Honestly, I'm not sure what you expected, every single dog I've ever had takes you being on the floor as cuddle/play time. They're both adorable, and good commitment to the bit despite that big old thunk I heard which I assume was your hip XP
Love you guys, but I had to say this. No Arkham horror, Marvel champions, or Lord of the Rings LCGs? Marvel champions in particular is rated so high on BGG. Then if you look at the best solo games of all time, those three games mentioned above are 2nd 3rd and 4th! Did y’all declare war on Fantasy Flight Games lol😂?
I love that cribbage is the number one because of all your wonderful core memories growing up. Playing games with your kids does matter. I'd love to see a casual list of games. You can be social with games that are easy to play while having chatting ,eating, and snacking time with friends.
Res Arcana is a fave of ours, just love it and the expansions are fun. We also like Radlands but that has dropped off for us, I wish they did some expansions or a sequel or something but they said it's standalone 🤷🏻 don't get why
I feel like each subscribe cut away is getting more unhinged… is Nick going to be trapped in the flat land of the table next? Will Pippin abseil in to steal a game? Find out next week on Submit to the Murphs
Hero/Star Realms - loads of content and expansions for very little money, comparatively. I love Res Arcana, but in terms of VFM, Star Realms Frontiers is almost impossible to beat.
Builders of decks? * Bob the Builder * Tool Time Tim * Weird Al in Handy video parody. * Fix It Felix Jr. * Bob Vila * The Murphs if a game requires remodeling of a backyard. * Mike Rowe. * The Mythbusters crew * Jesus: noted carpenter. 🥷
OMG LETS GOOOOOOOOOO!!!🎉 You guys actually saw my comment and made the video?!?! Thank you sooooo much! Can’t wait to watch this! Also THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING SHOUT OUT🎉 I actually screamed with joy when my comment was on the screen 😂 My mom laughed at my reaction Edit: btw I’m trying out a new card game today! “Bears and Honey” It’s a tile placing strategic card game that I’m really looking forward to playing
You two recommended a card game called Point City ( I think it qualifies as a card game, I'm new to gaming and still unsure of all the categories) that my gf and I love to play, thanks!
Great list!! I have some games I’m going to have to go check out and The Bloody Inn has been on my wish list for a bit. A card game that I am really into right now is Skoventyr.
Love so many of these! Nick taught me IaWW at DTW 2023 and I’m in a Res Arcana with Mike now lol. Photograph is on my shelf of shame too. P.S. Big yes to Trick Taking video, been really trying to get into the genre.
Great picks! My top 10 would be: 10. Sea salt and paper 9. Star Wars : The Deckbuilding Game 8. Res Arcana 7. Disney Lorcana 6. Sushi Go Party 5. Arboretum 4. Radlands 3. Splendor 2. Earth 1. The Crew Mission Deep Sea
I typically don't like card games for some reason I haven't quite figured out yet, but The Bloody Inn is fantastic! I have the expansion but haven't tried it yet since I'm still very much enjoying the base game.
My favourite card game are: -Dale of merchants -res arcana -race for the galaxy -scout -seasons -earth -arboretum -the crew -regicide -shards of infinity
Love Scout. They also came out with a card only version still with scout and show etc but in card form instead of tokens. I have the original, but also just bought the other version at Target for $10! What a deal!!! Even for older people who have difficulty with board games, they can play this. We play this and cribbage with my parents who are in their 80s. I was lucky to find a 4 player cribbage board. Awesome list guys!!!❤
IMO, "Card Driven games" and "Card games" are still different. Tableau builders, engine builders and games where you collect resources to build cards just don't count for me. I really like Res Arcana, but to me its not really a "Card game". Cat in the Box should have made your list instead of anything from 10 to 6. The Game, The Mind, Velonimo are all Card games, 6 of your 10 on this list are just card based games. By your criteria here, Paladins otWK is a Card game, even Terraforming Mars almost qualifies. The Crew Deep Sea and Scout are my #1 and #2 Card games.
Big fan of many of the games on your list. And I always end up wishlisting stuff as you're talking about it. Really gotta check out It's a Wonderful World... Some additional picks: Point Salad is a good, quick game that's accessible and family-friendly. Oh My Goods! is excellent but a bit heavier. Bohnanza is great for higher player counts (plays great with 5-6).
hey there Brothers here's a topic suggestion for what I think could be a very cool video: top 10 games we haven't played but are extremely adamant to ever even trying ...... (and if you think this is a good idea could you please be sure to include summoners war 2nd edition? ... 😅)
My list would include: Saint Petersburg, Space Base, San Juan, Medici, Wingspan, Earth, Starship Catan, Star Realms, Cribbage, Mu and More, Legend of the Five Rings, Seventh Sea, and possibly Pinochle (double deck). I don't require that Top 10 be a base-10 thing. 8-) In no particular order and with the understanding that that list was off the top of my head.
