Great list, with some absolutely stellar games on there.
Fab to see Falling Sky and a lovely way to discover Vijayanagara, which sounds fascinating.

Anybody out there still playing Oath? This is one of the only channels that really seemed invested in it!
I am sad that the game seems totally dead to players it has such endless depth it seems to me only a few plays in!

[robmarney]

John Company somehow makes a rolling teach work and it's incredible. Every game I play there's at least one newbie and they never slow down turns 3+.

[MatJtube]

Awesome list. History game represent :)
Root is great, and it is also great to learn and play history!
oh, Dune is awesome too...

Hey stumbled on this channel, had to subscribe after Falling Sky being your fav coin. It's my favorite game, followed by Pax Pamir and John Company. Nice to see these awesome games get recognition 🔥

Stumbled across this after playing Root this week. I subscribed so hard! Great content!

[freebordor]

Pretty certain John Company is my current favorite game. It is so good.

Man thank you for your videos, I will check one of this games. Because of you I got into Root and Villainous (I decided to go the Marvel way) and the other day I just saw a video of you saying that you also liked one of my new fav games (Imperium Classics). It would be nice to see a video of you of this game since it is really good and now goes beyond with Horizons. Have a nice week!

I might be missing it but i don't see a discord link in the discription! I had to find it by googling. It might be in your link tree but some people don't want to click on that. Thanks for a great video! Lots of games i want to check out now

[Gothbrooks]

Thanks Sam! Just makes me want to play more Root!

You failed to mention Vast! I play the Mysterious Manor with both the expansions and it's a blast

[Nendonintendo]

Awesome list, with 3 games I hadnt heard of before! Always nice to see a lot of great games + some new ones you know then you're gonna like.

I remember being able to buy John company a few years back for like 60 bucks, thinking it was too expensive since I just bought another game. Now the game haunts me, with its crazy new price tag of more than 110 bucks... Never regretted not buying a game more than that time. FOMO HOORAY!

Scythe is up there for one of my favorite asymmetric games. Dune looks cool too! I should give that one a try!

[gornothdragnbone]

This is a great list of games! I've got a 4 player group of friends who all have root as their favorite game (me included). I've already picked up dune but this vid will really help them understand why it might scratch that itch in a different way.

P.s. that time wizard hat is so damn cool man.

[riccardodepieri]

You should definitely try dale of merchants. Not really similar to root in the mechanics but a great deckbuilder and it definitely scratches the different animalfolks/factions with different specialties itch, plus it also has great artwork

[dcrbdh]

Cyberpunk 2077 Gangs of Night City gave me pretty strong Root vibes. I'd suggest checking it out

[lasseleander]

Im surprised Ahoy isn't on this list. The artstyle, Asymmetri and components. Not to mention it's from the same company, so it's been compared a lot to Root.

[FragRevel]

Pax Renaissance is the G.O.A.T. in my opinion.

[eldadoobscuro]

Thanks for this great video!
Have you tried Circadians Chaos Order?
I’d love to see your opinion on that game!!
