Love your channel. You guys talk about Dune all the time. Would love to hear your thoughts about the 2 expansions (Rise of Ix and Immortality). Once New Zealand is out, would also love to see a comparison of the 3 new GWTs.
Great humor! Your edits are done really well to give your jabs at each other optimal delivery, fantastic job to whomever is doing the editing on your vids!
I discovered your channel last week (OMG! So late) and fell in love. I love your complicity and I love the way you talk about the games. Don't change a thing. Thank you so much.
Seldom people would join me in appreciation of Lacerda games( I really like his thematic Kanban EV, Gallerist or Lisboa. I miss there Ark Nova, Brass, Troyes, Obsession and Arnak as one of favourites . Thank you for the video about Euro games!
I'd have to think about it, but my top ten euros would probably have at least a couple lacerda games in it. I've enjoyed Lisboa, vinhos, gallerist, kanban, and on Mars.
Thanks for all your content, I find it very entertaining :) This would be my list if I had to trim my collection down to 10 euro (euro-ish) games: A Feast for Odin Anachrony Barrage Brass Birmingham Castles of Burgundy Dune Imperium Eclipse Gaia Project Scythe Terraforming Mars
A fun watch for sure. 10 more suggestions from my favourite Euros: Agricola, Anachrony, Ark Nova, Brass Birmingham, Concordia, Hansa Teutonica, Obsession, Rococo, Scythe and Underwater Cities.
1.Dune Imperium 2.Ark Nova 3.Terraforming Mars 4.Puerto Rico 5.Scythe 6.Brass Lankashire 7.Gaia Project 8.Great Weatern Trail Argentina 9.Viticulture 10.Caylus 1303. Eclipse is in my Top 10 Ameritrash😂
Fantastic list, love all the games on your top 10. We had Brass Birmingham and sold it after a handful of games and whilst a solid game certainly not one we appreciated very much. Ark Nova is not as good as Terraforming Mars, but im sure because its newer, some would disagree. Great video guys.😊
Firstly, a great fun video, and by definition, a hybrid-Eurogame, is a type of Eurogame, QED. What’s missing, Hamsa Teutonica and Concordia. Upvote for Eclipse and Dune Imperium.
Still love Lords of Waterdeep. My first worker placement game that I first played years ago and I still play it, just played a couple days ago. Great list
Eclipse most definitely a hybrid, and for me, one that leans much further towards thematic than euro. Indeed I'd say Scythe is more euro than Eclipse. FWIW I do appreciate the breaking down of false barriers these hybrids offer, and sometimes the combo is excellent. Probably wrong to include Eclipse here, irrespective of whether we agree / disagree on its relative position.
Awesome video guys, Might i recommend top 10 co-op games that aren't campaign? My group loves coop game but we can't commit to too many story campaign games, we are looking for something like spirit island.
Great content! I like watching you guys. HOWEVER… Flamecraft as a top 10 euro is an absolute crime lol. Has to be the most safe/vanilla/unoriginal euro on the market. But hey, we all like what we like!
Skymines - my favorite Pfister game - an interactive euro with a lot of options Feast for Odin - you know it, should have been on the list :shame: Brass - n1 on bgg, n1 everywhere!
In my opinion there are so many similar Lords of Waterdeep games that do better maintaining simplicity, that's the advantage of LOW. For example I would prefer almost anyGarphills game over LOW (like Raiders of the North Sea)
I was so tempted to put bitoku on my birthday list recently but opted to put Iki instead which was Brought for me. I wanted a game that we could play as a family...I saw the length of bitoku and knew my kids wouldn't last 😅
I've been watching this top for the third time and I think I should finally leave you a comment here. I really like your channel even though I don't understand all the dad jokes. 🤣 Poor me. But that's probably because I need to improve my English. 😉 Greetings from Poland. 🙂
If you can hybrid and laserda is outside, then so: 1 Tyrants of the Underdark 2 Northgard: Uncharted Lands 3 Lost Ruins of Arnak 4 Keyflower 5 Terraforming Mars 6 Hansa Teutonica 7 Thurn and Taxis 8 Blood Rage 9 The Castles of Burgundy 10 Viscounts of the West Kingdom
Euro game meaning has been completely lost the last few years. Most of the games qualify as euro games so it's so hard to make a euro only list. My suggestion is providing the meaning of the category before starting the list! For the specific video: What is a euro game, what do you qualify as a euro game etc. I would really like to know your opinion on Brass: Birmingham.
My top 10 euro of all time: 10: Tiletum 09: Clans of Caledonia 08: Orleans 07: Caverna 06: Castles of Burgundy 05: Concordia 04: Gaia Project 03: Great Western Trail: Argentina 02: A Feast for Odin 01: Brass: Birmingham. I did not include any tableau builders because I feel like that genre of card focused games came about recently as euros got more and more hybridized. When I think of euros, I always pictured more of a board in the middle rather than focused on a tableau of cards. Also did not include any combat or take that oriented games, I like my euros to only have tension caused by blocking and timing.
Man the word euro doesn't even mean anything anymore. Most of these games pivot around lucky card draws. Euros are supposed to be zero luck and 100% open information. Cards are just as random as dice. Just because they "feel" less random doesn't change the math.
True. I used to love that about euros. One of my personal favorites of all time being Caylus. But somehow I keep gravitating towards a little bit luck in games these days. /Jānis G.
Good job Janis G. I have every game on this list. You know what game I don't have Ark Nova because I played it and it was bad. (not sure if weather machine should be on here or not, I have it, just haven't had a chance to play it yet).
@@BoardGameHangover Cheers for that. Last year was my first time. This year I am bringing my roommate. 15hr flight from Los Angles is long but 100% worth it. (BTW roomate is a big fan of the channel as well)
DUNE. Of course it is. I endorse this decision. To quote Ferris Bueller, "if you have the means, I highly suggest you pick one up. It is so choice." 😇😈💙 Another great video! Your fun, playful dynamic is still the best. Ark Nova surprised me in the best way (being pretty certain I'd bounce off it immediately.) I deeply disliked Terraforming Mars, but I'm so glad I tried Ark Nova despite the similarities. The ARNO solo variant is such a good experience.
I bought Flamecamraft after watching this video, it was a really bad idea u.u Please be more honest, flamecraft was really boring and definetely made for childs 😢😢😢 I love you guys ❤
Great as always. Many people don't like Dwellings of Eldervale because of the way the dice affect the game. Not the fact that dice are part of it. Just the way that they are part of it. What are your thoughts on it..?
I'm scammed to watch this video, there is ark nova in the picture but it is not in the top 10 list. How can you not place ark nova in the top 10. It's the best euro board game ever made
@@stormburns Because there are hundreds of fantastic Euros, new and old, and the same uninspired choices always come up. Flamecraft? one of the best euros of all time? come on mate.
Nice to see your hybrid game top 10 list, I think you should do euro games next 😂
Love the video, it was great fun, keep it up! 👍🏻
That's a great idea! Will need to run it by Janis G.!
or the Euroest games
Bitoku and Flamecraft for all time favorite????? Where is Anachrony/Feast for Odin/Everdell/Arnak/Trickerion????
This was the most hilarious top 10! 😂 I felt so strongly with Janis. 🤣
How you posting pics in UA-cam comments,
@@LoftOfTheUniverse You get these special emojis when you support the channel by becoming a Member. :)
Makes me sad when you guys don’t get more views. The way you run reviews and lists is way better than every other channel
Love your channel. You guys talk about Dune all the time. Would love to hear your thoughts about the 2 expansions (Rise of Ix and Immortality). Once New Zealand is out, would also love to see a comparison of the 3 new GWTs.
Key omissions here are Brass Birmingham and Ark Nova
And Vindication
Your channel is the best! No 15 minutes of talking about nothing. You get right to the reviews and I appreciate it
LOL 9:09 "hybrid weirdos" 😂 Another great video, another great list! However, I'm not familiar with Eclipse. I'm gonna have to check it out.
Great humor! Your edits are done really well to give your jabs at each other optimal delivery, fantastic job to whomever is doing the editing on your vids!
Cool list! I’m glad I’m discovering your channel!
My top 2 are probably Anachrony and Gaia Project 👌

