These games aren't even in the Top 10, they must be trash. But you know what's not trash? Our Kickstarter. You should probably check it out:www.kickstarter.com/projects/thebrothersmurph/the-brothers-murph-season-8-table-fables-and-unmatched

The cut from pulling the phone off the mug killed me loll You guys are awesome!

My jaw dropped when Mike revealed where Feast For Odin is now on his list. 😂 Great list gents. Here are my 20 to 11: 20 - Return to Dark Tower 19 - Gloomhaven 18 - Agemonia 17 - Lost Ruins of Arnak 16 - Viscounts of the West Kingdom 15 - Knarr 14 - Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion 13 - Raiders of the North Sea 12 - Too Many Bones 11 - Star Wars: Imperial Assault

20 Raiders of the North Sea 19 Steampunk Rally 18 Cribbage 17 Pandemic 16 Earth 15 Splendor 14 Everdell 13 Spirit Island 12 Western Legends 11 Paladins of the West Kingdom

Y'all are my comfort channel fr. Love putting your vids on when I work from home! I'm also personally offended AffO is so low but all good

20: Scythe 19: Kites 18: Dungeon Petz 17: Dune: Imperium 16: Scout 15: The Bloody Inn 14: A Feast for Odin 13: Cascadia 12: Planet Unknown 11: Wandering Towers Also I’m shook… shook… AFFO fell out so hard.. wow I’m excited to see the next games that knocked it out. Also I just got Paint the Roses Deluxe yesterday and I’m pumped to try it

11 Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small 12 Sea Salt & Paper 13 Cyberion 14 Stellarion 15 Jump Drive 16 Caverna: Cave vs Cave 17 Tapestry 18 Terraforming Mars 19 Gaia Project 20 Point Salad This suffers from recency bias a bit. I don't think Cyberion or Stellarion will hold those positions, but the others are pretty solid in their place.

Lol nice pic choice for Nick’s grand austria hotel 😂 the powdered nose caught my attention before the lines did!

Love your picks, love these lists! My 20-11: 20 Architects of the West Kingdom 19 Lost Ruins of Arnak 18 Jaws 17 Galaxy Trucker 16 Hadrian's Wall 15 Star Wars: Rebellion 14 Nemesis 13 Fleet: The Dice Game (Second Edition) 12 Sleeping Gods 11 Furnace

My number 14 needs the caveat that it doesn't technically exist yet. I've helped playtest the prototype a ton though and I really like it. 20. So Clover! 19. Lost Cities 18. Tiny Epic Pirates 17. Downforce 16. Ticket to Ride (series, France is my favorite) 15. Celestia 14. Helionox: Chronicles 13. Century: Eastern Wonders 12. Star Realms 11. Automobiles

Ok honestly AFFO dropping out of Mikes top 10 after being #1 for so long literally blew my mind hahaha Also, I really hope you guys get a chance to play the Lets Waltz expansion someday. The asymmetric player powers and the ballroom expansion are one of those “I’ll never go back” additions. Plus the solo absolutely rules too. One day!

20 : Castles of Burgundy 19 : Wavelenght 18 : Project L 17 : Century : Spice road 16 : Earth 15 : Obsession 14 : Everdell 13 : Dominion 12 : Clank! 11 : Cascadia

Straight BANGERS on this list. What a SHAKEUP in the top 20. Can't wait to see the rest!

Nice to see you two still appreciating Grand Austria Hotel. I feel sorry for those people who play it once and have one of those occasional suffer games and then never play it again. My partner and I, who have played it dozens of times and know the flow of it, even had one of those recently when an extreme few ones and twos were rolled over the course of the game. Wasn't fun, we didn't even do end scoring, just packed it up. At least it sucked for both of us. You definitely don't want to be the one person having a suffer game while the other thrives. That hurts. Also cool to see Lisboa so high. What's so lovely about Lacerda's games is that although learning them is tough, the gameplay is so elegant and smooth. We're still waiting for the right time to learn and play The Gallerist, because we know it will be fun, we just need extra time and energy to get through the painful learning process.

