I super dislike deck building games but if you must..I'd prefer ascension or sentinels of the multiverse

Oh, I really dig villainous and it being Disney makes it pretty good way to draw people off catan

I've never played Clank, but I've heard that the In Space iteration fixes a lot of problems with the regular iteration.

Why not? It's still on my to play list. Though I've heard people say the factions are unbalanced

It's a war game w/ unsatisfying combat.

What war games do you suggest in its place?.

Any game where there is risk in attacking or a good way to defend.

Power Grid is really cool.

PJ. · Wed Mar 03, 2021 11:00 am

Villainous is also really cool.

Feel like I'm getting mixed messages in this thread.

Not really mixed. I agree with most of what is said about the game in here, I just think it's a really good game. It's one of my favorite heavier games and I think the big math problem in the last few turns is fun. I play with the accountant league and it's a good time. I def didn't buy the game myself because outside of that group, I can't get it to the table.

It's like...incredibly good for a licensed game. I think there are some balance issues but typically they are solved by bullying lol

Maleficent seemed p good if left unchecked but is v bad the more players you play w

PJ. · Sun Mar 07, 2021 12:15 am

I like machi Koro w/ the balance patches but I understand why people would hate it.

Do you just hate dice, reck?

Sagrada!

Ice cool is the coolest game ever.

So, I've played a few flicking games (crokinole, catacombs, and Icecool) and there are definitely others I'd like to try, but the reason I like icecool so much is because I find the game to be incredibly simple in that you can basically explain the entire game in about one sentence - rules included. Also while being a simple kids game it provides an incredible amount of skill expression because of the awkwardness and uniqueness of the penguins you are flicking, for example you can ollie the penguins over the walls of the board. But yeah, i've literally sold 5 copies of this game by being so incredibly excited about it so I like..know i'm the minority of being so incredibly excited about this. I'm also like..a known children's game liker, Rhino Hero and IceCool are two of the most fun board games i've played.
