I am in the market for a new game but struggle a bit to decide which one! Most of the reviewers on youtube I find obnoxious, trying to hard to be funny and often not really useful. How do you decide? Especially if you cannot play the game beforehand?

  1. Did Dr Reiner Knizia design it?
  2. Is it a Cube Rails?
  3. Who will I play it with?
  4. Does it cost under £50?
  5. Does it play up to 5?
  6. Is there a rulebook online?
  7. Do my geekbuddies rate it highly?
  8. What does it do in my collection?

I'm looking for realistic answers to 6 out of those, before I'll consider it
