Thank you very much for sharing. I do have a list, its not very big, and will usually have like 5-6 titles. I was then thinking, ok, but how do I decide now. So I tried watching some videos about the games and the first two I tried, basically destroyed the game! Mind, these are very popular games we are talking about. So I figured that the reviewers are a bit too biased and I might not align with them on the things they like and not like. They did make some compelling points though that did resonate with me.
The last game we bought was Ark Nova, we knew almost nothing about the game at the time, sure heard that it has a high score and won some awards but thats about it. We are very happy with it.
Before that, we bought Arnak almost the same way. And....we dont like the game that much. We played a bunch of 2 and 3 player games but none really clicked and it felt like min/maxing from turn 1 and if you screw up, tough luck, the game is over.