Currently, 6 of my top 10 games are card games and that's an odd number to list(or is it?) so I'm going with it. 6 - Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition 5 - Knarr 4. Eminent Domain(how far you have fallen, sir. Get better scrub) 3. Earth 2) It's a Wonderful World 1) After Us
I love that (almost?) every time you show a cribbage board it's the one I grew up with. When I was working for Electronic Arts way back in the day, I was testing an online version of Cribbage with my mom (3,000 miles away) and I got the only 29 I've ever gotten in my life!
Hearts! It's a very interesting game. I like the idea of avoiding tricks instead of taking them. A more recent "version" of hearts is Rebel Princess, which is very fun and plays better than the original in a different player count. To wrap it up, my favorite kind of game is deduction. I love matching different information to get to the solution. In the genre (and using only cards to play), Sleuth is fantastic. It feels like it's always your turn, because every piece of information is valuable for solving the mystery and, even when it's not your turn, you have to pay attention to the questions and answers, because you can use them to cross reference with what you already know. A really cool game.
Thanks for the video! My husband and I have been playing cribbage a lot lately and I was trying to figure out why we have been playing it and not some of the more modern board games. I think you are right. It is something we can do while chatting and it’s not too taxing on the brain after a long day. Great casual game.
1 vote for top 10 trick taking games! your cribbage growing up is my Hearts and Zot (though we played cribbage too), and im having alot of fun hunting down modern trick taking games right now!
Cribbage!!! So good! I learned to play this with my dad when I was pretty young ... he used to always say to me, when he was going to win, "sadly now, there can be but one outcome." Lol. My husband and I taught our now 9 year old when she was around 6... her 3rd grade class is learning/playing every other Wednesday now too. It's been fun to share with her and make new memories. Nice to hear your stories surrounding cribbage. 🥰
Play Nine is a fun 2-6 player card game with a golf theme. Love Scout and I get the Cribbage nostalgia. I learned the game from my grandpa and before he passed I would meet up with him weekly to get a game in over my lunch hour.
I just learned cribbage at DTW. It was my biggest surprise. I loved how it's almost poker, but has these elements for a two player duel. I think i need to buy a nice set.
Strange card thing I encountered: I was in Oklahoma for a wedding, and we hit up a casino. I walk by a roulette table and the wheel was in a weird spot. The dealer then grabs two cards from a boot, scans them, and announces the number "the ball landed on." Turns out there some rule in OK that the only gambling allowed must be card-based. Even the slot machines display a poke hand in the lower corner.
In California we have a similar thing. At the casinos on the native American reserves, you’re not allowed to have dice games. So games like craps are done by flipping over two cards with die faces on them.
@@TheBrothersMurph Ha, no way. I'm in California, but I don't gamble. It's like the Diet Soda version of gambling. Now I'm imagining people playing D&D and the GM sliding a card to the player from a boot.
Here is my list although I could swap about 5 more games into this list. Just small boxes Dale of Merchants - Capital Lux - Scout - Campy Creatures - Valley of the Kings - Point Salad - Elephant Ball Balancing Act (from Japan) - Shards of Infinity - Cat Lady - Sushi Go
Favorite cards games include :poker, euchre, bridge, cribbage, solitaire, rummy, memory, free cell, and baccarat. Sadly I’ve never heard of any of these new ones, but I’ll give them a try. Thank you for the recommendations.
I just saw this and I am amazed and THRILLED that Cribbage was your number 1! As much as I enjoy modern card games, Cribbage is my favorite card game as well. I play it a lot (usually several games at once) on Board Game Arena too. What a wonderful choice!
Advanced Squad Leader I can play a new scenario every day for 19 YEARS.! and not play the same scenario twice. Name Me a card game you can do that with? Name a game that has more detail?
cannot recommend dungeon mayhem enough. its a super simplified version of hearthstone, which is already a super simplified version of other TCGs, you dont need to collect any cards. ive seen parents pick it up so easily
Mike coming in hard on the dicechuckers and Nick coming in hard on the lurkers... I'm into this level of playful aggression. And our #1 card game is definitely Koi koi (because we love all things Japanese lol)
The two card games that have the nostalgia factor for me are Uno and Euchre. I played Uno with my family and pretty much everyone in my small home town played Euchre.
