Middle Ages vs. Majesty For the Realm - What's the difference and which one's better?

Description provided by ThinkerThemer on YouTube:

The charming but OOP game Majesty For the Realm is back with an all new art style, new rules, and new publisher. We love the original but it's hard to ignore the improvements in the new game... are they different enough to keep both??

We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience. #boardgames #tabletopgames #thinkerthemer ❤🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺
