Imperial Miners - Board Game Review - Can You Dig It?
Imperial Miners is a light engine-building card game for 1 to 5 players from designer Tim Armstrong (Arcana Rising, Orbis), in which players excavate mines using a clever card activation system. This stand-alone game is set in the popular Imperial Settlers universe and offers beautiful illustrations, easy-to-grasp rules, and satisfying gameplay full of chain reactions and engine-building synergies.

Who Am I?
One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game.
The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure).
I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos!

Little rules mistake: when you place a card, you don't activate all the cards above it, but only one in each level, making a way to the ground floor.

Just worded it wrong, I've played that way normally.

I love it but I decided to house rule the event phase in order to see the upcomming event 1 round before it happens. Gets more fun... and fair for everyone! Also a go to solo for me too! My problem with the gems is not being able to differ the blue from the green with my poor game table lighting! Thanks for the honest review! Love your format!

100% agree that distinguishing blue from green is a challenge!

@TheBrokenMeeple 8 ай бұрын

Yeah many have complained about the gems.

Love the channel and nice review. I get why you don’t love it but at the end of a long day with a tired addled brain the quick simple play is a treat!

I can get that, but then other little games can do the same - the Oniverse games in particular.

I really like this mechanic of the pyramid triggering cascade. Is there other games doing that apart from Mountain King? Thank you for your answers

I'm not personally aware of any, it's not a common thing.

Thank you for the good review. How would you compare this game to Super Motherload if you have played it?

@TheBrokenMeeple 8 ай бұрын

Not played it, I wouldn't mind trying it.

Not many rules in the rulebook because a lot of text on the cards? How much reading is there? Solitaire is not my thing anyway but i was curious how satisfying is that combo activation.

@TheBrokenMeeple 8 ай бұрын

Not a lot of reading at all really. These aren't complicated abilities.

I still have yet to buy any Imperial Settlers game, but I plan to, based on Luke's like of Empires of the North.

@TheBrokenMeeple 8 ай бұрын

EotN is the recommended one of the lot.

My husband and I enjoy this one for what it is, but I really hate that they used blue and green gems for this. Really? Out of all of the other colors, you had to pick blue and green, Portal? In low light, they are virtually indistinguishable for me. Thanks for the video, Luke!

You're welcome and agreed - the gems are a bad idea.
