The Great Board Game Purge 2022 - Part 3/6

0:00 okay we're back this is part three of the video series where i cleanse my soul of past demons we're going through around 10 games at a time showing you the extent of damage that was done to my collection when i was just going apeshit and buying games i didn't even know anything about or want a place so there you go i said it at least one of us is being honest here right bollocks so the first game on this list of [ __ ] is timeline i'm not saying this is bad but once you have played this a couple of times it just gets stale it's a novel game you put cards in a line and then you'll have to insert other cards into the timeline and it's just basically a guessing game we played it to death and it's it's out of state it's welcome still our timeline next game is stop lights this was a freebie from i don't know where it came from ball game girl saying never bother playing it [ __ ] here's a game we won in a charity auction it's exceed fighting system with a couple or four different heroes they'll be facing off against each other i don't know there's maybe a street fighter car going but i haven't really got time or the where with all to even bother to work in this [ __ ] box so [ __ ] it there's a game sent to us by the publisher we did a review of this one it's villagers it's not too bad it's just you know it's a flawed game that could have been something special it's nice to all fits in a really really small box it's really well produced but it's just

1:30 essentially a card game where you're going to be trying to get the best cards onto the table and we've played all this sort of stuff before and i just don't like it there's a game that we've made a mistake on this is planet steam we bought the [ __ ] french version what what a complete [ __ ] we were waiting for maybe some way to translate this piece of crap into english but we haven't found it and i don't know it was sort of stuck away underneath loads of other crap games and it's actually festering there with all the wood lice and all that sort of thing so the time has come to finally get rid of this piece of turd so here's a game that actually is based on a decent tv show but the game itself is [ __ ] it's gale force 9's homeland i don't know this is sort of like a hidden traitor type thing that really didn't work very well they tried really hard to cash in on the popularity of the tv show at the time and it's one of them games but in the future people are going to be going well bloody i was homeless i ain't got a clue so yeah see you later mate so this is a stacking game called crazy tower the component quality this is really really dire it comes with these really nice wooden blocks which is strange because the actual cardboard that you're going to insert into the tower it's made out of this really flimsy paper type stuff it's just awful and i don't know i don't know i think we've got the support from the united states because it looked quite good but yeah it turned out to be [ __ ] there's a game called nerd words never played it i don't know what it is it's i don't know something educational type of thing i don't know i think it was sent to us for a review but i just don't know i

3:03 just could be bothered to get out of bed for it so yeah i don't know we'll give it a cherry there's a game by matt licock it's knit wit this is a word game where you'll be using to kind of get into the [ __ ] box but you'll be using like there we go knitting needles and stuff to do stuff for words yeah i don't know just reminds me of the smell of my grandmother and it's just after pandemic and all that sort of thing last thing i wanted to do was start knitting there's a kid's game called monster fall this isn't actually that bad it's a kids game where you'll be using levers to negotiate a maze you'll be trying to drop the i don't know is it the golden calf into the relevant spot and my kids got fed up with us after about five minutes and that's it there's a pretty decent worker placement game called mangrovia it's actually not that bad you'll be mostly workers around the board to take actions like usually do it's just i don't know it's just not got that allure that a lot of these other worker placement games have got it looks colorful the components are really nice but there's somebody out there who wants this one so we're going to give it to them and hopefully they will have a laugh away because we didn't the next one is forbidden desert i can hear a lot of you saying oh my god you're getting rid of forbidden desert i like forbidden ireland i don't really play this one enough to warrant a stay in my collection it's all right but when you got forbidden ireland what's the point in having forbidden desert and all the other forbidden [ __ ] that they've tried to sell here over the years right so is another game that we really really thought was going to be pretty good it's redacted this is just [ __ ] off where this is a game that

4:34 we thought was going to be excellent but it turned out to be a load of [ __ ] it's like a hidden traitor game where the rules haven't been written very clearly i'm sure there's a pretty good game in it somewhere but it just fell flat we didn't really know what the hell was going on and uh yeah this is an example of when a publisher hasn't got a [ __ ] clue what they're doing they go that's another 10 games that we are getting rid of i think there's a couple more videos in this series so if you haven't died already listening to me waffle on about [ __ ] all then come back next time we'll try and surprise you with some more heinous turds that you might just want to burn with us right so we'll see in the next one

5:34 you
