This was surprisingly close considering some major rules errors that made it nightmare-hard for the survivors. (It should have been kind of clear that locking down 4/5 spaces in turn1 can't be the game's intent) Well played! Spoiler for last round It was not a save win. Sullivan could have drawn a survivor card that cancels the monster. Unfortunately they stopped mid-phase :(
I think these are my top cast choices. Like if you asked me to design an episode. Tilly's utterly fantastic, whatever you put her in, and cares about the game enough for it to be "seriously fun". She has such a sharp wit and humour about her. I truly appreciate how deeply Ken thinks about every game's rules and win conditions yet still wears his learning lightly and has a laugh. And of course, there's a reason the other 3 are core members - but I think Sully might be my spirit animal.
Pretty sure Laurie's using the Virus power incorrectly. It should only target two adjacent spaces, not place the Artemia token down and then target two spaces adjacent to it.
I came to the comments specifically because I was thinking "let's see how Laurie misread the rules to help him today". Every single time he's the monster the rules are stacked towards him. He interpret rules as "how can it help me the most".
@@buffoonery4649 I feel pretty vindicated about first time games - We ALWAYS get something wrong, no matter how many times the rules were read. Round two is always better, and by game 4, almost everything is sorted. If a game can withstand 4 rounds of playing and is still fun, it's worth playing more.
@@littlenikke Very true, especially if the rules have strange wording or are slightly ambiguous. I honestly don't mind them messing up the rules most the time as I watch for THEM, not for the game they are playing. That being said, I think it would be a good idea to have the players check the rule book individually if they are confused about something - rather than having to rely on just one person to remember all the details. It's no surprise Laurie gets stuff wrong sometimes, he has played hundreds of games lol.
Dom needs that super flashlight from that one meme tweet where the uber eats couldn't find the place, got a "look at the sky" from the customer, and it was a super bright flashlight, and he texted back "I SEE IT!!" 😂
Me at the beginning of the episode: well that seems needlessly complicated Me after the episode: struggling to not instantly order this game, because it's freaking awesome
MVP Ken! I loved the lair/other psychology plays I do have to also comment on adjacency rules. You put the token between two spaces next to each other (horizontally or vertically), and those are the ones targeted by the effect
im so suprised you're actually playing the game i've played myself :D love this game) upd: a few mistakes were made as others pointed out too: - misuse of virus(Tilly was right! -_-), - players running out of will not regaining their cards(they should get all their cards back, they've suffered enough -_-)
What? Believing that everyone should be paid a minimum wage that is high enough to live a decent life? Or tipping where you believe that you can pay "servants" to treat you better than poorer customers? I think you should report to Communopoly for re-education immediately!
That intro reminded me of sully singing “one is the loneliest number” after being left alone in the town square in that one botc episode and now I must watch that video again lol
have you heard of Black Mold? it’s a co-op game (as cooperative as you want to be though) about escaping a mold infested prison and has interesting mechanics like having to hold your breath as you work out a puzzle or you could eat your friends face off, your choice really
this kind of game benefits from early domination. takes a few games to sort thing out, because it's actually pretty well balanced. I feel pretty good that we almost always get thing's wrong the first times, even on 'basic' games. Switch teams, share rules... the competition is really fun!
Yes, they named the game "one more vest" - the next week game - that is simply looks like the same way that he removes so many vests during the one-liner song "one more time"😄
i knew there was a reason I liked Dom... and within the 1st 10 minutes I found that reason.. the instructions are not their for my benefit but the drivers lol
I'm so glad my auto adblocker doesn't recognise NRB's promos as adverts. I don't know if thats a testament to how natural the team makes the adverts or what, but I love it
That is perfectly accurate that we should not have to pay service workers their living wage. We should not be expected to tip. However, that also doesn't mean order and don't tip. That is exploiting cheap labor. Either you handle take away yourself, or you don't order from them. This comment is not directed towards Dom, this comment is directed towards the hundreds of people I personally delivered to who say they don't tip and close the door in my face.
the opening clips are always a nice touch, but the subtitles added are in a weird spot (a little too down low). they get covered up by the pop up from when you hover over the video. i think it would be worth it to move them up a little so they dont get covered up!
I was wondering if you could play wingspan on a "Let's Play...", I've been having troubles with figuring out how to play and seeing you guys play it would be amazing
Pretty sure the river is better artifact, I think it should be that the second is discarded tbh. Looking at this it just confirms that your next turn will be safe AND useful.
Man the translation of the text on these cards is pretty rough. "The place's power of your choice is ineffective?" I get what that's going for, but jeez.
I agree , the only real benefit they offer is location spoofing which you can get from free software , having the benefit of not holding your card information when they inevitably get hacked
I agree, but I also think that if you are going to buy something - especially something you are buying in an attempt to keep yourself safe, you should do your own research on it first. VPNs like this are useful for certain situations in regards to safety, but the average person really doesn't need one. Also if you don't like sponsorships you can get sponsorship blocker! :D
Awesome video! It would be even more awesome if Dom finally released my family from his cell, but regardless, funny video guys!
They know what they did.
One can only dream of being locked in Dom's cell!
Don't worry we're all fine down here. We even get to share a chicken bone on the weekend! Thankyou master Dom
@@behindthehideaway2740 POV: This commenter's family sharing The Remains
Only when they admit what they did
Laurie understood the Virus wrong. It says "adjacent" and "both", You have to put it between two cards like Tilly said.
Yep, this is the correct way to play. Justice for Tilly!
Yep only 2, no L shapes allowed.
I was almost yelling out loud at that xD
Correct. Tilly-bob winny-bob.
Indeed, women shouldn't be ignored.@@wolfbookyr4658

