Hey, folks! Come check my short travel vlog from my trip to Origins 2024 last week! Not a whole lot to get excited about, frankly. I will try to get better at doing these. But I did get footage of the open gaming area, the exhibitor hall and some of the outside hall areas, too, just to give you a taste of what it was like. Special thanks to Love Thy Nerd, and Game Toppers for the opportunity to...

Sam & JT's Top 5 Nature-Themed Games
As there is a limit of 6. What happens to the fremen units thats over the limit if harkonnen attacks a sietche with more then 6 units on reveal
OMG! I’m so excited about this game! It’s on my wishlist! Being from Australia I’m going to have to wait until mid next year 😢 we don’t have anything like Origins or BGG Con here. Fingers and toes crossed I will 😅 so glad I found your channel a couple of weeks ago! Keep doing what you’re doing, great content! ❤
@@nadinekhatkar9485 Thanks so much for being here! Good Luck!
The graphic says JT's number 5 is New York Zoo
Just wanted to voice up to confirm that pink was definitely considered a masculine color up until somewhere around WWII. Pink is considered close to red, which is considered a passionate or aggressive (bloody?) color. (Same logic stands for people who pick red pieces in board games.) ;-) Logic is that red was for men, so pink was a bit lighter and fitting for boys. Anyway, somehow it flipped to become more of a color associated with girls... with the baby blankets being blue for boys and pink for girls... still generally stands today.
@@KabukiKid thanks, KK!
I adore Young Frankenstein... seriously maybe my favorite Mel Brooks movie. The original The Producers with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel is up there too.
Does Waterdeep count? City of Remnants? 😉 Joking, of course (because, among other reasons, they are still on my shelf of shame next to Bruges 😭)
@@DMBrownlee lol!!…the spirit of the list is real cities.
Done and done. 🤞
Great giveaway! I'll need to think about my games.
@@beakerkell Thanks! Glad you’re here!
Mistwind looks pretty nice
@@TheOldMan-75 plays good, too!!
Awesome giveaway. Already entered! 🙃Good luck everyone. Thank you guys, this is so much fun. 😁
Had fun. Thank you and have a great time at the Dice Tower East!
@@thewoopsik We will! Will try to also get some shorts in to share with you all, too! Thanks, Woop!
@@SamHealey6 cool. Looking forward to those shorts.
Nations the dice game is soo soo good... esp with the Unrest expansion ❤️
Nice list! I got one crossover with JT. Thanks for the entertainment! My list, totally unprofessional, based on the gut ranking I make every month: 1. Golem 2. Gorinto 3. Llamaland 4. Great Plains 5. Ark Nova !!! go go go JT !!! 6. World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King (pandemic system) 7. Equinox 8. Great Western Trail: Second Edition (yeah, it's a second edition, I'll add a number 11 for this) 9. 7 Wonders Architects 10. For the King (And Me) 11. Riverside Cascadia is also on my shortlist. But the score probably dropped, since I played it too much. Sometimes, my gut ranking can take a hit by this for easier games. Just 0.5 point more, and it would jump to place 10. Personal recommendation for Sam: Codex Naturalis. It's a card game, but it fits the "tile-puzzle-laying" aspect of some games.
@@Joris1111111 Gorinto is pretty stinking fun! I was just introduced to it, though, so we’ll have to wait to see how it grows. Great list!
I would like to play Golem. Thanks, JT
@@Oaklestat I have it in my collection. But the West Coast of the Americas is just a bit to far to come over and play. 😅
Fun List thank you! :D Strangely Ares Expedition (have the KS all-in) did not resonate with my play group ... we still prefer classic Terraforming Mars with accelerated start: Preludium, Venus and Colonies + all production starts at 1 + building any city always gives +1 money production :D ... to save on time we do not draft and typically take 2 hrs at 3-5, 80-90 mins at 2. Have not had a chance to play everything on your list so my list would be in no particular order (BGG2021 listed): - Ark Nova - Chronicles of Drunagor - Bitoku (likely more 2022?) - Nightparade of a Houndred Yokai - My Gold Mine --- the funnest little intro game I know :D - Wonder Book (family weight and so much to explore) - Welcome to the Moon (the story is so amazing after the n-th time paradox :P - sadly nobody seems to have played that far ^^) - Sword&Sorcery Ancient Chronicles - Unsettled - Marvel United X Men also do like Canvas, Assassin's Creed, Horrified and So Clover ^^
@@elikurtz729 great list!! Thanks for being here!
Great list!! JT
Thanks Sam, hope you'll love Tower up! ;-)
Awesome gameplay. Team blue! 😅Thank you.
My top … 11 (I’m cheating) … in alphabetical order Canvas Cascadia The Crew: Mission Deep Sea Mystic Paths Rescuing Robin Hood Roll Player Adventures Rolling Realms Sleeping gods So Clover! Stella: Dixit Universe Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition
@@ShylaRinoa thanks for being here! Great list, btw!
Great list. I should have cheated in an 11!!! Thanks, JT
Sorry for your loss Sam.🙏❤
Thanks so much-I can't wait to hear your review once you play "Go for the Krill"! Praying for your family while you go through this time of loss.
@@amypak Looking forward to getting that to the table!
Very jealous can’t wait to be able to pick this up
It's good! JT
Thanks for visiting us at the Three Nail Games booth, Sam. We had a great time playing some games, and getting to know you more. I'm praying for you and your cousin as you process your grandpa's passing.
@@sampak7600 Thanks so much! It was a pleasure meeting you all!
Thank you Sam, backed it straight away.
