Thank you for watching! And thank you for all your comments, I love making videos for you all!
If you're new to Actualol, my name is Jon Purkis. My two passions are writing comedy and playing board games, so I decided to combine the two in this KZfaq channel.
I make all my videos on my own, in my flat in London, UK, with the help of a diverse selection of wigs.

Thanks for this video! Really happy you liked Magic Maze so much as well as the expansion, and thanks again for visiting us at Essen, it was nice to meet you even shortly.

Wow, such a different Top 10 list than the other Board Game Pundits. Well done.

@Gusbusbus 6 жыл бұрын

I'm excited to see your top 10 party games. It's a great idea to separate them.

Finally. A top list that doesn't have Gloomhaven on it.

Love your content! I'd never heard of half of this games before, it's so refreshing. Our tastes are pretty different, but that means when I am in the mood to pick up something a bit more family-friendly, I know where to go! I hope your Patreon is blessed with many riches.

Agree. I like that he often talks about lesser-known titles.

Great list! I hadn't heard of Fugitive before - I'll have to go look at some review of it.

I help run a boardgame group where I live and we just added Kokoro, Dice Forge, New York Slice, and Magic Maze. So thank you for making me feel smart about my choices!

+Andrew Littell You are one of the smartest people of your generation.

Could you make a video about slightly older games that you still play? It is good to know a game that you really enjoyed in any particular year, but I reckon the most valuable games would be those that you'd still play from time-to-time a few years down the road.

So many great games! Thank you for including New York Slice :D

Excellent, excellent list! Magic Maze is a hit here, too, for exactly the reasons you give.

Love this list, I really appreciate your channel as an alternate view and selection from the more mainstream stuff. We picked up MS Batory after playing it in Essen from your recommendation. What player count have you found works best? We’ve played it regularly 2 player and one 4 player. I prefer the way the game plays with 4 but our game did go way too long.

@actualol 6 жыл бұрын

I've never played it 2 player. I've played it at three and four, which I both enjoy. I would kind of agree it's a bit long at four. As a comparison I played Mystery of the Abbey last night and it ran even longer. I think as people get stuck in the deduction it can slow down in these types of games. Alternatively, I played the very simple deduction game Sherlock 13 and found it to be not interesting at all, even though it was over in 10-20 minutes.

@AhJong0 6 жыл бұрын

Actualol Ah I’d be interested what you’d think on a 2 player level! Yeah deduction does tend to need some actual length to “feel right,” almost in the same way as a Civ 4X builder.

Great vid, thank you. I think the "box is too big" applies to most games tbh

Hello , you done an amazing list john , really nice title on this list, i really like to see individual list of top games , with a decent amount of explanation on why you choose those games to be there. Heven't hear of a lot of those games , on other hand i don't shop every week so that one goes to save for a shopping tour :)

Would be nice if you edited in screenbreaks with title slides for your choice so we could skim past some we don't care for but not miss your next number. as it was, I gave up watching, because I didn't have 42 min to commit to it

@ADadsLife921 6 жыл бұрын

If I use the amazon links on your profile, does that help fund you some? I haven't been able to do patreon, but would like to help!

@actualol 6 жыл бұрын

I get a small cut if you buy through the links in the description of the video, yes. Thanks for your support it's much appreciated!

I never knew this. I have bought numerous games based off of watching these videos. I will begin using the links.

Great video as usual. I like to see the game box ... maybe at the beginning or end of each segment? How about including affiliate links to amazon.ca for Canadian viewers? Also... do you know if Kitchen Rush will be republished or made available at a more reasonable price? Looking forward to the party game video.

@dhrdogterom 6 жыл бұрын

i love la cosa nostra nice to see it in your top 20

@mikelecsus1328 6 жыл бұрын

Well that's indeed a very different list of games i found at others channels , i like that you aren't afraid to be your own master and give your own opinion. Not all agree with you but that okay , this is your list by your opinion:) as for me i found a few titles i would like to check for myself as i missed some game...you know , not buying game every month) well done and continue this way.
