In today's video I discuss my top 10 favorite closed drafting games. These are games where you are privately passing things around the table, making selections from the things that are passed to you. I've included games where the draft is a prominent feature (not an option).

Great drafting games that aren't closed drafts: 7 Wonders Duel, Azul, Castles of Burgundy, Dice Miner, Faraway, Harmonies, Potion Explosion, Sagrada, Patchwork, Point Salad, Roll Player, and Stamp Swap
