I have the original german version of this game. Every so often I encounter the right mix of people and pull this one out. It ALWAYS pulls everyone in and gets people shouting and laughing.
Before there was an English edition colloquially known as "the leaky lifeboat game". Intrige is something like this. It's also part of a group of racing games in which players can mess up others, like Karawane and Igel Aergern. The difference here is that there's very little randomness.
@@BoardGems Great! To me, it's more of a gem than this is. Best with 4 or more. I can get this to the table very easily. All in the group love it. The many variants -- doping is a favorite -- help replayability.
I like very much the background music you use for the rules explanation in your videos. It gives me a very relaxing retro video game feeling. Could you post a link or name to access that track? Thanks for making this channel.
Thanks! I'm afraid it's not available anywhere - it was composed by my son, and he has yet to share his work with the world! I will share your compliment with him, to give him encouragement. :)
How you doing? I really like your channel 😄. I wanted to ask if you think this is a game for a 9, almost 10 year old. Because of the cunning aspect of the game. I hope you can help me out.
Rules-wise, absolutely. But it does require a bit of maturity to be able to handle other players voting you to drown! In my opinion a 10yo should be fine, but of course it depends on the particular 10yo. Hope that helps a little!
There's two games I know of named Beowulf. One is just "Beowulf", the other is "Beowulf: The Movie: Board Game". I have both and have played neither! But the latter, which is on my shelf, is a sequel to Kingdoms, which I love and did a video on. (I tossed the insert and keep a spare copy of Kingdoms inside its box, so there's two games in there!)
Thank's, the art on german box is greater in my opinion, i'm surprised that's not your favorite, or maybe you don't have it... see you

I have Igel Ärgern! Only played it once a looooooooong time ago. I wonder if it stands up today. Thoughts?

curious if you'll do Beowulf sometime, recently got that at a thrift store.
