Hi everyoooone, it's (apparently a professional video editor) Wheels here! We're snipping out those outtakes using TH-cam's editing software at the moment. Thank you to all of you who pointed them out, please enjoy being smug that you got to see them all before they were axed x
Or hey, just splice in that multicoloured screen and beep that you get when TV signal dies, and they'll all look like deliberate style choices!
On a serious note, thanks, that was a fun video.
Its TH-cam Vérité! Tres cool.
Honestly, the screw-ups made this video great.
No need to edit it, it made it even more fun to watch :)
@@sigmacorvid1003 Certainly they made it longer.

0:36 Cube QuestZ
5:12 Flipships
7:44 Catacombs
13:32 Flick 'Em Up
18:46 Rhino Hero Super Battle
I liked seeing the alternate takes left in. When people are talking about something they are passionate about they can get carried away trying to convey that passion to someone new. This isn't some big budget movie that has been meticulously planned and replanned, shot and reshot. It's a guy talking about games he loves to play and why he loves to play them.
Agreed I would love them to stay in!
Anybody else notice the FlipShips box was upside down, and the title was legible?
Talk about a satisfyingly clever design.
Cube Quest: Flicking soldiers across the board.
Fun fact: that's how I play Warhammer.
😂
That's not how to play warhammer?
Tom Scott invented Chess Clock Jenga, and it is amazing. Get a free chess clock app, set it to 1 minute for each player, and let the raucous fun begin.
Is that the guy ?
The outtakes were fun :) It's easy to get lost when you're explaining something you really enjoy and it was a nice touch leaving it in
Please keep doing content like this! I'd love more videos where you quickly review games (could even link them to your longer reviews). Helpful for someone who wants more games but isn't sure what just yet.
Cube Quest: lost pieces, the boardgame.
Not only I loved Cube Quest and Catacombs, but I also loved the video itself. Great speaking and explaining.
I'm so glad that TH-cam introduced me to this channel. Love you guys!
Loved the fact you guys left in afew mess ups :) its nice to see you guys are just as human as the rest of us and sometimes need a few takes to get it right ;)
I don’t know what I enjoy more, the outtakes or how Wheels desperately defends Rhino Hero Super Battle as a serious adult board game :D
Either way, I empathize. :)
Super Serious Adult Board Game for Ages 5 & Up!!
The most Adultiest Adult Dexterity Based Game EVER!!
Great video...that first game, Cube Quest, looks like a blast! I thought for sure you were going to have Crokinole as the final game.
I have to say, the outtakes where really weird to find in the video, but really really interesting to watch.
I mean, I don't wish to see them in all the videos (maybe at the end?) But it really shows how passionate you are.
Wheels, you sound like a person born to talk about board games. Subscribed!
Cube Quest in particular here looks great. I admit dexterity games aren't my favorite, but these still looked fun.
Catacombs has been a favorite of mine for quite some time. Looks like they've really updated it since I picked it up almost 10 years ago!
Wheels: "....but Jenga is for cowards."
Me: *silently stops following Wheels on all accounts and considers unsubscribing, but stays **_just_** for Johnny*
Haha yes.
I was just playing Jenga over the holidays with the nephews and thought it held up well as a fun game to play with the younger kids. None of the games in this video really do quite the same thing - and at least some of them seemed like they would be an easy way to make a mess or just plain lose pieces. Flicking pieces at each other? Oh man, that's going to end badly almost every time, haha! Jenga beats every one of them, to me.
I feel like if anyone tells Andy from Oxbox about Flick 'em Up, Oxbox will become a dexterity game channel overnight.
I was going to suggest Dicebreaker to invite Andy for a run of Flick 'em Up.
The Most Ambitious Crossover in all of TH-cam
No Junk Art, That is one hell of a game!
Great video, personally I really enjoy, and can recommend, Librium.
Nice easy game that can be stuck in a pocket and setup anywhere for a bit of fun.
Lots of breathless moments as you go for the more complicated hanging points or laughter when you inevitably fail.
Cube Quest was awesome at Pax Unplugged! Love seeing you guys play with SU&SD!
