Have recently gotten into the board game space. Catan was my gateway game. I am completely hooked. This community is amazing. I love seeing it bring people together. I never have so much fun as I do playing games with friends. So thank you to creators like you for inspiring the next generation. Love your content. Can't wait to see whats to come. 🐺
I like the combination of your different playstyles in the review, it has help us my wife and I to make better informed decisions for our list! much love from Germany! 🐺
You two are so amazing and natural together on camera!! Love the list, so many wonderful games that overlap our current top 10!! We’re going to have to try Hadrian’s Wall and Caverna, two we haven’t gotten to yet. Also, totally guessed Seize the Bean correctly! ☕️ ☺️
Awh thank you guys! 🥰 I need to convince Francis to be in more videos. He's slowly coming around. 😏 And amazing! Love that we have so many fav games in common. Definitely recommend Hadrian's Wall and Caverna! Fantastic games!
@@TheBoardGameGarden - yes, I compliment you both on your natural chemistry together and thanks for the recommendation for Hadrian’s Wall which I just purchased !
One great thing about board gaming is that it opens our world to amazing people, things and experiences. Keep doing these fantastic work as you inspire a lot to celebrate board gaming in best way possible. We're learning while having so much good time. 2022 is indeed a special year for us! Cheers to more breakthroughs in 2023. 🐺
🐺 I just entered the board game world almost 2 years ago now and LOVE what it does for my family. It brings us together with interaction, cooperation, competition, and laughter! 🐺 Thx for creating amazing content like this!! Excited to see what's next for the hobby!! 🐺
I had posted my predictions for your Top 10 in the comments of the 20-11 video, and I did all right. 7 of the 10 games I listed made your Top 10, but the only one I had in the right spot was Concordia at #3. I guessed Near and Far for your #1, so I was close (You could say I was so Near and yet, so Far) Great video! 🐺
Awesome list! So many great games highlighted that I STILL haven't gotten to the table yet (Everdell and Viticulture, here's looking at you...). Interestingly, I (for now, anyway) find it pretty easy to sort out my top 10. Beyond that (or maybe even right around #'s 9 and 10), it gets a little murky, but at the moment I'd have to say... 1) Wingspan 2) Ticket to Ride 3) Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion 4) Fury of Dracula 5) Vagrantsong 6) Dune Imperium 7) The Bloody Inn (specifically w/ The Carnies expansion mixed in) 8) Betrayal at House on the Hill 9) Disney Villainous 10) The Fox in the Forest
Yes! Love seeing The Bloody Inn on people’s top lists. The Carnies is a great expansion. I sometimes leave out the events because they are so harsh and chaotic! 😂
I love watching top 10 videos to see insights on cool games, but also I’ve only played four of these but now I MUST have them all!! Everdell, Viticulture, Brass Birmingham, and Spirit Island are absolutely deserving of being on this list though 🐺
Love this top 10 list!! I have so many of the same games , for me Brass Birmingham is the current one I am hooked on! I wasn’t very familiar with your channel but loved your segment on the fire and ice awards, you have got a new fan for sure! All the best 🐺
Jenna! You know how much I adore you and your videos! Been with you since the beginning of your journey here at the Board Game Garden! But because I not only want to win a game from the famous Tim Chuon 🐺 I also want to tell you how amazing of a job you are doing! I know the time it takes to be a creator and I absolutely smile EVERY time (or laugh) watching your videos! Love you! 🐺
I really love Sleeping Gods and have become quite the Ryan Laukat fanboy recently. I knew Above and Below, Near and Far, and Now or Never existed but didn't really look into them before seeing them pop up in your videos again and again. So a few weeks back I actually ordered the entire trilogy (plus Roam for good measure) and these games are just so nice. Thanks a bunch for pointing these out to me!
you need the Iron Clays - Poker Chips for a money replacement in games like Brass, it feels so much more satisfying using these heavy chips instead of cardboard
Thanks for the video! I really enjoy viewing and reading about peoples' top games. Its interesting to see what game mechanics people prefer and discover new things about games. That being said, a couple of my favorite games are included in your top 10, so I guess great minds think alike! 🐺🐺
I've already seen this one, but I am here to do one of these: 🐺 I am fascinated by your choice for the reward. I don't think I have seen anyone else talk about that one, but you talk about it a lot! It must deserve another look. It looks super cool.
