Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics

Really solid board games. Playing local multiplayer is more of a hassle than it should be though, they really don't need to force single joycon only for a lot of these games. I got my bang for my buck and discovered some new favorites I wouldn't have known about otherwise (hanafuda, gomoku, president).The in-game message showing that all clubhouse games have been mastered

Dommage de faire moins bien que son prédécesseur...

L'héritier de 42 jeux indémodables sorti sur Nintendo DS. J'ai remarqué que l'ambiance graphique ressemblait à Game Builder Garage, c'est cool que Nintendo essaie de maintenir une cohérence entre ses productions maisons.

Le concept est sympa, que l'on soit fan ou pas, les jeux casu ont existé et existeront toujours sur console. La switch a été pensée pour être …

L'héritier de 42 jeux indémodables sorti sur Nintendo DS. J'ai remarqué que l'ambiance graphique ressemblait à Game Builder Garage, c'est cool que Nintendo essaie de maintenir une cohérence entre ses productions maisons.

Le concept est sympa, que l'on soit fan ou pas, les jeux casu ont existé et existeront toujours sur console. La switch a été pensée pour être nomade et multijoueurs donc ce n'était pas déconnant d'y sortir une compilation de jeux de société ! A titre personnel, j'ai acheté 51 worldwide games à l'occasion d'un voyage en train avec ma mère par exemple.

La sélection de jeu est étrange: deux variantes du solitaires, deux variantes du shogi, tank en solo et en équipe comptant pour deux jeux différents... et à coté il manque de gros classiques, le baccarat, le backgammon, le jeu de l'oie, serpent et échelles, loto...

Le tout reste varié mais manque de cohérence.

Pour moi, le plus gros défaut du titre est le manque de mode campagne. Tous les jeux sont débloqués d'office au contraire de 42 jeux indémodables, c'est un parti pris qui se défend. En revanche 51 world wide classics souffre d'un réel manque de mode challenge, pas de collectable à récupérer en jouant, rien. Je suis tombée sur le deck de carte mario uniquement parce que j'ai vu un screen sur ce site...

Bref, un jeu qui restera installé uniquement pour jouer aux cartes dans le train.

I, one day, hope to complete my series of mini reviews on every game in Clubhouse Games, but until then, I don't think it is right to let my thoughts on such a beautiful game go unspoken.

I, one day, hope to complete my series of mini reviews on every game in Clubhouse Games, but until then, I don't think it is right to let my thoughts on such a beautiful game go unspoken.

I love this game.

I saw recently that I put 65 hours into this game. That's rarified air for me. The only games I have that I've played more on Switch are

  • Animal Crossing
  • Breath O' the Wild
  • Smash Bros
  • Mario Kart
  • Gungeon (of the Enter variety)

Those are all games I adore. And maybe "Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics" sounds inappropriate in the mouth when uttered next to "Smash Bros", but the opposite is true when "Smash Bros" is uttered next to "Chess"- a game included in Clubhouse Games. It's all ridiculous. Like what you like. Just because Half-Life is supposed to be legendary doesn't mean you can't enjoy Dadish more. That's just tastes baby.

I don't care if this is a freako thing to say- Clubhouse Games is a masterpiece. There are so many perfectly designed games in this collection that even if you don't love Chess or Checkers or Othello or Mancala, there are still 47 games for you to love- many of which are exquisite.

Do I love every game in this collection? Heck no! Sorry is included in this (Ludo for my non-American friends), and Sorry can eat my boiled poo. But that doesn't stop my 5 out of 5 star review of Clubhouse Games because there are also beautiful moments like Hanafuda and Riichi Mahjong and President and Shogi.

I know I like to goof around on this site (Earlier today I said that Donkey Kong Country Freeze has the best story in video games), but I'm not goofing. I love Clubhouse Games, and I think you would too.

Finally, a video game I can play with grandma

I was able to leave my dislike for board game aside and actually gave an honest look at all the games in this collection. And I really enjoyed my time! I'm actually interested in going back to a couple of them (specially Renegade), but this kind of entertainment isn't really for me. The only reason I won't delete it from …

I was able to leave my dislike for board game aside and actually gave an honest look at all the games in this collection. And I really enjoyed my time! I'm actually interested in going back to a couple of them (specially Renegade), but this kind of entertainment isn't really for me. The only reason I won't delete it from my Switch its because it'll be great for family reunions (when the quaratine is finally over and I'm able to see my family again).

You can read my review in spanish here.

Best part of the game? Sound design. Dice colliding against wood sound magnificent.
