Probably Scythe. It was fun the first couple times when we were figuring it out, but very quickly every game ends up feeling the same.

@TipRing @dpunked 100% this. I kick-started it and had very high expectations due to the designer, but it really fell flat after a couple plays. I particularly disliked how your faction and board combo really dictated your viable strategy and how some resources just stopped being useful or valuable at all later in the game.

@Robbydigital @TipRing @dpunked Wild. I absolutely love Scythe. Different strokes for different folks, for sure.