How about that Merry and Pippin cameo? “Oh hey you’re at our level! You wanna hang out? You tryna party?”
Honestly, I'm not sure what you expected, every single dog I've ever had takes you being on the floor as cuddle/play time. They're both adorable, and good commitment to the bit despite that big old thunk I heard which I assume was your hip XP
Is there a subscription tier where we pay for MOAR PUPPERS PLS?
Any females over there
Please tell me the under-the-table bit was inspired by Wayne's World. Party on, Murph!
Love you guys, but I had to say this. No Arkham horror, Marvel champions, or Lord of the Rings LCGs? Marvel champions in particular is rated so high on BGG. Then if you look at the best solo games of all time, those three games mentioned above are 2nd 3rd and 4th! Did y’all declare war on Fantasy Flight Games lol😂?
It's A Wonderful World and Cribbage as 2 & 1! I will now take every opinion you have as Gospel truth.
LOVE cribbage! Where did you get that board that was looked like a landscape walk through some woods?
I love that cribbage is the number one because of all your wonderful core memories growing up. Playing games with your kids does matter.
I'd love to see a casual list of games. You can be social with games that are easy to play while having chatting ,eating, and snacking time with friends.
Oooo good idea for a list!
I looooove cribbage! Need to play with you guys sometime!
I know it's just a top 10 list, but Bohnanza should have been on it. Bohnanza in my opinion is second only to Scout
Yes ☝️
Thumbs up for a trick taking list
I would love to see it ascending from intro to master.
Res Arcana is a fave of ours, just love it and the expansions are fun. We also like Radlands but that has dropped off for us, I wish they did some expansions or a sequel or something but they said it's standalone 🤷🏻 don't get why
I feel like each subscribe cut away is getting more unhinged… is Nick going to be trapped in the flat land of the table next? Will Pippin abseil in to steal a game? Find out next week on Submit to the Murphs
As funny as 'someone hella old' is for the inventor of cribbage, what's equally funny (and unfortunate) is the dude's actual name.
Hero/Star Realms - loads of content and expansions for very little money, comparatively. I love Res Arcana, but in terms of VFM, Star Realms Frontiers is almost impossible to beat.
Thanks for the list, I have huge love for Unfair, would you have excluded it due to the components?
I love that Cribbage is made by "someone hella old" 😂
I mean, where’s the lie?
@TheBrothersMurph There isn't. You are absolutely right lol
Radlands. Have you guys not played this yet??

Praise Be, Archeology!
(The New Expedition)
Chad Kroger sporting Mike looking like that Bezier thug is worth two likes.
Cribbage is fantastic. What is that cribbage board in the video? Looks great. Thanks
You two recommended a card game called Point City ( I think it qualifies as a card game, I'm new to gaming and still unsure of all the categories) that my gf and I love to play, thanks!
Man I really wish I could get a copy of The Bloody Inn. Seems like it won’t go sale again
Great picks! You guys need to play Stool Pigeon by Barrel Aged Games, it’s incredible!!! 🐦 💩
Great list!! I have some games I’m going to have to go check out and The Bloody Inn has been on my wish list for a bit. A card game that I am really into right now is Skoventyr.
Def check out The Bloody Inn!
A big 1 in our house and with our extended family, is Sequence. Great, chill game, ans yes it has a board but its very card based. Great video guys!
Still haven’t played Sequence
I definitely want to see top 10 trick taking games but also Top 10 games with a standard deck of cards
I'm surprised the Imperium series classic/legends/horizons was not mentioned
Crushed it at 14:47. GREAT photograph!!! ;)
Dang!!! Thank you so much!!
Love so many of these! Nick taught me IaWW at DTW 2023 and I’m in a Res Arcana with Mike now lol. Photograph is on my shelf of shame too.
P.S. Big yes to Trick Taking video, been really trying to get into the genre.
Go for the trick-taking games list please!!! I love your content
NOTHING in board games feels more board games than holding a hand of cards. I say that completely unironically.
Great list... I also like:
Sea Salt and Paper because WE DO TALK ABOUT BRUNO 🤣
After the VIrus which is one ugly fun game
Sea Salt and Paper definitely could have made the list!
