• I'm kicking myself that I didn't try this board game sooner, because it's a fast-paced, easy-to-learn masterpiece

  03-11-2026 16:13 via Latest from GamesRadar+
  
  When a board game claims you can learn and be playing it in just a few minutes, I get skeptical.

That's why I raised an eyebrow at Fire Tower's claim you can be up and at 'em in a mere five minutes. A glance at its array of components and grid-based system also had me hitting the 'doubt' button.But yo

Just don't take this too seriously.Here's how he arrived at that number: If the game costs $100 (for the Ultimate Edition) and it takes 80 hours to complete, that works out to $1.25/hour of "fun." After adding on side missions and simply exploring GTA 6's map, investing in the game seems like an even better deal at just 50 cents of fun per hour.
