Quotes (from this video)
- making the strong hard hard decisions of which game beats which game, which is really hard when each game is really in a different genre, different class, different weight, different play time, solo, co-op, all of that.
- It's fast, mean, uh, and very easy to take to a pub.
- The AE app tells you kind of where you need to go.
- So a very crunchy um Euro. Definitely one that we want to play again.
- But it it replaces Fantasy Realm mainly because of the theme, right? I like Marvel. Most of my games that we buy and I enjoy the most are Marvel because that theme helps the game even if it's pasted on like it for a small part is here.

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Card game — It's a simple card game where players start the game with seven cards in their hand. At the end of their each turn, they have to end with seven cards in their hand and at the end of the game they will still only have seven cards in their hand.
- Deck building (implied) — Players are drawing a card either from the decks. There's two different decks, there's a Hero deck and a Villain deck.
- Hand Management — Players must end their turn with seven cards in hand. Requirement to have at least one hero and one villain by the end of the game.
- Set Collection (for scoring) — These different cards are going to combo with one another. Each of them intrinsically offer a certain amount of victory points but they also have some different ways of comboing with each other depending on different icons or symbols that are in each card. If you get certain icons to match with others or if you get different pairs or combinations of these different icons, you'll get more points.

Quotes (from this video)
- Citadels is an absolute classic and has been in my collection now for I think almost 25 years.
- There's just so much game packed in such a tiny little box.
- Citadels ask you to adapt not just to the players around the table and what their behaviors are and what their needs are, but also to the small hand of cards you draw from a large pool of building cards.
- Castle Combo is a nine-card tableau builder where you spend coins to buy villagers and nobles from a shared market and slot them into a 3x3 grid.
- This game is constantly through the simplest rule set and limited decision space forcing you to make immense trade-offs and decisions.
- it makes every turn feel meaningful despite the fact that you're only drafting from like six cards.
- I'm incentivized to pay close attention to what my opponent is doing which is something you rarely get in these sort of like much larger and more complicated tableau builders.
- If you want to join my Patreon, then I could have got the money to hire Rick Moranis.
- I have been on a tear now going through small box board games and just replaying a bunch of them because I want to make the biggest tier list video I have ever made.

Quotes (from this video)
- Heroes that's the definition anyway.
- two best things I think about that game first one is the way you combine and can like do combos with your deck and you have to kind of know your deck and the second one is how the monster reacts to what you do you always will see the reactions that the monster will do he will only react if you poke him right the wrong way.
- it's a filler game not necessarily super simple but I think it's mostly quick.
- on your turn you get a card with a QR code that you scan and music starts playing you have to guess the year the song came out and you have to place it in a timeline.
- it's great because everybody can relate to music.
