I've had this happen with a ton of games: * Legacy: The Testament of Duke de Crecy jumped so far up that it became one of my favorite games. I just kept on playing, getting into the storytelling of the game, learning more strategy.. and it kept on becoming a richer experience. Also with the birth event cards replacing the complications, that was a really big improvement as they have different card backs (so you know you're taking a risk) and much more variety in what can happen. * Sushi Go was also a surprise. First time I played, I hated it. But because people play it all the time, I kept on playing, and now appreciate it for the light, sweet filler that it is. Same with zombie dice - it's completely random, but it's always a good time and so I've grown to love it. * Five Tribes still gets better every time play it. First time, you're just struggling to keep the AP at bay. But the more you play, the more you get into the strategy, the more there is to love. Good expansions too, but frankly, the base game is fantastic by itself. * Village is a game I originally liked, but the Port expansion brought it to a whole new level and affected the balance of the whole game so profoundly that I refuse to play the game without it. The Inn expansion added variety for replayability, but that Port expansion is really what made the game a permanent fixture in my collection. * Scythe - have to second these from the list. First time I played, I thought Scythe was 'okay, but nothing special.' Every time I played it, though, new strategic avenues opened up to me. Then, I got to play it with all the factions playing at once and got to appreciate how amazingly fast it is even at high player counts. Then, we got better at the game and it got more and more strategic. And now a new expansion has come out and a legacy expansion is coming out - and it's now one of my absolute favorites. * Terraforming Mars - another 'good, but nothing special' game based on my initial play, but boy, I was completely wrong. We played with beginner corps the first game, but the actual corporations, and the draft, make a drastic improvement. Then, the more you play, the better you understand the cards, dynamics, relative values.. and the more cut-throat and competitive it gets. What started out as a 'let's all do our own thing' euro turned into a game where I spend other players' turns desperately hoping that the other player doesn't do X. I love it. Hellas & Elysium are a great map addition. I haven't tried Venus Next yet, because the one thing I still don't like about TM is its length... but it sounds like the new Prelude expansion may be the answer to that!

Spot on with Sam saying that about King/Queendomino creators making a game and then months later wishing they had done the thing in their game. This is suuuuuper common for most artistic creations especially including music and movies. George Lucas has a famous quote saying, “Moves aren’t released, they escape” meaning that a director would continuously edit their movie for all time if the publishers didn’t come and rip it out of their proverbial hands and put it out in the theaters. 😇

Benjamin Spears I took out all the costumes because it just doesn’t match the theme. Played it that way for years and then some friends bought their own copy and were very confused when the costumes came up.

Cthulwho? Yeah. It’s definitely breaking the theme rules, but I find that especially with kids, it’s a pretty fun edition to the game. It is more of a Halloween add on. If we were to take the theme really seriously we would probably have to get rid of the bunny, penguin, and panda too.

Definitely Merchants and Marauders for me. Only because the expansion added more depth and complexity to the game and gives you more options to victory. Still a long game with heavy emphasis on luck of your dice rolls, but more likely to get it to the table thanks to Seas of Glory.

Then I watched you guys play betrayal at baldurs gate and realized you have to play it with the right attitude.

I disagree so heavily on "King of Tokyo is pretty inexpensive" - it was definitely overpriced IMO. Great simple game, but asking for $45 (retail price) for it + $30 for the power up expansion was definitely an error for the content in the box and no one I know (not even my friends that liked it) even got close to getting it because of price factor. You could get so many great gateway and filler games for that.

For me, Hanabi would be my number one for this list. I played it the year it won the Spiel des Jahres, and I thought, °meh°. After 3 plays I shelved it as a 6. About a year ago, one of my most frequent gaming buddies was astounded, that I did not like it, and we played it. Again. And again. And I kept editing my rating on BGG... Now I rate it a 10. It will get played as the last game of the night more often then not and it still draws me in...

Sam's perspective on games seems to be understandably skewed: I love Kingdomino for what it is and it's excellent non gamer appeal, and I can see how a gamer would like Queendomino better. But there's no excessive dumbing down or what imho: the target audience is simply different. I can play Kingdomino with my parents and kids and we all get to enjoy it. Queendomino would never fly in that context. Already too complex.
