Like the new hairstyle 👍. To be clear, I'm referring to Jamie's, not Jeff's 😂 On a side note, have you guys heard of Toil and Troublez from Grandpa Beck's Games?? It's a card game with really nice artwork and has a similar mechanic to Town 66 as you can't have the same color next to one another and numbers must go in ascending order. Throw in a few wizards who can summon cards from opponents, "vanish" cards from other players trove, and ones who can "cloak" other cards. It's a great little push your luck game that has replaced PUSH for me.

Second this! Super fun, easy to teach but has some nuance to make it interesting. Artwork is great.
I love laminator as a gift idea. I laminate everything.
Mr. President is OUT OF PRINT right now
Love the hair @Jamie. Super cute!
I’m a teacher…I never thought to use my laminator in this way. Genius…😂

Perfect choices!
Vagrantsong has a plushie that has components to the core game
Nana is so good, I love that the rules are on a single sheet so anyone can pick it up! For secret Santa we love giving any of the wooden gigamic games because they look good on display and nearly everyone fiddles with them when they pass by

I’ve not played one but have always been curious! They look cool
Given the theme of this video, I totally thought Jeff's oodie was festive! It took me way too long to notice that Gengar's red eye and white grin weren't, in fact, Santa hats! 😮

I really like the laminator and game inserts ideas. Adding them to my Christmas list!
Jaime, Love the new do! Jeff, love the hat! Great gift suggestions!

Thanks so much!
I played Mountain Goats and it was some dice chucking fun similar to Can't Stop with a King of the Hill mechanic - great for families!
Stockpile is so underrated tbh 🔥
I was randomly thinking of your old booktube channel from years ago and thought, whatever happened to her? And OMG you have a gaming channel! How fun. You always made me smile 😊

You found us!! We keep planning on posting on the book channel, it just never ends up happening.
I got the UV colourful insert from Poland games / e-raptor for Lost Ruins of Arnak, and I freaking love it. Highly recommend

Bought my first button shy games at PAX because of recommendations from you and from Second Star to the left. They are so great!

Jamie your hair looks awesome dooooood! 😊
2 seconds in what a cozy shot
Great ✨✨ 🧡🙏🏼
I was kind of hoping this was going to be another unhinged theme list (like the Fall games) because that was a blast, but this was just a solid list of gift ideas! But I’m still anxiously awaiting what I’m sure will be an extremely *creative* list of games with a winter/Christmas/snow theme 😅😝

Oh that’s coming haha
Hooky is the perfect gift for almost everyone. I have 3 copies to give out for Christmas, and I may end up buying more. Button Shy games are fun. Spaceshipped is a neat solo game by BS, along with At The Helm. Revolver Noir, Naturopolis, Tides, Skulls Of Sedlec, for 2 player BS games. Scout is still the greatest Oink game, and it's not as thinky as Hooky, so it's actually the best gift for any level of player (in my opinion).

Great gift giver over here!
New hair looks great, Jaime.
new hair is 🔥
Town 66 is similar to quirkle. I love our new dice tower. I feel like the rolls are so much better and quality. Heard you mentioned Black Fleet❤
Thats a great Christmas gift list! (Btw, beautiful hair Jamie!)

I love Print & Plays, so a laminator is def high on my list (rn I just not so surreptitiously use the one at work). That, and an actual color printer. I threw my last one out in a fit of rage. For Solo Button Shy, Jamie, you should def check out River Wild & Ancient Realm. Sooooo good
👍👍❤️❤️❤️ looove your 'new' hair Jamie

At the end of every video, I have to say" Later Days" in sync with Jeff 😆 🤣 😂.

Haha love that!!
Video ideas: a game night based only on a selection of games that you can fit in the pocket of your Oodie at the same time 😂
Hey Jamie do you think North Pole Nightmare will make it to Canada retail pre-christmas?
We'll be playing Telestrations on Christmas day. There'll be 8 of us round the table and some are total non-gamers. I made Halloween themed cards which were great fun this year so I'm going to make some Christmas ones as well.

The sound is waaaay too low. I have a quiet home [no little kids] and even with both youtube and pc volume at max, I can barely hear you. I'm guessing that you're saying good things I would enjoy, but can't tell. 😥 Also, why are you wearing shoes? I thought you were Canadian???
You're recommending games you don't remember anything about? O...k....
