With so many great board games to choose from, it's always hard to choose just the Top 100 games we have ever played.

I'm a veteran gamer who started with Avalon Hill games back in the 70s and jumped into eurogames big-time when I lived in Germany for the first half of the 90s. I have owned well over 600 games in my life and made my own list of top 100 games many times. You guys are by far my favourite game reviewers and I've been watching you for years (and someday I hope to be a patreon supporter). I never do comments, but when Die Macher came in at number 24, I just had to say hi. Die Macher has been my all-time favourite game since I started playing it in 1991. I love so many of the games that have come out in the past decade or two, but nothing has passed the amazing experience I get playing Die Macher, which is such a delightfully interactive and thoughtful brain-burner and always leaves me feeling utterly wasted afterwards (I love games that do that). I've been telling people for many years how Die Macher was way ahead of its time and still stands up with today's greats. So thanks for saying that and confirming that no other reviewers even come close to sharing my own taste in board games as you two. Thanks for putting all the time into making these videos, almost every one of which I have watched. BTW I have travelled all over Europe many times (for work and pleasure) and Norway is my favourite country - my laptop wallpaper has been a photo of Norway since 2004. Maybe I'll have a chance to meet you one day! - Vic

Thank you so much for the very nice comment Vic, and sorry for the late reply. I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying what we do here! Die Macher really is special :D

The fact that you have so many crossover is proof that you play a lot together but it is also very cool when your partner has the same tastes in games! It would be fun to know which games in your respective top 30 that is not in the other’s top 100.

It's fun to watch you commenting older games like Die Macher (never heard about it in France). By the way, your french pronunciation of Troyes is indeed very good (tRRRoa). Juste try the rolling R now 😆

Why the vids in between?!! Even though Pueblo piqued my interest, I couldn’t wait for the closure to the top 10. Seriously, love your vids, love the ramblings. Thank you so much for sharing your work and thoughts on all these games. Yay!

Thank you for the kind words! :D We thought 5 weeks for the top 100 was a good time, and we have had some previews ++ that had to go out. The Game of the month is also hard to postpone until two weeks later, hehe :D Next week is going to be so much fun! PS: If you want to see how not to do a top 100, go look at how long it was between the first and last video when we did this in 2022. Spoiler alert: It was 4 months! :P

Late to the party, busy weekend. Architects is my 56, Gaia Project my 62. Revive is also my 28! Cascadia is my 106. Hmm, Maracaibo at 22 for me and Pirates of Maracaibo at 22 for Sunniva. Mini-crossover dance? My list: 30 - Railways of the World 29 - The Castles of Burgundy 28 - Revive 27 - Terraforming Mars 26 - Bitoku 25 - A Feast for Odin 24 - Tiletum 23 - Teotihuacan 22 - Maracaibo 21 - Weather Machine

Fascinating. The words "quick" and "Ginkopolis" used in the same sentence. The last time I played it and we got to the point where we have to add more tiles to the supply I ran away in order not to bore myself to a slooow demise ☠️

@BoardGamingRamblings 2 ай бұрын

Haha, really? 😮 I have never played a game that lasted more than 70 minutes, and taking a fee cards out of a pile has never takes us more than a minute at most! 😅

@Punkve1987 2 ай бұрын

@@BoardGamingRamblings the process of taking out the tiles isn't the problem, but after what feels like hours of samey gameplay it makes the game last even longer. On paper, this is a game that should be perfect for me, but I find it so mindboggingly boring.

Ginkgopolis easy to teach?! It's a simple game but grasping the concept before you've played is very very tricky! Good games though, have played most of them!

I never had huge problems, but at the same time, it's not the easiest game ever to teach, hehe :P

Fun fact, Riverboat is one of Britney Spears’s favorite game! Oups, I… 😂 Hooray for Riverboat. P.S. Ginkgopolis is too low 😜

@jacobmccue365 2 ай бұрын

Yes! Riverboat does not get enough love. I picked it up on clearance for dirt cheap and after the first play it was clear this is an underrated gem. You nailed it, the perfect medium euro.

I love it! It’s just enough crunch to make it fun every time, and also easy enough to teach most people who have played a few games!

Riverboat is a good game but I find out Heaven & Ale vastly superior

I love both, but Riverboat is my favorite (right now) because it is simpler to get to the table and play. It's so hard to rank games :P

@ilqrd.6608 2 ай бұрын

I will start watching once we are in the Top 20s. Still applaud the effort but a Top 100 is a fun exercise but not sure how one would argue the difference between spot #73 and #68. I think Top 20 is where the comparisons become much more useful to me personally

@BoardGamingRamblings 2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the feedback! I love doing these top 100 as a great way to talk about loads of my favorite games. I do agree 100%! It is hard to differentiate #73 and #68, but does it really matter? These are the top of the crop, the best 100 out of almost 2000 games we have played, and highlighting them makes me happy :D It is easier at the top, to say 19/8 f.ex, but I'm using the same system for all of them! Hope you'll enjoy next week! I think it will be a blast :D
