Wanted to take a moment to say thanks for the presentation you bring to these Rodney. The "But to that I say, ignore your friends, talking like a pirate is fun!" and embracing the pirate voice was amazing!
I appreciate the kind words - thanks Kevin :)
That box flip though.
Subtitle for this episode: in which our hero, Rodney, learns about the mysterious force known as "gravity"
Received the game earlier today. You know where I'm heading when I get a new game; straight to Watch it Played channel. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much - I hope you have a fantastic time playing!
Rodney you are always the best of the best when it comes to teaching. Such great enthusiasm, humor, and expertise on constant display. Kudos!!
Thanks so much for the kind words Mark :)
I just wanted to say that this is possibly the top two plaid Hat games ever, and is my favorite Pirate game. It ranks up there with some of my favorite story games including 7th continent, near and far, and time stories. People who enjoyed aftermath or stuffed fables will enjoy this. It is very rules light compared to all I have mentioned here, and not complex, which is an impressive balance, with a great flow of rounds and turns. The app is integrated quite well. Some of the voice acting is a little over-the-top, but if you are in a fun group, taking turns reading the entries and putting your own flavor on it is amazing.
The solo and two-player variants work extraordinarily well and are well considered by the designer. Highly recommend this game. Definitely top 10 games of 2020. Buy it.
So glad to hear the 2 player version works well too. That was releasing as I was working on this, so hadn't tried it yet, but plan to!
Plaid hat does not know when it will be released retail. I’m in Canada so ordering from plaid hat in US is not going to happen as the total is $150 CAD after $42 Us shipping. Insane. Well, look forward to seeing it at Christmas.
The current tentative retail release date is June 19. The Covid situation could end up setting that back even further, of course. But if you already think the global pandemic is somehow Plaid Hat's fault, I doubt anything is really going to matter to you.
@@shatnershairpiece Shatner! I too am in Canada, Winnipeg to be exact, and I just picked this game up yesterday. I don't know when it released here in Canada, but if you don't have it already, you should be able to get it now! Can't wait to play it tonight after work!
Plaid Hat is one of my favorite companies to be sure! I've got Dead of Winter and all of the expansions (which I ABSOLUTELY love), Gen 7 I just picked up last month and now just yesterday this game, Forgotten Waters. I think they are just top drawer, man!
The fabled Canadian Pirate, Plaid Leg Smithy!
Thanks Rodney, for yet another great video! Your ability to explain rules with such ease and elegance never ceases to amaze me! You truly put us amateurs to shame 😂
You're very kind - and no shame in your teaching game, it all takes practice, and I do have the support of a script and the opportunity to do re-takes :)
The box flip, so cool, so smooth, one smooooth operator.
Glad you enjoyed that little bit of flare :)
This one just arrived in the mail yesterday! Planning to play tonight. Thanks for the great video!
You're very welcome - have a great time playing!
Great video as always Rodney. Looking forward to playing this with friends next weekend and your teaching always makes it easier to explain
Have a great time!
Another fantabulous video, sir! See? So great and informative it was, that I created a word, "fantabulous". Seriously though, whenever I get a game or am looking for a game, I always check to see if you have a video on it first. Thank you for doing these videos, as I have leaned how to play quite a few of my games by watching your videos first. Much appreciated! I just picked this game up yesterday and am sitting here at work watching your vid... and now I can't wait to get home to play!
Thanks so much for the kind comment Cory - I hope you have a fantastic time playing!
Uh....Since I happen to be a pirate in my part time job, this is DEFINITELY going into the collection!!!!!!!
Thanks so much, Rodney. Another amazingly helpful video. Playing this for the first time with two friends later today.
I hope you all have a fantastic time!
Had preordered this one and was patiently waiting for Rodney to do a video for it.
10/10 would watch again.
Glad you enjoyed Sam!
Best game plaid hat has ever made. And it has Pirates too!! ARRRRR
Glad you liked this one!
7:05 LOL! This game seems right up my alley. I haven't been this excited about a game in a long time.
I hope you enjoy some pirating adventures soon!
Looks very cool. Def going to have to give this a go. Love the theme.
Hope you enjoy it!
Already played this and love it. Great with full compliment of pirates. The only thing that wasn't clear was the hunger level, SO GLAD you covered it. I couldn't find it. :(
Glad that helped (and glad you've been enjoying!)
Just want to say that this is a brilliant video! Thanks a lot!
