Thanks for your style of reviewing, I particularly enjoy the part where you tell what sort of people would enjoy this game. The one thing I would add to that, is that you need another table in your house to play this on. Or store it inside your gaming table but then you have to finish it before storing another game there. So that's the only thing holding me back from buying this, since I don't have a solid gaming group yet. I guess I could play it all by myself but I already have videogames for that. Always too many good games to play!
Been waiting for your review on this one! Really wanted to get this but it's completely out of stock everywhere in Australia. Great fun review thanks guys, seems the production quality is getting even better
Fabled Lands is the most comparable game to this, and I'm guessing that's where the inspiration came from. These are RPG game books with a huge open world, and yes you can have your own ship and travel freely between continents, islands etc. It's amazing, check it out!
Great review guys! Ship shape! Got subscribed to your channel first time I saw you! Perfect balance of structure, jokes and well working review system and everything is up to the point! Curious, how well this game is played with kids? Janis G did you motivate them to stay engaged and remind them to return to the game after the break, or the interest came naturally?
Excellent review, I'm playing through Jaws of the Lion atm which is the only thing stopping me from getting this game since I don't want multiple campaign/story games
Was just about to pull the trigger on this game... until I heard about sleeping gods distant skies... have already spent too much money on board games this year so I'm just going to wait for that
This looks sooo cool! Also I laughed at the weird, bad impersonation of a british kid at 3:14 because I do a bad english boy accent too sometimes just because it's funny to do :D
Ok I must ask... I just watched your Destinies review before this one, and you had the same "alternate" games from that video. So where did you guys end up on Destinies? Do you still like it as much as you first did?
We've finished campaigns for both games now and the conclusion would be that Destinies is a much quicker, simpler game that has some unique mechanisms, but won't rock your socks off. That said it's still a solid story game - a good game in our ranking system. Sleeping Gods on the other hand feels and is massive. There's much more management, but that also means there's so many choices and options. It's in a league of its own. As we said it's at least fantastic game or even a must-have.
@@BoardGameHangover Thank you for replying! I need light games in my groups so Destinies still sounds worthwhile. Also we would be lucky to even finish all of that.
I wish a lot of my campaigne games were shorter actually. I'd rather a 16 hour campaigne with different endings then have a 50 hour game. With 1 ending. I would be likely to play the shorter one again and again
I have started to not like boardgames that have long campaigns where you need to put in dozens of hours to finish. I'll buy them but do not have enough time to finish them so I feel like they are a waste of money. I miss the really good games where you play the same game an infinite number of times like Scythe, nemesis, Star Wars Rebellion, etc. Story games like this where there is "replayability" doesn't matter because I cant finish the initial run!
Really great content, I enjoy your videos so much. I stumbled on your videos so often, that I had to subscribe, looking forward to new videos. :) Hello from Slovakia.
You guys a truly unique and a breath to f fresh air in the way your videos are made. Keep up your amazing job
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoy it.
You guys are the ship! Keep sailing to even greater heights boys!!
=] Thanks, will do!

already got this game, just came here to watch you guys talking about it, its a great game, but you guys are also great.
Thanks a lot! Agreed... It is an amazing game!

Thanks so much and that is all Jānis T. doing, he is an editing master!
Solid review 💪 No ship 🚫⛵️
Thanks Guys, great review. The way you present is a joy to watch.
Any thoughts for this as a solo?
It works fantastic solo. You do have a little bit more to track and manage, but not a biggie.
Fabled Lands is the most comparable game to this, and I'm guessing that's where the inspiration came from. These are RPG game books with a huge open world, and yes you can have your own ship and travel freely between continents, islands etc. It's amazing, check it out!
Loving the review and the video editing. Also the game is superb, imo. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much. Jānis T. is our editing master!
Excellent review and breakdown of this title of which I completely agree. Well now I think I will need to pull this game out this weekend! lol Cheers
That is a good game to spend a weekend with.
shhiiiii....p, i have been thinking about buying this game for a while now and this review might have just put me over the edge. Thanks guys :D
Thanks for watching, it is a fantastic game ;)
Great job. I really like the structure you have for the reviews. The problem that now I want to get my hands on a Sleeping God copy. 😆
That's a very good problem to have. :D we're glad you enjoyed it!
Good review! Subscribed!
Much appreciated!

Great review and was fun to watch!
Glad to hear it!
Yall are hilarious. I wish you much success 🤘
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks so much.
Have you guys played Lands of Glazyr? It builds off of games like this and 7th Continent. Would be curious to hear your thoughts.
I just played the 1st session with my kids and we liked it a lot. A review might be coming sometime this year. Wink wink. /JG
First time viewer and subscriber - great job, guys. Very funny, informative, will come back for sure. Thank you very much!!
60-1200 minutes playtime, lol. You guys are hilarious.
We try!
Seems like a board game version of those old choose your own path mystery books? anyone know?
very much so, that's an accurate description
Yes, it is with some extra stuff added and without the annoying dying and having to start over.
Excellent review, I'm playing through Jaws of the Lion atm which is the only thing stopping me from getting this game since I don't want multiple campaign/story games
Was just about to pull the trigger on this game... until I heard about sleeping gods distant skies... have already spent too much money on board games this year so I'm just going to wait for that
Yes, that one sounds amazing.
Is there a game like this that doesn't require as much setup and is easier to save/put away when taking a break? Thanks!
Thank you.
This game is very special, thanks for the review.
Thanks for the comment.
I’m not sure if you guys have played Near & Far. Made by the same people, we have played that one so many times!
This looks sooo cool! Also I laughed at the weird, bad impersonation of a british kid at 3:14 because I do a bad english boy accent too sometimes just because it's funny to do :D
Cheers! ;)

@@BoardGameHangover Thank you for replying! I need light games in my groups so Destinies still sounds worthwhile. Also we would be lucky to even finish all of that.
Can you guys make a comparison with the next one - Sleeping Gods: Distant Skies? I can't decide which one to buy
Does it have a timer or you can just play without a stress as long as want? BTW, new Descent is soo cool!
There's an event decks that is slowly running out, but it doesn't really put you in a rush. Yes, Decent is great!
I wish a lot of my campaigne games were shorter actually. I'd rather a 16 hour campaigne with different endings then have a 50 hour game. With 1 ending. I would be likely to play the shorter one again and again
Looks like I'm S.O.L. (Ship Outta Luck) because I don't enjoy co-op play. 😄 But had to stop by and drop a "like." Paldies!
Thanks for watching and the like! ;) But maybe you enjoy solo games, then this works fantastic! Un nav par ko!

How good is this game for two players?
It's great for two! Actually for any amount of player :)
How would you recommend learning this game? Recently got a copy but I must admit the rule book and complexity is daunting…
We watched how to play video by "Watch it played" and it really helped out it - th-cam.com/video/qCjfbyscG8s/w-d-xo.html
Really great content, I enjoy your videos so much. I stumbled on your videos so often, that I had to subscribe, looking forward to new videos. :) Hello from Slovakia.
Thank you so much and hello back from Latvia. Glad to have you on board ;)
Next tapestry expansion pls.
We don't really do expansions alone, but since we have not done Tapestry review, we might do it together at some time in the future.
So it's for introverts who would like to travel but stay in the comfort of their own homes? :D
make it 2d digital and I would buy it :) some games are amazing but just take too much space.....
This one take whole lot of space for sure