My 20-11: 20. Barrage 19. Roll for the Galaxy 18. Hadrian's Wall 17. Gloomhaven 16. A Feast for Odin 15. Kingsburg 14. Libertalia 13. Five Tribes 12. Fury of Dracula 11. Ark Nova

20. Unsettled 19. Quadropolis 18. Evacuation 17. Blood Rage 16. Scythe 15. Iwari 14. Raiders of the North Sea 13. Pest 12. Dune: Imperium 11. Bruxelles 1893

Some more great ones here! I want to get Grand Austria Hotel so badly but I'm waiting to find the expansion available so that I can play it solo (which is how I'll get the most value out of it). Also interested in Great Western Trail: New Zealand and Shipwrights of the North Sea: Redux based on your descriptions and enthusiasm. 20. Ark Nova 19. The Great Wall 18. Twilight Imperium: 4th Edition 17. Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 16. Obsession 15. Parks 14. Nucleum 13. The Reckoners 12. The White Castle 11. Weather Machine

I just received king of 12 from Lucky Duck's Memorial day sale... You guys are the only reason it was even on my radar. Excited to give it a try!

King of 12, had it for a few months and just go let it to the table with my fam a week ago (4 players). Fun game I can see that it would get better and better the more you play with a group.

🤣 48:20 Whats up with the Grand Austria Hotel game cover image? 💊👃

Closest I’ve come to a True Crossover with one of you! My 20-11: 20- Cascadia 19- Blood Rage 18- Clank 17- Rising Sun 16- Five Tribes 15- PARKS 14- Lost Ruins of Arnak 13- Project L 12- Champions of Midgard 11- Abyss

Arnak is sitting on my table right now for another game of solo play.

King of 12 is my next purchase. Thanks for the Jedi Mind trick. :)

My prediction for Mikes top 10: 1. Kanban EV 2. Ginkopolis 3. Clans of Caledonia 4. Le Havre 5. Wayfarers 6. Teotihuacan 7. Tawantinsuyn 8. Oranianburger Kanal 9. Darwins Journey 10. Forest Shuffle Nick's I need to think about a but more 😄

Turing Machine didn't have a place on my shelves for a while, because it lived on the coffee table for easy "turdle" access 😂

Glad to see Suburbia get some love.

Feast drops out of Mike’s top 10? The real big shocker is when he reveals his top 10 as 10 different versions of Monopoly.

Love your channel and that you are encouraging top 100 lists, I had recently done mine with Pub Meeple (shout out! love that site) and been posting my other groups of ten so far, so here is my addition to this portion :) 20: Hadrian's Wall 19: Underwater Cities 18: Rising Sun 17: Great Western Trail: New Zealand 16: Star Wars: Rebellion 15: Roll for the Galaxy 14: Power Grid 13: Ankh: Gods of Egypt 12: Turing Machine 11: On Mars

Wait, what’s with that Grand Austria Hotel cover art??? 😆😆😆😳

How you described Hooky reminds me of how I played Clue as a kid. Process of deduction using cards you have to your advantage. very cool

That solidifies it! I've got to play my copy of Hooky!

Love the way you say New Zealand! cracks me up. I worked shearing sheep in New Zealand but haven't tried the game as yet.....one day :)

Just got a Feast for Odin on your reccomendation last week and played it over the weekend. Great game, I have to know what has supplanted it for you now!

Great picks. Tough to rank them as they are all good. I want to try King of 12, Anachrony, and Paint the Roses. I gave SkyTeam as a gift as I keep hearing good things about it. Boon Lake has my curiosity now.

I adore so much that King of 12 has made this list, I'm starting to evangelize it too!

I would absolutely love to see a 2p playthrough of Grand Austria Hotel from yall

Anachrony probably would have been in my top 20 too, but I've only played on BGA so I didn't rank it lol. Great game. 20 The Taverns of Tiefenthal 19 Ascension: Dawn of Champions 18 Patchwork 17 Lost Ruins of Arnak (one spot off of Nick!) 16 The Isle of Cats 15 Just One 14 Space Base 13 Wavelength 12 Ticket to Ride: Rails & Sails 11 Pax Pamir: Second Edition Also, have AFFO ranked higher than Mike 🤯

I love Turing Machine. Love seeing it on this list.

AFFO…. I’m speechless. Great list though!

