Each faction provides different ways to play and interact, chess-like strategy of playing/laying the tiles, but there is enough luck of the draw to keep it interesting. I will offer a correction that it isn't a 2-player game as you stated, though it is by far best at 2-players.

My top 10: #1: Pandemic #2: Great Western Trail (Second Edition) #3: Xia: Legends of a Drift System #4: Champions of Midgard #5: Star Wars: Imperial Assault #6: Clank!: Catacombs #7: Viticulture Essential Edition #8: Rajas of the Ganges #9: Circadians: First Light #10:Dune Imperium

Thanks for this list and your brief summaries of each game. Have you had a chance to look over your list and categorize by themes, mechanisms, types, designers etc.? I definitely see some patterns by what is on your list and not. As a rough estimate, I ‘d say I have 40-50% of your top games in my collection. Prior videos of yours were factors in my obtaining “The Lost Expedition” and it is a lot of fun. Have you played its expansion, “Fountain of Youth”, yet? I have it, but have yet to try it. Just recently, I played “ Space Base” a bunch and like it a lot. I will always play it with the “Light Speed” variant which is found near the back of the rule book and very easy to implement. It helps ramp the game up a bit quicker like “Prelude” for “Terraforming Mars”.

Actually I have never tried the variant for space base. I will definitely check that out. Thanks! Edit: After checking out the variant, I think this will make the game even more enjoyable for myself. Appreciate it.

So many crossovers with my favorite games, I stopped counting. Glad to see Wingspan way ahead of Earth hehe. No hate on the game or the designer, but I dont understand all the reviewers saying Earth is better than Wingspan (and even Ark Nova). *Glad to see Caesar's Empire. I feel like it doesn't get the love it deserves. I call it "streamlined TTR." Smart desing to incorporate set collection as end game scoring... Rather than "set collecting" the entire game to be able to claim routes.

A good cheaper box to buy to dip your feet in and see if you like the system would be Big Foot vs Robin Hood. Simple characters that play vastly different. My favorite box currently tho is the 4 character box, Battle of Legends Volume 2.

All these lists disappoint me due to them never or hardly ever including detective/crime/deduction type games, where a person has to use logic and really think clearly. I'm too old being in my mid-50s to play shoot, kill, fight, etc. Not into competitive games as playing them with a partner can be deadly, for the r'ship. I like mystery, fantasy, light, cooperative games, or crime-solving type games. Pandemic I will never ever get...the word itself has burnt me so much cos of the Australian govt during that time that no way on earth would I even come close to getting a game with that name, no matter how good it is. Wingspan....birds don't interest me in the slightest, again no matter good the game. Some games I bought yet haven't played though plan to once I move to Europe to be with my Mrs and Granddaughter are......Untold Adventures, Legacy of Dragonholt, Sleeping Gods, 7th Continent, Flamecraft. Crime and horror types are clearly ones which include Sherlock Holmes, Fury of Dracula, Ghost Stories, and Horrified. These to me are much better games, for my age group, rather than the Euro style, shooting, fighting, etc game style that seems to be most prevalent in many of these lists and is so disenchanting. On a positive note, how on earth you can play 400 games in 18 months is beyond me lol, and even more so, how the hell do you remember 100 games and what each does. I have about 50 and already forget what I have lol....so your memory impresses me a lot. Good on you for finding your passion and enjoying what you do.....my memory may improve once I start playing the games 🙂
