As one of the co-designers of this game - Im totally geeking out watching you each enjoy the game. Also, as a Canadian I respect the hockey word "Deeking" was used.
Great game! It's elegant/minimalist in its layout, but there's lots of room for subtleties. It reminds me of "bridge night," where people can sit around and chat about whatever outwardly with their friends, but the whole time they are planning moves/tricks ahead. A lot of games are so bogged down with a frakton of counters, cards, exceptions, and modifiers that everyone has to spend the whole time just trying to keep the rules straight. It's good to see one that has a classic appeal like Go or chess... a couple minutes to learn, a lifetime to master :)
I literally watched this to understand how to play. I feel like even though they got it dreadfully wrong, I learned what I needed to learn because of the comments. The one thing I was confused about was if I had to play my next die off my last die. Thats how we were ok playing and we got trapped very early on. But I think the rules say you can only play orthogonally or diagonally of you last played dice. As in plural. So you can play off the entire group of dice. Which makes it much easier to play.
Hate to add to the rules flubs, but around 31:30, Sandeep uses two tools in one turn, which isn't allowed, you can only use one per turn. In all fairness, though, easy one to make, the others should've called him on it :P Also, Becca says he could place his green down then remove it later as an illegal positioning, but that's not allowed either.
Okay, I might sound silly asking this. But! If certain cards allow a player to break a rule (ignoring number/ shade) and someone points it out later in the game. And that player forgets he used the card and takes off the dice he’s losing points when he shouldn’t. I know you should keep track of how many token you have/used. But wouldn’t this get confusing?
I was thinking about how its no Tabletop, but I could get used to it. Then she said orthogonally, a word I have been looking for. I think I'll like this show.
Love the show and you guys really showed how game is played out but 2 big rules were neglected. You guys can’t have the same color dice AND same number dice touching each other orthogonally.
You reckon you guys could get Full Moon Jacket? Saw some folks playing it at an event yesterday and they wouldn't stop until the place closed so i never got a go.
You are correct...this was an epic fail at the very beginning when she was explaining the game rules before game play. She pointed out that no color could be "orthogonally" (above, below or side by side) touching the same color but she failed to mention the die of a same number also couldn't touch orthogonally. Then several played number to number. I also feel it would have been better if they did some close up overhead shots to show the game-boards as the game play progressed. I just ordered game and am waiting for it to arrive so I'm watching several videos to get familiar with it. I so wish Will and Anna Wheaton would put this game on Table Top!!
Before you go ahead a film something like this, you would probably want to have someone experienced with the rules show at least one person how to play. There were tons of illegally placed dice.

This is a great game and one I've enjoyed playing. But as a game being filmed this needs an occasional overhead shot of players boards, as viewers haven't really got a clue what's happening on each board. Great series though, thanks for making them.
I feel like the "asides" portion of this show is missing. Everyone is comparing it to Tabletop and I think that a LOT of the humor in that show is from the individual interview portions that play throughout. Excluding that piece of the puzzle seems like a missed opportunity.

i m french sorry for my English, Balancing problem Bravo, excellent video, I have a problem balancing in the lens with this game, ex: 2 points per pair of 1 and 2, imagine that I can do 3 pairs in my table or 6 points, if during the game I simply took a 6 in the color of my objecti F and well it also makes 6 points!!!!, on one side we need 6 dice to make 6 points of the other 1!!!!! I love this game but the, I think it was not enough test to let it pass!!

She is some worthy Wil Wheaton game hosting competitor. especially the complex games she previews are not as easy to capture in such a video. Ok Wil does sometimes preview more complex games, too... but she definitely plays some interesting stuff guys.
I miss when geek & sundry was good , you had TableTop and a lot of funny stuff , now we have Game the Game , I loved tabletop , infact when Will and Felicia were here it was a hell of a lot more popular but now they get super low views , geek and sundry used to be Geek & sundry! It was a happier time when Will and Felicia was there...
So, going to double-down on the rules mistake from the first video, are you? By the end of the episode, there were 13 incorrectly placed dice across your boards.
if the rules say they actually have to be caught with the dice in the right place. It could be argued that since they weren't caught they are not against the rules. A few friends of mine and I enjoyed games like these for quite a while because trying to pull one over on each other and getting away with it becomes just as much part of the game as the basic rules where we end up playing two games in one. The game as written and the game of deception by managing not to be caught with an incorrect play that's only incorrect when caught.
Basically, the shitty company that bought G&S wanted to move Tabletop to a streaming service behind a pay wall, Wheaton didn't want to so they stopped production. If you were wondering why G&S is a wasteland now, that's why. Becca is really likeable and I wish her the best but this show is extremely boring compared to Tabletop. To be brutally honest, she's all pep and no personality.