Spoiler for last round

Tilly in the second game is having the same luck as Jon gracey in citadels.

I want the hybrid shark to continue eating everone one by one lol. Keep this bit alive!!
Everyone needs to dress as the hybrid shark and play Cosmic Encounter.
Hehe, bit
I see Dom has learned masking from Robert Grove's Anything You Can Act, I Can Act Louder.
I could see Tilly as a femme fatale in a film noire setting in a darkened living room with a whiskey a smoking gun and a body on the floor.
@@miclowgunman1987Netflix show?
Pretty sure Laurie's using the Virus power incorrectly. It should only target two adjacent spaces, not place the Artemia token down and then target two spaces adjacent to it.
Yes, it should essentially be placed in-between two cards, where the gap is. Not on-top of another card. Meaning you can't create an L shape.
I came to the comments specifically because I was thinking "let's see how Laurie misread the rules to help him today". Every single time he's the monster the rules are stacked towards him. He interpret rules as "how can it help me the most".
@@TalesNTGiven Sully also benefited from his interpretation, it's fair.

Any video where Dom and Sully are playing off each other is a great time.

It really, really is, I recommend it to everyone

Dom actually looks more intimidating as Stalin than as a shark
It always feels like a treat when theres more than one round played
im so suprised you're actually playing the game i've played myself :D love this game)
upd: a few mistakes were made as others pointed out too:
- misuse of virus(Tilly was right! -_-),
- players running out of will not regaining their cards(they should get all their cards back, they've suffered enough -_-)
In the second game, Tilly was really giving off Jon Gracey vibes (from that episode where he kept getting assassinated).
The opening clips of these shows are always brilliant.
The editor has good taste. Maybe they'll let them see the sun.
No tipping! This is exactly the type of upper class attitude I would expect from Squire Dominic Allen the cheese merchant!
What? Believing that everyone should be paid a minimum wage that is high enough to live a decent life? Or tipping where you believe that you can pay "servants" to treat you better than poorer customers? I think you should report to Communopoly for re-education immediately!
@@dominicallen541stopping tipping doesn't immediately raise the wage of the person who lives off tips, report to communopoly for re-education
Love your content! I was living in Waterloo this summer for work and visited Draughts on Leake Street because of your channel, had a great time!
WOOO ITS THE BEST TIME OF THE WEEK!!! ITS BOARD GAME CLUB!!!!
That intro reminded me of sully singing “one is the loneliest number” after being left alone in the town square in that one botc episode and now I must watch that video again lol
I just watched that video and totally agree!
Do you remember which one?🙏
@@m.c24601 I'll have a look.
@@m.c24601 It was the episode called 'Mistakes Were Made'.
Enjoy.
OMG I love Ken's sweater so much
Sullivan's got the Dream speedrun music in his left ear and Tilly's thoughts in his right one.
Sully shoulda just said "To the Americans that are gonna complain, we pay employees for their work."
love that they played this game, its my groups go to pub game. Although we've always played the rover card as a random pick
"Not Alone" is one of the best games I owned and have played. Love it!
have you heard of Black Mold? it’s a co-op game (as cooperative as you want to be though) about escaping a mold infested prison and has interesting mechanics like having to hold your breath as you work out a puzzle
or you could eat your friends face off, your choice really

