This looks really cute
@@JayWoody-pt7ci it’s more adorable than I thought it would be!! 😍
Have we played this? If not put on to play next time!!!!
Thank you for this video it really helped us learned. One friendly comment though - it seems that there are actually three (3) rounds not 2. After the first set of assistants (2 player game) the location goes face down and then you add 2 more assistants and then the last location card, now face up. Hope this helps you enjoy the game a little longer.
@@tinchickh5625 thank you!!!
Well that made it look super easy. Like almost too easy. Hope we didn’t miss anything.
@@adriang6259 it’s really is that easy and fun!!
@@BoardGamingwithKonakat thanks 👍🙏
@@adriang6259 you’re welcome! Now go have fun playing! 💜
Anyone who's played Gary Grigsbys war in the east 1 or, Crusader Kings 2 (not 3) Hearts of Iron 3 or 4 with all expansions, Europa Universalis IV. Victoria 2 (not 3) and on and on will find this game extremely easy to pick up (which is a good thing). BGG 'weight' ratings are based essentially on how many rules there are.. As no human can ever book keep as well as a computer it's a given the computer games have the ability to be much *much* harder. All these are a cakewalk to pick up.
I love your positivity 😊
@@CraigPerkinsIndustries thank you!!! ❤️
I've never actually thought about this, but you are correct - some things are more fun to punch out than others. You're the first reviewer I've seen to comment on the quality of the unboxing experience. It would be interesting to know how many designers plan for the unboxing the way chefs plan the presentation of food.
@@greencommander9760 I hadn’t thought about that as deeply either! Sometimes the punch out experience can be quite the chore. For this one, we get cute little fruits and veggies and foraging items and it seems exciting and fun to me!
Thanks for the video. There is only one small thing about the assembly of the windmill. You need to anchor the small wheel on the right side in a way that any bolt between the gear-tooths matches the red gear-tooth on the large wheel. Check the pictures in the rulebook :)
I wanna play
@@CraigPerkinsIndustries let’s go!!!
looks interesting but looks really complicated to play
@@crossxfuse the solo campaign is meant to be more challenging as you go. I have a tutorial video on how to play the base game and I promise it’s not hard!! Def give this one a try if you’re able to! th-cam.com/video/wQd9jTOTFGM/w-d-xo.html
Nice clear voice, great job! The floodgate/water level phase seems tricky to teach, but I think you nailed it. The Market action is also tricky and I think you nailed that as well. My only two criticisms: 1 - most of the audio/video cuts have audible overlapping fades or sudden drops in volume. I'm not sure what you are editing with but I would recommend Camtasia. But your cuts were good otherwise, thank you for all that editing, it moved the video right along. 2 - thank you for putting chapters so we can zip to what we need. I wished you had put more, one for each part of the teach; floodgate, market, etc - check out Nithrania's videos, it makes it easy to use this video as a default teaching tool when the chapters are more thorough. Anyway, thank you for all your time on this, it will really help my wife and I get up and running! Bravo! subscribing for sure
@@ParlorPunch thank you for the feedback! Hope you and wife have fun in the Netherlands!!!
Omg you're cute as a button 😊
Do you think the special edition is worth it? Looks like an enormous box.
@@rurugby I love the updated artwork but unless your hardcore into all aspects of the game, it wouldn’t be worth the price tag. This big box has all the expansions, so if owning all those is important for you then definitely worth it.
Fun game
Nice video! 🤓
Thank you!!! ❤
Found your video on Board Game Arena! Super clear explanation! Thank you!
Thank you so much!!! Hope it helped you get some good wins!!! ❤
Great another amazing looking game. The view makes the box look 3 foot tall! 😮
@@TyvanTV it’s a beautiful game for sure!! The box is big but not that big!! 😄
Great video! Thank you for the helpful explanation.
@@powzar76 thank you and you’re welcome!
Just ordered this 1 off Zatu. I do like nature themed games such as Meadow and Keystone. I heard that the game can be somewhat unforgiving if your cards aren't coming out. But then again, I found Ark Nova to be the same in that respect. How do you like the game overall?
@@jerseyadventurer6717 I also enjoy keystone and meadow a lot! overall I enjoy this game but after a few play throughs we found the super winning strategy and then we end up just fighting over those cards…so it can be a pretty unbalanced once you discover the deer and wolves. If you want a lighter nature card game like Forest Shuffle, try Canopy. I have a video for it! We found that to be much more balanced (although there’s one killer card that we remove for fairness - the jaguar in a two player game can be brutal!).
the box itself makes it looks like it'll be a puzzle! it all looks very pretty but I'm interested to see how it all works lol
@@crossxfuse I’m interested to see the gameplay too! Next video will be the how to set up and play!