Really glad you enjoyed it Ed, thank you!
Rodney, I realize that 85% of my comments are requests for you to deviate from your usual formula... But September 19th is International Talk like a Pirate day, and I would LOVE for you to upload a video where you maintain pirate voice throughout. Maybe Libertalia, or Cartagena? I don't care what. I just wanna see you commit to the voice for a whole video
My vote is (as mentioned in another comment) with a gameplay video for this one!
This game is amazing.
Great explanation! Thank you so much for the video!
So glad you liked it!
Thank you for this amazing video, Rodney.
Thanks for the kind words and very generous support. I really appreciate that - have a great time playing!
Omg I so want this game now. You make it sound so good 👍 . Thanks
I'm glad you enjoyed what you saw Christopher!
Thankyou, this video was very helpful. Thanks again mate.
I hope you get to enjoy some high seas adventuring!
Your how to plays are the best. Thanks
Very kind of you to say Seth.
Amazing video! I'm eager to pick this one up for me and the crew, arrr!
Well said matey!
I have watched more than 10 of your tutorial videos, but for some reason only this one doesn't have subtitles. English is not my mother language, so I had to try very hard to fully understand this video. However, it's still totally worth it for a great video tutorial like this.
TH-cam sometimes fails to create the auto-subtitles, that must have happened here.
Thanks for another great how to play!
Thanks Meeple Life :)
This is fantastic and super helpful
Thank you!
Rodney, you do such a great job. So professionally polished ... thank you. By the way, is there any chance that Luke might join you again for a game or two? I loved watching the two of you, but that seems ages ago. Anyway, happy holidays to a great gamer guy!
Hey, nice to hear from you SpudK! Glad you enjoyed the video. The challenge with game plays is scheduling with other people. It was easier when they were younger and had less going on :)
Thank you for teaching me the game!
Have a great time playing Ignacy :)
Love the vid, thanks rodney
Thanks Doc - have fun playing!
I was very glad to hear the most important rule to this game. Ignore your friends, talk like a pirate. Truly a game for the ages haha
Ha, indeed!
Thank you, Rodney, yoou're the best.
Very glad you enjoyed!
dood you rock! Game looks great :D
Glad you enjoyed!
Wow! I love Plaid Hat Games and I can't wait to sink into this one.
Try not to sink!
@@WatchItPlayed Yes! I knew I could get a funny out of that. Haha
got my copy yesterday straight from plaid hat themselves!
Have a great time playing!
Rodney, you're the man.
Glad you enjoyed!
I hope there's a gameplay video of this published on the 19th of September so Rodney's friends have no excuse to tell him to stop talking like a pirate!
2/5/22 finally a year after getting the game, we are going with this over Terra Mystica. I think my wife will appreciate that it is cooperative. After trying to learn Anno 1800, a relatively self guided, app driven game might be just the ticket… Thanks Rodney my friend. Maybe next weekend, we can get Terra Mystica, and all the other shelveS of shame, which are starting to exceed the played shelves… ugh.
Enjoy life on the high seas!
so doesn't that make it a 1-7 player? :) Thanks for making the tutorials!!!
I know - it's a little funny, right? The box says 3-7, and that was the original design player count, but you actually can play it 1-2.
Some top notch pirate vocals there Rodney...
Ha! Thank you :)
You're literally the best teacher! Could you please explain Reef or Azul? I got both of them for Christmas but I can't seem to figure out how they work.
Thanks for the interest. I talk a bit about that here: th-cam.com/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/w-d-xo.html&t=342
Here is a link to an episode of GameNight! where they play Azul, It begins with a rules explanation, then goes into a full play through. th-cam.com/video/V1oekseTbCQ/w-d-xo.html
Do you recommend making something to cover the outcomes of the choices you make when you turn to a new page? Surprised plaid hat didn't put that in the app like dead of winter. I loved not knowing what my decisions effected when I made them
I think that's a personal preference question. I just don't study the page when I'm making my choices, but it's something you could experiment with, to be sure!
This game looks amazing. These reviews are sleek. Oh wow oh me oh momma. The pirate voice made my day.
