Quotes (from this video)
- I've got a real treat for you today.
- They are delightful.
- This is a nice slim book with eight different games that I will play that I can probably play with my husband side by side or I can just pass him the book and then he can play after me.
- This is just like playing um a print and play, but you get the book version or you can get those PDFs and then print them out yourself.
- This is delightful. This is fun.
- Dynamite shift from Dr. C. Finn as opposed to printing games that require boxes and components and pieces, he has moved to essentially just these print and plays, these online platforms to essentially get you those fantastic games and the designs that he's made in an accessible, affordable fashion.
- I think it's a really really great shift, a really great move. Um and I couldn't be happier with this book.

Quotes (from this video)
- So, um, and a special thank you to the creator of this, Dr. Finn, for sending me a copy of this to cover on my channel.
- So, um, this is uh solo, but it could work multiplayer if you wanted to. You just have to, you know, compare the scores and then if you want more, they do encourage you to sign up for the newsletter and then you can get PDFs from the site.
- So, um, I did end up playing one page so far of the first game.
- So, um, and I did it lightly in pencil.
- So, um, as I'm flipping through here, you'll notice there's a lot of pages that are blank on the left side, right? It's only one-sided print um for the game sheets, and I feel like it was a missed opportunity.
- So, um, I feel like this this book could either happen a lot shorter, you know, less pages printed if they used thicker paper and double-sided printed it, but I'm sure there was a business reason or manufacturing printing reason that I'm not thinking of why they did it this way.
- Um, again, I do think this is kind of like the perfect gift for like a solo board gamer or even just anybody who enjoys playing, you know, things like crossword puzzles or word searches.
- This is kind of that level up in terms of something they can do themselves out of a workbook.
- Um, and thank you again to Dr. Finn for sending me a copy of this.
