Just wanted to point out the absolute dedication Watch It Played has. This video was posted over 7 years ago, yet questions are still answered in the comments to this day. This is one of my favorite board games, and I only discovered it because of this video. Thank you Rodney for helping to feed my expensive addiction.
I have watched so many of your videos and I am seriously a huge fan. These videos have bailed me out of so many "I wonder how that rule works" situations. Yall are amazing! Keep up the magnificent work!
You're the best Rodney! Thanks for the explanation. I am the self proclaimed "Rule Learner" when it comes to games in the family. So this is always the first place I come before reading the rule book!
Hey Rodney I just wanted to say I started watching your channel thru the Mansions of Madness play thru you did with Andrea. I discovered back in October of 2014. I fell in love with your style of teaching and game plays and have moved on to "Watch it played" where I have watched every single video you have made! I credit Wil Wheaton for getting me back into board games but I credit you and your Family for my knowledge and taste. Thanks sooo much for what you do. I would like nothing more then to support you and your channel so next you have a fundraiser count me in! Sincerely Josef Caruthers.
Josef, what a kind and very personally meaningful reply. I'm so glad to hear you've enjoyed the videos and have been having a good time getting back into the hobby. Here's to many fun days of gaming ahead - thanks for being a part of our series!
Rodney just wanted to say all of your watch it plays have been beyond helpful. Thank you for all you do and please keep putting out your great content! You helped me understand and explain Arcadia Quest and Cry Havoc this weekend with only having to open the rulebook once! Thanks again man, for making my game nights get going fast!
You're videos are the best on the net on how to explain gameplay. I wouldn't enjoy table top games as much if I didn't have these videos as references. Awesome work!
I'm so happy to see that you're doing a playthrough of this game! This has been on my wishlist for quite some time, but I've never been willing to pull the trigger. This playthrough might just be the thing to decide either way. Thanks Rodney! And good luck against Luke, you'll need it!
I know I'm kind of late to this party but I just discovered this game and as usual this channel has it and it's 8 years ago already! 😅 Clean tutorial, excited to introduce this to my friends. Thanks Rodney 🤩!
I'm Painting the mini's for Acadia quest right now and I like to mention "Watch it played" to learn to play since you do a very clear instructional video if that's ok. I just let people know to watch this video if they want to learn, and watch mine if they want to see me paint them. You always do a great job with your instructions and its fun watching the game play after too.
It's interesting making all the monsters completely reactive. Also this way all the players get to play with the monsters, so nobody feels left out! Sounds like a nice solution to one of the main dungeon crawler boardgames problems at the moment, but I suppose I'll see how it works out in the playthrough videos. Good luck Rodney! (I always cheer for the underdog)
Finally organized a group of friends to try this out at a local game cafe, I hope everything I learned from the game play series sticks! Thanks for all the hard work on these videos, this will be my first dungeon crawler type game, but if the fun you and Luke had is any indication it won't be my last!
Rodney, thanks for all the top notch quality video tutorials! Your videos are amazing and I love how passionate you are about it! I always check your channel for boardgames tutorials !
Good videos. I usually watch Dice Tower for a basic overview, then head here if it sounds interesting and I want more info. Then if I'm convinced it's a good game I want to buy I read the rulebook to make sure I'm clear on everything. Works well since I gain info from each step so when I watch or read the next thing I get it faster. And I would not have the motivation to read the rulebook at first if I wasn't pretty sure I was going to like the game.
Hello again Rodney! Here’s our questions, were a little hung up on the transitions between scenarios. 2. When choosing new weapons after each scenario, do you get to keep the three you bought on top of all the previous weapons you’ve accumulated? Or do you only keep 12? After a few scenarios we had collected way more than 12 cards over time and got confused by the rule book. 3. If you are able to keep everything you’ve collected, can you switch them out when resting? Or can you only switch out the 12 you’ve selected for the current scenario? Thanks so much for all of your help!
Sweet, so it's Krosmaster with a point! Kinda makes me wish I'd gotten this instead, but hey... Always appreciate these are floating around out there when I see a game that strikes my fancy and I'm not able to test it before purchase. Not a big TH-camr, but I def susbscribe to you. Good work, thanks!
I have a question about attacks that exhaust enemy cards: Farfalla (seems like the most powerful close range character in the game?) Ability: Butterfly Effect- When using one of her attack cards, she may exhaust any close hero's attack card instead. QUESTION: I gather this applies to enemy heroes that she is attacking. So does the attacker or defender pick which card becomes exhausted? Hate is a Ranged Attack with 3 attack dice. It is magic. Special Effect: "If this rolls any (crit) against a Hero, exhaust all of his cards, unless he takes 2 extra Wounds." QUESTION: Who Chose if the hero takes wounds or exhausts a card? And does this apply to all similarly phrased attacks?