Arkham Horror
IWW
Res Arcana
Pagan
Gozu X
War of the ring card game
Great selection, I'd really need to play Cribbage and teach you Belotte Coinchée at some point :)
Great picks! My top 10 would be:
10. Sea salt and paper
9. Star Wars : The Deckbuilding Game
8. Res Arcana
7. Disney Lorcana
6. Sushi Go Party
5. Arboretum
4. Radlands
3. Splendor

Bangers!
I typically don't like card games for some reason I haven't quite figured out yet, but The Bloody Inn is fantastic! I have the expansion but haven't tried it yet since I'm still very much enjoying the base game.
We also just got the expansion and haven’t had played it yet, seems like it adds some good stuff!
Great list guys 🎉 BLOODY INN is my favorite game. Happy it made this list

My favourite card game are:
-Dale of merchants

-race for the galaxy
-scout
-seasons
-earth
-arboretum
-the crew
-regicide
-shards of infinity
Where’s that cribbage board from
Great picks.
While Bloody Inn should be higher, Cribbage is right where it belongs.
Just replayed The Bloody Inn this last weekend, such a banger
I didn’t care for the Crew for I’d love to see a top 10 trick taking games. I’ve jumped on the trick taking wagon as of late.
Yeah we’ll do that list at some point for sure
Love Scout. They also came out with a card only version still with scout and show etc but in card form instead of tokens. I have the original, but also just bought the other version at Target for $10! What a deal!!! Even for older people who have difficulty with board games, they can play this. We play this and cribbage with my parents who are in their 80s. I was lucky to find a 4 player cribbage board. Awesome list guys!!!❤
I love the Bloody Inn! It's a fun solo game also.
I still haven’t played it solo, though I know Maggie from ThinkerThemer LOVES it solo
I want to see a Trick Taking list. Do it. Please and Thank You
Canasta! I’ve been playing with my grad school friends since the mid 00’s!
You guys gotta tell us where that walking path cribbage board came from. It's awesome!
Fantasy Realms, San Juan
I love you guys, I can see your passion and your dedication in every video. You deserve the best.
Greetings from Italy❤
No Netrunner, the greatest card game of all time??? :D
We haven’t played it :(((
What!? The old stuff from FFG is mostly out of stock but the fan run sets from Nisei/Null Signal are fantastic too!@@TheBrothersMurph
Whooooa that’s a shirt from my local game cafe in Nova Scotia!!

Some additional picks:
Point Salad is a good, quick game that's accessible and family-friendly.
Oh My Goods! is excellent but a bit heavier.
Bohnanza is great for higher player counts (plays great with 5-6).
I have had The Crew Mission Deap Sea for like 2 years and still haven't been able to play it.
Bummer! Maybe play it on BGA?
hey there Brothers here's a topic suggestion for what I think could be a very cool video: top 10 games we haven't played but are extremely adamant to ever even trying ......
(and if you think this is a good idea could you please be sure to include summoners war 2nd edition? ... 😅)
Excellent choices !!!
I really like Ancient knowledge and knarr right now play them every week
I'll add 4 more....Race for the Galaxy, Vale of Eternity, Fort, and for a great trick taking game....St. Patrick.
Three words for you...
Seven wonders duel
For classic card games I love Casino.
My list would include: Saint Petersburg, Space Base, San Juan, Medici, Wingspan, Earth, Starship Catan, Star Realms, Cribbage, Mu and More, Legend of the Five Rings, Seventh Sea, and possibly Pinochle (double deck). I don't require that Top 10 be a base-10 thing. 8-)
In no particular order and with the understanding that that list was off the top of my head.
Currently, 6 of my top 10 games are card games and that's an odd number to list(or is it?) so I'm going with it.
6 - Terraforming Mars Ares Expedition
5 - Knarr
4. Eminent Domain(how far you have fallen, sir. Get better scrub)
3. Earth
2) It's a Wonderful World
1) After Us
Res Arcana is one of my favorites. Recently discovered Fleet: Wharfside and Deadwood 1876.
Is this a bad time to admit I've never played Cribbage? 😬😂 -Doolin
Just tried Cribbage for the 1st time recently and was surprised how good it is!
It’s sooooooo good!
I love that (almost?) every time you show a cribbage board it's the one I grew up with.
When I was working for Electronic Arts way back in the day, I was testing an online version of Cribbage with my mom (3,000 miles away) and I got the only 29 I've ever gotten in my life!
I'm so glad that you guys enjoy Wind The Film. It does melt your brain!
Hearts! It's a very interesting game. I like the idea of avoiding tricks instead of taking them. A more recent "version" of hearts is Rebel Princess, which is very fun and plays better than the original in a different player count. To wrap it up, my favorite kind of game is deduction.