Yay more Francis and gald to see he likes Spirit Island! Jagged earth is such a fun addition if he really wants to take a dive into the game. Thanks for sharing! 🐺
This kind of videos help me to understand the game more. And also as a new content creator this kind of videos gives me and new ideas and learn how other people do a review, how to play and other thing that help us understand the hobby. 🐺
Cascadia. Got it for Christmas and been forcing myself to play it to try to like it. This turned around when I started playing scenarios…GAME CHANGER! I need that push to beat something. Now it’s a great game in my book.
Newer subscriber here! 👋🏽 I actually found your channel a few weeks ago looking for some solo games and stayed for the cozy vibes 🥰 love the vibes your content brings and can’t wait to see more. I’m a newer board game player too! Keep it up! ❤ 🐺
Been watching the garden from the start!! You are my chill mornings coffee board game videos!! Love that you were a part of the fire and Ice awards!! You so deserve and have earned it!
🐺Hi Jenna! It was so great to see you on the awards video! I remember you were emotional about taking a step back from your planning and focusing on board games, but girl you're killing it! You made the right decision! Merry Christmas to you and Francis and Penny.
9:52 I am completely with you there, Francis! I just can’t mentally get myself to setup a game just to play it with a friend called myself. Maybe if it is a small game - that would be one I could try it with.
Great video, thank you! I share many of these. Still haven't tried Hadrian's Wall, but I think I need to. Great color coordination. Frosthaven is coming tomorrow, I'm so excited. 🐺🥳
Honestly I have very much enjoyed the awesome and sweet videos this channel has created. I watch a lot of board game content and once I discovered this channel, I found myself coming back to it over and over because of the calm and somewhat different content. It was so cool to watch you join Tim Chuon and all those other content creators for that epic board games of the year video! So amazing to see you all come together.
I love seeing people collaborate and come together in the board game space. It's always great when I find new creators because everyone brings their own special something to the table. 🐺
Subscribed just for penny 😂😂 awesome list and now I really gotta try gloomhaven! It’s been on my radar forever but you probably just pushed me over the edge haha. Looking forward to watching more vids of penny, I mean you guys 😊🐺
🐺 Cascadia and EVERDELL are just some of my fav comfort games. The art. The vibe. Everything makes me happy playing them. Happy to find a new gaming channel to watch from the Fire and Ice award video!
I love how when you joked about cheating on him with Hadrian, Francis just got this twinkle in his eye and started waving his big, heavy game around "HAHA your TINY, WIMPY game cannot compare to my MANLY MONSTROSITY OF DUNGEON CRAWLING MADNESS!"
🐺 I have been a part of the Board Game Garden for a while now, and it’s so refreshing to see a Canadian representing us in the board game space so we’ll. Your favourite game for the fire and ice award ceremony looks very interesting and looks like a game that I would also love. Keep up the amazing work Jenna, and I hope that you and Francis have a wonderful Christmas!! 🐺
I have so many I enjoy lately. Lost Ruins of Arnak, Space Base, and Nemesis are 3 that come to mind immediately. 🐺 Great video with great options! Keep up the great work!
