It strikes me that with a rock on each corner for wind, this would be a very outdoor friendly game. There are so few quality games that are relatively windproof and compact enough to take camping, on a picnic, to the beach, or to an outdoor festival. It would be great if you ever decided to make a list of games that fit this niche.

Whoever claims Hanabi is a chill game is off their rocker.

Great news for Cylinder fans

That twist at the end was more shocking than The Sixth Sense.

The SUSD effect. By the time you finish watching this review said game will be sold out or preorders will be full! 🤦‍♂️

@youtube We need a more enthusiastic "Like" button option for when Matt says things like ClumpyStyle.

I'm excited for the eventual person who actually manages to watch this on their wedding day

just been re listening to all the podcasts again, thanks so much for all the boardgames, boardgames and people who love boardgames and more boardgames still

Wondering if I could play this game with a pocketful of random change and some chess pawns.

This game has big Uncle Iroh energy

The reasons you gave for loving abstract games is the exact reason I love carcassone; it’s as sweaty or casual as you make it.

This channel is so thoughtful and i love everything about it. What a neat game!

"What a lovely tube to add to your collection of tubes." I have, like, SO MANY tubes.

Great review, as always! Also really appreciate the alternative recommendations, you've been really consistent with those lately :)

Game looks great and I want to pick it up now, but I’m also distracted by missing the old x-wing cards.

If it's ok with the sustainability council, all games should come with a table size cloth map from now on.

That was an awesome review. You Mary Poppin'd a ton of stuff out of such a simple game and short review!

I wish matt had put on a flower costume for the review

Am I the only one who thought that Matt's voice halfway through the video at like 6:40 was very tim robbinson?

This was great to watch as I was eating copious amounts of pickles

You guys are great. This looks very interesting. Thank you for the honesty on biases. It does look "chil", and the component quality looks high -- interested in the price point.

Those shots of the old Skull review. You lads look like wee babies

i have to say that this could have been a sack. The tube seems to be superfluous, though pretty. It is one reason why i love the game hive so much. i usually take it with me to family events and such to spend the time, either with my brother or or someone who is interested. And another game on my wish list. Thank you SUSD (no really, thank you. You have showed me fantastic games and enabled some real quality time with my family and friends)

Have you tried Polarity? It has comparably simple rules, nice canvas cloth mat, interesting placement choices, and a delicate dexterity element with the magnetic pieces.

Completely distracted by the unfitted radiator.

SUSD secretly announces new wedding officiant services

love to see a neat 2 player game. most of our collection is "2+" but we all know the two player experience falls far short. Since my table is usually just my brother and me, we really ought to invest in some 2 player games like that we can enjoy over and over :)

What if Bocce, but inside?

Wow, this DOES look like a great choob to add to my collection of choobs.

Couldn't concentrate on the review because I spent all of it trying to figure out if I loved or hated Matt's bobbly red lamp.

Honestly I'm amazed that one could pour all the rolly bits without having any roll on the floor

I love "chubes" too

So simple! I love it! It's like a chill version of Cobra paw

You got me. Ordered. Damn you SUSD

The world's best cylinder actually fits in a mini m&ms tube. I saw it on reddit

I might need to pick this one up!

I should have bought this before this happened.

I own The Fuzzies, Hey! Thats My Fish, Hive..picking this up and going to check out Ice Team. I'll consider them wedding gifts to myself and my wedding mate.

I want to watch the "Matt explains his hatred of Hanabi" video

omg i can't believe I'm married now

Wonderful review Matt! One of your best in ages : ) Very comforting and chill just unloading on a simple board game for once. Definitely buying this one!

Skull is a game that unfolds then unfortunate collapses back into itself as soon as someone starts just saying a number between 1 and 3 immediately for their turn, which everyone then realises is optimal and the game loses all pupose

Instant buy. Thanks for the great review!

6:38 Anyone else slightly annoyed the lid wasn't lined up properly?

12:35 oh no, I have to tell my girl the news

No kidding, my wedding day was less than two weeks ago. So close!

