One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game. The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure). I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos! *************************************** Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction & Channel Updates 07:08 - Essen 2025 In General 20:05 - Essen Review Copies Discussion #brokenmeeple #essen #bgg #videogames #honestreviews #top100 #top10 #boardgames #meeple #supportsmallcreators #tabletop #tabletopgames *************************************** Useful Links Become a Patreon ► www.patreon.com/TheBrokenMeeple Facebook ► www.facebook.com/thebrokenmeeple Twitter ► twitter.com/TheBrokenMeeple Instagram ► www.instagram.com/thebrokenmeeple Podcast ► @luke-hector-broken-meeple Full credit to BoardGameGeek and its members for any images used that aren't my own or part of the publisher press kit.