Ha! Glad you enjoyed :)
Love the pirate talk! 😂
Trying to decide between this (Forgotten Waters), Stuffed Fables, and Familiar Tales. I want to play with my family with kids aged 14, 12, 9. Do you have any recommendations? Are they all about the same difficulty? I love the theme of Familiar, my oldest likes Forgotten, and youngest likes Stuffed 😂
Thanks so much for making these videos, your channel is unmatched in instructional videos in my opinion. Been a fan since 2014 😊🎉
Thanks for being with us all this time! I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not - but hopefully you see a few games on here that might be what you are looking for! We do have videos for Stuffed Fables as well, so that might help you compare to Forgotten Waters.
If we use a treasure card for it's +1 skill ability do we discard it immediately after, or can we keep using that +1 til we voluntarily bury it or discard it?
Unless it says that effect is only triggered when it's discarded, then you get to hang onto it and use it over and over again.
This game is already sold out, but they are taking orders it looks like. I am going to place an order. this looks amazing!!!!!!!!
Yep, you can pre-order now and get it in the next batch coming this year.
Watch It Played Already done, my dear friend....Already done...... doesn’t come until August, but I am a patient man.... :)
Hi so the ship on the board moving onto tokens .....what is its purpose ? Is it going to a direction guided by the card pulled at the start ....
I shot this long enough ago I don't recall off the top of my head - do you have a time stamp tot he section of the video you are asking about?
Please answer a question: Do you only keep your pirate sheet for one mission, or do you keep your pirate sheet until the game tells you to discard/complete it? (ie, you could keep your pirate over multiple missions)
New sheet for each scenario.
Just for one scenario.
@@jacobsteele7138 I know this is an old comment, but just got the game. Can I laminate the game sheets and just resume them?
@@Beepbopboop19 Dont know why you would need to. You can order more sheets and the game comes with plenty right out of the box. Most missions you would play 2-3 times max. Plenty come with it. Very fun game.
@@jacobsteele7138 cool, thanks!
So how many takes did it take to get the spin right and catch it right-side up? Cause that was impressive.
First time, every time Todd - of course ;)
Couldnt find the link for the trays in the description
Thanks - added!
ima need RS to do all future how to play videos in a pirate voice, please and thanks :)
HA!
what happens if you lose infamy and you're already the player with the lowest infamy? Do you stay where you are or do you fall farther down the open spaces on the track?
Hey Matthew, you can never have empty spaces between pirates, so you just stay at the bottom of the group.
Just bought it
I hope you have a great time playing!
How many takes did it take for you to get the box catch right? :)
Are you suggesting it was accomplished on the first attempt?! *gasp*
Hello! Is it possible to play same scenario again?
What is the replay value of this game?
Yes, you can certainly play scenarios more than once. The scenario itself, will have similar elements, of course, but outcomes and events from the app can and will change. Not to mention, players will be able to make different choices, etc.
That said, I cannot assess for you what the replay value is, that is something each gamer will have to decide for themselves. What you expect from replay value might be different from someone else.
@@WatchItPlayed thanks for the reply!
What is the song played at the start of the conclusion? It gave me a nostalgic feel like I was back at a library or cafe
I believe it's called Book Bag.
Ok thank you!
I came across a scenario when I had to set the Diles back by one and it is at zero do I said it to 14 or keep it at zero?
Keep it at 0.
(Last message was talk to text) Sweet! No wonder why I lost the first game...thanks Rodney your an awesome fellow!
Great video.
I hate writing stuff down with pen and paper and tearing pages of pads so I guess this isn't a game for me.
That's a very specific dislike - glad the video helped identify this concern for you. Thanks for checking it out.
Great Video! Awesome pirate voice :)
However- solo rules are a bit tricky... if I play with four standees- and the rules say: "Whenever you would gain a skill for ANY reason, you must spend 1 supplies supplies to gain the skill. If you cannot or choose not to, you don't gain the skill" - does this referce only to my standee, or to the standee of any charecter being activated?
I haven't explored the solo rules (remember, I left those for you to discover on your own :) )
Here's what I was able to find out for you. You use four pirate standees (solo rule 4) but you only use 1 character sheet, infamy marker, and treasure chest card (solo rule 2). It may help to think of it this way: All the standees are you, essentially. You're one person with 4 actions - ignore the fact that the standees look like different characters when playing solo - they are all you.
You'll have a single pirate sheet and multiple pirates that you control. Any time any one of their actions (etc) would allow you (the single sheet) to gain a skill, if you choose to gain it, you must pay a "supply". It'll make sense as soon as you do it a time or two.