This was fantastic to watch! I love seeing the family all together and I was dying laughing at the beginning 😂 Let's goooo boy! I love seeing the similarities and differences within our top 10 list. I think there is one game in particular that you would really enjoy playing solo once you get the chance 😉. It’s just crazy cause of you this game is also on my top 10, you know the one 😂. More Francis please 😬 I love seeing him on the channel and it's was great to see that we have a lot in common when it comes to gaming. I, unfortunately, could not guess the top two games 😅 for both of you, but I did get one correct. Taking away from your video I also learned that I could incorporate some more B rolls in my own UA-cam videos so seeing this helps me and I really appreciate the time and effort you put into making your videos and working on your channel. One of my favorite games as of now is Come Together 😄 this game is absolutely fantastic, and I know you would like it, but it's super hard to find right now, just like another game on your list. I am looking forward to seeing your top 20 solo games.
HAHA Francis is so funny. I'm hoping he agrees to be in some more videos. Everyone seems to enjoy him being in them. 😊 Yeah I was actually going to say that for some advice on your videos. More b-roll! I have discovered over the past few months viewers appreciate being able to see the components while you talk about a game. The b-roll is probably the most time consuming part of the video process but it is so worth it if you can make the time for it. Just watching your video on Come Together! It was great! Loved the little skit at the beginning. Definitely stick with the skits! It makes your unique and stick out from the crowd which is great! 👏🏻Thanks for watching Rich!
Kind of already left a comment on this video in the past but I'll drop another for the wolf pack haha 🐺 Jenna, glad you got to be a part of Tim's award show! You're very deserving. I haven't played merchants of the dark road yet but I'm excited to play it even more now if it was your top of 2022!
So glad I stumbled into this channel! Your top 10 video has the most similar games that are in my top 10 (or top ones I want to try since I’m pretty new to the hobby). I love the editing and b-roll and vibe of this channel. Thank you so much for sharing and creating these videos. New subscriber and excited to see more! Cheers and best wishes!
🐺 Happy to have found a new channel to follow thanks to the Fire & Ice awards! Excited to go through some of your past recommendation videos. I've always wanted to try Everdell, just haven't been able to get it yet.
🐺 so grateful to get to now your channel after watching the video over Tim's channel 🤣 you deserve all the new subs that will come 🤗 I'm curious to see what you show next in your Garden 🐺😋
Some interesting choices. I am not a fan with most of them, but it’s nice to see different lists as too many are predictable but not this one. I can see why so many were in your top 10.
🐺 Found this channel through the awards show, and I'm so excited to be able to see more! This is such a great community, and it's been so awesome to see all the support for each other. 😊
I was not convinced the first couple games I played. I had no clue what I was doing. This video's best advice is "you don't have to complete everything". Enjoy trying new things
🐺 Hi Francis and Jenna! It's great to find more content creators like you in the hobby! I appreciate the light hearted energy, and fun you bring into your videos. It truly feels like you're endlessly fascinated and exploring each and every game. Also love your board games on wheels videos that show how you make time for gaming in your lives. It's quite inspiring and makes me want to just foster a new gaming group myself. Looking forward to watching more of your content in 2023 and beyond! Happy Holidays!
My wife has been subscribed to the channel for quite some time now. Thank you for providing information, education and entertainment in our household! Our board game collection is top tier because of you! 😄🐺
I love discovering new BG creators and your charm and honest passion shone through during the Fire and Ice awards. Can't wait to continue exploring your content and wish you and your family a fun and successful 2023! 🐺
Oh man! I've heard so much about Near and Far. And now it's on both of your top 10 lists. Really want to try that one out. Thanks for the video! Happy holidays! 🐺
1)Fort 2)Scythe 3)Firetower 4)Marvel/Xmen United 5)Lost ruins of Arnak 6)Root 7)Massive Darkness 2 8)Radlands 9)Cascadia 10)Berried Treasure I could see Merchants of the dark road, Painted Roses, 5211, are close contenders but need more play. Dice Throne Adventures if I could table it more. Hope I can get Batman Gotham City Chronicles back to the when season 3 arrives in a year or so.
