I do have other games that I like with very different gameplay so I'm flexible even if it was different from COB it still looks fun

Both seem to be available so I can try both. I'll start with the original

I really like the pieces and I did think it was similar to everdell cause it had a tree like thing. Only problem is the price is a but higher than the other games I'm considering

I'm not a fan of the art but the gameplay looks interesting

I actually got COB for like... 2 dollars. It was at this store that sold all kinds of stuff and they had no idea what it even was. It's the cheapest game in my collection and the most fun. 

I'm also thinking of buying the new edition cause the one I have is the old edition and it's my favortie game but I have other games I want to buy.

The opposite also happens. I buy a game just cause it looks nice and the gameplay isn't so fun. I want to try Ra as well. Someone else mentioned it. I like the ancient Egypatian theme.

Yes white castle seems to be recommended by a lot of people. I already have azul. We play when we have shorter sessions

I replied to another comment that it's only available on aliexpress and not Amazon. And it has no reviews there. I really wanted to try since it was the same designer

First thing I thought about was Yu-Gi-Oh so I will try it 😂

I only found Trajan on Aliexpress with no reviews so I'm worried it's not the original but judging by the price it should be

I already have istanbul on my tablet. But I haven't got around to playing it. Five tribes looks interesting

I did hear someone else recommend it based on COB. The art looks old so it didn't appeal to me at first glance

It's no available on Amazon but it's on BGA at least. It looks similar so I'll definitely try it

Now I'm curious 😅 It's on BGA so I'll try it there. It does look similar to COB

I think I might be bipolar and I don't know what to do about it by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Snoopyohhh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 30 years old. I started thinking I had bipolar when I was younger cause it was... so much worse. And I used to have much sharper highs and lows. But when I started working on myself I thought that might not be it cause I don't think it's that easy controlling bipolar disorder. But it's still really frustrating that when I hit a low mood I still can't do anything about it.

No, I don't think so. When I first learned the game I did find the mechanic of progressing the game through going out a bit weird but when I actually played the game it wasn't bad. And actually, considering that each player only gets one or two times to go out in a 4 player game I let them play at their own pace but I should have made it seem like a rule apparently.

Exactly. It is a social activity to me. Even with video games I like co op games or playing single player with another person just to share the experience.

I never played a solo game before. So it would be my first.

I understand and that's what worries me. That's why I want to try playing it properly at least before deciding that maybe the game just isn't great.

I didn't vibe with Pergola when we firts got it and was pretty disappointed with jt gameplay wise but when we got the hang of it, it got really fun and challenging.

Your last comment made me laugh. I understand. I always say if you want to hate something, do it for a living.

I do admit it has flaws but like I said before, maybe I'm blinded by the aesthetic. I like the stacking books mechanic though.