Hi there I have a question regarding the masked pirate in a 3 player game ..in our group it always feels like masked pirate its changing the game too much the person who has the highest infamy will always have 2 characters and can take any 2 places which ppl can just sit on infamy spots ...in one of our first playthrough's one person had lead infamy for the whole entire scenario apart from once we all know its a co op game but its kinda strange that ...that person will have his constelation completely filled before the others are even half way ..are we playing it wrong or is this just how the game is ? Or does the person who has masked pirate needs to take both actions one after another ? That would fix it if it was like this...so if anyone can help id apreciate it ty vm !
Hey Roxy, this is a tough one to answer, because that's not really a rules question, but more of a design question. As far as placement of the pieces go, you'll find that mentioned here: th-cam.com/video/_xQEGXBJ9NM/w-d-xo.html
@@WatchItPlayed Ty very much Rodney I think next time I play il try to house rule it so that highest infamy player can only choose his own position first and will place his masked pirate last this way would help more balancing and less frustration for the other players . Thnx again have a nice day ;)
@@roxyroxy5414 That is a very good way to do it.
So the Offline Use button only shows up on the English version, and after following the tutorial shown, by adding to my home screen, it still says Please turn off flight mode or use WLAN for data transfer... :(
This might be something to bring up to the publisher.
Where can I find this game?
Check here: order.fwcrossroads.com/
Map seriously reminds me of Wind Waker.
Yes!! My entire childhood I was dying for a Windwaker-esc board game. Now we have both this and Sleeping Gods. So hype!!!
@@attensecallaway9752 I had not seen Sleeping Gods before. It does look interesting. But yeah, I love Wind Waker.
We have to tire of Scythe and Spirit Island before we get anything else, but there are some good ones to pick up for sure.
@@granthamlin8126 Awww yaaa Spirit Island is going on the list. That looks fun.
@@attensecallaway9752 It's pretty awesome. A ton of replayability and wildly different ways to approach things.
If you remember how to play this game wouldn’t it be...
REMEMBERED WATERS?
Hmmm... good point!
Just noticed the Amazing Spider Man 129 graded in the corner.
A very kind gift from some dear friends in the hobby.
Rodney, be honest. How many tries did it take to nail that box flip??
th-cam.com/video/9WXTNh3fsM0/w-d-xo.html
@@WatchItPlayed Haha amazing!
HOW DID THE BOX LAND SO PERFECTLY
THE GAME FLIP THO
*takes a bow*
Do you think, that in the game, there are many unusual words? If yes, this game should not be for me, even when It looks like very nice :)
I'm not sure what types of words you might find unusual, so it's hard to answer that.
Didn’t get the card and token holder huh?
I did, but I try to avoid showing items that are not part of the base game. It's a very cool pre-order special though!
3 to 7 player game that also includes rules for solo and 2 players....
So.....1 to 7 players then?
Yeah... this was the wording they wanted :) I think because it was originally designed as 3-7, but then the solo and 2 player modes were created by the time the video was releasing.
Preordered. Too bad covid delays won’t see this released for a while. Any idea how many months the delay will be? Edit: you should provide accurate info for Canadians, not just US buyers. You are Canadian, right? Your link is for US, which costs $150 for Canadians and anyone else not from the US. Who is going to pay this? Why not provide accurate info: “Canadians are out of luck. You will have to wait for retail release which Plaid hat doesn’t have a clue about.” Plaid hat also thinks their $52 US shipping to Canada is a a good deal after I asked them why it was so high. (they now tell me ups is to blame) We have covid, a time when people don’t have money, and they scam on shipping? Also, plaid hat takes no responsibility for insane shipping, lays it on Asmodee. Asmodee tells me to talk to plaid hat, and they don’t even distribute for plaid hat. Why would anyone support these buffoons? It took 3 emails before anyone even mentioned Us postal service.
I'm not sure, I think that would be a question for Plaid Hat Games. Did you pre-order it here? order.fwcrossroads.com/
I preordered mine last week and it arrived yesterday.
Ordered mine from plaid hat website and got it Monday free shipping
Watch It Played preordered it in Canada. Plaid hat has no idea when it gets released. Costs $150 CAD to order from the US with an insane $42 US shipping to Canada. Look forward to seeing it at Christmas.
Somebody call Jamey Stegmaier so he can banish this troll again.
If you can't talk like a pirate during Forgotten Waters, when can you?? Definitely ignore your friends!
Agreed!
I think talking like a Pirate should be mandatory during the entire game....
What's a pirate's favorite letter?
Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
