Quotes (from this video)
  • The most expensive game that I own is frankly a huge anomaly in my board game collection because that's Foundations of Rome.
  • It's a showstopping game. It does something fantastic, which is it's a huge box, but it doesn't make the setup any longer to be bloodily long to set up.
  • To me, that one game was an investment that I'll have probably for the rest of my life and I'll be able to play and enjoy.
  • Is $200 worth of components and value and craft in this game? Maybe.
  • The price per evening at that point gets lower and lower until you're thinking, 'Wow, this game gave me a month's worth of Nights Out, but spent in playing the game for $5 a pop.'
  • Foundations of Rome is in my top 10 games of all time.