this video hits so many sweet spots of mine

Surprised that Ares Expedition wasn’t on here, as it’s basically just a card game
Unmatched forEvah!!!!
Don’t sleep on Love Letter. What an awesome card game.
Aussies! How have I never seen your dogs?
Yup! Couple of Aussie cuties!
Cribbage!!! So good! I learned to play this with my dad when I was pretty young ... he used to always say to me, when he was going to win, "sadly now, there can be but one outcome." Lol.
My husband and I taught our now 9 year old when she was around 6... her 3rd grade class is learning/playing every other Wednesday now too. It's been fun to share with her and make new memories. Nice to hear your stories surrounding cribbage. 🥰
TCG and CCG are their own separate category of games, they are not "card games"
Remind me what the C in TCG stands for again
@@TheBrothersMurphI love The Pokemon Trading Checkers Game.
Play Nine is a fun 2-6 player card game with a golf theme. Love Scout and I get the Cribbage nostalgia. I learned the game from my grandpa and before he passed I would meet up with him weekly to get a game in over my lunch hour.
No Millennium Blades? 😢
We like Millennium Blades, but it’s a game we only play like once every couple of years
LOVE your reason/explanation for your #1. It’s not about what you’re doing, it’s about spending time with friends and family.
I just learned cribbage at DTW. It was my biggest surprise. I loved how it's almost poker, but has these elements for a two player duel. I think i need to buy a nice set.
Hey James! You picked it up really quickly, and it was great getting to meet you at DTW.
@@charlesbrown8653 Was great to meet you! I did end up picking up a Cribbage set for myself. Thanks for Sea Salt & Paper too!
Strange card thing I encountered: I was in Oklahoma for a wedding, and we hit up a casino. I walk by a roulette table and the wheel was in a weird spot. The dealer then grabs two cards from a boot, scans them, and announces the number "the ball landed on."
Turns out there some rule in OK that the only gambling allowed must be card-based. Even the slot machines display a poke hand in the lower corner.
In California we have a similar thing. At the casinos on the native American reserves, you’re not allowed to have dice games. So games like craps are done by flipping over two cards with die faces on them.
@@TheBrothersMurph Ha, no way. I'm in California, but I don't gamble. It's like the Diet Soda version of gambling. Now I'm imagining people playing D&D and the GM sliding a card to the player from a boot.
Shocked to not see Bohnanza!
Cribbage!! Yes!! I love it!
Heck yeah LOVE cribbage!!
I grew up playing cribbage with grandparents and other older relatives, too, and I'm so thankful for it!
Okay, you get my subcribe - that was the best 'please subscribe' bit I've ever seen.
Ayyyye it worked! Thanks for subscribing!
So the next video is best dice games?
Agree 100% with cribbage!
Here is my list although I could swap about 5 more games into this list. Just small boxes
Dale of Merchants - Capital Lux - Scout - Campy Creatures - Valley of the Kings - Point Salad - Elephant Ball Balancing Act (from Japan) - Shards of Infinity - Cat Lady - Sushi Go
Favorite cards games include :poker, euchre, bridge, cribbage, solitaire, rummy, memory, free cell, and baccarat. Sadly I’ve never heard of any of these new ones, but I’ll give them a try. Thank you for the recommendations.
I just saw this and I am amazed and THRILLED that Cribbage was your number 1! As much as I enjoy modern card games, Cribbage is my favorite card game as well. I play it a lot (usually several games at once) on Board Game Arena too. What a wonderful choice!
Advanced Squad Leader I can play a new scenario every day for 19 YEARS.! and not play the same scenario twice. Name Me a card game you can do that with? Name a game that has more detail?
cannot recommend dungeon mayhem enough. its a super simplified version of hearthstone, which is already a super simplified version of other TCGs, you dont need to collect any cards. ive seen parents pick it up so easily
Anyone here know who i could contact about Takenoko board game? it had 37 green bamboo 27 of which were stumps and missing pink and yellow ones?
Mike coming in hard on the dicechuckers and Nick coming in hard on the lurkers... I'm into this level of playful aggression.
And our #1 card game is definitely Koi koi (because we love all things Japanese lol)
The two card games that have the nostalgia factor for me are Uno and Euchre. I played Uno with my family and pretty much everyone in my small home town played Euchre.
Cribbage is dope been playing since I was a kid. And the board always comes out at family bbq’s. Can play for hours at a time and never get bored
Magic is not number one 🫠
