Quotes (from this video)
- I just don't think Planet B. I just think, uh, another Euro style game.
- Silly balancing dexterity game for kids.
- It was kind of disappointing to me that you have to go through box by box.
- This is essentially a Voltron style game where you are fighting for control of different factions, but you each have two of these gigantic robots that will show up at battles and fight.
- So, I guess I only played the original one. There's some silly fun to it, but it gets old a little quickly.
- This is a deduction adventure game in medieval Europe.
- You know he's evil because it's in the name and it's a decent lighter weight cooperative game.
- When I found you just connecting these different spots with groups of pirates, man, I didn't like this game.
- It looks bad. It's placing dice on these cards. It's just a mess.
- It's a smaller deck builder, so and I gave it a seven.
- Kings and Things. You look at this and there's a bunch of chits of different kinds of creatures on a grid-like map, a hexagonal map. It's one of the first ones to have a peaceable hexagonal map. In fact, it might be the first one.
- Silly, silly game.
- This is a a a uh very light deduction game. Maybe a little too light for me.
- Talk about trying to make a game that no one wants to buy.
- My favorite of this bunch is probably Starship Samurai.
