Bear’s Trash Taste – His Top Games That I Hate
Today I’m finishing the series in which I explore my friends favourite games and specifically look at the games they chose to put onto their top 100 that I dislike.
Todays victim is Bear. He swings much further over to the thematic and direct conflict sides of the spectrum than the other members of my game group. He’s probably the person whos tastes differs the most from mine. He agrees that Food Chain Magnate is a fantastic game, but he detests Galaxy Trucker. All things shake out I suppose.
Vikings – Horned Helmets and Real Estate Management
Vikings by Michael Kiesling defies expectations. When you hear Vikings, you’ll think exploration, pillaging, and mayhem. In this box you’ll instead find a fast economic game about fiscal responsibility and real estate management.
Draft & Write Records
The joy of the ‘roll and write’ or ‘flip and write’, or now, the ‘draft and write’ genre of games is the ability to earn cascading bonuses. It feels so good when you take your single card, add a musician to your band list, cross off a harmony along the bottom, which gives you a free action in your agenda, which completes a row and a diagonal, gives you a record deal, a tour, and two more harmony dots you can fill in, which can cascade into more bonuses.

Bigfoot’s Trash Taste – His Top Games That I Hate
Every year I encourage the members of my regular game group to create a top 100 games of all time. Today I’m continuing the series in which I trash on my friends favourite games, because apparently, I hate fun.
Race for the Galaxy
I like playing Super Smash Brothers, I always have. I’ve played every iteration, and it’s one of the few straight-up fighting games that I actually enjoy. My enthusiasm for Smash Bros has led me to exist in a very weird state. I can crush all of my friends, no competition, but I’m not good enough for the competitive scene. The few times I’ve dabbled in tournaments, I’ve gotten eliminated almost immediately. This is the state I find myself with Tom Lehmann’s Race for the Galaxy, I feel like I have an advantage over my friends, simply for having played it over 100 times, but when I approach other enthusiasts, I’m still a beginner, comparatively.
