- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Just a quick walk-through of our ever-expanding board game room.
I talk about our shelves, organization, fun tidbits and stories, and a little bit of future planning.
As of today, we have 780 board games with more on the way! Which means, ill be updating this tour sometime in the near future when things are a bit more organized and in place!
For more board games, reviews and discussion, you can find me on Instagram @Nat20AU
Awesome setup! My game room is a disorganized mess lol
Absolutely gorgeous. It reminds me of a Barnes & Noble. My absolute favorite part is how there are those corner shelves, which are a fantastic use of space!.
Thank you so much! The corner shelves are one of my favorite parts!
I was admiring the corner shelves as well!
Whoa dude that’s pretty great. Love the atmosphere here.
Very good room, I wish I have a spare room and organise them like you.
Amazing no more boredom
So great. I love the little gems that you didn't mention like Article 27, hiding amongst the rest.
There's so many little things I skip over, i hope when i do an updated tour ill dive deeper into some of the hidden gems and hard to find games :D
Personally i would consider having the big coffin style boxes on top of the billys.
Awesome collection and shelving. I just recently bought Burger Up.
Good choice! I hope you enjoy it!
Loved seeing some of my favorite titles there on your shelves: Starcraft, Quantum & BSG. Thanks! 🖖
Very nice, I'd like to have a room like this someday. You've got some of my favorites there!
Great. I want to build one like this
'There are so many games with plastic on them - please don't judge me'. :) You have a lovely turn of phrase and voice. I am the same so please don't judge me either. :)
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video! 💕
We've put a dent in those plastic covered games since this video! But then more games turned up!. So, back to square one 😂
Incredible. Happy Shelfie Day.
Thank you for a wonderful tour, this is how I remembered Disney land to be but even better :) And your partner is a great painter I wish I could paint half as good:)
Best compliments ever! haha. I cant wait to do an updated run through, so much has changed in the room in the last few months!
Nice collection! I also have around 650 games. You do have a little space still available it looks like, as a few of your cubbies are occupied by a single or two displayed games.
Love the shelves with the lights. I have a room with custom shelves but they don’t have the nice inner lights like yours.
I have my games organized by box type, except for my roll and writes which are places together as a genre.
When I look for a game I can remember what the box shape looks like and go from there. :)
Thanks for the video :)
We've consolidated a lot of those shelves now! so we are pretty heavily out of room. We recently started removing any expansions boxes that are empty (if they fit in the base game) and started a new shelf in the cupboard just for those! which freed up a lot of room, but still not enough. I currently have piles of misplaced games on the floor.
We're also talking about moving the RPG books into the hallway and then buying new shelves for the room to replace that one and possibly a display shelf outside of the room for some minis and favorite games!
displaying is almost as expensive as the games!
I'm hoping to do a new tour in December or so to show off the changes when they're complete!
Congrats, fantastic collection!
Wonderful... First tour I have seen in like ever. I always say I wanna do a tour for my channel AGirlGameAndAGoal, but I'm moving so looking for ideas on how to organize... But I think I will do that tour once I am settled. Thanks for the inspo.
I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I'm hoping to do an updated tour in December or so, our room changes so much Everytime new stuff turns up!
This is a reminder that you can only play one game at a time, yet if you can own all the games you may do so.
Love it! Nice tour too!
Thanks so much!
That is an amazing collection.
We love it very much!
Great collection. This is a really fun video. Love hearing which games you have strong feelings about: Santorini is the devil, Raccoon Tycoon is on the #$*! list. 😂Great stuff. And yes, you can call those games in that one section the "crap games."
Haha! Thank you! Raccoon Tycoon burnt me hard when we played and I'm not sure I'll ever recover. I'll have to suffer another play through before I fully condemn it 😂
Awesome game room ! Thanks for showing :)
Thank you for watching and commenting :D!
My problem with the billy shelves are the lack of depth. Hard to fit El Grande or pretty much anything by Mac Gerdts (with his crazy box sizes). I do very much like the corners and the ability to customize though. I generally have gone with shelves with an open back, since aesthetically I just can’t deal with overhanging boxes.
We actually like the overhang! It makes the games pop out more and makes them super accessible. A lot fewer games than you would think, actually have overhang anyways. And those that do, it's usually such a small overhang that you can't even tell by just looking in.
Maravillosa sala de juegos, horas de entretenimiento aseguradas.
Very impressive! Awesome to see.
🥰🥰
This is awesome. This is how I see my future collection one day. So many games. I love Brass, Eldritch Horror, Nidavellir, Betrayal and both versions of the Villainous games.
Do you take requests for game walkthroughs? I have this one game that is a little confusing to read from the instructions. It's a card game called "Grimslingers"
We have Grimslingers! Grimslingers and it's art was actually done by the same artist that did the art for Burger Up! But I haven't actually played it yet 🙊
I'll add it to my "to play soon" pile and see what I can do 🥰
Can you comment on the brand/make of shelves (Ikea?) that were used?
Hurt me to see yo haven't played root yet. But not having Cosmic Encounter is almost criminal.
