Hi guys!
I have a Earthshaker pin in my collection and I'm looking to add another game.
Currently I'm looking into FT, Diner and High Speed II and would like to hear your advise.
Which game would you get? I would like a game with the highest "fun" factor so that it doesn't get boring soon as I'll be playing it a lot. Also having "deep" rules would be a bonus. I'm also looking into finding White Water but not having any luck so far.

What do you say?

Thanks guys for your feedback. Honestly - I have never played any of these games so I'm not sure what to expect. I still enjoy playing my Earthshaker (after 2 years) a lot so I think any of these will be upgrade in terms of the rules set?

Currently I'm leaning a bit towards Fish Tales for the theme and art, I'll get to try them out.
Fish Tales might be in the least good condition of the 3 so I think it will be a tough decision...

p.s. How does White Water compare to these games? (its more expensive here as well)
I have never played that one either.

p.p.s. I would like a game that is challenging and has a "goal" that is not that easy to reach so that it keeps me entertained for a long time.

Good idea - added!

Thanks guys for your help! The Fish Tales is in the house! I gave it a slight advantage as it felt a bit more complex rules wise (this based only on watching youtube clips and reading rules sheet) then HS2, and because I liked the goofy art and sound (+ fishing theme).
I think I'll need to get a Getaway down the line as well judging from your feedback (never had a chance to play one still ).
