Great List! I know you have a busy work schedule and haven't been able to upload videos lately, but please do when you get some more free time.

Your content is amazing! I use your game recommendations to help pick out games to play with my kids.

This is the first video I've seen from you and I have to say I love your style, I mean those little touches like making a stop-motion with the components to announce numbers and even better than that, the short unboxing at the beginning of each section. kudos!

Lost Ruins of Arnak - at first I was bummed only 2 workers to place. But after playing a ton, I realized I am taking more actions without a worker. Needless to say, the more I play that game, the more I like it! And SO much content in just the base game! Replayability - through the roof!!! Plus all the stuff you get in the box... for $40?🤯

So many good options out there, it's tough to say "Hey, you missed this" because what are you going to leave off? Another Uwe Rosenberg game that I think is worthy of consideration is .... no, not A Feast For Odin. I think Hallertau is overlooked. Lots of ways to score points with so many cards so lots of replayability, decisions about when to use extra workers, the planting and harvest cycle and of course the ultimate goal of moving your house.

By the way, thank you for picking Dune: Imperium above Lost Ruins of Arnak and a special thank you for disliking the Everdell Tree!

Excellent list. Can’t argue with any of your selections. Fun video to watch as well. Great translations…reminds me of Dice Tower but better! I like guessing what your next game was based on the components you used in the numbering. Well done! Please do more Top 10 lists in the future!

[joellen]

A great Top 10 - I think I have all but your #10. Thanks for sharing!

[Venturello]

Good video, thanks. Lived the transitions!

DI is just an amazing. Played it last night and its just such a dramatic nail biter. The mechanics are smooth and it flows quickly and engagingly. Love it. My favourite game atm

[donnakeferlis]

Looks like you got the Mammoth figure for Endless Winter! Lucky duck!!
BTW, I really like the worker placement in that. So cool that spots don't get blocked but if you're first you get a little something extra.

Dune Imperium is an amazing game in that it’s easy to learn but there’s so much nuance and variation to the game that makes it fun to play every time. I’m excited for the next expansion, Bloodlines, to see what it brings.

[origenward]

Good video. Just sub'd. Appreciate seeing all the components as you speak on each game.

[Christopherjamesmurphy]

That stop motion is time consuming. Well done. Subbed in Nova Scotia

I subscribed yesterday 😊 Great video. I love how you show the game on the table and when it’s in the box 👍

[justinvamp]

Great video! Love Dune Imperium so so much.

Just a recommendation for future videos, keeping the name of the game or the box cover or something like that at the bottom of the screen while youre talking about it is very helpful!

[jacobjslee]

I thought I remembered seeing a video of yours on Witcher: Old World? Can't find it anymore. Then I noticed there aren't any new videos in the past year. That's unfortunate, but I guess that's called life taking over. Hope you're doing well!

[markheim]

I'm a big fan of Dune Imperium too. Not sure if you've played Caverna yet, but if you like Agricola you may like Caverna. I like it a little better than Agricola. Also, the Vahalla expansion makes Champions of Midgard one of my favorite worker placement games. Thanks for the video.

Great list ! I love worker placement games and there's quite a big overlap with my own favourite games. It seems I have to look at Endless Winter in more detail.

Also: would be keen to get your views on "Scarface 1920" - if you have played it yet. Great worker placement game with an outstanding implementation of the theme. It is just so much fun to play it.

And i see HEAT Pedal to the metal... One of the most intuitive AI sustem of any racing game to date. So easy to use.

[stacyp]

I agree with most of your list, but I would have to put Stone Age on there for me
