Quotes (from this video)
  • So, Nexus, uh looking forward to the final game of this coming out.
  • That's Malice of Light Adventures.
  • It didn't blow me away. It's not one of my favorite games of the year.
  • I already have already said I love this game. I like it more than the Slay the Spire board game at this point.
  • But, still, I'm definitely excited to play it Grendel again at some point.
  • So, if that's the case, this should be a full recommend, but I already enjoyed uh what I played in the prototype.
  • But for solo tactical gaming fans who like vampires, I'm sure it'll be fun.
  • Most of the games from this company are amazing. This one's just good.
  • Even better for me than Distilled.
  • And it's a recommend if you like solo worker placement games or competitive, Luthier is great.
  • Quite enjoyed the Last Lighthouse. That is a keep for me.
  • But still a good time. I respect the design. 10B is a nice game.
  • This one was okay for me.
  • But yeah, not a keeper for me. Not my style.
  • That by itself made me like it more than the original one.
  • Uh that is another call, Unmatched Adventures, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles set.
  • This one uh was rough.
  • But Cloudspire ain't it.
  • I guess I'm keeping this one
  • I don't think the system is ever going to win me over no matter how uh popular or fun the IP is for me.
  • Without house rules, I think this is kind of broken.
  • The rest of my uh 20 Strong collection is holding me hostage.
  • So, overall a bit of a mediocre January for me.
