They sell these cool metal hanging shelf things at ikea that split your cube in half and makes for a nice way to display two rows of small games on 1 shelf! Didn't know just how much I'd enjoy watching someone talked about their games. There's so many games out there I feel like we have just as many as you but only about 50% crossover lol.

Boy oh boy, you guys certainly have your hands full when that game table finally comes in. Lots of campaign games to play. Looking forward to some play through a. Funny how we acquire all these games and they get the “haven’t played this one yet” description. There has got to be some psychologically reason for this. Cardboardfomophobia! The fear of missing out on a new game that you know will never get to the table…but you just need to have it on your shelf anyway.

Great video! Your game room looks so cozy 🙂. I wouldn't mind letting apocalypse blow over in a place like that lol. I couldn't help but noticing that you have trimmed (or swapped) a big part of your collection. Have you made a video with games that you had to let go? I love those almost as much as checking everyone else's collections. And is also very informative since you had games that I own and haven't played yet or that I wanted to add to mine. Love your channel 🔥, your camera presence and chemistry is among the best I've seen in board game channels. Greetings from Buenos Aires!

Love to see such a well rounded collection and somebody else that loves Pandasaurus' Dinosaur X games, but you're not making it any easier for me :D Here's me wondering whether or not I should get Dinosaur World, since I LOVE Dinosaur Island - but if I get World, will I play Island anymore? And now there's a new player on the block, so to speak, with you mentioning that the Rawr & Write nudged ahead of Dinosaur Island in your ranking... :D Oh well, I think that I'll for now settle for Dinosaur Island, try to get it to the table more often and once there's more room to store all our games :)
@FostertheMeeple 2 жыл бұрын
I think that’s good logic! What I will say about Dino World - is that it is HUGE. We have a big conference table and at three players it took every inch of that table.
@khatarin 2 жыл бұрын
@@FostertheMeeple Yeah, that's something that I've known. Knowing how big of a table space Dino Isle takes up and realizing that World only hogs up even more space, is a deterrent. But knowing that I'll get more storage space sometime in the future when we get to move into a bigger house 1-3 years from now, is also the same time when we've got room for an even bigger gaming table than our dining table. The game looks soooo cool, that it is a slight shame that it requires so much space. Oh and also, the expansions aren't available in Finland so that's also one thing that keeps me from gettin Dino World :D !
