I think I got lucky once, then messed it up the second time, but there are quite a few things i the game that need some form of explanation before release. Hopefully, this is one of those.

If it stays as it is, it probably won't be worth more than like 3.99. Really depends on how early this demo is in development time. But with improvements, this game could be really good.

@@wakasm I did like what I played, but it feels really barebones atm.

@@Hinarcia I totally get that. If you know any other games in this Genre, let me know, I'd love to play them.

dude the weeping stone plushie is literally on the upper left corner😅😭

@@nilla4954 Trust me, I was weeping when I noticed it. It's in the name!

Thanks! More to come! I'm trying to prep myself for the eventual campaign version they are releasing.

I have Kreel waiting on me on the shelf. I've played the first 5 scenarios Veilwraith (not all are uploaded yet as I had to take a month break of uploads) and I'm not 100% sure how I feel on it yet. I'll probably try out Kreel soon, and see if that replaces this or not.

@@wakasm absolutely! Take your time and enjoy mate!

Haha, if it works it works! I usually hate the badlands, I've only been doing it in an attempt to ensure a free action but it probably set me behind. I bought the original print and play before the physical copy was a thing, hence why I am used to this method. But always appreciate someone watching. Can't wait to see future chapters items for whatever is alluring you to the mine.

@@wakasm I have been able to get at least 1 Legendary Point per chapter so far, up to Chapter 10 (on Normal Mode, no Texas Hold 'Em).

I did something to anger the Jack gods for sure!

I actually have a few more recorded already, I just didn't get a chance to upload them. But I can prioritize that next week. I took like a 2 month break for another freelance project (and the latest Path of Exile league). Kreel Manor showed up so I might try that once before I record again just to get a feel if it's a huge improvement before deciding which to keep going with.

like 14 years ago I purchased a ton of sleeves from a warehouse of all kinds on a heavy discount. The Euro Mini sleeves I had from that purchase were the mayday Euro premium ones from that purchase already. But you can look up on BGG under the "sleeves" section and I think most of the modern ones are called Everdell sleeves, which you can find probably on amazon or elsewhere.

Thank you too!

I tend to play two-handed more than true solo in most games unless the true solo is really good or as balanced. Specifically for Leviathan Wilds though, the true solo rules aren't as good (IMO) as the two-handed, and for the most part, playing two handed doesn't have that much overhead compared to the true-solo variant.

The "pay 2 tokens, get discount of 3 animals" mistake reared its head a couple more times. Math! :)

I can't fix Math! (I guess I could if I went slower) lol. Yeah, even with my best intentions I always make rules mistakes. Luckily, I believe at least in this case, they are human error related and not "I totally got this rule wrong" related which are always the more shameful ones for me. But people pointing it out (with timestamps even!) are always super helpful, because it usually means on future plays, I remember to look out for those mistakes. Thank you for the feedback and comments! It means more than you think!

I'm just using a graphics editor, along with a java app to help with the digital cards layout and dice (in this case, playingcards.io), and OBS to record and organize everything. For other games I just use a dice app instead, but games with cards, that platform works pretty well.

It's even more difficult when it's your second solo game of Spirit Island. But again, all of this is appreciated. Small streamer is small so I can only provide many thank yous for the feedback atm. I have to give the game back Monday (I can borrow it again in the future) so trying to get one or two more plays, going to try a slightly harder difficulty (And likely perish).

@@wakasm I hope you eventually get your own set of core game and all expansions. It's only like, what, $850? 🤑There is a lot of variety to work through, but I'm always interested to see a well-thought-out and narrated game played, and it's more satisfying watching a well-shot "live" game instead of a screen grab of the digital version of the game, or Table Top Simulator. So I'm sure there are more out there who appreciate your efforts in that regard.

Yeah, I learned that any blight kills your presence after this game, I forgot that this happened in this game though. Cruel world. I was feeling good that I had no major mistakes, but this one feels like a pretty big one.

@@wakasm And you realized at 1:24:58 that you forgot that beasts...I guess I should save my sniping comments until I've watched the whole video.

your pedantry is most welcome. it definitely helps me learn if I misplayed anything, or how I speak lol.

An interesting rule I didn't know. I haven't played against France yet, which seems to be why this rule is added, so that makes sense now that I look up what their special powers are. If this is my worst rules mistake, I feel pretty good! (I assume there are more lol)

@@wakasm I think the first Event can also have an unusually powerful effect on the board state and make the game "swingy," which is another reason for having that skip instruction. Don't sweat rules mistakes--it's a complicated game, but lots of fun.

That's good to know! Overall the rules have been pretty straight forward but timing for things in games can always feel weird. And no problem!

Thanks! There definitely will be more. I have a couple recorded already, I just haven't had the time to sort through them and upload them, but soon™

Yeah I realized that later, oops, luckily, I didn't die. (I also agree about the Dagger Spray vs Deadly Poison, even in the real game, I tend to go with dagger builds, I just wanted to try poison int he physical game since I hadn't tried it yet).