Well done!
@@grecorivera941 thank you!! This took me some time to get all the details right!!!
with so many dice and cards involved it looks like it'll be complicated to play, but man that artwork is amazing to look at it! it looks like a cover of a video game lol
The artwork is super cool! And hopefully I can make it easy to learn in my how to play video!!
Thanks for taking a look! Did you see this weeks update on TB2? We are in assembly and on the ocean in a few weeks! Getting close!
@@realdruidcitygames yes I’m so excited!!!!!
Scoring Update: You can score for a particular matching donut after placing a tile AND also score by boxing donuts!
Just discovered your channel. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!!!!
Thanks… I’ll be teaching this game on Sunday. You’re cute!
Thank you! And have fun on Sunday!!! Pro tip: hoard the deer and wolves 😜
Instead of binoculars, I need a magnifying glass to read these cards 😂 Such a thorough explanation of the game 👍👍👍
Definitely need some extra zoom to read these cards! I hope the video helped you enjoy the game!!!
This is the best explanation of the game - I now finally understand how to play. Thank you so much!
That’s great to hear!!!! Have fun playing!!!
This was SUPER helpful! Thank you so much - great video!!!
Yay!!!! I'm happy to help!!! Hope you get to enjoy playing the game now!!
Nice win!
Thank you!!! I was very happy with this one!!!
Are the silicone pads supposed to be sticky on BOTH sides?
They should not be sticky on both sides. Only one side should be sticky (that's the side you'd stick to the board)
Nice 🙂 PS! Forgot to say I am single, hehe.
You should check out my solo plays of Keystone!! 😜
Yeah, it is a pretty nice game 🙂
I enjoy it on bga and irl!
@@BoardGamingwithKonakat Yeah, I played it some on BGA. Got it irl too, but not the special tiles edition. Maybe that one in the future. I am a My City polyomino master, ranked no.1 in arena on BGA.
@@diamondmeeple I haven’t played the special tile version yet either. I got into platinum for Koi Koi arena - it was a GRIND!! Haha
Hello i love board games
I love board games too!
Thank you. This video was very helpful.
I’m glad it helped! This is such a fun game and I don’t want anyone getting discouraged by a giant rulebook!!
When do you move along the track around the board?
Are you asking when you score and move your scoring marker?
Thank you for this video. I knew CoB wasn't hard to learn, but the rulebook was a little daunting. Your video has helped me understand the game much more easily.
Thank you for the nice feedback!! The rulebook looks super daunting but the gameplay is really quite smooth once you see it in action. I hope you’re able to hop into the game a little easier now!!!
@@BoardGamingwithKonakat Going to run through it this weekend. Probably going to make some mistakes since that's what I always do on the first play of a game, but probably fewer mistakes will be made because of your video. Thanks!
@@jacobjslee mistakes are always normal with gaming! I've learned to accept it and go with the flow hahaha
Thank you for the explanation. It looks like a great game. I only miss the competitive element where you can hinder the other player. And i saw in other explanation that whoever rolls the white die changes. You did not tell that
A slight correction - at 3:10, you must remove four 3+ cards AND a 3+ Crow.
How to buy the deluxe version? I like the donut hat so much ❤
Go get it here! www.boardgamesdallas.com/products/donut-shop-deluxe-edition
@@BoardGamingwithKonakat thank you so much!!
Playing Happy City on boardgamearena.com
Very helpful video! I'm looking forward to playing it. How did you like the game if you've played it?
Happy to help! I loved the concept and theme and production of this game but had a hard time vibing with the gameplay itself. Let me know how you like it!
i like the look of this game, thanks for the review
It’s really nice! I like the Tetris style gameplay with some Copenhagen flair!
Great job on the video. I've never seen a video by you but after watching this I have subscribed to your channel.
Thank for such kind feedback! AND the sub!!! ❤
Subscribed!
Thank you so much!!!
Many thanks for this video about Redwood :-) We wish you a lot of fun with the game!
Thank you for making such a beautiful game!
I'm in love
It’s a beautiful game for sure!
@@BoardGamingwithKonakat uh huh 😉
Thankyou so helpful had read the rules but this confirmed all the rules for me thankyou ❤
You’re so very welcome!! Glad I could help!! ❤