My personal 20-11: 20. Pax Pamir: Second Edition 19. Pax Porfiriana 18. 51st State: Ultimate Edition 17. Rallyman GT / DIRT 16. Pax Renaissance: 2nd edition 15. Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game 14. Merchants & Marauders 13. Obsession 12. Maria 11. Twilight Struggle

I really want to play the other Great Westerns Trail (internal plural). My top 100 continued: 20. Marvel Champions The Card Game 19. Imperial Settlers Empires of the North 18. Ark Nova 17. Carnegie 16. Cthulhu Death May Die 15. The Quest for El Dorado 14. The Crew 13. Pandemic 12. Memoir '44 11. Res Arcana

Nick is cult of the new! I love it!

That Coffee Cam is WORTH a Subscribe!

A feast for odin is one i really need to pickup, I've only played nusfjord and i hear the praise for odin and need to add it in.

The only games I've played the physical copy of are Suburbia and Arnak. I've played both Tzolk'in and Feast for Odin on BGA. All of those are great games. I own The Crew, but haven't played it yet. My 20 to 11: 20 - Scythe 19 - Le Havre 18 - Mama Mia/Sole Mia 17 - King of Tokyo (Dark Edition) 16 - Roll for the Galaxy 15 - Project Elite 14 - Settlers of Catan Card Game 13 - Memior 44 12 - Dinosaur World 11 - Starship Catan

I have some of the games mentioned here. Not sure where I'd rate them, but I agree they are up there. King of 12 sounds intriguing. I am not a big card game player but you gents have highlighted a couple of card games, [cribbage, with the Wicked Cribbage deck, for one], that changed my mind. Thanks, as always for the list!

The next 10: 20. Maracaibo 19. Five Tribes 18. My Father's Work 17. Boonlake 16. Clank! Legacy 15. Cthulhu Wars 14. Scythe 13. Great Western Trail: New Zealand (Sorta true crossover!) 12. Underwater Cities 11. Earth

20. Cascadia 19. Everdell 18. My City 17. Art Robbery 16. High Society 15. Battle Line 14. RUN 13. Sky Team 12. 20 Strong 11. Galactic Cruise

My collection is somewhat eclectic, but I got around to ranking it earlier. It's a wild mix 😅 11: Tiny Epic Galaxies 12: Phase 10 13: Betrayal at House on the Hill 14: Pandemic 15: Yehtzee 16: ArcheOlogic 17: Mice and Mystics 18: Qwinto 19: Das NEINhorn 20: Roll for Great Old Ones

Spoilers: Hooky is one of the only games my wife requests to play unprompted. It gets major props from me for that. Paint the Roses is so good. Think it made my top 15 too this year but I forgot to save my PubMeeple results hahaha

*snick and box top 100 games* **sing**

My 20-11: 20. Watergate 19. Western Legends 18. Bora Bora 17. Hadrian's Wall 16. Alchemists 15. Raiders of the North Sea 14. Targi 13. Pandemic Legacy: Season 2 12. Return to Dark Tower 11. Horrified

Is wonderful world similar to century? If so, which one would you recommend more? Thanks !

We're getting close!!

Michael!…. Ah…wh….wh…ah…wha wha, who, what, nervous laughing. Number 12! Off the chair! One the ground. ;D. Love this count down. You never know what is going to happen.

Jumping back on now that we’re up to “almost” not trash level games. 20: Concordia 19: Caverna 18: Cascadia 17: Lobg Shot: The Dice Game 16: The Reckoners 15: Bunny Kingdom 14: Wayfarers of the South Tigris 13: Mindbug 12: Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small 11: Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion

My 20 to 11: #20 - Vaalbara #19 - Fallout Shelter: The Board Game #18 - Ark Nova #17 - Ginkgopolis #16 - That's Not a Hat #15 - Mythic Mischief #14 - Abyss #13 - Skora #12 - Maple Valley #11 - Dungeon Mayhem: Monster Madness

27:15 ... I started with NZ, but that's because I wanted a GWT game and heard NZ was coming out so I jumped on a preorder group buy and hoped it wasn't a bad game. I am not disappointed at all, but learning the game solo was a bit of a beast! I still would say it is fine to start there if you have been in the hobby a while and like medium and heavy euros

I think Mike fell and hit his head moving games to the new studio. Only explanation. That or Nick bribed him to do it and then won an oscar with his performance acting surprised. Yup. As for me my 20-11 would be as follows: 20. Funfair/Unfair 19. Sleeping Gods 18. Spirit Island 17. TM Ares Expedition 16. Obsession 15. Iki 14. Rococo Deluxe 13. Ohanami 12. Ecos 11. Cascadia

