Azul: Queens Garden is my favorite of the three I’ve played. I will be playing Stained Glass of Sintra soon.

Also, love First Rat

So glad I got Queens Garden. It’s exactly what I had hoped. I keep the original for the lightweight family game, and QG for when gamers are playing and we want something heavier.

Glad to see you bumped up Wonderland’s War. It’s a 10 for me!

Agreed with the 9s for the Lockup and Riftforce exps. Both of those games are awesome, and their exps take them to even greater heights

[TabletopTurtle]

Good to see Wonderland's War crawling up in ratting. It has grown heavily on us as well, despite being one heck of an over-produced game.

Lockup's original rating from Tom was a seal of approval!

[fingolfinfinwe]

Some great ones this week. Obviously Dead Reckoning is the best, ;) . But both Lockup and Roll Player expansions are outstanding.

My opinion on TtR: New York is the opposite, I think the original is far too long for how simple it is. New York condenses that into a nice 15 minutes. The only downside is that it doesn't have a score track like the later "mini" TtRs.

I think the mini ticket to rides are too short. I feel like you are just getting started and then the game is over. I want a bit more
