You're very welcome! Hope it doesn't disappoint 😄

But thank you for doing a video focussing on the lesser known games.

@@GamingRulesVideos haha, that's fair! I didn't have time to watch all of your live stream on anticipated games (but I did watch a good portion of it!), so I likely missed it in there or in one of your other videos. Thanks for watching - and thanks for your content 😄

@@boardgamehubby Nobody has time to watch all of my content :) I've only mentioned it in the post-Essen video so far, but my VLOG goes live tomorrow and it gets a proper mention in that.

Right? It looks stunning, and I love travel themed games! 😄

@@queencat-f3u Awesome, glad to have you back 😄😄

From my understanding, this is a bit Trekking the World meets Ticket to Ride. You're trying to hit a balance of drawing transportation cards until you can turn in your cards and reach a city, and you score points for having more connections, so there's a balance of when to turn them in if you don't want to risk the destinations getting taken away. Additionally, there are some variable endgame scoring conditions to also consider.

@@rmclean101 you're very welcome - I hope you get to try or buy them 😄

I'm sure it was just autocorrect, but that's some clever low-key shade on Tir na nOg 😅

@@JacobRamirez-li9dt holy crap, that's hilarious! I wish I could claim it was on purpose. Damn you autocorrect! 😂💪

Ooh, I think I've actually missed this. Thanks for the heads up!

🙈🙈🙈

Thanks! Very happy if it has helped provide different input 😊

@@ParlorPunch Thanks! It's on my potential demo list, so I might have to check it out 😄

@boardgamehubby Great to hear, I will keep an eye out for it😁 I had a chance to meet the designer. Keith is an enormously generous guy and his game plays that way as well, you're going to love it.

Haha, I'm sure it's great 😄 - you tried it?

It sure does! If it's anywhere near as good as the first Canopy, it's definitely something to look forward to 😄

You better believe it 😀

Well done 😄

Thank you! I hope you will like it as much as I do :D

Haha, I see that I posted from the wrong account. That was Board Game Hubby :D

@@alexanderbrady5486 Thanks! As baffled and saddened I am that Kathrine hates the game that much, it does indeed make for an interesting dicussion 😅 And that's a good idea, maybe we should do a series like that 😀

@@Thebrewgeek1 I don't think you'll regret it - never mind Kathrine 🤣

Indeed I am! Would be fun to game again! Unfortunately life's been a bit busy, so that has taken a toll on the channel. We do have 5 or so videos filmed though - just need to find the time to edit them 😅

@@boardgamehubby This is so great. Will be there, too. Let's meet for a game or two :) Looking forward to seeing you again.

Thank you so much! I'm sad to have missed this comment until now, but it is heartily received by us :D

Exactly, shouldn't be a problem at all 😅🙈

Hahaha, thank you 😄😄

Spot on 🙈

Haha, she was happy to see your sympathy for her 😅 nice! Which ones caught your attention?

haha! Cheese Thief, Nekojima & Rainforest City are some of the ones that I'd never heard of before and peaked my interest 😊

@@natrc4593 nice! Your interests align very much with Kathrine then, those all rank highly for her in terms of anticipation 😄

Yes, that's true! 😃

🤣🤣

@boardgamehubby I tried to catapult that term. The Internet being thr Internet had people argue with me on why it was a problem to use. I think someone do not want to face spending issues. In my case, my reasonable self tells me to stop getting new games because I am not finding people to play in person. My tabletop gamer says, "Really? Fine, I will solo the games". My reasonable self then tells me that the game doesn't support solo play. My tabletop gamer self thrm creates a solo variant. Yes, Zoo Vadis and Diplomacy can be played solo I tell the world. I just put up a solo variant to Ra. The Haul of Shame real. It is connected to the shelf of shame.

@@thegamesninja3119 I find myself fortunate enough to have many people to play games with so that my unplayed games percentage is constantly hovering at around 20%, which is the new normal that I have forced myself to be satisfied with. But I'd be lying if I said I'd buy significantly less if I couldn't play as much as I did.

@boardgamehubby buying yes not driven by external circumstances but internal motivations. It is easy to get caught up on the moment, particularly at a convention, and wonder why. One can use external circumstances to rationalize buying decisions. But that is rationalizing. I have decided to follow the Hotness List on BGG through the lens of where Heat places on it (calling that the Heat Index) to track cycles of interest, so I am trying to find other ways to distract and follow the business. If you do have enough people, not everyone where you are needs to own a copy of the game, so you may want to coordinate with others.

​@@thegamesninja3119u dont need that many games, for me boardgames is much better than video games,but its expensive u can buy a switch or a pc with that money and play a digital version to scratch the itch, that why i limit my collection to just 15 i just trade or sell them to get a new one, i just traded my lorenzo for modern art. Fight the fomo 😊

Oh, wow 😲 that's completely next level. Haha, yeah, that sounds exactly like my experience 😅 Do you keep a list of your games? I'd be very curious to see your collection. What are some of the games you're interested in?

