games set up
Glad you like them!
Bunny Kingdom has a wonderful 2 player drafting variant out there. (On BGG maybe)
It makes the 2 player game our preferred way to play.
Without the drafting variant it’s not the best at 2.
Excellent taste is games!! Solid Reccomendations!
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you so much!
Great list. Have you tried Targi? It is my favourite two player game.
I haven’t! I’ll have to take a look at it!
The mystery character is the "Shopkeeper" for the loot table in Dice Thrones: Adventures. Non playable.
Bummer, she looks like she'd be a cool character!
Wow! your set up is so beautiful! 😲😲💖💖
And also, thanks for this video because I really needed some suggestions about game for 2
10:00 When we play Risk, my dad looks at the board and says, "Where can I cause the most trouble?" 😆 And takes more than half the world, but goes to bed early - one night, my sister "inherits" his territory to join with hers and creams us. It was brilliant.
That sounds hilarious! I love family board game stories!!
Love it. Sounds like you have an amazing mother!!!
🤣
We really love Ancient knowledge at 2
I'll have to check that one out!
Great video!!!
Just one question about Trolls and Princess (it's in the corner 👀) because it's on my radar..it's good at 2 players??? Sorry for the Bad english 😅
You’re good! I honestly think trolls and princesses plays best at two! Any more than that and the game is really long :)
I just found your channel and I love it so much I was wondering, I recently have gotten into collections board games and I’ve always wanted to review and show them off would there be like tips on starting a channel that revolves around such??

All I'm saying, I'm not seeing Twilight Imperium 🤔🤔 but this is a great video! Thank you!!
Haha I'll admit I have yet to play it, but once I do I'm sure it will get up there! ;)
Just discover your channel by Guime (bunny boom which I made a french review too). Love it! I just subscribe. Do you tried Sky Team? It's a 2 player board game where you have to make landing a plane. Pretty fun.

I'm so glad you enjoy what you've seen and hopefully we can get another gamer out of your wife, we need more in the hobby! 😉
Hey, I play dice throne a ton. That is not a character and will likely not be :( I believe it is the shopkeeper of the campaign version of DT dungeons
Is the tea dragon game two player only?
It is 2-5 (if you own both games--if you only own 1 it is 2-4)
you make me wanna get Dice Throne every time you mention it in a video but i hate that the season boxes are sooo expensive. are there any 2-character boxes that you recommend most for someone who really enjoys complex (but fair) abilities?

@@AfterEvenfall thank you so much!
Really enjoying your videos, great job on everything! And that sweater is gorgeous, would you mind sharing where it’s from? 😊
Thank you so much! I actually made the sweater myself! :)
Ooh! It’s lovely! You could sell it as merch, I’d order one straight away! 😍
That's a great idea, thank you so much!
Great video, thx!!!
Off topic but where did you get your crew neck? 😅 TIA!
Haha no problem! I actually made it with my embroidery machine!
just a suggestion...your sound output levels during the video are kinda low, while the intro is SUPER loud. it would be nice to adjust the intro ;)
I just did on my more recent video, but thank you so much for letting me know! I appreciate any feedback a ton!
I see the words "top 10" and "games" so i click. Unfortunately, i saw bunny kingdom on sale snd didnt buy it so ill never be able to ourchase it since my brain will refuse to buying at a higher price.
Haha that's a bummer, it's such a fun game!
I saw Bunny Kingdom of a huge sale on the last Amazon Prime Day and one before that as well (in the US, if that matters). I have found that Amazon usually repeats the same games on Prime Days so keep your eyes open.
love the content, love your sweater, where can i get one for my fiance??
Thank you! I actually made the sweater myself, but I'm so glad you like it!
My gf really likes radiant offline battle arena and when we feel like chilling, we play the mind
Hate drafting runs deep in your family 10:10
Haha you could definitely say that
How does it compare to the other tea dragon game?
We've always played them both identically. Autumn Harvest is like a standalone expansion, where you can play it all by itself, or you can add it to the tea dragon society.
Your husband has won the lottery.... 🙂
Cool he can afford more board games then
Creepy comment
I don’t see a ring on her finger…
@@Gshantyshe said “my husband” in the first minute.
@@TheSludgeManexactly what I was thinking. Unfortunately this is the internet.
Over🎁 💖😗
You keep calling your man "husband" but where's your ring tho ? 😁
I haven't worn it in years, since it used to scratch me a ton
Haha now I see, Anyway good list of games. I would add sea salt and paper, Watergate and paleo 😊
