Quotes (from this video)
  • And then Wild Blooms, a game in which you have these flowers that you're collecting. A nice a nice game. Uh you collect a flower, and it activates everybody else. Interesting ideas in it, seven out of 10.
  • Uh Morty Morty, which is nominated for the Spiel des Jahres. And at this point, you know if it's won or not. I don't know if it's won or not. But at the we didn't like it at all. I gave it a five out of 10.
  • And then King of Tokyo Godzilla, what a great breath of fresh air, great themeing, really cool. I like King of Tokyo anyway. This is the best version since I played, a nine out of 10.
  • Hey folks, thanks for watching another one of our videos. If you like our videos, if you like our channel, if you would love to game with us at one of our conventions, check out Dice Tower Cruise, Dice Tower East, and Dice Tower West.
  • False Logic Puzzles by Norman D. Willis. I haven't read a good book in a while, and I'm afraid that trend is going to continue here.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Fiction: Banned Books, this is from All Play. I really like the first Fiction, guessing a five-letter word. If you like things like Wordle, um this is a good sort of one versus others game because one person is trying to stop you from guessing the word cuz they lie they have to lie about a letter each time, but you know they lie, so they're picking the right time to lie. But this offer this adds some special powers and things to it, so it's slightly better than the first one, I think, if you care about the stuff. If not, you can still play it normally, so great little game.
  • Got 5, a great deduction game for kids, wonderful components. Basically, um you everyone can see your numbers and you're guessing if this is higher or lower than your numbers and where they fit on a grid really works well for kids. There's a lot of good deduction games for kids these days. Another 8.5.
  • And Catan on the Road, what a glorious card game version of Catan, one one few games that I am going to get a copy of this for my house because my kids and family liked it so much. We can play this with anybody. It takes Catan, it distills it down into 15 minutes. What a wonderful thing. Like it a lot.
  • So, almost 15 minutes for 36 games.
  • If you have thoughts on these games, you disagree, agree, whatever it might be, let us know in the comments.

Pros
  • Better than it should be
  • Works well at higher player counts (5-6)
  • Good filler game
  • Nice production compared to earlier version
  • Engaging bonus point system
  • Players are incentivized to collect cards
Cons

  • Can feel like 'contract fulfillment'
  • Complexity is very basic, similar to Uno

Thematic elements
  • Safe cracking
Comparison games
  • Ticket to Ride
  • Uno
Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
  • contract fulfillment — It's just contract fulfillment. We've seen it hundreds of times before.
  • Hand Management — You have no hand limit, and you're encouraged to just draw cards, draw cards, draw cards. And there's a finite amount. There's 15 of each color, and when they run out, they run out until someone plays them.
  • Pick-Up and Deliver — It's just contract fulfillment. We've seen it hundreds of times before.
  • Push Your Luck — They give you a bonus to do multiple. So there's a bit of a push your luck. I could finish that safe right now, but I want to keep some cards to do another safe.
  • Set Collection — You're going to be collecting cards and then turning those cards in for safes.