Round two and Harry Peeps is running low on sanity points again 🙈❤
The chemistry that you guys have is what makes you great. 👍
11:27 He played the virus card incorrectly. It should be placed between 2 places; and then, only 2 are unusable, not 3.
Poor Tilly was just getting absolutely bollocked this episode
Loved that Viggo from Got Talent - I did NOT know they made a game on him :) "ONE MORE TIME" Song that has only these words in it - Lovely Stuff!
Yes, they named the game "one more vest" - the next week game - that is simply looks like the same way that he removes so many vests during the one-liner song "one more time"😄
Good job getting sponsored guys. Ya deserve it, great content for 3 years now
As soon as run 2 started i was like “oh please let us have a shark song reprise?” Lol
Thank you, Sully, for looking out for us poor Yanks!
Location nr 9 (totally didn't hear that in my head to the tune of "love potion nr 9" 😂) gave me such a Subnautica feel.
Need a separate series of Sully and Dom’s shark tales…
Hell yeah. I love this game. It got me through Covid with my friends. We played absolute hours of this game on BGA.
i knew there was a reason I liked Dom... and within the 1st 10 minutes I found that reason.. the instructions are not their for my benefit but the drivers lol
At this point between NRB and Jay Foreman, I would probably pay for a streaming service that’s just Surfshark adverts
Don’t forget Tomska in that list
I don't know why. But I feel like I'm not alone.
One of the best one vs. many games on the market today!
This video is amazing! Can't wait to gather with friends again. Not Alone is seriously awesome!
LAURIE'S SCREAMS I CANT 😂😂
Great video, have really enjoyed it! Have not heard of this game prior to this video and have since watching ordered the game and its two expansions
Never seen Tilly crushed this bad. Brutal 😮
I totally agree on the tipping point for most jobs except bartenders they should get tips 9:58
Well played all, I appreciate Sullivan the monster
"I mostly just point with all the tentacles, and say it louder... CHIPS!"
Me going for a snack run at a rundown gas station at 3 am be like:
Tilly in this game reminds me of Jon from Citadels 😂
This was good, id love another episode of this game
Finally had time to catch up, this was such a good one!!
"Put it on the screen!" Haha
I have a feeling Dom was hungry during this episode.
Not Alone is one of my favorite games!!! Let's go!!!
Actually the "Flashback" card needs you to put the Artemia token in between 2 adjacent cards to target both. Not on a single card plus 2 extra ^u^
I was so sure that the assimilation track progressed for every player I'd catch...
Get under that table swept and cleaned...😵💫🤣
45:36 honestly would have been funny if the alien forfeited and was like *sorry*😢
CHIPS!
TILLLYYYY finally
I for one welcome our Laurie and Sully overlords
I really enjoyed this one!
Getting screwed over by messed up rules the first two turns? I felt so bad for Tilly
I'm so glad my auto adblocker doesn't recognise NRB's promos as adverts. I don't know if thats a testament to how natural the team makes the adverts or what, but I love it
Mine does, even the little 5 second throwback, was kinda sad that part got skipped - had to rewatch it lol.

I feel like you should be able to Play that Game alone
Dom
Cheeky breeky Escape from Colditz 💯🥵😏😫
Fantastic as always thank you
Infinite Fun, as always! :)
Have you got any plans for may 4th as I thought a game of outer rim would be ideal or even sobac
It's a deliverover!
I got a nord vpn ad in this surfshark vpn sponsored video…
Tilly wins!!!
what song are Tilly and Sully singing? (starting at 36:20)
I think it’s just an alien themed version of I’m Just Ken
I really really wish we didn't have to tip either =3= just pay the freaking restaurant people better!
I suggest game Almost Innocent. Might need overhead cam though.
Anyone else think Sully and Dom sound exactly the same at times?
Tilly...Tilly...ahh...
Can you guys play ruins of arnok?
I was just thinking about this game
got the feeling this video is sponsored
Awesome video! It would be even more awesome if Dom would tip
I was wondering if you could play wingspan on a "Let's Play...", I've been having troubles with figuring out how to play and seeing you guys play it would be amazing
anyone knows where are the rules from the beginning of the videos come from. they’re are so non-sense yet funny😂
Tilly wins, and Tilly loses.
Pretty sure the river is better artifact, I think it should be that the second is discarded tbh. Looking at this it just confirms that your next turn will be safe AND useful.
tater tots are the best potato product.
I'm confused, it says there is a paid promotion in this video but I can't spot it.
The Surf-shark ad
Silly question, who in the intro is Tilly supposed to be? She's missing, I think 😢
0:38 she's got her headband on
Ahh, figured it was Holly. I don't know why. Glad to see she has her rightful spot ^^
Ey up from the North :D
Man the translation of the text on these cards is pretty rough. "The place's power of your choice is ineffective?" I get what that's going for, but jeez.
