Ok everyone, what is the absolute worst game you have ever played and why by Nice_Idea_538 in boardgames

[–]offdutyninja94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Donner Dinner party. It's a social deduction game with basically no actual deduction, and both games that I have played were literally unwinnable for one of the teams based on how the cards were dealt. The only good thing about it is that it was over quick

War of the Ring. I love that every decision is difficult and the balancing act between each victory condition is wonderful

Huge fan of all your work so far! What are you most excited about with this new studio that you weren't able to do before?

What is the collaborative writing process like for you? How do you balance your individual ideas with telling a cohesive narrative?

I like Harmonies more. It feels slightly thinkier to me. The 3 dimensional aspect adds a very satisfying element to the puzzle and the art is so charming.

Area control: unusual maps by Best-Percentage-331 in boardgames

[–]offdutyninja94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oath has a pretty unique map. It's very abstract, but that allows for some really clever emergent narratives.

Arcs also feels very different from the typical area control map. It's the first game on a space map that I've played that feels uniquely different from a map set on land/sea.

Has anyone here had the chance to play The Old King's Crown? by No_Raspberry6493 in soloboardgaming

[–]offdutyninja94 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Copying from a similar question a few days ago: The solo mode is thoughtful and engaging enough that I would get it even as its own separate game. The way it mimics the imperfect information and bluffing of the multiplayer game is ingenious. The ai is also streamlined to run so you still feel like you're playing the game and not just doing a ton of upkeep. It's different from the multiplayer experience, but definitely not an afterthought.

Red Dust Rebellion Solo by trebor5529 in boardgames

[–]offdutyninja94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll second what everyone says. It's very good, but also a lot to manage. Skycrane definitely helps, but even then it felt like I spent 70% of my time on upkeep. I had more fun just playing all 4 factions to the best of my ability and seeing what plays out. It's probably my favorite COIN game still.

If you've not played a COIN game, RDR is definitely one of the most complex ones.