+1 for Troyes. A awesome interactive older euro that get passed on because of its age and look.
I'd have to think about it, but my top ten euros would probably have at least a couple lacerda games in it. I've enjoyed Lisboa, vinhos, gallerist, kanban, and on Mars.
I like the honesty here and balance between the two. List is fine but overall video is awesome
Thanks. What would you add to the list?
Dune Imperium is so great! ❤ Loved the video, thnx a lot!
Thanks for all your content, I find it very entertaining :)
This would be my list if I had to trim my collection down to 10 euro (euro-ish) games:
A Feast for Odin
Anachrony
Barrage
Brass Birmingham
Castles of Burgundy
Dune Imperium
Eclipse
Gaia Project
Scythe
Terraforming Mars
A fun watch for sure.
10 more suggestions from my favourite Euros: Agricola, Anachrony, Ark Nova, Brass Birmingham, Concordia, Hansa Teutonica, Obsession, Rococo, Scythe and Underwater Cities.
Personal opinion here. Scythe has terrific components production quality but terrible gameplay.
Anachrony is my top-1 on par with Dune.
1.Dune Imperium 2.Ark Nova 3.Terraforming Mars 4.Puerto Rico 5.Scythe 6.Brass Lankashire 7.Gaia Project 8.Great Weatern Trail Argentina 9.Viticulture 10.Caylus 1303. Eclipse is in my Top 10 Ameritrash😂
It's ok guys!
When I want to play Euro games I like the Euro Hybrids much more anyways.
So this list is just for me 😄
Glad you liked it!

