    Rules for game purchasing: 1. If Jamie likes it, put it on the list for the wife's Christmas. 2. If Jeff likes it, ask for a copy for my birthday. 3. If BOTH Jamie and Jeff like it: BUY IT NOW. :)

    Castles of Burgundy at #1 for Jeff warms my heart! (Dylann) 7 Wonders Duel and Santorini are also fantastic. One day when we can hopefully cross paths at a convention, we'll have to throw down an AYCB vs Foster the Meeple 2v2 game of Santorini because I honestly don't think I've ever played the 2v2 mode. Great video all around though!

    Great list, and entertaining as always! For mean 2-player card games don’t forget Arboretum! That’s a nasty little knife fight disguised as a beautiful zen pattern-builder! Reminds me of Lost Cities in the tough decisions. Also Monopoly Deal card game is surprisingly mean, and cheap (could cheat a little on no-buy month), and works great with non-gamers. 15 minutes and great at 2-players. For other abstract games I like Kahuna (what if backgammon was area control game) and Taluva (building a beautiful model like Santorini). I also love the tile-builder Akrotiri with its spacial puzzle and goal cards. No idea if you’d like it, but I do.

    Yes, great picks for two player games! You have a few I haven't tried yet, but based on the rest, I really want to. I get the feeling that you haven't played Hanamikoji yet. Not sure how easy it is to get a hold of now, but it may be my favorite 2 player game. You have to play it with the same person a few times to really get the beauty of it's mechanisms, and how it forces you to get inside the other players mind. I love it! Another really good recommendation would be Archaeology:New Expeditions..... also possibly harder to get. If you like push you luck and set collecting, it's a really solid filler style game.

    SW: rebellion is good at 2, but i kind of like the 4 player (not dividing the roles but so someone else can giggle at our plotting) The Others from Cmon was a great two player game (it also works well at higher counts as the Sin player can pit the others against each other) The Networks plays well at 2 - lots of hate drafting ;)

    I would say the original (green box). Reason: It comes with more characters and will be a good intro into the series (if you like it and choose to buy the other versions for more characters). It also has some more components that the others don’t (a cauldron of sorts to hold the power tokens for example)

    You should seek out the original Lord of the RIngs Confrontation Deluxe Edition. It is basically the larger version of the game. My gut is that it isn't easy to find nowadays, though. The small version does the job, but the larger version is nicer... and all of the info is right on the cards/character standees... I prefer that aspect, alone.
