Quotes (from this video)
- So, I don't know why this one really um kind of grabbed my attention since I saw this one. It does sound like a complete random luckfest, but it does seem to have a certain charm and appeal to me.
- You know, I tend to like deduction games, although I do think it's an oversaturated genre of games, but this one sounds different enough to stand out and stand away from the pack.
- So, I'm quite proud of myself that I didn't jump straight into getting that one when I first played Concordia because I played the the base game alone quite a few times now. So, I think I'm ready for an expansion.
- And I always thought it was quite or these lists are quite funny because I go in with a plan, but I'll come back with a a random arrangement of completely different games, no doubt.
