    But did you hear about the two player game that released just today? It's called Dress like a UA-camr and I win... cause I was wearing the exact same sweater (well, I guess sweatshirt?) as Ilya! Shhhh, don't tell our spouses we're twinsies! Realistically I tend to avoid 2p only games. I have a bunch of good ones, but they just don't get played! Otherwise, most anticipated is definitely Star Trek Captain's Chair... kinda cheating cause technically it was released last year, but I've not yet seen it in stock in Canada. Also kind of a cheat as I anticipate I'll play this one almost exclusively solo. Otherwise, having just got and played (solo) Furnace, I'm quite curious about it. Also, we love Azul, so that one maybe... 2 player can be so mean!

    • @kovray
      @kovray 18 годин тому

    We played this game for the first time. Very surprised to see how close the score was at the end. (Within 10 point with 3 players) Everyone’s forest took a completely different strategy. One focused on trees and mushrooms , one focused fox and rabbits, and I focused on deer and bats. We were all surprised how close the scoring resolved. Very well balanced game with so many opportunities of play technique available.

    I still don't understand the last scoring phase, 1,2,3 ... whatever

    • @kovray
      @kovray 5 днів тому

      Yeah that one is a bit tricky. You essentially get a set of points 1/3/6/10 for DIFFERENT feature tiles either on land or on water. So for example, if I have 3 different landmarks on water, I would score 6 points and if I have 1 different (unique) landmark on land I would only score one. This also happens for every land and water space, so multiples can be scored.

    There are so many to get done or try out i haven't been able to get to... some hopefully soon like Darwin's Journey, Unconscious Mind, Townsfolk Tussle.... also Civolution, Endeavor Deep Sea, Speakeasy as big ones. I played Barrage a while ago and love it but didn't add it to the collection because I'm not sure of that for primarily solo. However, if you're at GAMA, let's get a game in (I can even TRY to learn it enough to teach if it happens to be around but doubtful, I'm sure, haha).

    CELEBRATION OF SUCCESS for playing Stonespire Architects! My must-play this year is definitely from the "shelf of shame" because it was one of the first few games I ever bought (June 2022) and is still in the shrink: Dinosaur Island.

    • @kovray
      @kovray 6 днів тому

      WOO HOO! See everyone says StonespiRe, I dont feel as bad now haha! We've never played Dinosaur Island, but have played Dinosaur World.

    I hope to get Scarface 1920 played in 2025, I've had it for almost a year and not learned it yet ! Barrage is great, I wish we lived close so I could teach it to you !!! I do think it plays better with more than 2p but we play exclusively at 2 and I would much rather play it at 2 than not at all. I got the Duel map this year which is much tighter and greatly improves the 2p experience, check it out if you plan to play it at 2 as well !

    • @kovray
      @kovray 5 днів тому

      Ooo that sounds very interesting, I'll look into it! I didnt know there was a Barrage duel map, but definitely sounds like we'll need to play at a higher player count. Excited to check it out.

    Sankoré is fantastic! I would teach it to you, but we'd have to set up both our copies and then FaceTime since I'm in Helsinki. If you're up for that then so am I because I love teaching games to people. Games that haven't been played in my collection? I'd say that they are mostly expansions, but the worst one must be the expansion to On Mars. It's such a heavy game as it is, so before I play that I have to relearn On Mars and get others to play it enough before I can introduce the modules of the expansion.

    • @kovray
      @kovray 5 днів тому

      We’re guilty for that one too, the expansion looks incredible but definitely daunting as we’d also have to relearn the game basically. Good to know Sankoré is great, even more motivation!

    I learned how to play Stonespire Architects on Board Game Arena. Barrage is on there, too, but I didn't figure that one out there with my one play, but I also didn't try the tutorial, ha. Pax Pamir is on BGA as well, and I think it plays okay at 2, but more players is usually more fun with area control and negotiation.

    • @kovray
      @kovray 5 днів тому

      BGA just doing all the hard work out there. I feel like we’ll succeed with Barrage sooner than later.
