I play it every chance that I get…but it wouldn't be this high on the TOP list without the legacy version. We loved the changes that the legacy system provided and the new additions to the deck from game to game.   19.

Continuing the quick reviews of 9 games per month series. These will be smaller or children games that don't need a big review or games that I only played once and I cannot give a final review yet, but I would still like to share my initial thoughts on.   Books of Time Published: 2023Players: 1-4Playing Time: 45-60 MinsPublisher: Board&Dice Mechanisms: Deck Building, Hand Management, Open Drafting, Solitaire Game, Sleeves: BEU 80x120mm,   Gameplay & Replayability: 9/10 It’s an original type of deck building.

TOP 40-31   40. Pandemic Legacy SPOT: 2024 >> 2025 +6 Publisher: Z-Man GamesPlayers: 2-4Playing Time: 60 minutesMechanisms: Cooperative Game, Legacy Game, Action Point, Hand ManagementSleeves: TCG 63,5x88mm, OSRB 88x125mm This spot is for the whole Pandemic Legacy series. I cannot replay Pandemic too much because once I win a coop game, I don't need to play it anymore. Legacy mechanism changed that completely. Each game is a new scenario with new problems to solve. A really good series that is totally worth the money investment.   39. Marvel United SPOT: 2024 >> 2025 -3 Publisher: CMONPlayers: 1-4Playing Time: 40...
