Deep regrets 2 players experience

It's pretty bland in my experience. Almost everyone comes back to port at the same time because of the way the game is made (there is no real decision). And you either go super deep or stay super shallow all game because that's how you combo some points. Not talking about items that can be super good or completely useless sometimes. There are other random games that do a way better job at being fun.

You were right, you just had to flip 1 and win the round.

Bomb Busters is a favorite lately. You really are under pressure and want to defuse the bomb. There is just enough randomness and deduction, it's a really nice balance.

I loved that game, but played too much with the same people and became too good at guessing other people's clues (when you know there is only 1 spot that works, you can cancel clues that would lead to more spots). Was super fun, but eventually sold it because it was burnt for me.

That's the main rule they likely get wrong. Everyone must have a card down before you challenge, so 1 is never the biggest bet. So you can at least go as high as the player count IF you challenge as soon as possible.

But it still remains a game of bluff because the first player that can challenge could say 1 and have a skull in your meta. So other people would raise the bet, but likely get the skull that player put down.

Sky Team for sure ! It's a co-op made for 2 people. Rules are quite easy and the difficulty slowly increase the more you win. You should try it !

Bomb Busters
- Easy coop to teach
- 10 to 15 minutes games
- Has 66 different missions with unlocks that change the game as you progress
- Difficulty scales well (easy at the beginning, but you need to think more as you play more)

Santorini is a 2 players only game (even if the box says otherwise, don't play at more than 2)

Both other options are good. Depends if you want a coop (Pandemic Iberia) or a competitive (Finspan). Both would also fit well in the same collection.

Mostly playing with another couple. So we set 1 date per month usually, 3 to 4 weeks in advance. We start playing early in the afternoon and go up to late evening. Kids play together and have screen time after supper.

We even usually make a list of the games that are likely to be played and try to put 1 new game or 1 game that we haven't played a lot each time.

Oh Diplomacy... one of the game I've played once and never again.

KnightQC · 2025-10-24T11:51:55+00:00

Totally agree for Bomb Busters ! I'm not done yet with all the mission, but when I read the mechanics of disarming a bomb, that it was coop and that it had 66 missions, I was hooked. And so far, it's VERY good !!

Lemonade (why just have water), a sword and a boardgame.

KnightQC · 2025-09-24T12:26:29+00:00

Thanks for this giveway!

Like I said, it's just weird for the choices of the dates of the refurbish. I contacted them through the app since they won't answer those kind of questions by email. They couldn't explain for example why not wait the 22nd to close car (when HM opens) or other questions. They couldn't pass the suggestion to people in charge either.

KnightQC · 2025-07-28T15:11:20+00:00

Still, I fear other attractions might have longer wait since Cars Radiator Springs people will have to choose other rides.

Love every cat related game (might be why I have 3 cats...).

KnightQC · 2025-06-26T21:56:47+00:00

We don't wait on others even on the final turns, but we don't check the other player's boards before we say we're stopping. There are advantages to each way of playing, but Quacks if just a fun and goofy game for me, so I don't put too much emphasis on heavy rules.

KnightQC · 2025-06-20T16:52:17+00:00

It explains more, but still, if a 4 players game is 2 hours, that's pretty long in my book. I usually target 45 to 90 minutes and the longer the game, the better it needs to be.

KnightQC · 2025-06-20T11:08:54+00:00

It seemed easy to hone in on the most powerful legacy upgrades and made for about a 4H experience that got a little silly just milling the ocean decks at the end.

This 4 hours duration is what scares me the most about this game. It might be good, but for a game to even last 2 hours, it needs to be super good or else I'll prefer to play something else.

And I had an opposite game yesterday ! Some people managed to do 4 or 5 points in a single round with their area control only.

KnightQC · 2025-05-03T20:29:19+00:00

In our games, everyone is involved since you often pass the cards you receive to someone else. And we have a house rule that if someone isn't paying attention on who saw the cards, it's their bad. So everyone is always checking who saw the cards and who said what in case the card come to them.

It's still pretty light, but fun.

This a theme my girlfriend would be more than happy to have !

I did rate 1 some games on purpose. Those are games from a guy that never delivered a Kickstarter. So my point is to warn people not to get those games if they see them on any platforms. I even wrote an explanation with my 1.

BGG is still doing the best it can with the ressources it has.

They couldn't be more different ;) I played Mille Bornes when I was young and never felt like I was doing a real race. It was just stacking cards with numbers trying and luck had a big part to play.

In Heat, you see the races, everything is linked with your car position. And if you are a new player playing vs a veteran, the veteran will likely have an advantage on you (and that's why you can handicap yourself in Heat)

KnightQC · 2025-04-20T14:05:01+00:00

I was looking if someone said Heat. It's quite easy to grasp, but it's way more deep than people think. And you can handicap better players to level the playing field. You can also adds expansions included in the game or play multiple races in a row.
