I really really hope Tom just asked the team to record themselves making that face without giving any context.
I love seeing this boy roam free, grazing on whatever scripting or editing satiates him. Let him continue to wander into grander pastures
It has been a fantastic journey watching him grow into his own, hasn't it?
Oh, no no no. I'm not his Mommy
Maybe... but what is happening at 16:11 ?
*jurassic Park tune played on a recorder*
@@jOmegaK Experimental magic? Throwback to disco?
Tom's whiteboards are uncannily tidy... The writing is straight, the density of detail is really even, very uniform use of colors and spacing... Does he have a degree in graphical whiteboard design or something??
Look at that subtle colouring. The tasteful thickness. Oh my God. It even has a watermark.
That's a doctorate in whiteboard design thankyou!
Ironically, I suspect he plans them out on paper first.
@@Seryn88 A medical doctorate.
"so what do you like most about SU&SD? the thoughtful review? the charm and wit? the welcoming, inclusive environment?"
"oh, yeah that stuff's cool too. mainly i like when the grown men eat cubes though"
I like the artistic liberty they are giving to Tom. My guess is that in a few more videos we are going to get some really very weird experimental reviews from him, with drone post rock music, no words at all... only feelings, to convey if a board game is recommended or not
Lol
Can’t wait
That would honestly be really fun as a semi-joke review. Like take some tiny game and do some kind of interprative dance out of it just to cement tom's place as the most insane boy
Uncanny game review when
Review of The Mind would absolutely fit this sort of style!
Tired: Mid-review turnaround
Wired: Caveat Cupboard
I want to be a tech tree when I grow up.
I hear you need to plant a Stone Axe as a seed.
@@TorIverWilhelmsen I thought you needed to bury Pottery.
"My techtree can beat your techtree up!" - This person's kid.
I think you mean tech giant. Or giant tree??
I want to be a tree giant when I grow up.
I can't believe Tom is giving us all these 11/10 Videos.
Tom has gone from the promising new kid on the block to the jewel in SU&SD's crown in record time.
I hope all the suasd crew are doing well, really hope soon we get the multiple people in these skit style reviews like old.
Allowed back in people's houses from the 17th, so I'd guess you'd see stuff in June.
I want to see them play twilight imperium again!
I read that as the suicide crew.
Oh no.
@@marrioman13 Insane to me that so few parts of the world believe that who is an is not allowed in ones home is up to the government and not the homes owner.
I hope 'party popper sound effect' makes more appearances.
It did my head in that there was no actual sound effect! :p
This might be the first time that SU&SD hasn't sold the stock out, because the stock was already sold out.
And now, probably: Preorders for the expan-Sun.
Here's hoping my FLAGS manages to pick up a few in the upcoming reprint.
They did talk about this game in a podcast a good while ago, which might have caused it to sell out.
It’s currently in stock at GameNerdz
Oh man, the Diddy Kong Racing music takes me back
If you had asked me if I remembered any music from it, I would have said no. And yet
Hey Tom, just popping in to let you know what an awesome job you're doing. To be honest, when you first joined su&sd I wasnt so sure about you, but I've seen you grow so much as a TH-camr and reviewer and I love it. You're fantastic; keep doing what you do :)
“Doesn’t have a single Ruth in it”. Best phrase ever.
Dude. I paused for a moment.... "Did he just? ... Yeah, he did." That was amazing.
I didn't get that joke.
@@macurvello Its ruthless
I'm beginning to think you all at SUSD have an inside joke where you have to fit the word "smorgasbord" into every episode and I'm here for it
The fact that you made a Diagnosis Murder reference in the middle of a review of a sci-fi Tech Tree-focused board game is why I love this channel...you guys all make great reviews, with great info, but that also always somehow manage to get me dying laughing in the middle of them...
Keep being superb, and I look forward to seeing what you review next!
+1 for subliminal last second Quinns
The doctor bit was fantastic
I genuinely laughed out loud. That was the classic SU&SD humor that made me fall in love with the brand.
That ending. I was chuckling when he got in the box, laughing when he grabbed the whiteboard and lost it when he took the dice and freaking ate them.
