Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • If you enjoy games like The Crew, and enjoy poker, it is so good
  • Troyes, Hansa T, Agricola, Concordia, Scout, The Crew, El Grande...you have excellent taste in board games.
  • The Crew probably benefits from being so cheap. Hard to complain about a $15 game that gives you 50+ missions
  • Would you recommend as good co-op game? I love the crew and spirit island
  • The Crew if you want to play something fun cooperative with small footprint.

Cons

  • Imagine playing the Crew (simple numbered cards, limited communication co-op) but it twists more toward a logic puzzle than a trick taker.
  • Maybe The Crew? I feel like it'd add a nice sense of progression between plays as well. Plays about the same as long as you have greater than 2. Doesn't play great at 2 imo.
  • Trick taking games had a moment. The Crew, Arcs, Brian Boru
  • Best example so far is the game "the crew" from ubisoft, basicly a singleplayer racing game that could have perfectly been a single player game but they decided to make it multiplayer and when they shut down the server nobody could play...
  • If you like these games, then play the hell out of them as fast as you can, because they're basically next in line to follow what happened with The Crew.

My favorite games from your collection are probably The Crew, Fantasy Realms, Dune: Imperium Uprising and Five Tribes.

Since you've specified similar weight to Pandemic I'd say the best that comes to mind is **The Crew**. It's actually slightly lighter than Pandemic, but is a co-op trick taking game.

So all of my favorite co-op games feature some element of limited communication or simultaneous play - some examples are Mysterium, The Crew, So Clover, and Just One.
