Quotes (from this video)
- My rating's going to be get regular Codenames instead. It's a better game system.
- I would say that overall the game is cute, charming, easy to play, fairly accessible.
- Overall, I enjoy it. The biggest critique I have is for a game that's kind of has this low stakes to it.
- But it's a three out of five. It's a decent game. I had a fun time with it. But it's one of those games that once you play it two or three times, you've kind of seen everything the game has to offer.
- So I wanted to like this one, but I found it more of a frustrating experience to visually take in everything that's going on the table.
- Gloomhaven is easily my favorite game on this table with a fun little planting system as well as harvesting system and multiple things you're trying to do as you balance all those needs.
- And then lastly, Harry Potter Codenames Back to Hogwarts, as much as I do enjoy it, I just would rather play Codenames, regular Codenames, any day of the week.
