Love this quick look at the games, specifically the very short overview and then just how it 'felt' to play it for you. Also very appreciative that you mention the scores to cap off the mini-review :)

Scout! is probably one of the best card games to come out in a while. It's always been a blast and blown people's minds. I've never had it fall flat for any type of gamer and it's such a clever design.

It's sort of taking what Dealt! did and running with it, though I wouldn't be surprised if Dealt! got the idea somewhere else.

I played it over the weekend and thought it was really cool even though I did very poorly. In hindsight I think I should have passed more frequently early on and I suspect this will be a counter-intuitive approach for most people as we're conditioned to view passing as a 'lost' action. Here though, passing is how you collect resources and it also breaks up the turn orders for the reactions. If everyone simply used all their noble actions before passing then the first player will have a pretty big advantage as they'll get the lion's share of the reactions. Beyond just the core resources passing is also the primary way to earn gold which is wild and can always be kept from round to round thereby ensuring a wider variety of options are there for you whether you have direct access to a specific resource or not.

After the four squares review it became apparent that they did not have access to the actual rulebook, which would have mitigated some of their criticism (e.g. you start with some troops right from the beginning). But probably Tom Vassel played with the correct rules and just did not like it.

It seems Dark Ages printed ruelbook is outdated (at least the german version) and has no mention of starting units as well. Is Tom´s rating based on a play with or without starting units? They seem to be pretty essential for a good experience.

I think Whirling Witchcraft might be better if it were a knockout game, similar to Bullet❤️. All you need is for players whose cauldrons explode to keep the tokens that overflow, and remove that player from the game when they have 5 or over cubes. Since the game gets progressively bigger as their engines build, you can try adding +5 the knockout goal to each round as players are removed and engines get bigger.

I still find it fascinating just how different opinions can be. Im with you that Sagani is way better than Nova Luna but its still just meh for me. I feel like after 3 turns ive seen everything the game has to offer. Love the short reviews. Lets you see lots in a short amount of time.
