Lincoln lost the game by stopping Nikki from playing on the lower pile. Because he had the 9 and 1 in the same color, as long as nikki's card was 8 or lower, he could reset it to 1.
The key to this game, is that you HAVE TO, at some point, play the bad cards, the 4s 5s and 6s. So, you try and maintain one good pile and one tricky pile. Always play to the tricky pile if possible, and use the good pile when necessary. Which pile is which can often change, of course. OFC there is still a lot of luck.
Could have kept playing the 2nd game. Ross had a 7, which would have played on the 6 (going up). I think he got confused because the arrows are upside down for him. Interesting game.
Maybe the "studio" is not always set up, and when they do set it up while they now that the core members are available for multiple occasions, they record game after game after game (with breaks to cool down between them) and then take their time to edit and publish them.
We did. I was expecting to be traveling well into August. We would have still been recording in the gaps between conventions, mostly that would have been to cover the Spiel des Jahres or something new. We are set for a few more months. -Lincoln
Not my kind of game, but I'm happy they enjoyed. I've played The Game and The Mind.....to be honest in my opinion, there seems to be no game in these games just a lot of vagueness and frustration when I've played any of these games.
And at 6:35, with the combo Lincolm had, I don't understand why he asked them no to play on the lower pile. Especially since the grey 3 from Nikki would have been way better on it.
That shuffle at 4:10. Smooth!
Fun episode and a nice game. The new rules give a nice twist to the game. I would love to try it. Thanks for sharing with us all!!
I'm so satisfied at the end :)!
That was a great little episode team!
Feel bad for Nikki at the beginning. She knows exactly what she's talking about and no-one was believing her.

Looks fun! I love The Mind and The Game. The colour rule in this makes me want this too.

This seems like a much more engaging quick and easy game than The Mind. I'd actually stay engaged with this one.
It is quick and easy ;-) Miss you Jackie. -Lincoln
@@boardgamegeek One of these days! I should probably get a hockey jersey. I've got the Lincoln hair now.
Nikki should have played the yellow 7/1 combo on the low side not the 1/7 on the high side.
What a great game..
I feel like for such a simple game, the rules had to be repeated quite often, haha
Nice game!

i would like to see the hard gameplay, great video nonetheless
So how did "hard" go? You guys win any?
Maybe once. It really is hard. -Lincoln
@@boardgamegeek Thanks, I just bought the game. I'll try the easy version with my kids.
Lame name for a game XD. Seriously, not just they repeated the same name, but added an horrible subtitle.
They really recorded all these videos ahead of time?

Great play. I was really invested. I love the Mind and the game. I want this one now. I like how you can communicate more with this one.
Oh my gosh! When you lined up the cards in a straight line it was so much easier to follow for me. Lol

Same for me. Not a fan of The Mind.
Sounds like you're playing with the wrong people 😊
11:07 - Nikki should've played that cards the other way around and on the other pile.
same at 10:05 :D
@@joelb5967 Right. Lincoln got it wrong as well.

Any idea when this will be available here?
I believe Pandasaurus is planning on a October/November release. -Lincoln
