That is my one gripe too. I have heard the expansion helps. Not sure if it does though.
@markpatoka21 күн бұрын
This is a fun game, pretty easy to teach and you can really work some combo actions. I agree it also seems to end way too quickly so we'll purposely not complete all the goals just to keep playing it longer. I have the Cold Water expansion but haven't played with it yet so hoping that helps extend some of the gameplay.

Tough to make an area control game work at both 2p and higher player counts. I hate it when I find a cool theme on a game that just won't work for your game group.
@BGMechanicsАй бұрын
It could be cool. I don’t know. I didn’t try and it don’t particularly love those dummy players that I have to do all the maintenance on. I definitely recommend at three and I am assuming more 4 and 5 would just add more chaos which would be fun.

Could be correct. It has been a minute since I have played so I am not sure. One of my issues with Allplay games is I wish there rulebooks were a little more comprehensive to clarify some of the rules a bit more. Changes are I interpreted incorrectly...I do that a lot. Thanks for watching!

I have a review of that one on the channel as well. The new one is possibly a bit better due to the pick up and deliver aspect of the passengers. At the end of the day though I would happily play either of them.

@takiseharata3075Ай бұрын
Your channel is the only reason why I still watch YT. Have you had a chance to check out My Farm Shop? The game is avoided due to the graphics, which are disgustingly mobile. But according to some, it beats Space Base and Machi Koro combined. Interesting looks also: Àiyé, Patterns (Mandala theme abstract) or little filler Vagetable Stocks. From older productions intrigue me Nukumi Onsen Kaitakuki. Cheers bro.

Thank you for the kind words. I am pretty sure we have a My Farm Shop review. It is a solid game and it definitely has a Bad Company and Space Base vibes.

My sister and I got Mall Madness for Christmas as a joint gift when it first came out in the late 1980s. We played it at least 10 times on Christmas Day alone and god only knows how many times with our friends. I’m 44 and it’s the only board game from childhood I still have, box and all. It doesn’t matter how many years have passed since playing, I can still hear the electronic voice telling me what to do. Personal faves were Go To The Chin Chin Store! (kitchen store) and Try Again Later! 🥴 Even my dad can repeat every phrase despite never playing. Now my only problem is finding someone who wants to play it with me. I’m thinking that if I add adult beverages and turned Mall Madness into a drinking game that wouldn’t be an issue. One day I’ll be 80 years old in a nursing home, trying to set up Mall Madness tournaments. 😂
