How to Solo: Cartographers
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2019
- Join me for a playthrough of Cartographers: A Roll Player Tale, designed by Jordy Adan and published by Thunderworks Games. We will be mapmakers charting unknown territory for Queen Gimnax-but will we please her enough to earn a fancy title?
Thunderworks Games sent me a prototype of this game for review. I have preordered a copy of the game with my own money.

I just bought this and you have helped me with so many other games that I was happy to see you cover Cartographers.
This was so great! I tried to play solo, and scored -15 points! But, it was still super fun, and that’s what makes a game worthwhile!
I enjoyed watching. Thanks! Liked and subscribed
Great playthrough
What a brilliant little game. Many thanks.
I really like your channel Liz! I got "Fleet the dice game" because of you and I really like it. I am thinking about getting Cartographers now.
I'm glad to be helpful! :)
i cant wait to try this.
nice solo game thank you Liz
I'm definitely late to this one I've ordered it today and can't wait to get started
I played along and got 66! My record, borderlands in "D" is very powerful cause you have so much time to make those lines
So mad I missed my chance to try it!
Thanks!
So...I played along, but I used the B side. That borderlands scoring card really pays off with the wasteland! I got an amazing score of 161!
Evan Schmalz Nice!
31:00, I thought for sure you would take the 5 Hamlet shape and and plug that into the bottom right where the monsters were! You would have still gotten a coin from the bottom mountain, completed a row, and knocked off 2 monster boxes! It's so damn easy for me to Monday morning quarterback this stuff as opposed to play it myself!
Thanks for the awesome playthrough, Liz!
LOL yeah I can't talk and game at the same time... at least, not well...
@@BeyondSolitaire I just submitted my review for the game on BGG and plugged your playthrough as a good option for people who are visual learners!
Great explanation and now interested in getting this one too!😊
Don’t enjoy “ take that” though and glad solo doesn’t play with it but playing with others too, so not sure if good buy for me.
Do you play enough solo that it is worth buying?
Is there another option then take that you could think of? Could you choose your own place to ambush like in solo variant?
Thanks so much. I had been excited about this game, but was really turned off by the take-that aspect of the Ambush cards. Your playthrough has me back on the bandwagon since it looks really fun as a solo experience. Thanks again, Liz.
I think the ambush cards are cool as they bollocks up your plans...I guess you can just keep them out of the deck if you so choose......
I like the ambush cards, but use the solo rules in multiplayer games for using them. :)
Think you missed a coin on the last card. So a legendary 38 :D
Just played my first game. 7 points. I thought I was doing great, but I was right in the middle. LOL Can't wait to play again!
Woohoo!👍🏻
great playthrough! it help me a lot! at 33:56 you cover a ruin without flipping a ruin card, it's possible to do that? because in the same area it could be possible to draw the figure without touching the ruin. Thanks!!
Thank you for making this video, I got lucky I think, scored 107 after subtraction.
What are your top 5 R&W?
You'll have to wait for the video! (I need to play one more thing first...)
How or would you see this game in your top 5 roll & writes?
I actually just released that video! :) th-cam.com/video/7t_UZIAbQbk/w-d-xo.html
Note to self: watch Liz’s video BEFORE attempting to play 😀 I totally messed up the scoring.
Lol me too
Me too 😂
Aww.. You messed up the 2nd ambush
Great vid tho. Very helpful.
I mess up every video lol I can be trusted for the overall flow of a game but I just cannot talk, film, and play simultaneously.
Shouldn't the goblin ambush been one more to the right?
Thanks for watching! I don't think so-the rules say, "on your map sheet, starting in the corner indicated by the ambush card, and proceeding along the edge of the map in the direction indicated by the arrow, attempt to legally draw the monster shape without flipping or rotating it. If you cannot legally draw the monster shape anywhere along the edge of the map, move one space in from the edge and attempt it again, starting in the same corner and proceeding in the same direction." I think I did go in the wrong direction-it should have been a bit "higher" on my map-but placement along the edge was correct.
@@BeyondSolitaire ah, thanks!
Nice game but it should not be categorized as a "roll and write" since there is no dice. How about "draw and write"?
I totally get where you're coming from. I just tend to just include "flip and fills" in the roll and write category because they would fill the same type of "space" on game night or in a game collection. Quick, small, involve writing on a player sheet, only key difference is responding to cards as the randomized element instead of dice. Thanks for watching/commenting!
Let's just say it's water, as its easier to draw 😂 real life problems 😂
