Quotes (from this video)
- Would not recommend.
- I feel like I must be missing something with this one because Coimbra is a game that I I I thought was fine. Like not even like good. It was just fine.
- Coimbra was a complete miss for me and my group.
- This one also did not work for me.
- It is a fast, light, simple game, but it's also not easy and it's also incredibly like so little decision making in this game.
- the game is random as far as you may get slapped in the face really, really hard in four out of five of the games and then get like a little lucky in the way things come out.
- I just think that I spent enough time on BoardGameGeek over the years that when ratings have been incentivized in some way...
- The vibe I got, like if I found out, I guess the way I'd put it is if I found out they ran a get $5 off your next purchase with us if you go rate the game on BGG, I wouldn't be surprised.