Awesome to see you apart of the favourite games award ceremony over on Tim's channel. Not surprised by your choice as favourite game of 2022. It looked amazing on that table. 🐺

Penny is adorable 😍 I would have definitely put Everdell, Welcome To and Wingspan in my list as well! And Hadrian's wall?! Magnificent game!! Great list!! 🐺
loved seeing you in the collab on Tim Chuons channel! all of my favorite content creators all in the same video was great to see, I could tell everyone had a great time!
It's kinda crazy how so many people I already follow were a part of the collaboration! I love this list and I think it's a great 'crunchy' game round up! 🐺
That was such a great Award show! It was so cool to see all of you guys come together and celebrate great board games. I learned so much and there are some new games on my wish list now🐺 my favorite board games of all time are Lost Ruins of Arnak, Wingspan and ark nova :)
My top 5 games are: 1. Viticulture 2. Spirit Island 3. Wingspan 4. The Bloody Inn 5. Radlands A game that will VERY likely be top 3 when I play it more is Wonderland's War.
@@TheBoardGameGarden It is somewhat macabre (since you’re killing guests 😅), but it’s actually a very interesting puzzle about how to optimize your income through drafting, hand management and tableau building. But the theme might not appeal to you! Check out a video beforehand.
Holy cow! It's great seeing that your favorite game has been Hadrian's wall! That has been one of my favorites as well! It's the game I go to for solo gaming because it's pretty dang similar whether playing with someone or not haha great top 10 guys! Keep up the great work in this wonderful hobby! 🐺
Great list, from both of you! I enjoy exploring new games and your top 10 gives me a lot of inspiration to look into some of them. You have a great collection, please keep building it and tellung us about it.
20)Western Legends 19)Doppelt So Clever 18) Red Cathedral 17) Viticulture 16) Arnak 15) Rokoko 14) Terraforming Mars 13) Orleans 12) Castles of Burgundy 11) Wingspan 10) Terramara 9) Maracaibo 8) Ark Nova 7) La Granja 6) Clank 5) Praga Caput Regni 4) Underwater Cities 3) Lorenzo 2) Grand Austria Hotel 1) Trismegistus Games that would probably be in but have only played online. Carnegie, First Class, Marco Polo 2, Caverna
Hadrian's wall!! Great choice. This has been a surprise hit with my family, although me mom always calls it Hadrian's closet haha. Great list both of you! 🐺
Thank you for this great list! Since I'm commenting already (and it takes a lot for me to do that) let me also say that I love this channel and your approach to boardgames -- with a lot of heart and lightnes, without self-importance. Now I'm encouraged to try roll and writes with my wife! And of course, when Jason threw in Black & White, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, etc (staples of my childhood), that was icing on the cake :)
Have recently gotten into the board game space. Catan was my gateway game. I am completely hooked. This community is amazing. I love seeing it bring people together.

You have the most soothing voice ever talking about games. I usually watch your recommendations drinking tea. It's therapy. 🐺
I like the combination of your different playstyles in the review, it has help us my wife and I to make better informed decisions for our list! much love from Germany! 🐺
You two are so amazing and natural together on camera!! Love the list, so many wonderful games that overlap our current top 10!! We’re going to have to try Hadrian’s Wall and Caverna, two we haven’t gotten to yet. Also, totally guessed Seize the Bean correctly! ☕️ ☺️
Awh thank you guys! 🥰 I need to convince Francis to be in more videos. He's slowly coming around. 😏 And amazing! Love that we have so many fav games in common. Definitely recommend Hadrian's Wall and Caverna! Fantastic games!
@@TheBoardGameGarden - yes, I compliment you both on your natural chemistry together and thanks for the recommendation for Hadrian’s Wall which I just purchased !

9) Disney Villainous
10) The Fox in the Forest
Yes! Love seeing The Bloody Inn on people’s top lists. The Carnies is a great expansion. I sometimes leave out the events because they are so harsh and chaotic! 😂
love how these games encourage family time!
