    Becca, you have a real talent for explaining complicated games in a way that makes them seem fun and approachable. Whenever I try to do the same with my family I just make most games seem like a chore.

      No. I actually came for the game, but learned the nerd version of ‘cat-calling’, which we all know women TOTALLY love.

    I just realized that this is the same Court of the Dead that I've seen for the past few years at Comic Con. I've always loved the look of their sculptures. It's really cool that they are making a game around them!

    When I first saw this game, I was absolutely entranced by the look and design, but overwhelmed thinking to myself "damn, this is gonna be complicated to explain to my friends. I watched videos and reviews for 2 weeks before making the purchase. After a few playthroughs later, I love it and so do my friends. Even my friends who aren't big board game fans. Everyone who I've played so far has loved it and asks to play again! Definitely my favorite board game I own. Awesome game, and Becca explains it very well plus her playing the game with the creators helped see the rules in action :) Thank you to all those who made this game, if you're reading this!

    This sounds like a very complicated game and this was a very thorough guide, but it's so in depth its the sort of thing you would only understand if you already knew how to play.

    • @wishiwerespecial
      @wishiwerespecial 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I actually was talking to someone this game seems rules heavy and overly complicated where all players need to know like 30+ rules. Vs. Watching Cthulhu Wars it also is rules heavy but it's like 10 basic rules everyone needs to know then character specific rules that are written in plane sight for everyone to see. I love tabletop games. But it's hard to get people to want to play when the game rules are really heavy.

      A lot of tabletop games have similar mechanics. Once you play enough of them you can pick up any game and figure out how to play it pretty quickly.

    This game looks like it's right down my alley, but I"m slowly learning the types of games that, no matter how much I want to play them, will never get to the table for lack of other players who are interested as well. Just have to play Azul for the 50th time.

    • @xanzusx
      @xanzusx 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Same, the concept looks amazing but I doubt I can find others who are willing to learn all the rules and play for hours.

      @emaciatedburrito1214 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have the Kickstarter edition of this, still haven't played it. Eldritch Horror has also been sitting in its box for years... but hey, I just bought Gloomhaven and as massive as that game is, it seems easier to learn than these two I mentioned.

    I guess it would be better for some kinda complex games like this one if you just play a couple turns as 2 players to give the explanation. I know videos would be much different and perhaps less elegant than the videos you are use to do but it would be also nice. Probably keep doing videos like this one and some turn sequence videos to show how it really plays. Love you by the way.

    • @wishiwerespecial
      @wishiwerespecial 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah this isn't a game you can randomly decide to play with friends who aren't into tabletop games. It's wayyy to rules heavy and requires the owner of the game to be really well versed in the game. Games that are simple like ticket to ride and qwirkle can get boring for people who enjoy more strategy based games. But yeah this game very much seems like it's gonna be 3 to 4 hours to set up and explain the rules and then try to drag possibly drunk or stoned players through the game.

    theme is very appealing to me, but I didn't undertand anything of the rules, either : Becca's dress, or the headache I'm having now, or the rules are very abstract ... will perhaps come back later
    edit : just saw the big figurine on Becca's right, is there a way to get it?

    This game has too much micromanagement to be fun. It's incredibly off putting to want to learn the rules. Eldritch Horror seems like an easier setup. And Gloomhaven is #1 on BoardGameGeek.com for a reason. Sometimes, with all the minis and modules in a game, the rules need to be restrained, even for the most serious board gamer.
