I love how at 27:15 you get right to the core of the matter. If we like the same kind of games as you, we will very likely like this game. And that's the reason most of us watch your videos, right? Because we are fans of yours and share much of your tastes. Also, it is really great to see you highlight the strengths of other TH-cam channels, and stick with what you know and do best, which is to focus on the gameplay and mechanisms. Thinker/Themer also make great videos and do great reviews, and the asset that they bring when it comes to diving into themes is one of their strengths. Kudos to you for recognizing things like that and just promoting the larger community. It's really nice to see. In the past I have looked to your videos to help me make a decision about whether or not to back or buy a game, but in this case it merely solidified what I knew already, which is that backing this is a no-brainer! Thank you for your thoughtful preview.
I've been super fortunate to get to do some early playtesting on this game and it's absolutely brilliant! I actually received a prototype copy and I was instantly mind-blown by the quality of all of the art and components! 😱 So excited for the Kickstarter to launch tomorrow! Thanks for making this great preview video!
@@BoardGamingRamblings I think the gameplay will be even stronger with some of the changes that are on the way! Can't wait to play the final version of the game!
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video and that it was helpful to you! When we say race, just to be clear, it’s not a racing game, but one where it really quickly escalates towards the end, and it can be a race to get the reputation and end the game. The end game triggers are very player dependent, which is a mechanism I really enjoy!
The structure of this video is really well done! I really love racing games. Imo it should be mentioned in the teach that it is a racing game, because most people enjoy those games more if they're going in prepared.
If you are like us, and usually don’t care about theme, then it doesn’t matter at all! I forget the theme in 99,99% of all euro games I play after around 10 minutes in! 😂
Yeah, we have so far decided to not rate in previews, but still consider it as a review in every other way! We have changed this up in the last half year or so, as we didn’t feel like we (or the audience) got anything out of previews that was just an overview with no opinions! I think I like this better than Sabika, and probably about the same amount as Woodcraft, but hard to say!
@@BoardGamingRamblings Yes! Totally got a lot out of this and a preview would not be nearly as helpful for me! Looks like this is going to be a really good game!

Such an amazing game for sure! It was a lot of fun to play, and I just wish I could continue playing, hehe!

Great Preview - appreciate the point about it feeling like a racing game. Helps me make a informed decision

Thank you for the excellent preview! So glad you enjoyed it 💡
Thank you, Jonny! So happy you enjoyed the video! 🥳 All the best with the campaign! It’s gonna be a huge hit! 🤩
Thank you for this preview.
It sure looks pretty. The theme does nothing for me, but it doesn't sound like that is that big of a deal 🙃

BGG says the weight is 3.71, this feels much higher to me, well over 4, am I wrong?
The BGG rating usually goes down, but here I feel like it’s pretty spot on. 3.7, which BGG calls a Medium Heavy game. I agree with that!
War of the Ring the Card Game review! Get on it!
It’s on the shelf! Will hopefully have a video before christmas :)
Still holding out hope for a Crossing Oceans review. Someday…
It’s coming! We’re reviewing as fast as we possibly can 😅
No rating because it’s a prototype? Where does this one fall against Revive, Sabika, Woodcraft, etc. for you two?
