“My front runner for game of the year” -James Hudson of Druid City Games. Kickstarter: www.oddbirdgames.com/feudum
"Feudum is a rarity of rarities in the board game world. I can't recommend it enough! It is beautiful. It has high interactivity between you and the other players. It has that quintessential multiple paths to victory that everyone seems to love. I judge a game by how many plays I can get out of it. Feudum feels like it's a Pandora's box of that thing that I’m looking for: Tons of exploration and tons of ways to win. This is a game that I will be pulling down on a repeated basis. The game is absolutely fantastic." - Lance Myxter of Undead Viking
“It melts my brain in the most glorious way! The artwork and the whole style is so fanciful, lighthearted and fun that it begs people to play it!” -David Waybright of Man Vs Meeple
“This is elegant! That beautiful feeling you get from an old school Euro that 'if you just had one more action this round' was there all game long. It all fits together in what I think will be a centerpiece game for your collection.” -Brandon Kempf in the What Did You Play This Week Podcast Thing
"This is one that i will be 100% absolutely backing...Everything about this game gets me jumping out of my pants." - The Secret Cabal Gaming Podcast
"One of the cool things that I love is that you have differentiated difficulty levels-the base/beginner game and advanced rules...I'm already thinking 'okay that's cool, that's a fun advanced rule!'" -Travis D. Hill of Low Player Count
“I had the pleasure of playing a prototype of Feudum at Geekway to the West. I had a good time! It's a heavy Euro game with lots of interesting decisions and a healthy dose of player interaction.” -Designer of Viticulture, Euphoria, Tuscany and Scythe, Jamey Stegmaier
“I cannot wait for this game to come out! If I were ever to design a board game, this is the game I would design.” -Richard Ham of Rahdo Runs Through (Top 25 Anticipated Games of 2016)
“Articulate and Inventive…If you’re a true gamer seeking a real challenge, this is the game.” -A Game of Thrones LCG World Champion, Samuel Tham
“Very challenging...very tactical. I love that it is unforgiving.” -Two-time Valhalla's Gate Puerto Rico Champion, Brett Barton
"It's surprisingly well balanced even for as many as 5 or 6 players with strategies and options that can't all begin to be explored with just one play-through. I've added it to my list of games to try to play as often as possible, right up there with Eclipse, Brass, Lords of Waterdeep and Power Grid." -Tabletop Enthusiast, Glen Greeson
"Playing with two players may be even more fun (and challenging) than playing with a group! It opens up the board and allows you to try different strategies, yet still maintains the feel and charm of the game. I've played with 2, 3, 4 and 5 players, and after playing Feudum more than 10 times I've enjoyed every game I've played.” -Playtester, Tim Maylander

It took me a solid 6 minutes 20 seconds to finally decide whether I thought this was a parody or not.
I will admit, the Cones of Dunshire comparison is not lost on me. Haha. Still, a surprising number of fans exist. ; ) th-cam.com/video/mhX5tB6i2CE/w-d-xo.html
What did you decide?
I love this video. It's superbly composed in its information and aesthetic. But it's a lot to unpack, and I'd like to be able to use it as a reference, like the video rulebook that it is. Ergo!

This is magnificent! (And quite helpful). Thank you.
This is what happens when a lvl 30 Wizard summons the almighty Djinn of Timestamps
MVP comment right here.
You, my good sir, are doing God's work
This game just needs some cones to be perfect.
of dunshire
and an Arbiter
THE CONES OF DUNSHIRE
There is conifers
Came here for this. Wasn't disappointed.
Watching that felt like reading God's exhaustive textbook on the physics of things that mortals cannot comprehend. So I backed it.
If you watch a few play-throughs that are on the net, it will seem far less daunting. : )
I still have no idea how to play the game, but at least now I know for SURE that I want it.
Sir Ayme lol same
Heavycardboard TH-cam just did a play through and teach video. It’s long but worth a look.
Hope you still have now Sir Ayme
😎.
There's a lot going on...you start explaining this game to your group with a beer and you finish after your 6 pack.
I had a board game weekend with some friends. A group sat in a table and started learnnig this, and I sat in a different one learning another game (ERA). The time it took my table to learn the game and do a complete play through, they only finished explaining the first part of the game.
one of the best setup/how to play vids ever.
I feel as if I'm watching Twin Peaks: The Return.
Haha. Try this: th-cam.com/video/LNanmqKlpRE/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your kind words. Happy to answer any questions.
Feudum I understand why the tutorial would confuse some people, but I think I've got it down. I would really love to see a full play through though (Perhaps in Tabletop style? They usually show the most exciting bits and add some rule clarifications during the game.)
I haven't backed Feudum yet, but I'm very tempted! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for great game, Mark!
Looking forward for russian preorder with Crowd Games!
Hope addons and kickstarter options-bonuces will be available.
Feudum, Any chance a new video is coming out covering the expansions?