This was delightful :P
Omg love the uneditedness of this video
Cube Quest looks like it'd be great for a live stream.
I finally understand what was happening in that Rhino Hero Super Battle stream
My top 3:
3. Flick 'em up
2. Crokinole
1. Pitchcar
The Table is Lava is a quick and fun little dex game using meeples and cards.
Cube quest reminds me of marbles. Just with dice and extra steps.
In case you dont know. Marbles is a game where you shoot a big marble to hit smaller ones out of a circle. Who ever hit out out the most of the smaller one wins.
Nice video, would have been great if you'd stuck with games that are readily available though :) try getting your hands on cube quest nowadays...
The flick ‘em up scenario reminds me of red dead redemption when John is saving Ms. McFarland.
This show is so delightful.
Bling Bling Gemstone (and Tok Tok Woodsman) is very fun. As is Safranito. I haven't yet played Flick Wars, but I am looking forward to it.
Whoa - does Cube Quest come with a three piece mat now? No more two-piece mat that's invariably creased to hell?
Amazing!
I enjoy Tokyo Highway and recently picked up Seal Team Flix because it looks great, but haven't tried it yet.
15:00
D'aww, does Wheels like the itty-bitty buildings and the tiny clock? Of course he does!
I would like to suggest menara as a tower building dexterity game, and dungeon fighter is very fun as well!
The Jenga king sits on a shakey foundation. These young princes will topple his tower
CROKINOLE!!!!!
Great choices. Crokinole is of course a classic as others have noted, but the one that I'd really like more people to try out is Klask. Search it on TH-cam and see if it's your jam. My wife and I play it frequently, and sometimes the combination of skill and chaos has us laughing so hard... but also so competitive. Such a good game. Pitch Car is the other classic that, if you have lots of money and lots of space, is a really fun game for big groups. But seriously.. Klask. It's a better version of air hockey... in a way smaller package... with magnets!
Hi, there's this new card game called "Lagim Card Game". It is a Filipino folklore-inspired game composed of villain deck, lagim cards, lakas cards, and hiwaga cards.
You might want to mention how ridiculously out of print Cube Quest is...
Sounds like a problem that a 3d printer could solve
crockinole!
A recent discovery for my group: Menara. It's absolutely amazing, highly recommended :)
Awesome video! It bothers me a little that a majority of the time you're talking, I can't see anything but the box... it would be nice to include more shots of the games, or at least a wider angle where I can really look at the pieces involved. Thank you for listening to my thought :)
The flipship font is absolutely BRILLIANT! Look closely and you might see why ^^
This is the most I've heard the word honk since watching videos of Untitled Goose Game.
I suffer from Essential Tremor, a benign neurological condition which causes my hands to shake uncontrollably.
Watching people play games like these always makes me insanely jealous.
However, ET has also allowed me to form my own unique handwriting style, and sometimes I just sit and write nonsensical phrases just to admire the weird beauty of it.
(Fun Fact: Famous actress Katharine Hepburn also had ET!)
”You desire to know the art of living, my friend? It is contained in one phrase: make use of suffering.” - Henri-Frédéric Amiel
Tip: Flick em up can be done with lego
Pretty old game, but what are your thoughts on Topple?
Great video.
Guessing you're a different Michael Whelan than the guy who did the art for Nalathni Dragon in Magic: The Gathering?
Was your sunday dinner/pub calling and thought ah I'm sure no one will notice the retakes.
How about PitchCar? Haven't played it yet, but it's on my list...
Kind of an old video but I like your philosophy when you talked about Rhino Hero, saying that the game is primarily designed for children but who cares, it's fun.
In fact, something being "for kids" don't always mean much and some concepts that seem appealing to children at first glance can easily be extended to something more appropriate for adults.
The best exemples I could mention are Cartoons and video games.
For a long time, both were considered for kids but then some peoples experimented with more grown up things (Comics and Anime if we're talking about Cartoon) using those supports and now, the roles had sometimes completely shiffted.
Have you played Kingdom Death Monster?
Wheels you forgot the best dexterity game: Mikado♥️
Surprised you didn't include Terror in Meeple City.
I wish I had friends to play these games with.
