Ideally without mentioning its name, I’ll start

  • unspoken cooperation playing cards to survive in space (or underwater)
  • tax simulator but you’re trying to make the red planet liveable

    Cooperatively fight monsters, seal gates, and have encounters (hopefully) before the big bad wakes up for 4 hours Be the first to reach level 10 while fighting monsters in a dungeon and backstabbing your friends (Play crabs in a barrel with your fellow adventures in a dungeon)

    I know my favorite is too long and tedious for most and my least favorite is such a staple it has a bunch of varieties, but I really hate it lol

    Nordic Tetris.

    Let’s all watch one person get lucky with some die rolls and slowly take everything from everyone else.

    Cars jockeying for position as they run laps, hoping they don’t crash

    Fuck your sheep, wood, grain and roads, I hate this island and want to leave

        Formula D

        Rallyman GT. I enjoy it much much more than Formula D. Formula D didn’t have enough crunch for me

      That first one sounds like every racing game ever, so I’ll guess a good one: Rallyman GT?

        Bingo!

        I couldn’t find a way of distinguishing it from other racing games without giving it away, but personally, I love Rallyman GT but don’t so much love other racing games, because the positioning and how it impacts you and other players is much more important in Rallyman

    We’re going to Center City to play with the game pieces.(The only hint I’ll give ya is not the Checker pieces. Go Birds!)

    Last time we parked on Pennsylvania Ave we saw a dude get stabbed on our way to Tropicana.

      Forbidden Island!

      Forbidden Desert!

      Wait so desert was your least favorite? I found it adequately challenging compared to island which felt a bit too easy for a co-op game :o

        I think for the group I was playing with, Forbidden Island was more accessible. It’s probably not my absolute least favorite game, but I was curious if anyone would pick up on the games with just two word sentences. 😂

    “global thermonuclear war, and I’m Joshua.”

    This game has too many damn pieces for a game about birds and is effectively over by the second turn so now everyone else sits and waits for the end game conditions, just going through the motions.

    Cooperative dungeon crawl with cowboys and tentacles.

    The winner has been determined within the first hour, but there’s 5 hours left of this godforsaken rail game.

    Alternate set:

    Supremely tuned deck based dungeon crawl.

    Supremely tuned deck based dungeon crawl with snow.
