    Really interesting what you've said here about the upgrade - when we play we all tend to go for double specialites long double standard ingredients. Our reasoning is that with the standards being in the corners, it drags you to the far ends of the boards when there are more squares of them in the centre. Next time we play I might try the other way, and see if I can get that run away win! I'm also looking forward to the expansion with the cakes and some extra upgrades too!

    Thanks for your review. This game and its predecessor looks really interesting with the thematic story and exploration. If I get one, it would be this one for its more streamlined play. I think I would consider this game for solo play. It might be a bit challenging to get others to play because it’s so different than most board games.

    • @TradeIggyNow

      I just finished the original sleeping gods solo (second play through. First time I played with 4 players) and I loved it! Saw this sequel on sale for prime day and ordered it. Very excited to see how streamlined it is.

    Nice video, I currently have a 356 ELO on BGA, which by no means puts me anywhere near the top of the best Tapestry players, and I think you make some very valid points. I currently have around 250 plays on BGA and feel like I am still learning stuff about proper strategy. Its kind of crazy how much the game has changed for me since playing on BGA, where at my skill level I am averaging 325 points per game and often times the winner of games is much closer to 400 points. For a game with a fair amount of random elements it's amazing how much strategy can still play a huge factor. I have lost games where I have played what might be considered a stronger Civ against better players and got trounced. I find it to be a very rewarding game to play and just can't seem to get enough of it.

    The standard heroes are your "basic cookie cutters" like you say, but did you get to the epic heroes? They follow specific rules and make the game WAY more difficult. If your dungeon isn't ready when they start showing up, you're in for a world of hurt, lol

    • @TheLouzer_
      @TheLouzer_ 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Also, the fact that every card from the original Boss Monster is compatible in Super Boss Monster is amazing! Doesn't make me feel like I wasted all that money when I just want to play with the new rules, lol

  • @SanjuroSan
    @SanjuroSan 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The draft and town really fix this game for me. I hated the pure randomness in the card draw, just very few decisions and lack of player agency that it felt like it played itself more than I did. Watching a few play throughs of this, this looks a lot better and fixes what I hated. Also, in a 4+ player count can do a catan style player turn where the person who goes last goes first to place their minion\worker. Could be interesting. Thank you for your video dude!

  • @boullyorange
    @boullyorange 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    the game is truly great, but the replayability is really bad. i've finished the game once and we found and awakened over half of the totems in the whole game. we also found and beaten 7 bosses and we found over 7 passengers to bring back. in total our game took 28hours and the game end without spoilers was anticlimactic to say the least. we had no control over the end of the game whatsoever and we couldnt decide anything.

    • @LunarTweak
      @LunarTweak 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      the official veteran mode variant might help since the game timer is tighter. I did my first play through on normal w/ veteran mode and got 6 totems and maybe 3 passengers. I also got a quest to trigger the end at anytime, so even without veteran mode it’s probably best to end when you have 5 totems or so rather than exploring and buffing up further, otherwise ya, ending will feel anticlimactic.

    • @DiegoMendoza-lr8zq
      @DiegoMendoza-lr8zq 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It sounds to me that you rushed the game and probably made some mistakes that les you to skip important areas and cards. You should have read the rulebook again before beginning and play the game with patience to fully understand it.

      Tbh probably not. The only reason I could see bringing out the original is if I was playing a 4-player game - there are more characters and more things to manage. But even then, I'm not sure I'd want to go back to the old turn system