The thing is you can't really decide what you would like to try today in slay the Spire. You have to the take what the game offers you. Deadly Poison is a really bad card. ​@@wakasm

Solo gaming is on the rise! Check out the soloboardgaming subreddit or one player guild if you are curious. But thanks for watching however long you did! It helps!

The feedback means a lot! Thank you!

He said "Thank you!" then ran off to tell everyone lol. Yyou made his day, my son loves comments about the video.

He said "Thanks for that reply!" then giggled off.

Doh, I knew I would get something wrong. Oh well, I don't think it changed the final outcome, but also, lol, thanks for the pronunciation. I cringe at myself not knowing how to pronounce things.

Ganon took her away; Now the children don't play. But they will when Link saves the day! Hallelujah!

Thanks so much. He read the comment and immediately said - "oh that's Debbie Ohio!" as if you both were best friends lol. So we are still working on some reading words, but he was very excited for the feedback. Your channel looks like a good fit for him, so we subscribed!

@@wakasm Please say hi for me! (*waves*)

This was the best unboxing video I have ever seen! Very informative and the best unboxing team I've seen. Keep it up guys!

Haha, yeah, it was a mistake, although I did end up scripting some of it using photoshops scripting tools... so it wasn't all that bad, until I maxed out my computers memory and got "you've used too many layers". Then I realized I could have done that a bit more optimally. And next time, I'll likely just do some simple html/database/js to solve this problem.

It's just the print and play version while using a graphics editor. For the cards, I was just using a playing cards app that allows you to import card faces and set up piles and hands in a browser.

No, you cannot. From the rulebook under the monsters section: "Attack a monster by marking a space orthogonally adjacent..." On page 4.

Thanks, I will need to start playing that was

I don't own Spirit Island since I have a friend who owns everything for it and generally play his copy. I can borrow it though and do a solo session at some point!

@@wakasm that'd be great! I've yet to win a game with the easy settings enabled (iPad), though I'm thinking its mainly because I don't know the finer points of rules (eg, placing blight on a land with blight caused more blight).

Thanks! The feedback means a lot, more than you'd think!

Glad they were helpful! They can be very zen like in the same way soduku is, especially when a plan goes the way it's supposed to.

Doh, I even preset my scoring as a reminder, then get so focused on the outskirts scoring lol. I need one of those "000 Days since last rules mistake" type boards when I play lol. Thanks though for the feedback and watching! I'll update my score sheet then since I believe ties go to Cowbots!

You can overanalyze all you want! Glad these are useful for someone lol. I've been sick so my last few videos have a lot of coughing in them, hopefully that doesn't effect any sleep stuff. But yeah, I learn as I play, so you'll see more rules mistakes in earlier episodes than newer ones. I'm trying to get better with that.

You usually know best when it comes to the rules, but I'll have to look into the discord to see since: "If you are already in a connected group of dangerous spaces you may move within it without being hindered". I interpret that as, once you are in it, you can move within it unhindered since there isn't much about borders of spaces in this game, just the spaces themselves... , and since there is no memory of the different numbers and when they were placed, you could do that, but it's likely you are right. Luckily it's another case where I don't think the final outcome would change but I'll have to see if they have clarified this anywhere or not. Even when I think I have no rules mistakes, I have rules mistakes lol.

Hi, thanks for the feedback, it helps more than you think! As far as I am aware, yes, Ammo can be used, there is no requirement to use it a certain way, ammo just states - "Reroll an activated Good Die and reuse it this turn". So since I used it for defense, that's a perfect case to reuse it for Ammo! (I feel 95% confident on this but the PNP discord is a great place to ask) Good Catch! I did forget to do the react check at 56:42. This game has a weird late-game problem (with how my mind works) in that once I feel like I am going to win by a good margin, it's easy to slip into a "play loose and fast" mode which sometimes means I make a mistake (oops!). I don't do this intentionally, but I've noticed I do that a lot, when recording, because in the back of my mind I'm always trying to play faster for the sake of video length as I feel like I'm a slower player when recording. But certainly a good catch! Glad I was able to help you learn some rules. There are cases I'm still learning myself because there are a ton of abilities I haven't seen yet in this game!

Thanks for the clarifications. I realized pointing out the missed reaction check wasn't needed.... you performed the check regularly so not an interesting rules question. I'm enjoying your journey through dangerous spaces.

Just a graphic editor (gimp, Photoshop) and for the cards I am using playing cards io.

Noted! I enjoy roll and writes for sure, but I'm not super great at keeping up with them in terms of new-hotness. Some have more complicated parts to replicate digitally (I'm not hugely into actual printing and playing them often). There are also some that feel like cash grabs and I haven't quite figured out how to filter through them, although maybe I just try them all. I have a short list of games to go through, like Welcome to the Moon and Twilight Struggle, but maybe I should also just start book marking new ones.

Yeah, someone messaged me on discord (I don't think it was you) to play one of the harder ones, so I'll likely skip to one of those on my next play. I'll post it win or lose!
