As soon as you said games with the most eyeballs, I (also) immediately thought, oh good you can play patchwork again! Haha I got to play New York Zoo for the first time and loved the easy play, and good decisions, but probably My City would be my current favorite. My first thought for next year was Co-Opctober, it doesn't quite roll off the tongue as easily, but Co-op are some of our favorite games!

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Co-opctober made me laugh out loud. The names are just so funny and clever. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

@jamesmorgan1967 6 ай бұрын

While I welcome the idea of a new theme next year "Polyominovember" is such a clever term that I think you need to make it a yearly tradition!

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

We will definitely revisit polyominoes like we do with Roll & Writes and 2P Games! Maybe even in November 🥰

Thanks for the video and for the month-plus of polyomino games! I think I _have_ to stick with Cartographers as my favorite polyomino game at the moment. There were a lot of great polyomino games featured this month that I have not had an opportunity to play. Of course, that can be said with _every_ board game out there past, present and future. So many games, so little time. A few suggestions for future theme months (after searching previous tweets): · Award-winning cooperative games: Pandemic, Just One, The Mind, Dorfromantik, Hanabi, Codenames Duet... · Oops! All Cards!: Dominion, Fantasy Realms, Illusion, Fuji Flush, SET, Point Salad, Port Royal, Fluxx... · Dice chuckers: Can't Stop, Las Vegas, Roll for the Galaxy, King of Tokyo, Sushi Roll...

Ooo I like the idea of award winning! It’s hard to find hidden gems then though 😭 We will have to keep pondering!

My wife and I like Patchwork. I think she may have gotten me Barenpark for Christmas. I’m hoping to pick up My City soon too.

Every time I see New York Zoo, I want to play it. I think it's those animeeples. 🥰 I've played and enjoyed polyomino games, but I guess my favorite so far must be the one I own... Cartographers. To be fair, I haven't played Feast for Odin yet (super want to!) and only got to play a little of My City at a con. I loved it, though, and bet I'd love the legacy element even more. For next themes, in addition to tagging onto another post with Deck Build-Spring, how about En-June Building Games? (If these are too terrible, I'll see myself out. 😂) Whatever you do next, it'll be awesome cuz you're awesome. Happy New Year! 💜🍾🎉

Awesome list and definitely some new games to check out. You guys could do a deep dive into the Garphill Games. Would love to dip my toes into it as they always get so much praise. But where to start

@kovray 5 ай бұрын

Oooo that’s a wonderful idea we’ve been thinking about how to do that for quite a while now, maybe this is the year!

HAHA am I the only one watching these on 1.25 or 1.5 speed? I never realized before I started doing that, that Ilya talks way faster than Tylor does! HAHAHA. OK so as far as the QOTD, I think I have to pick Cartographers, as it's the only polyomino game in my top 10 of all time. So yep. Thanks guys for a great November and have a happy holidays.

What fantastic lists. Im def keen to try Junk Drawer. My favourite (as currently own soooo many that yet to play) is Barenpark and New York Zoo. My idea for next year would be.....Dice-mber.....all the predominantly Dice games.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Dice-ember does sound like a lot of fun! Thanks for watching Karen always appreciate you immensely

Blokus Duo and Blokus are excellent polyomino games.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

They really are!

@jamessmith1274 6 ай бұрын

Wild Tiled West is in my top 10 for sure. Cannot wait to get Planet Unknown. I also did not know some of the ones you mentioned were poliomino. I have heard and most of the games but now i know they are poliomino i will be getting some of them for sure! Also would love to play new york zoo on bga with you two!

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Ooo nudge us on our Discord! We’d definitely be down! Wild Tiled West was so close for both of us for that top ten! It’s a great game!

My wife's top polyomino game is Isle of Cats. I think mine would be My City, but Cartographers is a very close second.

All such incredible games!

@FunkyFoxGaming 6 ай бұрын

I own and love Isle of Cats and Patchwork, but I played World Wonders at a convention recently and I absolutely loved it, I think it'll quickly become one of my faves when I can get a copy.

I'm a fan of Patchwork, but I suspect I would love Feast for Odin just a bit intimidated

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

That’s how I felt about A Feast for Odin for a long time. It definitely has a lot of moving parts but once you trudge through the game once it definitely all comes together

@kevinngo3299 6 ай бұрын

WOOOOOO! Exciting! My favorite might be Feast! But I also like Rebuilding Seattle but now I'm curious about Princes of Florence.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Such good choices! Congrats again Kevin!

@alisonwentland3765 6 ай бұрын

I just picked up copies of Rebuilding Seattle and Tipperary at my FLGS after watching your Polyominovemer videos. So glad to hear both made your top ten! Yay! Can’t wait to play. Also have Llamaland, My City, Cartographers, and Barenpark. I love Phil Walker Harding. Can’t wait to play! Our fam favorite is Silver and Gold so far but we haven’t played all the other games I listed…yet. We need to go to work less and stay home and play games more. Love your videos. Thank you for the inspiration. Would love to see you do tile placement games.

@christianbank393 6 ай бұрын

Barenpark is my favorite polyomino game, but I also want to mention Antiquity because it often gets overlooked as it's a heavy game with polyominos as only a part of it.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Ooo I havent looked into Antiquity! Will certainly take a look.

@parisceive4963 6 ай бұрын

Feast for Odin is also my favourite polyomino!

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

ITS SO GOOD!

@Sreehammer 6 ай бұрын

I'm not really a fan of polynomio games (too restrictive and not as thematic), but I really enjoyed Wild Tiled West! I enjoy the addition of dice placement and all of the different icons/powers.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

It’s such a fun game! It was really close on both of our lists to making the top ten!

@alexisostrander2065 6 ай бұрын

Mine is close between Feast for Odin and New York Zoo. Feast is an amazing game, and really high on my all-time list, but its not something I want to play all the time and have to dedicate time. Whereas New York Zoo is so easy to get to the table, quick, and fun.

I’m pretty sure cartographers would be the top for me just so easy to take places and pull out and never had a dull game just love it! Deck building could be a fun month there are tons of those!

@2frelledminds 6 ай бұрын

I am not really a fan of polyomino games. I think they cause a disconnect for me, mentally, and that can take me out of the game. I can't think of any that I've hated, but there aren't that many I really like. I enjoy playing Barenpark occasionally on BGA. My favorite is either Number Drop or Isle of Cats, I think. Those are the only two I can think of that are actually in my collection.

@kovray 6 ай бұрын

Both of those are so lovely! I agree it’s hard to find a thematic polyomino game