Hey Daryl, do you want to tell them they are playing the game wrong?
They are placing identical values next to each other. There were 13 incorrectly placed dice across their boards.
Oh congrats man, the game is great!

Very nice game design.
Sandeep is so good at picking friendly fights on camera. MVP
Heart Becca.

Vork and Zaboo?
Fine I'll watch.
Honestly same..Also the editor of this show is pretty cool. :)
this playthrough would have definitely benefited from a split screen with an overhead cam for the whole game.
Becca clearly loves playing board games so much! A joy to watch

I want a Jeff Lewis pop up on all TH-cam videos whenever something needs explaining.
I was thinking about how its no Tabletop, but I could get used to it. Then she said orthogonally, a word I have been looking for. I think I'll like this show.
Becca really is an amazing host.. Simply my opinion..
oh my god last turn 6 with 6, 1 with 1 , 5 with 5 , 3 players !!! all people forget the rules !!
Love the show and you guys really showed how game is played out but 2 big rules were neglected. You guys can’t have the same color dice AND same number dice touching each other orthogonally.
They also added sets of 3/4's for example instead of sets of 3's and sets of 4's. 3+4 =0 points. 3+3 and 4+4 = 4 points for 2 sets.
Wow, I love this game, and This show in general. Keep doing the great content and I will forever be a viewer.
anytime guild members are here it's so extra fun.
Jeff's voice is just so soothing, if he did audio-books I would definitely fall right asleep...
"Whatever you're doing, keep on doing it!" Ah, I see you too are a supervisor.
I can't give this comment enough thumbs up
Great tight game by everyone!
The graphics work was great!
You reckon you guys could get Full Moon Jacket? Saw some folks playing it at an event yesterday and they wouldn't stop until the place closed so i never got a go.
Playing with the graphic at the start was funny.
I thought 2 number couldn't be next to one another. The example in the beginning had two 6 next to on another. As well as 2's. 3:34

Bonus points for the card reveals
Is this Table Top with The Guild?
Really wish Tabletop would cover this.
Does Becca know she can’t use the same shade and not just the same color next to each other. Her blue 2 next to her red 2 in round 7 I think.
omg how did no one see the many misplaced dice on the game boards?
Nice video! Just discoreved this and youre doing a good job.
I think a dice tray would be very usefull for this game.
Fun group - fun game :) Jeff was hilarious :) Also loved the 'Jeff' movie posters :) Great episode :)
What is the technical name for Tony the Graphics Guy's job? It seems fun!
great work tony!!!
Where’s Will Wheaton??? 😞
Headphone warning at 24:42 ;-;
Becca Scott, the hardest working woman in the board games business!
Trying real hard to be hot. Partially succeeding.
partially? someone has some unrealistically high standards.
No shit. She's no Felicia Day, but she's a very acceptable substitute.
Not that Felicia Day isn't attractive but I think she's far less attractive than Becca to be honest, especially with that killer overbite.
Before you go ahead a film something like this, you would probably want to have someone experienced with the rules show at least one person how to play. There were tons of illegally placed dice.
This is why God created "Watch It Played" and Rodney Smith.
How dare you. Didn't you read that she's "actually a gamer?"

