Zman version is the one to get! Great camels and beautiful production. The new camels are light and feel cheap ;(. Owned both, but I kept my Zman version ;) You can actually hear the "click" of the cheap plastic in the video.
My God Lincoln, let Nicki fully answer a question. This happens all the time. It was not even 15 seconds before you interrupted her in the middle of a answer for a question you made her.
This game is simply unbeatable in terms of deep, engrossing, interactive gameplay - and it only takes a half hour with four players! Still, I think I prefer my Z-man games version.
Jeffra, I don't think we've ever played Through the Desert on GameNight. The copy we've had for years hasn't been pulled out in forever. We really do love the game though. Thanks for the note and for watching -Lincoln
@@boardgamegeek that’s so wild because I’ve never played it but definitely have watched it played. Only two game playing shows I have been watching were Tabletop with Wil Wheaton and when that finished I found Game Night! Soooo strange… Anyway, I’m glad you’ve played it now to share with us!
This game is exhausting. You have to think deeply all the time. The first time I played it, we all agreed: That is a great game. Now let us play something else.
i hear you. At first, you have a map with coloured lill camel, a short rulebook and you expect a light family game... But.. it's a reiner Knizia's game (phD in mathematics..) that won the "spiel des jarhes" in 1998. No wonder yuo will inexpected depth under your camel feet. But still, you can play it with kids or you can put some brain into it to play with adults. It also depends on your opponents.. Are they prone to block you or contest territories or are they willing to developp in their corner, just trying to do a better job than yourself... Different players different feelings, really (although the game ultimately push you to challenge other players).
Love your channel!! ❤ keep going!!
The America reference was brilliant. Kudos, Dave.
This game looks pretty neat. The capturing reminds me of Go.
i've the first german version for ages. To me, its a kind of funny initiation to go game

Now I think I know where the camel mechanic came from in Ankh.
Heads up, the bgg link to Through the Desert goes to Faraway instead!
Thanks for pointing that out! -Lincoln

Relationship Tightrope is a trick-taker, unlike Battle Line or ST. I have BL, and prefer it without the Tactics cards.
please play courtisans on your next video!
My question is do they turn off the video game cabinet every time they do a video or is it always off?
It's on when we play video games.

You played this before on Game Night? I really feel like I saw you all play it…
I didn't see it in the GameNight list. Maybe they did it on a live stream before?

@@jeffradiane It was just reprinted, so a great time to replay this great game.

That's the case with great, amazing games with depth. They are not for everybody and it's ok. There's always Munchkin and Uno to play.
multiplayer solitaire it is not

This game is amazing!
@@joelgodina5702 It is. As I said, we all agreed that it is a great game.
Wow too many colors to distinguish, they should've begun by saying which one they picked (i think dave's is off white)
Sorry, we just were used to playing it from the past.