I love watching top 10 videos to see insights on cool games, but also I’ve only played four of these but now I MUST have them all!! Everdell, Viticulture, Brass Birmingham, and Spirit Island are absolutely deserving of being on this list though 🐺

Been a subscriber since early on 🐺
The quality of your videos and B-roll is top notch. All videos need this quality

I really love Sleeping Gods and have become quite the Ryan Laukat fanboy recently. I knew Above and Below, Near and Far, and Now or Never existed but didn't really look into them before seeing them pop up in your videos again and again.
So a few weeks back I actually ordered the entire trilogy (plus Roam for good measure) and these games are just so nice. Thanks a bunch for pointing these out to me!
you need the Iron Clays - Poker Chips for a money replacement in games like Brass, it feels so much more satisfying using these heavy chips instead of cardboard
Thanks for the video! I really enjoy viewing and reading about peoples' top games. Its interesting to see what game mechanics people prefer and discover new things about games. That being said, a couple of my favorite games are included in your top 10, so I guess great minds think alike! 🐺🐺
I've already seen this one, but I am here to do one of these: 🐺
I am fascinated by your choice for the reward. I don't think I have seen anyone else talk about that one, but you talk about it a lot! It must deserve another look. It looks super cool.
Just learned about your channel from Tim Chuon's video, and it looks great! Can't wait to start watching even more of your videos! 🐺
Yay more Francis and gald to see he likes Spirit Island! Jagged earth is such a fun addition if he really wants to take a dive into the game. Thanks for sharing! 🐺
8 games out of the ten that I haven't played! Still have some way to go! Thanks for sharing! 🐺
This kind of videos help me to understand the game more. And also as a new content creator this kind of videos gives me and new ideas and learn how other people do a review, how to play and other thing that help us understand the hobby. 🐺
Cascadia. Got it for Christmas and been forcing myself to play it to try to like it.
This turned around when I started playing scenarios…GAME CHANGER! I need that push to beat something.
Now it’s a great game in my book.

Many great games on here. And I feel like the ones I have not played, I should based on the others you and I really enjoy.
I love end of the year lists. it helps to understand the reviewer's tastes and to discover games i would otherwise overlook. 🐺
🐺 I have been a part of the Board Game Garden for a while now, and it’s so refreshing to see a Canadian representing us in the board game space so we’ll.

🐺 just recently talking to a friend about how we like your videos. Great year of content!
I thought I was subscribed already to you both! Well at least I am now! Thanks for being in the awards ceremony. Love seeing you all there! 🐺
🐺 Glad to have found your channel...looking forward to watching frequently...new to gaming always looking for information on games.
FINE. I’ll actually PLAY the copy of Hadrian’s wall you convinced me to buy that I’ve been too scared to learn.
Do it, it's great. Just play it solo to get the feel. No pressure from others then.
I was not convinced the first couple games I played. I had no clue what I was doing. This video's best advice is "you don't have to complete everything". Enjoy trying new things
What a great list for a top 10 I love how who you all play with plays into what went into your top ten. All about the memories 🐺
Great video and great lists. I have to try Hadrian’s wall one day. Keep up the great work 🐺
🐺 Hi Francis and Jenna! It's great to find more content creators like you in the hobby! I appreciate the light hearted energy, and fun you bring into your videos. It truly feels like you're endlessly fascinated and exploring each and every game. Also love your board games on wheels videos that show how you make time for gaming in your lives. It's quite inspiring and makes me want to just foster a new gaming group myself.
Looking forward to watching more of your content in 2023 and beyond! Happy Holidays!
I feel like just as much of an imposter / newbie in this BG hobby! Awesome seeing you on Tim's channel and what a hilarious intro to this vid 🐺
Jenna, I have that SAME glitter pumpkin. but mine is white haha 😂okay back to watching the video
AWH! Kind of jealous you found a white one! Wanna trade? 😂
Recent follower, but it was great to see you on the Fire & Ice awards with Tim Chuon 🐺
Also great lists by the way. My #1 is currently Dead Reckoning.
