What can I say, i'm a sucker for a good engine builder. Now, I haven't played the other games in the series, but they seem to share similar design ideas. Any recommendations for what one to pick next?
The first game (just Manhattan Project) is now out of print so maybe get that before it's gone - it's the easiest of the bunch to play. Minutes to Midnight is the hardest and longest. Chain Reaction is a good lunchtime game.
Would love to see you take on both Manhattan Project and Minutes to Midnight. Unlike EE, both are highly aggressive games disguised as worker-placement Euros. Player will be up in each other's business for sure. If you can get it, I recommend MP with the Personalities module from the Second Stage expansion. Both games are good at all player counts including 2P. You seem to like direct PvP so I think you'll like these!
I kidna like some aggro in my Euro games. Argent the Consortium became an instant classic for me because of that. I'll see if minion games can get me a copy at some point
I never want to say never. But that ones unlikely. I don't know anyone with it. And it costs more than Gloomhaven in NZ for some reason. I also dont think splotter send out review copies.
I love getting a feel for how a game is play in such a short amount of time. Great vid!
Thanks for the quick review! Been a while since I've played it. :)
Thank you for what you do.
This is a really good video. I found it took me 15-20 minutes to go through every little detail which isn't necessary. Thanks.

Space Base is an engine builder that's had me hooked for the last couple weeks. Quick to explain, should work with your format.
Cheers James. Any plans to bring the first game back?
Minutes to mindight might be worth a look for sure.
