Quotes (from this video)
- We have 11 new games for you today. So if you haven't seen these episodes before, it's a mini review and also we decide whether to keep or call it out of the collection.

- The spatial puzzle in itself I didn't find very interesting.
- It's a solid good game. I just don't need to to own it.
- It was 40 minutes, four players and a lot of great gameplay. there.

- The goal of the game is to help the animals and guide them to safely back to their home after the animals have secretly snuck out the zoo at night and they're trying to find their way back.

- Forester relies on a dual worker placement system in which players control a harvester and a manager each with distinct responsibilities.

- Players act as urban planners, building a sustainable transit network to connect riders to their destinations before the supply of tiles runs out.
- what appealed to me is just it looks really cute and simple.

Quotes (from this video)
- I do like the fact that it's um don't be the loser and there's no actual winner in a game that I think is quite cool.
- And I found this to be like really interesting. Like this was a cool twist on the trick taker.
- It's got a German name with Japanese writing on the back. It was kind of weird.
- But this just felt too random.
- I just felt like it's not really a strategic game. It's just basically the dice are going to dictate what you can do.
- I just found it a bit boring and found it underwhelming when everything resolved, you know.
- The expo is getting to the point where it's pricing itself out of being worth going.
- Remember, it's only a game.