Have to watch all your videos now, I hope the pup is your audience for all of them lol 🐺
Thanks for selling me on Welcome To! Have had so much fun with it and love the option of the seasonal expansions! 🐺
My wife has been subscribed to the channel for quite some time now. Thank you for providing information, education and entertainment in our household! Our board game collection is top tier because of you! 😄🐺

I love discovering new BG creators and your charm and honest passion shone through during the Fire and Ice awards. Can't wait to continue exploring your content and wish you and your family a fun and successful 2023! 🐺
Your dog is adorable! I need to hug it. I have not yet tried Hadrian wall. I probably should with everything I keep hearing about it.
Oh man! I've heard so much about Near and Far. And now it's on both of your top 10 lists. Really want to try that one out. Thanks for the video! Happy holidays! 🐺
Amazing pick! for the award show. I was not familiar with Merchants of the Dark Road, but wow! #🐺
1)Fort
2)Scythe
3)Firetower
4)Marvel/Xmen United
5)Lost ruins of Arnak
6)Root
7)Massive Darkness 2
8)Radlands
9)Cascadia
10)Berried Treasure
I could see Merchants of the dark road, Painted Roses, 5211, are close contenders but need more play. Dice Throne Adventures if I could table it more. Hope I can get Batman Gotham City Chronicles back to the when season 3 arrives in a year or so.
You two are adorable together. Thanks for the video! I really enjoy your channel.

You two are adorable. Love the wholesome back and forth and energy you have. Thanks for the smiles! Subscribed!
loved seeing you in the collab on Tim Chuons channel! all of my favorite content creators all in the same video was great to see, I could tell everyone had a great time!
First time I've seen seize the bean on a top 10 list, might have to actually try out my copy.
It's kinda crazy how so many people I already follow were a part of the collaboration! I love this list and I think it's a great 'crunchy' game round up! 🐺
Totally agree with gloomhaven. I have been wanting to try near and far 🐺
That was such a great Award show! It was so cool to see all of you guys come together and celebrate great board games. I learned so much and there are some new games on my wish list now🐺 my favorite board games of all time are Lost Ruins of Arnak, Wingspan and ark nova :)
My top 5 games are:
1. Viticulture
2. Spirit Island
3. Wingspan
4. The Bloody Inn
5. Radlands
A game that will VERY likely be top 3 when I play it more is Wonderland's War.
I guess I need to really try The Bloody Inn! I love all the other games on your list. 😊
@@TheBoardGameGarden It is somewhat macabre (since you’re killing guests 😅), but it’s actually a very interesting puzzle about how to optimize your income through drafting, hand management and tableau building. But the theme might not appeal to you! Check out a video beforehand.
Holy cow! It's great seeing that your favorite game has been Hadrian's wall! That has been one of my favorites as well! It's the game I go to for solo gaming because it's pretty dang similar whether playing with someone or not haha great top 10 guys! Keep up the great work in this wonderful hobby! 🐺
I would definitely visit the Boardgame Garden Cafe! Thanks for making these videos and the great coverage on interesting fantastic games.
What a dream that would be! 😊 And awww you are so welcome! Thank you for the support!
Great great video as usual. Today I am here for a chance of winning a great game. 🐺
Great choices of games, not a single dud in there! 🐺

Hadrian's wall!! Great choice. This has been a surprise hit with my family, although me mom always calls it Hadrian's closet haha. Great list both of you! 🐺
Thank you for this great list!
Since I'm commenting already (and it takes a lot for me to do that) let me also say that I love this channel and your approach to boardgames -- with a lot of heart and lightnes, without self-importance. Now I'm encouraged to try roll and writes with my wife!
And of course, when Jason threw in Black & White, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, etc (staples of my childhood), that was icing on the cake :)
🐺 I found your channel a few months ago and I really like your videos. Thank you!
Dig the vibe you're going for Jenna! Way to put in the work and make it look effortless. 🐺
Great awards video!!! Also just subscribed to your channel :) 🐺
