While I’m taking a break from doing the full Board Games with Scott episodes, I will continue to release some content over on my YouTube channel in my “Scott’s Stuff” series. When there is something appropriate for BGWS viewers, I will cross-post it to this feed.
I did a discussion of my Top Ten Gaming Experiences for 2009. I’ve covered some of the games here and others may be new to you.

Well, my muse has not yet returned. I’ve played some games that I’ve really enjoyed – Peloponnes and Chaos in the Old World are both games I considered making a video about. But I think about making a video, and the drive just isn’t there.
I don’t want to say that I’m ending the show, as I’m getting ready to step down from a pretty big administrative load at work, and I’m hoping that once I’m through with that, the interest will return.

Long Shot is a horse racing game where players can own pretty ponies and make money off of betting on them (10:00)
Long Shot is a horse-racing game. Players start with some money but no horses and choose between spending money on buying horses and betting with money on which horses will win. It’s a nice balance between the two, with a little strategy and more than a little luck.
If you decide to get a copy, please let the folks at Z-Man Games ( zman@zmangames.com ) know that you are buying it because of Board Games with Scott! This makes a difference!

Word on the Street is a social team-based word game where players attempt to capture letters by coming up with words. (7:45)
Out of the Box is the company that originally created Apples to Apples. They have a new party game that’s got two teams coming up with words in categories to capture letters that are in those words. This game would be good for school, library or family play.