I avoid address card specific effects on expansions, but my understanding is that the wording is "she may exhaust", so I'd say that means the Farfalla character decides what is exhausted. But I'm not an official source for that. For Hate, it's the player being targeted who can choose. If they are willing to take 2 wounds, then they don't exhaust their cards.
Hi Rodney, Your videos are always the best way to learn a game thanks :). I've seen you use containers for tokens in several videos before, what exactly do you use and what is their size? I've been trying to get some for my games but haven't found anything that fits as well as the ones you use. Thanks, João
Thanks for the kind words João. Most of these containers, I just found in stores when casually browsing. I'm not sure where they came from now (my memory fails me!).
Rodney you do an outstanding job teaching the rules & mechanics of board games! I have a question about payback reaction that I couldn't find in the rule book.If a hero attacks a monster that's 6 spaces away with a ranged attack, can the monster perform a payback if he's using melee? I don't think he'd be able to, but some members of my group think otherwise. Please clarify this so we can all be on the same page. Thanks in advance & keep up the excellent work!
With payback reactions, you'd still have to follow the rules for combat. So, if I fire a ranged attack at an enemy, my opponent can move it towards me, but if at the end of that movement, I'm still out of the monsters range, I can't be attacked by the monster.
At 19:50 you say only the primary target affects you dice if you attack multiple targets that can have an affect. Can you declare the primary enemy in such a group to be the one that doesn't have an effect? This would avoid taking negative effects. Might be bending the intent however.
You do always get to pick your target, so as long as it is a legitimate target, then I think this would be within the written word of the rules to target the enemy that can't effect you. Good question Chris!
Rodney, I just want to say I've enjoyed watching your videos over the past few years and it's so entertaining however it's terrible for my wallet! Haha can't wait to see more.
Looking forward to the full playthrough, as always, Rodney! Thanks for (or as my wallet would say, curse you) for bringing another game to my attention :-)
Yes, if you're just moving out of a space that happens to also have a portal token in it (and therefore, not actually using the Portal with that movement), then it would trigger a guard reaction. So in that case, at 10:52, a guard reaction would happen.
Thanks for the video. I am so excited to get my copy of the game. I had a quick question, though. Around 17:20, you state that each die only has 1 crit symbol. That is only for the defense dice, right? Don't the attack dice have 2 of each symbol on them (crit, ranged, melee)?
@@WatchItPlayed wow this answer was unexpected after 6 years :) I bought it, still own it, played it a couple of times, but unfortunately my gaming group didn't like it that much. Too much dice rolling for their taste... My girlfriend likes it though and my son hopefully will enjoy board games too when he is old enough, so I can put it out the shelf again :)
Question! Will you be playing only one scenario? And you said nothing about rerolls! (Or did you?) I think that is a pretty important concept to know from the start! I can't wait for my copy to arrive, with all my KS exclusive goodies. In the meantime I'll be following your gameplay videos (as if I needed any excuse to follow your videos now that I've been doing so since that Mansions of Madness series...)
Hey there! We're doing just one scenario, but it should give viewers a good sense of the gameplay. I didn't cover any of the bonus "effect" symbols in this video, or special exploration tokens as I felt the video was getting lengthy enough, and they are all contained on a couple pages in the rulebook that is easy to spot. However, I do expect we'll see some of them during the game play and we'll explain them as needed there. Cheers!
This looks really good. I'm wondering if I should get this version or Inferno? Is there anything in Inferno that makes that one preferable over this one?
Question: if I am next to a monter and attack it, it gets a “payback” reaction. If The monster is not slain, and I choose to move away from it. Does it ALSO get a “guard” reaction? Or are monsters limited to one reaction per turn.
... Have you tried sleeving the Upgrade cards? I don't know whether Mayday Red or Yellow is right, if either. Great video though, game looks fun. And colourful.
Does death card that is occupying an item slot lock the weapon to that slot or can the weapon be transferred to another character like in a rest phase? Awesome video!🥰🥰
hi Rodney, I have a question about wind blast and assassin's cloak. if I use wind blast on a target who is wearing the assassin's cloak and it is a successful hit. does the move of the target caused by wind blast trigger any wounds by the cloak?
Hey CK, I avoid answering questions around specific card effects and interactions. That's something the publisher would have to provide an answer for. Sorry I couldn't be more help in this case.
Hi Rodney, quick clarification question: when collecting coins for quests, if one is first, does one collect two coins for the quest at the end of the scenario? (one for first, one for completion) So in the shown case, would Blue [1] get one coin per quest immediately when completing them first and then one more per quest at the end, or would he collect 4 at the end?
+Flavio Gomes Some scenarios can give you a Title (an advantage in later scenarios). The symbol above a scenario name represents that title. When the symbol is shown below a scenario name, that's the scenario that title will give you a benefit in.
I just thought of a question in reference to Guard reactions. If two monsters (or one being an enemy guild) are in the same space close to me and I target one monster in that close space (or the enemy guild)...would that trigger a guard reaction from the un-targeted monster in that space? I have being playing it like it does since the monster is in a close space, but have not seen an example on this. Thanks for your time...
