You’re the reason I backed this game in the first place. I’ve been looking forward to this new video!
My excitement for delivery of this game has defintely increased since watching this detailed play through video. There will be so many different strategies a player can take, it will be totally replayable, and all that unlockable content.....oh my!!!
A great overview and instruction. Thank you!
Thanks for another excellent play through. It was, as usual, very clear.
Great video, teach and overview!!! My game is delivering today and I can't wait to play it :)
Fantastic explanation. Thank you
The double-motif combo around the 50:00 mark to get the coins, and then immediately get the points using opponent's badges... that's the jam! :)
This video is so helpful. I just received it and taking it to a game day on Friday, so thank you! Very excited to play.
I hope you enjoy it :)
Thanks so much for the walkthrough! Really interesting the different ways to unlock the content! I don't know which I want to choose, hmmm!
You are the best, Jon ;).
I played a development copy of this game a few years ago with the designer, Carl Van Ostrand. The game has changed a bit since then. I’m really looking forward to delivery, hopefully by late March!
Thanks a lot! This is super useful. I just got my copy a week ago and can't wait to play 😊
Didn’t know Hobbiton had a name change.
nice video.
what about the entertainer expansion?
should we get it? does it have a wodden minis like the base game?
Sorry, I don't have opinions about the game to share since I haven't actually played it all the way through.
36:33 Has boasting changed then? It was originally just the top card in each creature pile that got discarded!
Yeah, this action was changed during later development of the game.
@@JonGetsGames I’m remembering just how many creature cards my opponent had when we played and am thankful the old rule was in place! Thanks for the reply
59:41 I guess you meant per round (while singing) not per game?
How many years has it been since Kickstarter?)
2 and a half
Why the new video? I'm just curious!
Hi! Drake from Final Frontier Games here. The answer here is twofold: 1. We updated the rules since the last video. Not a lot, and nothing huge, but enough small tweaks that we felt a new video was warranted to prevent possible confusion. 2. The components you see in the video will better resemble what players have, as opposed to the prototype copy components.
Is there still a need to read the rulebook after this?
This was great but I still have to read the rules or I'm gonna go nuts. 😂
Rules question: at the beginning of the game, before you have removed any badges, does the heart with a melody symbol inside it to the left of the badges mean that you always have at least one melody before you gain any other melody from any other means (cards, removed badges, etc) ?
Oh never mind. I just saw the point in the video that clarifies this. Those melody tokens are specifically about how much challenging bards must spend to successfully challenge.
Huh, deja vu, I can vaguely remember the video you made on the prototype. I think I remember saying then that this game didn't really feel like the musical theme was anything more than a theme - it's not a game about making music, just a game with a musical dressing. And that I thought that was pretty disappointing. Unfortunately I must stand by that observation. I found myself mostly feeling that disappointment and it ruined any good impression I might have otherwise had of this game.
I'm not here to change your opinion on things, but as the lead developer, I want to offer some insight into where the theme is.
It's everywhere. The Tempo wheel of the song, the idea of composing temporary tableaus as songs (which can be shorter or longer depending on your Tempo), the idea of lyrics and melody being ephemeral and unable to be saved between rounds, the idea of soothing the attacking creatures and boasting about it instead of killing them, the idea of gaining new fans after performing shows, the idea of exploring to hear and tell legends, your song only affecting the area directly around you (places that can hear you). Additionally, this isn't a game about "music" it's a game about Bards. Musical motifs and ideas are interwoven at every single mechanism. If it were just set dressing, it would be easy to convert the theme to something else, but I think that if you try to re-theme it, you will run into issues where things are no longer cohesive (as they are with this theme.). We also specifically wanted to avoid musical theory, because if you don't know more about musical composition, a lot of the stuff would just mean nothing to you.
So woven into every single mechanism was a strong pull towards the theme. But we also tried to make playing the game have a certain "tempo" and "beat" to it. In the same way Donkey Kong games aren't rhythm games, but they naturally have rhythm to the way they are played. Not every turn is playing a song, by necessity you have to spend time composing, and deciding if you want a short and sweet song, or something more substantial. So we approached the theme from the art, the feel of play, and every single mechanism. This was a Bard game long before it was a deckbuilder, and before any of the current mechanisms existed in this form.
@@drakevillareal7772 I am by no means a musical expert...quite the opposite actually, so perhaps I am a poor judge of how well theme is implemented here, but to me, its seems pretty well done. The games i find most thematic tend to be games in which the theme is something that I am well versed in or something i am drawn to, such as SF / Fantasy / Farming (yes...i enjoy those...). Regardless, the play is interesting with kind of a engine building deck builder, and I would be happy to play it.
Along that line of thought, is this going to hit retail in the USA?
There should be a few available in retail along with those getting delivered to backers soon. :)
@@drakevillareal7772 Thanks so much for that! I'm a themer and love all you've integrated to the theme. You can really feel it!
