Showerthought: Spent $150 on a custom insert for my Arkham Horror box and it actually cut setup time from 20 minutes to 5

The organizer was expensive but now I actually get to play the game instead of just sorting tokens forever, has anyone else found a storage upgrade that was worth the money?

Tbh worth every penny for that time savings.

Did you try the folded space insert or something like it? I went with the Go7Gaming organizer for Marvel Champions and it was around the same price. Took my setup from a frustrating 15 minutes of digging through baggies to about 3 minutes. The difference is massive, especially when you just want to play a quick game after work. Now I actually reach for that game instead of avoiding it because of the hassle. Money well spent in my book.

Oh man, that's the exact right call. The hidden benefit nobody talks about with those inserts is how it changes your willingness to actually teach the game to new people. I've got a buddy who bought the Broken Token organizer for Terraforming Mars and now he actually brings it to game night instead of leaving it on the shelf because he's not dreading the 10 minutes of sorting cards. The money saves you from having to make that awkward "well, this game takes a while to set up" apology before you even start playing. It's a totally different mindset when you can just open the box and go.