I really need to play a GWT; any recommendations on which on to start with? My 20-11: 20. Archaeology: The New Expedition 19. No Thanks! 18. Rise of Tribes 17. Grand Austria Hotel (glad to see we're fairly close here) 16. The Red Cathedral (thinking I should try White Castle) 15. Schotten Totten 14. Race for the Galaxy 13. Glass Road 12. Imperial Settlers: Empires of the North 11. Istanbul

Again with the Vlad but can't recall your view on Mage Knight? Feel like it'd really tick that complex solo that you each can enjoy 11Ark Nova 12The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game 13Ginkgopolis 14Mage Knight Board Game 15Teotihuacan: City of Gods 16Underwater Cities 17Pipeline 18Terraforming Mars 19So Clover! 20Azul

More preach for Boonlake!! Honestly underrated Pfister game.

many of these are well known games, instead of going through what the game is about, it would be more interesting to hear what drives the big drop/rise compared with your previous year rankings

Boonlake rules!

Is Anachrony worth it at 2 player?

How could you do my boy Odin dirty like that?

- SPOILERS - Well, this was a surprise! The start of this 10 was not promising, because I find King Of 12 extremely frustrating, for mostly the same reason I find games like Revolution! frustrating, because people’s hidden choices can mess with you and so you have no way of strategising. If you can predict what your friends will play, that’s no fun either. So I don’t understand why people find it fun. Same with The Crew. In fairness I haven’t played Mission Deep Sea, but I didn’t understand the hype behind Quest for Planet Nine. I’ve played a total of about 15 scenarios on three different occasions, and it seemed they were either super easy or impossible. If you play with people who have difficulty with logic, they feel bad for letting the team down, but if you play with superminds, that person is you. Either way it just falls flat. But the list gets better. I enjoyed the only time I’ve played Tzolk’in. I also like GWT: New Zealand; the first two felt a bit repetitive, but I liked how NZ made shipping interesting; it’s a massive improvement in my opinion. Lost Ruins of Arnak is a lot of fun! Shipwrights: Redux has promise; I misunderstood some important aspects on my first play, and I had terrible card luck on my second play, but I like how heavy it is for how snappy and fast it is. Boonlake is great fun! A Feast For Odin is sprawling but in a good way. Paint The Roses is cute and fun … not sure it’d be Top 20 for me, but it’s a delightful filler game. Turing Machine is fascinating and very cool … I don’t know if I’d find the gameplay particularly fun, but it is very original and interesting. Suburbia gives me all the SimCity feels. I had a bad experience introducing it to a newer gamer, so we haven’t touched it in a while, but we should try it again. Grand Austria Hotel sounds like a game I’d love but I haven’t tried it yet! Everyone recommends it for me given how much I love dice placement. Thanks for the list, friends!

I love Boon Lake also

Grand Austria Hotel...was that intentional??? I thought this was a family-safe channel. 😏

Some good picks here, I played GWT: New Zealand for the first time yesterday, the sheering thing took me half the game to get my head around, but once it clicked about needing the extra Harry (Shearer) it was great! 20 - Cribbage (Up 23) 19 - World Wonders (Down 11) 18 - First Rat (Down 9) 17 - Trekking Through History (Up 1) 16 - Mansions of Madness 2nd Ed - (Down 6) 15 - Heat: Pedal to the Metal (Up 7) 14 - 7 Wonders (Up 51) 13 - Critter Kitchen (Down 2) 12 - Just One (Down 6) 11 - Mille Fiori (Up 6)

Jeez all worker placement or euros... where are all the non euro gamers??

Hooky sounds really interesting.

Kutna Hora isn’t Lucky Duck games is it?

I got around 640 games in my collection but none of these. I don't plan to either. I stick to good games 😉

OMG what a fall for AFFO

Do the brothers like Alchemists?

Why does Mike hate A Feast for Odin so much 🤷‍♂️

NOT EVEN IN THE TOP 10??? Might as well call it A Feast For Garbage!

I mean we knew ffo wasn't going to keep it's top spot but 12 mike. How rude. 11 games usurped it

More like TRASH for Odin

Well i guess Feast is trash now, thems the rules, good to know i never need to play that

Cokey McCokerson get me. Every. Single. Time. He's never not funny.

Guess I’ll have to cancel my preorder for AFFO now… such a shame 🥲
