I love these huge compilation videos you make to cover a general subject with curated recommendations for related sub-categories! Caper: Europe is a favorite head-to-head game for us, and also the personal-puzzle game Patchwork is one of the early games that got us into the hobby, and we still play it many years later!

I'm so happy to see you included Arboretum. My husband and I have been playing this game at least 4x/week for the past 2 years. Yes, we have tons of other games we also enjoy playing, but this endlessly varying/challenging game keeps us evenly pitted against one another in a fun way. We love that it's a fast play (about 30 minutes), and we also enjoy the relatively novel mechanic that makes it just as important to keep trees as it is to use or discard them. Thanks also for introducing us to some new options to add to our collection! Great video!

This video is just perfectly made! Playtime, complexity and having it categorized are all being super helpful. And finally (subjective) me and my partner just realized there are other board games out there than Monopoly and Scrabble, so this guide fits us perfectly A potential thing you could add in the future would be game size on board. We live in a small flat, and some games are just too big for us to place down on the table. But I'm unable to know before I check multiple pictures on BGG, saving me from a "bad buy".

Thank you for highlighting many so different games. I usually look for games with interesting mechanics and don't care much about the theme, while my partner's interest relies greatly on theme. This way I'm able to get an idea if I would enjoy playing it or not, and I can pitch the ones I'm interested in to her. We recently picked up Star Wars: the clone wars (another Pandemic System game, which seems similar to Fall of Rome in how you describe it) and tried Sea Salt and Paper in a board game cafe, which we both enjoyed a ton!