Becca Scott = Breathtaking
Love the guys! You let's are cool too.
jeff 1-1, rebecca 1-1, sandepp 6-6 on his final board ! arf
Were is tabletop?
TableTop is dead; get over it. I miss it too, but it's the truth.
Maaaaaaan
They missed the adjacent number rule, but since everyone ignored it, it's fine.
around 47:00 sandeep has 4 threes! he should get 8points there!!!
16:28 Heavy breathing
That's right, play it your way 😉🙃 it's a fun game
Jeff was great! :D
I like female Will Wheaton. She is super cute.
0:55: The moment I knew I had to subscribe to this channel, "Discard the other."
The Jeff show! I would get behind that 153 percent!
The rules for this game aren’t complex. Too bad they aren’t playing correctly.
You are correct...this was an epic fail at the very beginning when she was explaining the game rules before game play.

*The moment I noticed Sandeep has two yellows next to each other*
i m french sorry for my English, Balancing problem
Bravo, excellent video, I have a problem balancing in the lens with this game, ex: 2 points per pair of 1 and 2, imagine that I can do 3 pairs in my table or 6 points, if during the game I simply took a 6 in the color of my objecti F and well it also makes 6 points!!!!, on one side we need 6 dice to make 6 points of the other 1!!!!! I love this game but the, I think it was not enough test to let it pass!!
and i like your "oops"
I think they forgot you can’t put dice with the same number next to each other 😕

Becca is cool as a host. But Tabletop is a better show in every single way.
Why is Jeff Lewis the only Guild member to not have a Wikipedia page?
She's hot
Bring back GMTIPS!!!!
I came here for Vork! And because I bought the game...
She is some worthy Wil Wheaton game hosting competitor. especially the complex games she previews are not as easy to capture in such a video.
Ok Wil does sometimes preview more complex games, too... but she definitely plays some interesting stuff guys.
And with that i started to root for Sandeep
I miss when geek & sundry was good , you had TableTop and a lot of funny stuff , now we have Game the Game , I loved tabletop , infact when Will and Felicia were here it was a hell of a lot more popular but now they get super low views , geek and sundry used to be Geek & sundry! It was a happier time when Will and Felicia was there...
One of his kids is. Being rises by Jeff ?
So, going to double-down on the rules mistake from the first video, are you? By the end of the episode, there were 13 incorrectly placed dice across your boards.
You sound like a real joy.
Usually I am. Sagrada is a great game with two pages of rules. Two pages!
Yeah, you can't have the same number touching & you can't have the same color touching. Diagonally is OK, though.
Wanting to play board games correctly makes him not a joy? I feel like I would rather play with someone who's playing by the rules.
if the rules say they actually have to be caught with the dice in the right place. It could be argued that since they weren't caught they are not against the rules. A few friends of mine and I enjoyed games like these for quite a while because trying to pull one over on each other and getting away with it becomes just as much part of the game as the basic rules where we end up playing two games in one. The game as written and the game of deception by managing not to be caught with an incorrect play that's only incorrect when caught.
Anyone else hear "Support your minions?"
I miss Will
I have to move to NY to get closer to Becca :o OMG she is so beautiful!
am i the only one who thinks he looks like nic cage?
All you people cheated and didnt even realize watch or read the rules again NO SAME NUMBERS SIDE BY SIDE up and down is ok BUT NOT SIDE TO SIDE
Definetly not to watch if you want to learn this game here, but they have fun playing this.
And STOP LOOKING AT THE PROMPT.... What is this, a cheap commercial?
So many mistakes......But the game is Beautiful.
This seems alot like Tabletop except less enjoyable. Did Tabletop get cancelled or something?
Basically, the shitty company that bought G&S wanted to move Tabletop to a streaming service behind a pay wall, Wheaton didn't want to so they stopped production. If you were wondering why G&S is a wasteland now, that's why. Becca is really likeable and I wish her the best but this show is extremely boring compared to Tabletop. To be brutally honest, she's all pep and no personality.
So many rule mistakes even though they talked about the rules again with each other.....
I don’t want to be a rules nazi, but there were A LOT of mistakes in your game.
Bring will back. He was way more entertaining to watch.
what was your favorite Will video. Want to check him out.
Becca Scott is a way better host of tabletop than Wheaton.
Also Becca keeps making mistakes in like all the games she plays.
Still no tabletop? I'm out...