GAMES BETTER THAN JENGA!!!!!! WOW! That's a very low bar.
Cube Quest is not available for sale anymore :(
I call this list: Wheels likes to flick things. And Rhino Hero.
Rampage is a fun dexterity game!
Catacombs really look great, but boy it's also quite expensive!
I feel like you are missing two great dexterity games here. Rampage (or Terror in Meeple City) and Dungeon Fighters.
Safranito is a really good one!
I feel like the game Catacombs was made for Johnny and Wheels to do a Let’s Play of it.
Not to brag or anything, but I have all five of these and Flick Em Up is by far my favourite. It’s just so much fun and has a great layer of tactics on top of a genuinely great theme.
Would building a House of Cards qualify as a Dex game?
i will suggest to check "Dungeon Fighter" from cranio creation, a silly coop dungeon crowler with dice dexterity it's a ton of fun
YAY Dungeon Fighter! That would be my #1 on a dex game list :-)
Can has Let's Play of Catacombs???
Would like to see Wheels and Johnny with Catacombs myself. However, Shut up and Sit down have a good Catacombs video.
The ultimate game of dexterity is getting cheese at night
Looks cube quest is unavailable :( that’s sad it looked veery good!
This list is flawed. No crokinole.
THIS!
Hard and expensive to get started. But great. Love LRR's board.
*flashbacks to rhino battle live*
Lift It and Cat Tower!
Anyone know if Cube Quest is even still in production? Can only find people selling in on Ebay for daft money.
Really? That sucks.
Well that sucks.
I don't know if anyone else agrees but...
That sucks!
Damn. That sucks.
What about Ice Cool!? That is my fav dex game.
Bring cube quest to Pax Unplugged! Please!
Cube Quest looks fun
Mine are: Crokinole, Junk Art, Menara, Safranito, and Bandu
Oh no you forgot to edit the video as one last outtake
I can't really find where I can order Catacombs for a reasonable price in europe... I'm absolutely dying to get the game but everywhere I look it's like 80 euros or more :c Can you help me? Maybe you know a site where I can buy it cheaper
I believe they're still waiting on fulfilment deliveries for their newest edition in Europe so you might be better off waiting for that!
@@dicebreaker Ohh that's great! Thank you for answering my question!
1:49 Holy shit, I thought that the box was placed there in some sort of after effect, took my brain a split second to work out how Wheels managed to bring it into our existence.
We need a list of either dex games, or just quick games to play whilst drunk/getting drunk.
Also, Agnej > Jenga
I really enjoy Wonky Blocks by Tactic Games
Meeple Circus, especially with kids
Crokinole or Carrom with all else a long way behind. Pitchcar is decent too. Crokinole takes about 1 minute to teach and is incredibly addictive
a game that looks better then cube quest is crokinole
do you need a Video editor ?? i'm currently between jobs
Try sending em' an email with correct grammar if you still need the job. 😉
Someone forgot to edit out the outtakes lol
Best dexterity game ever is Rollet. I believe Target has a mass market version called Bonk, which is still probably better than any other dexterity game ever made, except Rollet. Spring for the real deal if you can, though. Rollet is the most fun 4 people can have with their clothes on.
The volume iks a little low, but otherwise a terrific video!
Jenga is indeed for cowards, real heroes play alcoholic-dare-strip-Jenga!
Hi dudes found a game u may want to give ago it’s called bag of dungeon by gun powder studios would love to see a review and what u think of it 👍👍
Clearly, you've never played handheld Jenga (part joking, but seriously, try holding a Jenga tower in one hand and see how high you can build it - solo in case thats not obvious).
Jenga is actually great if you use a chess clock
Jenga is great, playing blind!
Cube quest being out of print really hurts
I was disappointed by the emphasis on "aim and flick" games. I was hoping for more Jenga alternatives that requires the skills of balance and judging weight distribution. Flicking at a target is a totally different physical skill.
Take a look at Catch the Moon, it’s a reverse-jenga tower building game that relies on the physics of ladders. I had a great time with a group of people at a convention playing it.
Tokyo Highway is probably closer to the type of dexterity game you're looking for.
