Comparison games
- Pocket Puffins
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Card Drafting — So, I'm going to probably do some swapping. Um, because I need the red to be at this spot. Or maybe I don't need to swap, but it probably would be a good idea. Um, maybe I will just do uh a slide.
- Grid Movement — The goal here is to complete three missions. Uh we have three missions dealt out here. Uh the first one is mission number three. This is the formation we will need the puffins in.
- Hand Management — So, we have six command cards as well, and these will tell us the different things that we could do to the puffins to get them in formation.
- Pattern Building — The goal here is to complete three missions. Uh we have three missions dealt out here. Uh the first one is mission number three. This is the formation we will need the puffins in.
- Set Collection — We have some of these in the right spot. So, we have this here, this, this, and everything else. Um, and this uh everything else might need to move.
- solo — The game is a solo only game.
- Tile Placement — Um, I think I will move this yellow puffin. So, I'll do the top one. I'll move this down one.

- This is very puzzly.
- It's kind of one of those puzzly type of games you could just pull out of your pocket and literally play um on a very small space as you can see.
- Really enjoyed this one.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is currently on Kickstarter. And I wasn't able to put out a video earlier. That's why the Kickstarter campaign will only be active for another 2 or 3 days.
- So, what I will do today, I will just set up the game now without um a montage because the setup is very simple and then um I will play through the game which is usually quite quick and then I will also like say a few words about what I like about the game and what I don't.
- We win if we can um if we do all three missions here um before we lose and we lose if um we ever have to draw a card and we can't because when we go through the entire command deck when we are through the command deck we shuffle them up we discard one card out of the game forever.
- This is a very cute solo game with just 18 cards plus um all of these like rule cards here.
- So, if you like uh these small 18 card solo games, this is definitely one to look out for or to back because I mean it's not very expensive.
- All right, as usual, I want to thank all of you for your support. Especially I want to give a shout out to my generous patrons.