+Daniel Enderle Based on this: th-cam.com/video/jZ8fMyOPZ1I/w-d-xo.htmlm45s I would say that as long as you are targeting a close monster, all other close enemies do not react, BUT if there are close monsters and you target a close enemy from a guild instead, the monsters WILL get a guard reaction.
Played our first campaign this weekend. I have 1 question. Do you only collect the exploration token from the space you end your movement in or all the spaces you move through?
I've been playing with my buddies for a few sessions. 8 years later, your video is useful. Thanks brother.
A pleasure to be able to asisst!
Just wanted to point out the absolute dedication Watch It Played has. This video was posted over 7 years ago, yet questions are still answered in the comments to this day. This is one of my favorite board games, and I only discovered it because of this video. Thank you Rodney for helping to feed my expensive addiction.
Well, as long as the videos are helping to guide you to games you’ll enjoy (or help you get into the ones you’ve bought), then I’m happy :)
Wow, this is the best "How to Play" video I have ever seen for a game. Nicely orderly structured and detailed. Well done, and thanks a lot!
+Gruumsh Orc Warlord Thank YOU for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Best board game play videos in TH-cam. Clear and concise. Plus, this game looks really fun, simple, yet deep.
So glad you liked it!

Does it trigger guard reaction moving out from a portal square at 10:52?
Yes, if you're just moving out of a space that happens to also have a portal token in it (and therefore, not actually using the Portal with that movement), then it would trigger a guard reaction. So in that case, at 10:52, a guard reaction would happen.
I have one question, at 35:05 There is a "Sun Ring" at the bottom left corner that costs 0 coins. Is it considered free?
Yes but it counts as one of your 3 purchases.

At 34:59 at the bottom left, the card has 0 coins. Is it considered free?
Yes.
Thanks man
You're welcome Thomas!
Nice man i like this so much, thanks!!!!
Shogun Nakamura Very glad you enjoyed it!
Does death card that is occupying an item slot lock the weapon to that slot or can the weapon be transferred to another character like in a rest phase? Awesome video!🥰🥰
That card cannot be accessed until the curse is removed.
hi Rodney, I have a question about wind blast and assassin's cloak. if I use wind blast on a target who is wearing the assassin's cloak and it is a successful hit. does the move of the target caused by wind blast trigger any wounds by the cloak?
Hey CK, I avoid answering questions around specific card effects and interactions. That's something the publisher would have to provide an answer for. Sorry I couldn't be more help in this case.
Yes, yes, YES!!! FINNALY...
Hi Rodney, quick clarification question: when collecting coins for quests, if one is first, does one collect two coins for the quest at the end of the scenario? (one for first, one for completion) So in the shown case, would Blue [1] get one coin per quest immediately when completing them first and then one more per quest at the end, or would he collect 4 at the end?
You get the "Doing it first" bonus of 1 coin right away. At the end of the scenario, each Guild gets one coin for each
Quest it accomplished.
Very cool game
Glad you enjoyed!
Wil you be playing this with luke on video?
stefan arts Sure will!
I just got this old ish game and im concerned that in a 2 player game, it might snowball too much, any suggestions to avoid that?
Hey Alex, no, I don't have any advice for that, sorry.
Rodney, I noticed that the sheets that have a map of the city, some of the scnearios have a symbol (square, circle, star, etc.). What are those for?
+Flavio Gomes Some scenarios can give you a Title (an advantage in later scenarios). The symbol above a scenario name represents that title. When the symbol is shown below a scenario name, that's the scenario that title will give you a benefit in.
+Watch It Played Ah, ok. Thank you very much. Great video by the way! I will surely get a copy.
I just thought of a question in reference to Guard reactions. If two monsters (or one being an enemy guild) are in the same space close to me and I target one monster in that close space (or the enemy guild)...would that trigger a guard reaction from the un-targeted monster in that space? I have being playing it like it does since the monster is in a close space, but have not seen an example on this. Thanks for your time...
+Daniel Enderle Based on this: th-cam.com/video/jZ8fMyOPZ1I/w-d-xo.htmlm45s I would say that as long as you are targeting a close monster, all other close enemies do not react, BUT if there are close monsters and you target a close enemy from a guild instead, the monsters WILL get a guard reaction.
Question :
Weapon ranges :
The hero using a bow can attack six space ? Or do they have some kind of limit ( except line of side) ?
No limit other than line of sight for bows
Thank you :)
Cheers From Luxembourg :)
Thanks to Nathan for the assist!
Played our first campaign this weekend. I have 1 question. Do you only collect the exploration token from the space you end your movement in or all the spaces you move through?
As long as there is not enemy in the space with the token, even by passing through the space, you pick up the token.
thx !
Thank you for your video easier than reading a rule book, actually i have a question.
i don't understand Diva's ability, what's that ability?
Methas Riangwong She has no ability, she's just got good stats!
+Watch It Played thank you so much