At 22:10 it says that the master of the guild takes the odd number to himself/herself and the journeyman takes the rest, but the video shows the Master receiving 2s and the journeyman 1s. Who receives the odd number then?
Fred Allean The Guild Master splits the shillings with the Journeyman. If there is an odd (extra) shilling, the Guild Master takes it. In the video, there were three shillings that they had to split. They both took 1 shilling, and then the guild master took the extra. So, ultimately the guild master received a total if two shillings, and the journeyman one shilling.
The most amazing rules teach video I've ever seen. Thank you for this, setting up solo against the queen's army to learn it
I found myself with the background song stuck in my head all day yesterday. The videos are all great, but that little melody matches the whimsy of the game.
I really love the art and the thought that went in to this, I can tell u ate really passionate about this (also this is the best "set up and how to play" video ever)
Absolutely superb video. Well done!
I doubt anyone will be able to play right after seeing this -way too fast- video, but still, it's awesome when we need to check if we didn't miss anything while learning the game. This made me realize that a monster *pins* a pawn, and not only *blocks* a *road* (forcing other pawns to use another road) like I thought. Thanks for this awesome production work !
Thank you for the kind words, cho 7kipu! Yes, monsters are costly (in terms of sacrificed influence markers) but can definitely create trouble for other players.
Nice video, thank you! The Narration reminds me of The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, which adds to the enjoyment.🙃
Holy shit. This interests me but there are not enough rules. Not complex enough.
Roland Bruno sarcasm detected
Starting a monthly game night with some people who enjoy heavy and confrontational games specifically cause i want to play this beast more. Love the aesthetic and all the interwoven mechanisms! One of the best looking games in my collection!
I just wanted to tell you I really appreciate that you took time to caption your video as a deaf person. If I had more money I definitely would back this game but alas I have to be more careful seeing that I'm not employed. If this game had a solo variant I'd definitely back it although! I understand that you are working on it?
Hi Michael. I am exploring a solo variant with JR Honeycutt (did the solo variant for Tesla vs. Edison). In fact, I'll be hanging out with him next week....so, stay tuned. : )
The narrator’s voice made me think it was a Stanley Parable video at first. It feels like something they’d do.
Incredibly complex, this is very very cool
Looks and sounds so awesome. Although the rules seems like they will require more than a few run throughs to get completely right😊
Thanks for investing in such a killer rules video. It could not have been cheap. But it is one of the best damn explainers ever, tops even FFG videos
Thanks toasToaTs! A former student of mine named Stephen created this for me.
Is this kingdom named dunshire?
A Thing of Beauty!
Thank you for the italian subtitle 👍🏼🍀🎉
Game looks great. Glad I've backed it. Long time to wait though :-)
Very true, an upside being we get to be excited for its arrival for some time
When can we expect to buy this?
Hello @Tyvan TV, the game will ship to retailers in October if all goes well! Now that the Kickstarter campaign is over, you may preorder the game at full MSRP here: feudum.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
HOWEVER, you may also wait until the summer when the solo variant: Feudum: The Queen's Army will launch on Kickstarter. Rumor has it, there will be some special campaign bundles. : )
Haha... yeah, it is for me too! : )
My brain just melted...
I love complex games like this. And the art on the cards looks great. But I'll never understand why designers choose to use symbols that nobody can read. Forcing everyone to read the rules for every move the first couple games. Instead of just saying what the card does.
It saves space on the card and makes the card easier to remember once everyone understands the symbols.
Also the player aids in the game say what each card does which is super handy
Additionally, localisation reasons. Very costly to change every card in the game. Easier to use symbols and then you only have to translate the main rulebook.
Received my copy the other day and we broke it out last night just to check out the gorgeous artwork. We'll study the game today and then the three of us will play tomorrow night...very excited!
How it was ?
probably still reading the rules
It's exceptionally good. I'm now working with Bruce Monson on a very crunchy Solo Variant
I just re-watched this video, now with the full knowledge of having read the rules and watched the Heavy Cardboard Play-through/Teach. I feel very well equipped now to get start playing this game with minimal hiccups. Very excited to get my copy and start playing this game. Also, every time I watch the video, I'm just in awe and so impressed by how well thought-out the production and execution of this game/Kickstarter was by the first-time designer, Mark Swanson. WOW. Amazing.
Thanks for your kind words, Joshua! It has been a labor of love, for sure. :)
very well made
My brain melted...in a good way!
I'd love to know what song is playing in this one and the Queens Army video. Fits the game so well. :)
I just want to live in this world...
Señor esta bien padre su video c:
Needless to say that this the most demanding set up ever!!! But who cares.....its an instant buy!!!!
This guys voice is it david attenburough.
I have watched this video upwards of 20+ times. I do not know how to play Feudum.
😂
Still not sure if this is real or a comedy piece
The next edition of the rule book (whenever that happens) should literally point to this YT video.We spent maybe 2 hours reading the rule book and not understanding much, found this video, watched it at 1.5x speed and were much better off.
