Spyfall is brilliant. Love it. But, you must play with the roles.
Zee, I was the orher fan of Viceroy. Really satisfying game.
2014 was around the time I got into the hobby and SO MANY of these games defined how I view gaming
Glad to see Viceroy made it on the list. Great game that did not get the love.
medieval academy is underrated
Hey, no ads? 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
📣PLAY XIA WITH THE EXPANSION 📣
Maskmen is awesome! I also didn't find and play Maskmen until a couple years ago. This was a great year.
Brings up a 2014 game based on Quorriors, then calls another game from 2014 the Dominion of bag building. Quorriors definitely came before and is more likely to be the first.
I love that they shouted out Board Game Bliss! Great local store in Toronto!
The actual title of the game is "Amel Cup".
I became a member on BGA in november 2013. Crazy! Also how much has happend there now. Specially durong the pandemic it just exploded.

The Alien vs Predator movie came out in 2004
Scharfe Schoten: one of the best trick-taking games! (2014)
Half of the games on this list I’ve purchased from Boardgamebliss! The best store!
Xia, one of my favourite games of all time 🌌🚀🛸
Fire in the Lake, Onitama, Fields of Arle, Port Royal, Splendor, Camel Up, Five Tribes, Linko, Deception, Roll for the Galaxy
Maskmen is getting a Disney villain retheme!
Star Wars: Imperial Assault is amazing
Every 3, 2 and 1 mentioned are amazing games. Five Tribes would be my #1 though… it has it all.
Bidding for turn, multiple ways to gain points, genies that break the rules. Incredible production, components and art are really amazing, to be expected of Days of Wonder, but still needs to be mentioned. Just a gem of a game and feels pretty unique.
20:33 I want a reprint of this game with more characters and campaigns! I love this game!
My top 10 from 2014. I used to be pretty big on thematic games first but have switched to mostly euros. So this list has changed substantially compared to if i would have done it back in 2014 a 2015.
Honorable mentions: Star Wars: Imperial Assault, Colt Express. I don’t play these at all nowadays and have sold them. Would be really high up back in the days.
10. Lord of Xidit
9. La Granja
8. Abyss
7. Imperial Settlers
6. Istanbul
5. Five Tribes (honestly not intentional that it’s #5)
4. Castles of Mad King Ludwig
3. Dead of Winter (used to be #1 – got me into the hobby)
2. Murano (hidden gem for euro fans)
1. Orleans (still play til this day, excellent euro in my top 15 games of all time).
Prometheus came out in 2012
