One Star Reviews | Wargame Edition | The Players' Aid

Take a break, and chill out with us as I ambush Grant with a stupid game to make him angry. I've trawled BGG for one star reviews of many of his favourite wargames. How mad will he get?

    One of my favorite pass-times! There is nothing more rage inducing than seeing the classic ''haven't played yet but don't like the genre 1/10''

    This was hilarious, especially with Grants blood sugar monitor going off as he got more enraged :D

    Really enjoyed this episode! Personally, loving historically oriented war games, and as I usually end up being the one to introduce and teach these games to other gamers both new and veteran gamers there are some key things to be aware of to avoid people taking an immediate and possible mistaken disliking to a game. First find out answers to these questions: 1). how long of time is a player willing to invest in playing a game? 2). do they find player versus player backstabbing interaction enjoyable or even acceptable in a game? 3). what sort of game mechanics do they enjoy or dislike based on the games they have already played? 4). is the subject matter of the game and or the complexity of the game acceptable to them? Bad first impressions for games are as difficult to correct as are bad first impressions of people. My one and only pet peeve in games is when you spend as much money on a game, as games now cost, that the publisher then has the audacity to release on the gaming public a game with pages of errata and rules corrections on websites. Misery in the making! All game companies for any produced game, no matter the complexity should have rules writers, editors and game testers (perhaps testers unfamiliar with the specific game) capable of accomplishing the feat of providing clear and mistake proof rules for their games before release. I believe in Santa too!

    Fun stuff! It would be good to try the reverse for 10/10 games and switch roles. Very enjoyable and humourous. Thank you for the entertainment.

    That was fun - thanks. Also, c'mon Grant. I got Warfighter and I don't even own it!

    A good review is more than an opinion. It is fun to note how many of those games have gone through multiple printings and editions.

    Loved this video! Have not been active in wargaming since the penultimate decade of the last century; but watch your videos with some regularity. Therefore, was able to guess Holland 44 and Fire in the Lake. Giveaways were paras and DD being a misnomer; and four way tug of war. Thanks!
