we do the overland route in gold rush!

this involves buying oxen and, most tellingly...

...watching grass grow :P

gold rush is becoming "co-incidence central."

good lord. i have no idea of how all these things are supposed to go /this/ right in real life.

allow me to introduce you to eternal, a collectible card game that smooshes magic design into hearthstone sensibilities:

for a minute, i'd like you to imagine "inherit the earth" as a game that's not quite so colourful and not blessed with talking animals, but has sentient robots instead.

that game is primordia. and i love primordia. so here's episode 1 of that:

If I would still want to try any of these, which are your favs so far?

thank you for taking a look around my channel. i very much appreciate it :)

and now, onto your question:

are we talking about the current crop of games i'm playing?

[primordia, eternal and the game coming up on sunday which i haven't talked about yet?]

or are we /just/ talking about the collectible card games?

if we're just talking about those, i liked:

eternal
spellweaver
hex

in that order. i think that eternal has the nicest melding of hearthstone and magic, plus, it's "free to play" model is quite generous. i've been playing for a little over two weeks now and have almost all the commons and almost all the uncommons and enough dust to create a pair of playsets [4x is a playset] of legendaries.

spellweaver is pretty good too, from this perspective - but their rules system can be a little odd on occasions. it's not always easy to spot when you can respond to another player's actions, for example. like eternal, i quite like their free to play model - it's pretty generous - though they have some really ridiculous quests that will take more than a day or so to work out [i had one quest that wanted me to "play 50 ranked multiplayer games" - there's no real way you can do that in one sitting. plus, ranked mutliplayer: it's like being kicked in the teeth over and over again if you don't have a decent card pool.]

finally, while i LOVE hex's play dynamic [it's basically magic: the gathering] i'm not totally sold on it's dark fantasy setting or it's quite anemic free to play. while, sure, it's possible to get cards out of the system, it's tricky, because you have to "git gud." that said, of the three, this has BY FAR the most robust pve [with a great campaign] and while that won't last you forever, it's worth playing if you're interested in that.

we beat up dudes using the preconstructed white deck that eternal doles out to us during the "extended tutorial.":
