Quotes (from this video)
- it is my favorite game of the year and probably of many years
- just for bringing slay the Spire kind of accurately like adapting it so well to the tabletop I would be so so impressed just with that
- the fact that we can also play it cooperatively and that like ra can join me on these runs just makes it Excel just makes it sing
- I can't fault it in any way whatsoever
- there's so many good things it's really hard to cut it down
- we're starting out with number 10 but I'm going to say the numbers wrong in a minute because I'm reading off a spreadsheet and I've done row numbers wrong
- I mainly play solo or two players uh and a lot of the two players is not exclusively but a lot of it is cooperative games
- if they are competitive then there is little to zero like negative interaction between the players no Fighting No Stealing anything like that have zero interest in doing that against another player

Quotes (from this video)
- You like a game, you better buy it because it might not be available soon.
- This is the reason I went all in on the um Marvel United uh multiverse because I wanted this mini and it was like I don't remember what it was in, but I'm like, "I'm getting it."
- It's a weird one and it's I think it's just you can't you got to really read it carefully.
- My problem is is what happens is you get stuff looking like they have a 5:00 shadow.
- The contrast medium helps to lessen the intensity of the color.
- The way contrast paints and speed paints are designed to be done is you just paint them over a bright undercoating.
- I really like this paint. I was disappointed initially until I realized you need to use the contrast medium to lessen the intensity of the color.
- It makes the game much more exciting and immersive.
- The eye dropper bottles are the best and they have problems because they get clogged up and you if you're not careful, you make a giant mess.

- the unique thing about being a content creator about working in this board game Space is that we are always playing previewing and prepping content on games that still haven't arrived
- I would argue that most of these games probably at least six or seven of these games would be on my official top 10 list of 2024 if I had only gotten them to the table in the first place
- so slay the Spire is coming to the channel very very soon it is still one of the 10 games I desperately want to obsess over

Thematic elements

- cooperative combat and mission resolution — Heroes use punches, feats, and equipment to defeat thugs, rescue civilians, and clear events; missions drive progression and determine victory when completed.
- timeline card play — Players commit cards into a central timeline; symbols on the bottom of a card influence actions, and subsequent players gain access to both their own and the previous card's bottom effects.
