Quotes (from this video)
- I just got back from the UK Games Expo. I had a great time as always and I just wanted to make a quick video talking about all of the games that I acquired during the expo.
- The brig and buy was was great, but it was very chaotic and long long cues and longer than we've had before.
- So, definitely um was at capacity. Yeah, the brig and buy was was great, but it was very chaotic and long long cues and longer than we've had before.
- So, I definitely recommend going at least once if you have the faintest bit of interest.
- But for everybody else, I'll see you next time on Chairman of the Board. Bye-bye.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is where I rank and review five new to me board games in order of preference.
- It's a little bit too um I say swingy, but it's a little bit too obvious at times and sometimes if you're doing really well, it's it's very easy to get like a a snowball effect going where you can keep on guessing correctly because information becomes clearer and clearer and one person tends to snowball and win the game by quite some distance.
- If I want to play a blackjack variant, then so many other games have done it to a much higher standard.
- It all boils down to what cards in your hand is a pure luck fest.
- The game gets out of its own way. It doesn't focus on mechanisms or silly little tricks. It's all about using that information to do the fun part, which is the deduction.
- The twist on this game is that the cards played in the previous round will be the scoring cards for the next round.
- So, very clever stuff.
- I just like those little nuances, those little niche rules that just make this one kind of just just pique my interest a little bit more than there would be if this game was just a simple shedding game.
- I just think this game does everything the original does, but with a bit more interest and and even more fun.
- But on the downside, the actual tile racks in this game are nowhere near as good as the original because they're just cardboard fold overs.
- So I can't praise this one enough.
