Hey friends! Today we are learning how to play the newest title from Renegade Game Studios, Sea Scroll! Sea Scroll is a quick-playing, deceptively strategic set collection card game where players will guide schools of fish from the Reef, or the central discard area, to their personal Habitat to form schools of fish, or card sets in front of them. At the end of the game, each player will combine their schools with fish cards remaining in their hands to score! I hope you all enjoy the video and be sure to check out Sea Scroll!

Hey friends! Today I am chatting all about HYVE! Print & play turned physical roll & write! Each turn you roll dice equal to your population. These rolled dice represent your worker bees. Using these bees, you select actions you wish to perform. All of your remaining bees are then used to gather nectar, building you a very colourful hyve. Struggle to stay alive against the constant threats of nature, and lead your colony from merely surviving to thriving. Enjoy the video friends!
Amazing thing is there is a huge range of different sheets with different game modes! ALL of the sheets in the legacy box are unique!!! The other Editions have even MORE game variety to explore. I'll also mention that the legacy game comes with a first "starter" non-legacy sheet, so you can learn the game first as a "trial run" before embarking on your first of 11 Legacies that are included in the game!

Hey friends! Let's continue this board game collection declutter! It makes me so happy to know that a lot of you are enjoying this series. I've had a great time doing this and it really made me feel better about my collection. A part of me does wish I got rid of even more but it's a journey and down the road we can get rid of more. Enjoy part 2 friends!

Hey friends! Today we are starting something that I've been really excited to do but that I've also been putting off. I love having a big board game collection and it makes sense being a board game content creator but recently my collection has just been bringing me anxiety. So I think it is time to go through the ENTIRE collection game by game and make some tough decisions. I hope you all enjoy the video and let's get into it!
