Great run-through Mike! Enjoyed watching it very much.
Nick Shaw Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
One rules clarification: Rain action: You can't rain 2 drops from 1 cloud, it's 1 drop from each of up to 2 clouds. So if you only choose 1 cloud, you still only rain 1 drop from it. P9 of rules: "...place *one* drop from each of the chosen clouds"
Nick Shaw Yes, this was indeed confirmed by the designer after I had turned in the video. I believe I had heard or read elsewhere that it worked the way I played it, but you are correct.
I was on the fence about this game but being able to play solo makes it a great idea for me!
It's especially nice in a game that features area majority mechanics. It's hard to pull that off in a solo variant.
Game looks really cool aesthetically and a cool unique theme. Great Run through Mike, hope you do more of these
Ramonosuke Thank you! I absolutely love the theme for this one. I plan on doing more as long as there is interest!
Ooh, and another rules clarification: In the final round, ALL weather spaces with ANY votes (above 0) get resolved, not just the 2 with most votes (p12 of rulebook, the 'Exception' bit in 1st paragraph). Not sure if it would have made much difference to the final score (your 12vp from wheat bonus probably still would have won you the game), but it gives important strategic decisions to that final round.
Nick Shaw Good point, Nick! I knew that, but just got lost in the details.
Yep, it's easy to forget when playing it solo, especially when also trying to narrate your decisions to the camera. :)
everything about this game sings. the design looks clean, fresh theme, the artwork is beautiful, and your run-through makes the solo mode look fun to play. thanks for sharing! hope to have a chance at it sometime.
I couldn't have said it better myself. There is also an expansion that adds a lot of variety.
that is excellent news! can't wait for this to be more widely available...if it will be.
I'm pretty sure this will be widely available relatively soon.
Excited to get the Collector’s Edition this weekend. Thanks for the solo play through. You’re always a great watch.
👍🏽🌧🌱
Looks so good, glad I backed this beauty!
This was great even though it was so long ago I just received this game. This play through really helped me understand the game especially the trading two cards for another action. Thank you.
You lucky SoB. Just got the update we have to wait till January. Happily backed as it was called Dominant Species Lite and had Solo!
fearanarchy Yes, I was really lucky. A friend of mine went to Essen, and brought this back for me. There were very few copies available apparently.
There were 57 copies they air-freighted in in total, I believe, and almost all those went as KS backers' pickups and to reviewers. So you were indeed lucky to get one of the few!
Great video. Been wanting to learn to play this for ages. This did the job! Thanks
Also, No Mini Pizza Tables to hold the clouds???? Pfft. I saved some since July for this game!!
A really enjoyable video. One thing i want to mention: you forgot to take 1 wheat token at 43:07 so you finished with +12 points
What rating would you give the Collector's Edition from a solo perspective?
Thank you for this video! Very clear explanations and thought processes.
Thanks for that Brice!
Mike! Redo this video with all the expansions!!! Thanks haha
I know this is a super old video to be asking a rules question but maybe someone will see and answer. The AI card #4, "add a cloud" with raindrops, if the dice roll is a tile that already has a cloud, does the new cloud combine or does it go to the next available tile? thanks
Does the neutral player (AI) get one additional turn as described in the 2 player PASSING section (pg7) after you pass?
Nope! There is a variant on the updated rules that includes a variant called One More Turn Variant which lets the neutral player get one additional turn after the player passes :)
20:23 Yes, it is remarkably unfortunate. 😮