I love how all of Tom’s reviews can be lined up to watch his slow descent into Pandemic Insanity
I’m not sure if Mr Tom Brewster will see this but I would like to congratulate you sir on what is one of the best SU&SD reviews I have seen. Been watching these guys for a few years now and this one knocks it out of the park. Was chuckling the whole way through.
Loved this video! Great pacing, just the right amount of “how to play” detail, and lots of wonderful humor.
"Where have they come from? Where are they Growing?"
Tom you've done it again
I bought this recently and certainly like it, but I think it's more of a middleweight game than it appears. There are great tactical decisions to be made, but strategically, it basically boils down to either being the stronger player on the tech board or the stronger player on the colonisation board. For more experienced strategy gamers, it might feel like a stool missing a leg. Hoping it sells well enough for an expansion to give another path to victory.
This is one of the best review videos I've seen from this channel. It's wonderful to see Tom grow into this role, and I look forward to more great work from him and the rest of the team.
'Inexplicably grimy security footage' made me laugh =]
My god the opening 1min 32secs are a master class in SUSD humor
When I first saw Tom join SUSD I was a bit apprehensive of this newcomer to the excellent wit of the crew. But I believe he has more than made us all fall in love with his personality and charm!
16:48 Well right in the feels. Did not hear this music for +-25 years. Was it Diddy Kong racing?
If it's no DKR it was made to sound like it. It's amazing how our brains work! Just a few seconds of the soundtrack can bring soooo many memories!!
My therapist says Extended Whiteboard Thumb can't hurt me, but the voices say otherwise.
The memories invoked with your use of wavy WordArt text! Those were simpler times....
"Party Popper Sound Effect!" - The delivery on this one line literally couldn't be any better. Magical!@
Watching Tom's reviews is like watching the SUSD of old, but with his own twist and character - love them!
"The atmosphere is dark, and the tone is... panic"
The caviat cubbard is my new favorite section
Fantastic review Tom! I discovered this game just yesterday on BGA and have watched a few videos on YT to get a better grasp on how it works. Your review is both informative and highly entertaining!
Is this seriously only your 12th video? It feels like you've been doing this a lot longer than that.
It is remarkable how quickly Tom found his own voice, but I'm sure he at least worked on many of the SUSD videos before he began making his own.
Haha so true, he is hilarious, and also much more comfortable than his first vids. Great new team member
I love the Diddy Kong Racing music towards the end. I really didn’t expect that 😅
1:32 I'm tempted to make this my phone's new lock screen.
Really enjoyed the Diddy Kong Racing music. I like that Tom can appreciate video games that came out before he did.
Best review I’ve seen in a very long time. Top job team!
On a serious note, I saw this on the shelf. Now I'm intrigued.
Probably not on the shelf much longer...
Love the Diddy Kong Racing music during BEYOND THE EXPANSION!
Plus the cupboard
that closet caveat and coming out the box, I am dying man xD
This game has been on my radar. Now it will be sold out, so I don't have to worry about it! Thanks SUSD! :)
It's on Boardgame Arena if you want a digital substitute.
Today I learned Tom pronounces "Goblin" like "Gobolin" and now I too will only pronounce it like this
Happy to have you folks back at the reviews!
Amazing video Tom. Certainly see you are coming along as a very talented reviewer.
I really love Tom's style of board game review. Tom what did we tell you the cubes are not pills
I could tell pretty early on this wasn't my sort of game, however, it's becoming a common theme that a Tom video is ridiculously entertaining, no matter the game!
SU&SD needs to win some kind of reward for Best Use of Large Cardboard Boxes in a Game Review Video Series
HOW MUCH TECH TREE????
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

MOAR TEX
Wow, surprise Diagnosis Muder. Haven't heard theme that in forever!
Definitely my favourite Tom video so far. Really well done!
Tom is bringing a lot to these reviews - weirdness, enthusiasm, computer graphics reminiscent of 1990s educational programs, whiteboards - and I’m loving all of it.
One of the best reviews on this channel, just brilliant. Thank you!
The second "raised eyebrows" got me lol
Don't think I didn't catch that Steely Dan in the back there
Came here to say this. Bernard Purdie FTW
I've watched 1:17 of the video and I already feel this could be my favourite video of all time.