Hello Aaron! Great idea. I'm glad you find the video helpful! It was a labor of love. : )
@@oddbirdgames No thanks for making the game. We finally got through our second game last night and it really is great, perhaps it's only weakness is the time to playing/feeling comfortable. I play with a lot of first time/casual gamers. I'm coming up with a way in my head right now to have alternate tutorial rules that strip away the guilds entirely so they can practice with just the cards, which can get complicated enough (it is ~11 pages). Obviously not as a full game, but as an introduction.
@@aaronchamberlain4698 Thanks for your kind words. When I teach the game, I merely give a brief overview of the push/pull and trade functions of the guilds (spending a little more time on the Alchemist and Farmer Guilds as they work a little different than the others). Once players generally understand that they may play the Guild action to score immediate points or to acquire resources, then the reference card can point out the details when they are ready.
Did you watch Look Around You before creating this tabletop game?
Is there any option to get this background music? I would be very pleased to be able to play it during play.
Try this: freemusicarchive.org/music/Podington_Bear/Thoughtful/LightTouch
Feudum Thank you so much! Now I'm content
any plan for component upgrade? i would like to see realistic miniature especially for ships, to enhance the gameplay. Not ti forget fixing the rule
Hi Eric. Yes! Artisan-edition ships and castles in the works.
great !!!
IN WHAT PROGRAM YOU MAKE THIS TUTORIAL...
145 upside down looked like the word SH!+
I love complicated board games. I own and play Gloomhaven. This is too much.
It certainly looks too heavy when you first look at it. However, it's really just a bunch of simple ideas. Each card it easy to explain, and you will find you use some a lot more than others. It's just daunting when you have so many little things haha. Definitely a game that will benifit from many plays 😂
😂
What happens if an attack fails??
Covers it still the military track? And what happens with the tracking Pon?
If an attack fails, NOTHING happens. An attack MUST be successful to remove the opponent's pawn from the board and cover the military service track with a player disc.
Feudum Tbc a lot
I'm guessing this is a first-time designer, yes?
Can You add Polish Subitions? :)
Can you play with 3 knights or monks par example if you want??
@A K, Yes you can. Having a knight or two in play earns you status, and therefore membership in the knight guild, for example.That said, it is wiser to have multiple characters in play to gain access into different guilds to maximize points.
Mark Swanson thnx
We gonna try it all out in your marvelous and intrigated game.
😎
I need polish subtitles ! Pls!
I maintained composure until they gave a rosary bead to the chickens.
Einstein's brain connected to a quantum computer: uh...
wish there was a playtrough
There are plenty...more than a dozen now
Ok but how do you get the Don Quixote Card?
You must recruit the farmer Sancho Panza and attack a "giant" (a.k.a The Windmill).
This video triggered my anxiety
😂
Is it the same voice from Little Big Planet?
Good guess, but no. The voice over talent is John Cavanagh from the United Kingdom. The direction I gave him was "a cross between John Cleese and Stephen Fry (LittleBigPlanet). : )
Can we get time stamps please?
I genuinely thought this was satire
okay
Does it work for two?
Easier to become a nuclear physicist than to play this game
When I landed on this page from a fairly tangential query, I was sure this "game" was the result of someone riffing, tongue-in-cheek, on Cones of Dunshire. I'm a little stunned to discover this one is real (which doesn't mean the designer COULDN'T have been riffing on Cones). I can't imagine ever finding this appealing. Yikes.
It's very good...not only as evidenced by the number of awards but it really only looks difficult. Any reasonably intelligent gamer will be able to play
Mom? I'm lost. Mom?

wait so this isnt a prank video?
😂
Is this real?
It is not often you run into videos that have intolerable voice acting, but this one nails it. 43 seconds in and I couldn't tolerate a second longer.
It is not often you run into comments that have intolerable owners, but this one nails it. 18 words in and I couldn't tolerate a second longer.
How do you produce a more soothing voice than the one in this video? Oh, right, you aren't going to answer that.
the game is actually reading the rules. once you finish the rules the game is over.
Honestly thought this video was a joke about improbable complex game instructions. But then it kept going on and on and on and on and ......
It sounds like fake game invented and being explained by Sheldon Cooper during episode of BBT, i can't imagine anyone really playing it.
It became unbearable at 13:00 mark already, and then, at 19:04 i heard "All EIGHTEEN options are unique for each guild". It seems to be more social experiment and not a real game where anyone could have fun.
@Konstantin Tenko, Haha. I must admit, your comment made me laugh. It's definitely not for everyone. However, these folks seemed to like it:

Ouch! 😅
Headache :/
The setup is too long for a solo player.
Why you can't stop shaking the camera. It's so hard to keep eyesight on something of importance...
I really appreciate the amount of work you have done, but it is terrible idea.
This fly-through animation style can be dizzying for sure. The only recommendation I have would be to pause sections for clarity.