It is NOT a collection. It is a manifestation of a to do list. Just tell yourself you need a 5+1 listt of games for every occasion like I do. 🥷

Indeed, jeg har brugt maaange timer på at researche forud for messen 😅. Jeg kom til messen med en shortlist på ca 100 spil, som jeg enten ville købe eller prøve for at se, om de var købeværdige. Jeg er helt sindssygt heldig. Det er faktisk hende, der fik mig konverteret til at blive brætspilselsker 😄

@@boardgamehubby Ja det må man jo sige at hun er lykkedes ret godt med ;-) Fedt :-)

Det kan du tro! Med en masse nye spil 😄

Haha, yeah, buuut I'm now officially running out of shelf space 🙈

@@boardgamehubby go buy more shelves and create a shelf of shame wing where you live. 🥷

Tak - det glæder at høre, nogle kan lide at følge med 😄

As someone once said: Playing and collecting board games are two very different hobbies 🤣

@boardgamehubby yeah, PLAYING is done with intention, collecting is started by accident. 🥷

It would've been, but fortunately I was able to drive down there from Denmark, so it all barely fit into our tiny car 😅 so I was also able to buy the games in chunks and then load them into the car so I could return to the fair to buy more 😅

With the amount of Trick-taking games added to your collection, you have to do a top ten list. I'm betting Board Game Wife will love that 😆 @@boardgamehubby

Damn, impressive haul - love to hear you talk about some of them at least - great video!

@@bretterwelten Thanks! 😄 Did you buy any of the same ones, by chance?

@@boardgamehubby No, actually not :) I was reeeeally conservative this year because of the pile of games-to-play we still have at our home. But maybe we come visit you someday to play through _your_ pile. There are a few treasures in your list, that I'd love to own and play.

Ooh, we have yet to try Watergate, but I think that we will really like that one. I have the Schotten Totten version of Battle Line, and it's super solid, always happy to play it 😄

Good pick. I would maybe have it on my top 10, but Kathrine unfortunately isn't that fond of it :/

We really do enjoy it. It has a very good BGG rating as well. I can't say that I know how other reviewers on YT have rated it, but it's been a hit with everyone I've played it with 👍

@@boardgamehubby Thanks for your response .. I already ordered ....

We've only played Five Tribes a couple of times, but that's one we're quite warming up to! And Sea, Salt & Paper is one of Kathrine's favorites 😄

These are all excellent recommendations. Targi and Wingspan are both in my top 20 games of all time, and I think Targi is even the highest-ranking 2-player game for me. I think the reason we didn't include the mentioned games here is that they're a bit heavier, and for a list of couple's games to recommend broadly we wanted to aim for a cozier, easier vibe, sort of 😄

Tak - vi er glad for, folk gider se dem 😅

Well, those are two perfect games to have tried out of this top 10 imo 🤣 In fact, since we made this list, Keep the Heroes Out has creeped up in front of Cat in the Box for me, so that it is no 1 for both me and Kathrine 👍

It really is a glorious game. I can see our ratings going even higher than a 9 as well with more plays :D I'm definitely in on the expansion as well - boss battles sound like a lot of fun. And glad to hear we aren't the only ones just replaying the scenarios 'till we win 🙈😅

Ooh, very interesting! Do you still need to have a character in the same room as the heroes, or do you just flip the token to remove the heroes from anywhere on the board?

@@boardgamehubby no, I just use it whenever I decide, anywhere in the dungeon. It's only 2-time use maximum, so it's not gamebreaking, but can get you out of an otherwise cascading bind without having to resort to going back to Family mode. Besides, it lets those nice little round cardboard tokens serve a purpose again :)

Awesome! Since filming this review I've gotten a chance to play it with my younger siblings as well who also loved it! 😁

We're the grateful ones - Keep the Heroes Out is unbelievably fun and addictive! 😀

Doing excellent! Or well, I guess she's a toddler now - 14 months old 😀

Almost old enough for a board game 👍

@@williamkremer7382 haha, I'm eagerly awaiting that first magical time we play a game together 😅

Thanks, we're happy that people want to watch along 😀

Haha, I know 🙈🙈

We were given a review copy in Essen. Where are you located in the world? If you're from Europe you can buy it from Philibert.

@@boardgamehubby I am in the U.S. Guess it will be available eventually. Unfortunately shipping is so high to import it. Thanks again. I enjoy your videos.

@@cindykrimes8392 Thanks! :D Hmm, this site seems to be dealing with USD, so maybe you can order from here? zulusgames.com/products/the-two-heirs

Thank you! True, we have considered being more scripted, but we worry it might cause us to lose some of that charisma and natural feel. But it’s something we go back and forth on exploring. I agree, more pictures would be optimal. For this video I included one with each game and decided to limit it to that, since it does unfortunately take a lot of time already to edit these videos 😅. But that’s also a balance - because we want to make good content that people want to watch, and more pictures would definitely be a step towards that 👍
