  1. When the video started I read the village rails box as village halls, I was imagining a tops trumps type thing where you compared how many seat you could squeeze in or bonus points for a tea urn, but no train strategy game, think comparing how many toilets you have would be more interesting

  2. I dont know if its the format of reviewing multiple games in one video but I love the humor and style of this review. This is now my second favorite video, after the oink games one. More of this please!

  3. 6:46 Can I just say that it IS a good point. You've got to have an interesting theme with a game like this otherwise you could just use a standard deck of cards and be playing with some abstract and complicated math. Getting the visuals right is part of getting the theme right.

  4. "Hidden"? 🧐
    Maybe if you stucked your head in the ground for so long…
    – A questionable title.

    Definitely not all of them.
    Village Rails might worth the "hidden" title.
    Not sure about the "gem" though..

    Thanks anyway!

  5. Cannot agree more with the first pick. By now, I’ve played Imperial Steam so many times, and it introduced me to Alexander Huemer’s style. Very tight and precise decision making.

    I’ve also played the previous game of Huemer “Lignum 2nd Edition”, which is less elegant but still painfully fun, requiring almost the same levels of precise and cautious planning.
