#267: Top 10 Revisited & "Golden Age"

from So Very Wrong About Games · host Pickaxe

Times are bad. Children no longer obey their parents and everyone is running a Kickstarter. It is trivially easy to string together quotations going back to the dawn of human civilization lamenting how the youth are ruining everything, how the good old days were so great, and wishing we could go back to the golden age. See, I blame it on the baby boomers aging and succumbing more and more to nostalgia. See, in the good old days, before the boomers, we had things in perspective. 01:51 AYURIS: Anno 1800 (Martin Wallace, KOSMOS, 2020) Games Played Last Week: 03:37 -Yucatan (Guillaume Montiage, Matagot, 2023) 14:06 -Skytear Horde (Giacomo Neri and Riccardo Neri, Skytear Games, 2023) 15:44 -Sorcerer City (Scott Caputo, Druid City Games, 2020) 20:50 -Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Scrawlers--Heroes of Waterdeep (Vangelis Bagiartakis and Konstantinos Karagiannis, WizKids, 2023)  25:36 -Dorfromantik: The Board Game (Michael Palm and Lukas Zach, Pegasus Spiele, 2022) 26:15 -The Red Cathedral: Contractors (Isra C. and Shei S., Devir, 2022) 30:06 -Judgement: Eternal Champions (Gunmeister Games, Creature Caster, 2022)  36:27 -My City: Roll & Build (Reiner Knizia, KOSMOS, 2022) 40:51 -That's Not a Hat (Kasper Lapp, Ravensburger, 2023) 43:25 -Tinderblox (Rob Sparks, Alley Cat Games, 2020) 45:03 -Radiant: Offline Battle Arena (Jack Murray, Heel Turn Games, 2019) News (and why it doesn't matter): 48:41 Monopoly Scrabble.