AMAZING room. super jealous!!! and yeah raccoon tycoon is REALLY bad
I really need to play it again before I pass my final judgement, but I also, really don't want too !
Love it! How long have you had the Billy shelves? Any issues with support boards sagging? Did you assemble them as instructed or did you reinforce them in some ways? I guess many of the games stick out just a little since the shelf depth on Billy is 11 inches. Do you have anything bad to say about the Billy shelves? I'm currently searching for a storage solution and the Billy shelves are on my radar. Any comments would be appreciated!
Holy sh********t! THAT’s a lot of games
our most recent count, puts us at:
470 games
330 expansions
only a few!
Wow, cool collection. I like board games but I don't have nearly that much space for them. I probably have about 1/4th or 1/5th the board games space.
Catan is my favorite group game to play with friends.
Have you played a game called Armadora? It is small, but it is fun for 4 players.
I like classic Stratego for a 2 player game.
I haven't even heard of that one! I'll have to look it up and check it out!
It surprised me to hear that Raccoon Tycoon is on your shitlist. I absolutely love that game.
We had a really awful experience where everyone was working towards similar goals and two of us actually ended up with the exact same end game objective card.. I don'[t know if it's a misprint in the big box or what, but multiple of the exact same objective card doesn't sit right with us. That said, Its a game I was incredibly excited for, so we will be playing it again, hopefully soon, before we decide to offload it!
@@nat20au3 Oh... that is something I can defintely see happening, which is why, I believe, I always took duplicated missions out leaving only one of each to randomly distribute among players. I had varied experiences with the game, but they were all pleasant. I had some longer drawn out games, and some really short ones. There have been some rule adjustments which I have yet to check if they are present in the new rulebook, but I remember that, in order to avoid a town rush strategy a rule stating that the game ends once 2 of three 3 are emptied (town, railroado or buildings) was created. All in all I think it's a great and very fun game, light but with some economic aspect and a little bit of interaction.
Hope your next game works out better.
On a side note: there is a instant win condition in the rules stating that if someone hits 1000 gold he wins instantly, this still bugs me as I have gotten nowhere near that amount.
Also, congratulations on the game room. It's a sight to behold.
I wouldn't mind being sent one of those Burger Ups ..... lol
Keep an eye on my Instagram! We might be doing a give away of a signed copy in the near future! ;)
Amazing collection! Just curious to know what the dimensions of the table are? Thanks!
The table is: LERHAMN in black-brown (118x74 cm) from IKEA. We don't use that one for gaming often to be honest! It does the job for smaller games. But, I don't suggest it if you like big games like Agricola, Everdell or Terraforming Mars.
Well done! Absolutely perfect collection...maybe i am wrong..but do you miss brass in your collection??
We have Brass: Birmingham and Brass: Lancashire. Though I haven't played either yet!
@@nat20au3 you haven't?? I believe that after your first play of brass birmingham you will never play another game 😋
Is a beautiful place
Damnnnn!
Wow this is cool
🥰🥰
I didn't see Terra Mystica?!? or did I miss it?
lol, thats called...too many damn games.
Nice collection! Do you dust often?
Haha! We clean and organize frequently 😂
@@nat20au3 Your partner is amazing at painting! Ever considered doing some “how to” videos?
@@gadgetgirl5142 hah! I tell him that all the time, but he doesn't listen!
If you check out my Cleopatra video, he did all of the painting for that too!
@@nat20au3 Wow, that was very cool. I’d love to know how the pyramids were done to make it look “dusty”. Should convince your partner to do videos for sure!
How many games do you think you have...?
looks cool as so jelly
You'll have to come play next time you're in Brisbane!
How big is your room? Because I will be fixing a game room in my new apartment, and I need to do some measurements of what I should go for.
I'm not sure of the exact dimensions, but it's a VERY large room. It's meant to be a "Media" room. believe it or not that whole back wall is a glass sliding door, so that kind of gives an idea of how large the room really is.
However, before living in this place we did have the same set up, just smaller, in an apartment bedroom, so it's definitely do-able with limited space too!
Take a look at the BILLY bookshelves on the IKEA website and measure the room you're considering, they have a really good room planner tool where you can input your measurements and then actually put the furniture you're considering into the model to check it out!
LOL me and my husband were arguing over your accent. He thought you were Australian and lived in the US.
He said if you were Australian you would have said “s***” games not “crap” games. 🙃
Hah! very close! I'm Canadian and I live in Australia.
I can fix your storage problem, send some to me. I’m only down the road! Noice!
😂🙊
What a spectacular look at your games room! It’s good to see some of the companies that you support with your collection are ones who make attempts to be sustainable. It’s also wonderful to see someone who has a big collection of physical media rather than living in some awful little hole with just digital entertainment so they can live vicariously through some sad online presence. Whenever I have people over to play my games, I love seeing their faces when they are presented with the art, the pieces and the challenge of a chunky board game. The more the merrier!
Can I ask what you and your partner do for a living?
We work in IT and Retail!
May i know ur table size?
The table is: LERHAMN in black-brown (118x74 cm) from IKEA.
Just FYI, I am currently available for adoption. ❤️
hahah You can send applications to my instagram