Just discovered your Channel and you two kind of rock hard :) already discovered some interesting sounding Games i havent heard before Like flamecraft
That was amazingly funny~ Great stuff!
Thanks for you content, i love this channel, in which place put Brass Birmingham? Great List!
Terraforming Mars belongs closer to the 20 mark rather than 6 in my opinion.
I really liked your list, it wasn't the typical one.
Skymines - my favorite Pfister game - an interactive euro with a lot of options
Feast for Odin - you know it, should have been on the list :shame:

I agree terraforming mars is number 1. Gonna check out bitoku thanks
no place for Brass because of hybrid games? =P
How about the top 5 most aesthetic and adorable looking board games (that are actually fun)?
If you can hybrid and laserda is outside, then so:
1 Tyrants of the Underdark
2 Northgard: Uncharted Lands
3 Lost Ruins of Arnak
4 Keyflower
5 Terraforming Mars
6 Hansa Teutonica
7 Thurn and Taxis
8 Blood Rage
9 The Castles of Burgundy
10 Viscounts of the West Kingdom

I think Terraforming Mars is quite a bit overrated. Cuba, Black Angel, Clans of Caledonia could also look nice on that top 10 list
Great content.
But now I'm not sure i know what a euro game is anymore 😮😄
What qualifies as Eurogame?
Dune Imperium is just fantastic
Well euro games without any of Italian desifner mafia games. Feel like missing out :)
How do you count an admitted hybrid game as a euro? Haha. Creative list guys.
My top 10 euro of all time:
10: Tiletum
09: Clans of Caledonia
08: Orleans
07: Caverna
06: Castles of Burgundy
05: Concordia
04: Gaia Project
03: Great Western Trail: Argentina
02: A Feast for Odin
01: Brass: Birmingham.

Wish you both had your own top 10 or both of you rearrange the 10 on the board..
Haha loved this one!
Pulsar 2542 (or something like that, not sure of the year) deserves a spot!
Have to try that one. Thanks for the suggestion.
Nice beard right-hand Janus. ... ... But, for my money, Istanbul and Architects of the West Kingdom are both WAY better than Lords of Waterdeep.
Nice video and all but…..no Uwe Rosenberg? No even one Sham Phillips game ? But you have Flamecraft? 😵💫😵💫😵💫🙃🙃
What about Gaia Project?
Top 1 Euro !
Have you played?

I don’t get it. If you individually ranked them, how is there only one top 10 and not two top 10? Or did you each get a top 5?
Because they add their top 10 list together and the result is the list shown here.

all i can say is Maracaibo
No ark Nova? Or Narak?
Not sure about top 10 but top 3 in any order would have to be On Mars, Castles Of Burgundy and Lost Ruins of Arnak