Awesome, David! Hope you enjoy it as much as we have! Thanks for being here!
Awesome list as usual. I really need to get Assassin’s on the table. Love Cascadia and Final Girl. Thank you for sharing. See you next week.
@@thewoopsik thanks, Woop!
10. GI Joe Deck Building Game 9. Whale Riders 8. Super Mega Lucky Box 7. Horrified: American Monsters 6. Tiny Epic Pirates 5. Cubitos 4. Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition 3. Bad Company 2. So Clover 1. Great Western Trail 2nd edition
@@tzgardner Nice list!! Thanks for being here!
Sweet list!! JT
I just started watching and bum there is Sam mentioning me again. 🙃😀You are the best! Made my day again! Thank you. ❤Back to the video.
Sam, did you get a chance to go to Play to Z games and try out Lynx? Very good game, purchased. You're a fur trapper that goes into debt and economically you have to use your simultaneous action selection to be able to maximize your profits to get into the black and eventually win. I played it and it appeared to have a runaway leader problem, but at the end there were only 15 points separating 1st to 4th place (1st place had 70). Very strategic...resources are tight...and it stays true to theme. Glad to have found your channel. Subbed.
@@garyspartan67 I’m Brie go by and say hi to Zev, but didn’t have much time left to try stuff out. He’ll be at DTE, though, so maybe I’ll be able to get him to teach it to me.
Heroscape
one you said Stratus Games I looked it up in 5 seconds on BGG
Nice video
Thank you so much for this glimpse of Origins. It looks like a great place to play/buy some games and meet people! Think the closest we have with respect to board games would be Berlin Con which will be soon. Very sorry to hear about the passing of your grandpa and heartfelt condolences to you and your family Sam.
@@elikurtz729 Thank you, Eli! Thanks for being here!
Thank you for the review Sam.
Thank you for the vlog.
For some weird reason, when you mentioned Bang: dice explosion! I felt the urge to watch Tommy Cooper 😂
Because of your video and your enthusiasm, I late pledged it 🎉
@@hanslamal5632 awesome! Hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we did! Thanks for being here!
Sorry I couldn't be there. I usually can catch it at work but I was in meetings all day.
@@Nubbins86 No worries!
That’s the nicest thing you’ve ever said about me 😂 always a pleasure having you on the team Sam. You are a true friend. Praying for you and your family in the coming weeks. ❤
@@Luke_LTN Thanks, bruddah! Reciprocated!
Of course it was unanimous, who wouldn't want Sam back on Dice Tower?
@@arekkrolak6320 lol! Thanks for being here!
Very sorry to hear about your Grandpa, Sam. Sincere condolences and peace to you and your family.
@@fingolfinfinwe Thank you!
I am from Israel and I really cannot understand what is fun about this game. I am glad you guys enjoyed it though. As said though - others are much better...
@@shaike82 It is a challenge, that’s about it. It is nearly a carbon copy of Pandemic, with, of course, minor differences. As such, I think it stands on its own, but it definitely isn’t the best, understandably. I think there are much better biblically-themed games out there, for sure! Thanks for being here!
Great list, Sam. Enjoying your content. One nasty comment though: the combination of a black T-shirt in that black chair is unfortunate. From some angles you look like a hunchback. LOL!
@@Jootie_de_Kop Not the first time I’ve heard it…lol! Unfortunate, yes…but I own too many black tshirts at this point. I think it’s something I’ll just have to live with, now. Thanks for being here!
Jessie, you look super cool. Fun gameplay plus you have mentioned my name at the beginning in the video which put a huge smile on my face. Thank you. Looking forward to your vlog.
@@thewoopsik Always a pleasure!
Unfortunately, this segment goes live during work. I'd love to watch, of course, but a girl's gotta get her work done. Also, the random balloons made me LOL quite loudly.
@@VanessaG1229 lol! Me, too!!…stupid balloons!
Only played six games released in 2019, same as in 2020 I think. I would rank them in this order; 1. Star Wars: Outer Rim. - I give this game a 8 out of 10 rating but with the expansion it is easily a 9. 2. Wingspan - It took me a while to get on the bandwagon for this but once I did I was hooked. 3. Lord of the Rings: Journeys in Middle Earth - I wish I could play this more often, it would most likely overtake Wingspan as number 2 of this year. 4. Azul: Summer Pavilion - Easily my favorite version of Azul, granted I've only played this and the original. 5. Minecraft: Builders & Biomes - I feel a little silly listing this, but I've had some great times with my kids playing it. 6. Unmatched: Battle of Legends Volume 1 - My least favorite of the Unmatched series that I have played. They have definitely improved upon the original.
@@Kazdan353 great list of game there! Thanks for being here!
I was tied up, or I would have been around for this one live. Oh well. :-) Love the Command & Colors system!
I am sorry about your grandpa Sam! ❤
@@thewoopsik Thanks so much, Woop! I appreciate that!
It was fun. Thank you Sam.
@@thewoopsik Thanks, Woop! And Congrats!!
Congrats @thewoopsik 🎉
@@SamHealey6 Thank you Sam. I am soooooo happy I won. 😀
@@stefve Thank you.
Very sorry to hear about your grandpa, Sam.
@@jimgrant9081 Thanks so much, Jim! Thanks for being here!
Sorry to hear about grandpa. Thanks for the help in the @GameToppers booth. So good to hang out some!
@@GameToppers Thank you for the support, Burky! Always a pleasure serving in your booth!
Great video. I have printing press. I'm hoping to get it to the table this week.
I love all your gaming picks. I love the cover with the cat. I'm a dog and cat person. Oh mandalorian 🎉