Love a game that doesn't need you to buy to play it. You can recreate this with pebbles and coins or whatever and I love it ❤

fucking love a cylinder me

never thought youtube would make me a bigamist but here we are

loved it, I might pick this up

Lacuna potatoes... need more gravy! 🥷

SUSD Effect: Lacuna Coil CDs are now sold out worldwide.

Thanks for a very well done review!! :D This kind of game is right up my alley with the type of friends I play with. Also, thank you for always bringing up your disclaimer. It's always reassuring to know that anything that SUSD has any affiliation with will be brought up honestly.

That sounds good.

Seems like such a nice little game :) thank you for sharing

I think matt is married to lacuna now

No don't tell people about this great game! Now we'll never be able to get our hands on it when it goes to market release!

Great its impossible to find in Europe. Saves me money!

Have you been on the beans again? This one REQUIRES great realxing hippe music and .. so much coffe it seems :)

thank you for the lovely video handsome Matt

Hanabi is a masterpiece and i will not hear it slandered.

What a jazzy chair!

What a very pretty game. Lovely

the review makes me want make a bootleg version of this game

Matt, you're a gem. Truly love your energy and integrity.

Link to buy it in Europe doesn't seem to work!

I had to step away from ever playing Hanabi ever again with my group. I just...it broke me.

Getting married in two weeks time, you got awfully close!

I'm surprised this got a recommendation. I'm not sure about this game. I bought it and have played it 10ish times. I enjoy the puzzle in the moment but for my group who are all fairly good (or at least evenly matched) at board games and puzzles, whoever goes second wins. It's easy to eek out the victory when you take the final turn if you were evenly matched throughout. Maybe it's different for other groups but the pattern was so apparent to my group that we've largely stopped playing. There was only one game where the person going second didn't win and it was because they were new to the game.

bangin jacket

Hey Matt, what have you been super gluing?

Great review (again!) Slightly distracted by the fab al_murphagram naughty bunny mug merch! 🐰

Great video - loved it!

A review on hegemony it seems very interesting

You guys should review Crescent moon.

it really is a test to my capability of handling anxiety every time I see SU&SD go ham with the small pieces of a game during a review, such as letting they fall on the floor

Hello, delicious pears.

look at the yellow wooden piece at 2:30 that looks chopped off... are you the type of person who would write to the company and ask for a replacement, or would you keep that little malformed fellow?

nice sans shirt, Matt!

So... it's good..but we played 4 games...and we're convinced whomever goes 2nd just wins. We even let first player take 2 pieces at start instead of 1... still not enough.

hmmmmmmm could use a new tube for the hallway.

I maried at may 2023, this video is from august. You almost got me. 😅

Congratulations!!!

Go super-lite

I really like your outfit.

Love the jacket. Or is it a shirt?

Please do a livestteam of war of the ring

It's "whom"

I also hate Hanabi. Why do people like it?

I came to the channel to watch the video about games that turned your brain to sh*t, but its been taken down :(

Absolutely lovely. But all those LoS decisions... that's gonna be a nighmare to play with a tabletop wargamer. 😁

But why HATE Hanabi?

I remember buying fuzzies after watching that mentioned video… noone wants to play it and if it gets played it just raises tons of questions and frustrates everyone for not having clear rules on stuff that happen in the game. So I guess I‘m not into this lacuna

I liked the idea, but I didn't like the $35 price tag. So I bought some (sets of) differently shaped buttons from a hobby shop to substitute the flowers. As for the Trophies, just use dimes; heads and tails. Same game for a fraction of the cost.

I think my niece would like this game. Simple clear rules. I do think I have a rough strategy. That being try to put as many pieces at intersections of multiple colors and take the furthest pair. You are blocking your opponent while, hopefully, being closest to a pair of pieces.

OMG I have never found anyone else who dislikes Hanabi!

seems like go

lol

+1 on Hanabi :D

Blacklight sensitivity would have been quite a stylish choice.
