A Feast For Odin is amazing, and I'm so glad to see Honey Buzz getting love! Great video :)

Great list! Agricola and Lorenzo were the only glaring omissions for me.

Rajas! Of course. My groups really like Lords of Waterdeep, Champions of Midgard and Evil High Priest too. I think we are ready for Lorenzo Il Magnifico I just hope it's not too beige.😁

Excellent list, Rajas is probably our favorite followed by Arle and Feast. Some we like a lot that didn't make the list are Tzol'kin, Beyond the Sun and Whistle Mountain.

There is of course worker placement in Everdell but it’s a Tableau builder first in my opinion. The way you manage resources and build out your 15 card tableau is what the game really centers around and the workers are kinda there to help gather some resources to assist you. One of my favorite games though. So I’d say it’s a tableau building game with elements of worker placement and resource management :)

Fantastic list! Stone Age is classic, thematic goodness. And I love Arnak! (and I agree about Waterdeep ; ) Thanks!

Yeah, my favorite worker placement game is Lords of Waterdeep. My copy is nearly worn out. It's #81 on BGG with a 7.74 rating with over 50k votes, so while YOU may not like it, that doesn't mean it's not a good game or can't be worthy of a spot on a gamers top 10 worker placement games. A new up and comer for our game group is Galaxy Hunters. Think of it like Pacific Rim in space. Who knew kaiju hunting in space with giant robots could be a great worker placement game? You have a giant robot and a fleet of ships to fly around the galaxy to gather resources and build parts for your robot. To start with, your robot doesn't even have a gun. When you are ready, your giant robot faces off with kaiju and turn in their DNA for bounty. The expansion adding ambassadors and dice to combat is also a good addition to the game.

Murph-tastic video as always 🙂, I would agree with your number one. Lords of Waterdeep is a family favourite of ours. Circadians First light is a good dice 'worker' placement game.

I absolutely ADORE [Keyflower]. The way that bidding and working tiles both use meeples giving you an interesting decision on what to commit to. The beautiful simplicity of the coloured meeples allowing you to deliberately block a tile. While I love [a Feast for Odin], I feel the player interaction is a bit too light for me. I think [Keyflower] gets the balance perfect.

You should try out Cryo and Argent The Consortium. Cryo has three workers which you place out then return to your player board, and your player board has six actions you can fit a worker onto when you return the board which you customize by pulling resources from the main board using your first set of worker placement actions. Good for other reasons as well, but as a worker placement system that's where it shines. In Argent your workers are mages of different colors and have special power associated with them. So a red mage can be placed where someone has already placed their mage and wound them with their special power. Unless it's a nature mage who is immune to wounding. So not only are you jockeying for positions to place workers, but your workers can directly interact with others in meaningful ways and boost your eventual resolving of the action they're placed on.

We were trying to decide where to draw the line but we’re happy with our list. We’ll probably do a dice placement worker list too in the future

The Prodigals Son. “almost assuredly Top Ten!” Come on, man! COMMIT! 😜 With an, “assuredly” I’d buy it. Hand hovering over the Order button! “ASSUREDLY Top Ten”? Or “ALMOST assuredly Top Ten”??????

Not our fav. Objectively a good game just not our favorite type of game

So I love worker placement games and I haven’t watched the video yet. BUT HAS THAT STOPPED ME FROM BEING STOKED AND LIKING THIS VIDEO!?…no it hasn’t. ***update*** finished the video. It was amazing of course. I really wanna try Ganges but it’s not solo 😩