I love this boy and I came back to watch this you tube again.
I appreciate the Easter Eggs/In-Jokes. Especially cramming in 3 (maybe more) in the last scene
Worth watching this all the way to the end, The last few frames made me smile :)
That music at the 17:45 really hit that "Diddy Kong Racing" nerve from my childhood.
Loving the Diddy Kong racing music during the expansion explanation.
Excellent review, you've gotten really good at this!
A masterful review. Tom just gets funnier and funnier and I think we all appreciate his youthful perspective :D (I'm in my 20s and his humor and reviews speak to me on a spiritual level)
"Where have they come from? Where are they growing?" is exquisite.
Was the music during the expansion section from diddy kong racing?
Also great review as usual :)
So many loud laughs during this video! Great work.
The Diddy Kong Racing 🏁 music in the background was great 👍
That doctor bit was brilliant!
Best SUSD review I've seen in a while, it reminded me of the older ones I fell in love with in the first place!
Hearing Diddy Kong Racing music gives me life and joy.
In the 3P game you go for 3 achievments on the cards to trigger end game as well!
I hate this boy and i'm never watching "A TH-cam" again!
In all seriousness, I absolutely love the energy Tom brings to the show and have been quite interested in this game for a bit. Good to know it gets the Brewster Seal of Pretty Good Game.
Is...is that the Diagnosis Murder theme...? lol
My thought exactly!
I tried this game on BGA and loved it! The planets map, mentioned in passing in the video, is such a beautifully elegant piece of design! The whole game is beautifully elegant!
That’s you!
I love the Diddy Kong Racing song at the end. I feel like Tom was a character in that game.
This is one of the best videos Tom has done. 10/10. Would watch again.
this has a very brass eye-esque feel, and i am absolutely here for it
This was great. More of Tom being as weird as he wants, please.
The writing and the production value is getting better by the video.
I love how the gamefeel reminds of the mouthfeel from Brooklyn 99, but I hate that the crew got a collective haircut while in Canada we are still in lockdown.
I prefer mouthfeel from Contrapoints, but all g
I enjoy hearing the Diddy Kong Racing music again.
The Diddy Kong Racing music makes me so happy!
Just got my SUSD tee shirt! Love the merch guys :)
Had this game sitting on my shelf for a few months. This review helped get it to the table! We all had a blast! Loved how the tech tree evolving shaped the gameplay. One player pushed military so all the sudden planet hopping became the obvious choice!
Dude! Haha I mean this as a compliment, and nothing against any other review (because I like them all) but that might be the best review I've watched since the Crokinole review (my 1st experience with SUASD)! Bravo! Bravo! Jolly good show!
I really appreciate this video. I've been a bit critical of Tom since I felt he was always doing an impression of Quinns but in this instance I felt he had his own personality. More of this please.
My fundamental contribution to the board gaming community here will be this:
I discovered "SUMAC" three years ago; I never heard of it before. I will never let go of it anymore! it is FANTASTIC to prepare meat, both white and red, before grilling it. Try it, you won't regret it!
im a big fan of the shut up and sit down board game review show on TH-cam.com
The cardboard box gag. Brilliant. *Crube kiss*
I also now need to go back and rewatch Diagnosis Murder.
I don't wanna diminish how much I enjoyed the rest of this video, but that last second was great.
Amazing review Tom! Love a good Tom review
Tom has been such a great addition to SU&SD
Gosh darn it, that was a solid video Tom. I was non-plussed by the very blah art and the "dryness" of BtS, but thanks to your thorough review I think I'll have to give the game a go somewhere online.
Tom you killed this one, loved the review.
Just got this game yesterday, hope i get a chance to play a board game again this year.
Im so tired that I just saw "the best tech tree in games?" and not "beyond the sun review", thinking this video was a list of the best tech trees in games, to which I audibly said "I really like Mothership's tech tree" and then noticed this wasnt a question for me to answer, and that Im alone and need coffee.
You're never alone with a tech tree strand
Had to pause the video at 1:32. Feels great to see the gang complete again.
