Quotes (from this video)
  • Finga Golf was a game where you hit the golf ball with a little golf club on your finger. It's kind of big and giant. It's okay. Six out of 10.
  • Nature. This is the big new game version of Evolution. Evolution has been made quite a few times. I think I liked it fine. Seven out of 10. I think if I play the expansions, I like it more.
  • Sumo. A weird two-player trick-taking game that somehow works amazingly well in a small little package. It's almost too weird to love it, but I do like it. Seven out of 10.
  • Please don't burn my village. This is from Fireside Games and you're playing cards and moving up values. It's almost like a very, very light economic game and I enjoy it. 7.5.
  • Shadow Sea. Beautiful game. Um I think it it's prettier. I'd rather play it than Cascadia, but they're kind of in the same bucket. If you like one, you might like the other. 7.5.
  • Waddle, a little game from All Play that I really enjoyed about trying to make groups of penguins in controlled numbers, but also it has this weird little marble thing to see who goes next, which is a very it's a gimmick, but it works really well, but the game play is what attracts me and eight out of 10.
  • So, those are all the games I reviewed 1, 5, 10, and 20 years ago. Thanks so much for watching.
  • If you really like what we're doing here at The Dice Tower, then there are different ways to support The Dice Tower.
  • Tell your friends about The Dice Tower.
