Game deck is payed for and on the way! Thanks

Another game I only discovered because my wife and her sister had this growing up: the Mork & Mindy Card Game (1978), on BGG if you want to see it. This one has "players minus one" number of Styrofoam Eggs, where if someone plays a "Na-no Na-no" card, everyone shouts the phrase and grabs an eggs. the one that comes out eggless gets a penalty, which means drawing more cards. There's also a penalty if you don't say "Shazbot" after getting a penalty. (sounds cyclical). Looks at the BGG entry, I hadn't remembered how Mork and Mindy were drawn in a Mad Magazine caricature style.

The instruction: "pegs must be placed in the lowest possible resting place ... like adding bricks into the hod" is not clear and I think it needs more explanation with examples.

I'm really impressed with the quality of this videos production ^^ From the rhythmic opening to the way you actually present the review. These also looks like really neat games to try out. Me and my wife have been looking for some more analogue stuff to try out. I also gotta say I appreciate you suggesting some third party stuff to add on. I'll defintiely pick these up ^^

HOD is a very nice simple game! Loving!

Dear Sir! Where may I get references about the game HOD? I would be very pleasured.

Love game deck. Gunna pick this one up. Sound great for the beach and camping.

Gamedeck seems very cool!

"Until the game is won". How does one win?

Wow, exactly my kind of channel. A retired boomer with a shelf crammed full of boardgames covering unique games at a reasonable pace doing what he loves.

ninguno me perecio realmente me llama la atencion, ni tampoco lucen muy divertidos pero ahora se que otros libros debo buscar para seguir conociendo mas juegos

Yes a cheat sheet is a must.

This a great video, thank you! Totally agree about needing a cheat sheet for The Farmer's Chess. It feels like it's just a few degrees too complicated, with a few too many exceptions and edge cases. The second Gala is really interesting, I'm gonna have to put a set together and give it a go.

Great!

Many say the original dice lot had four dice that would output zero or one each of them. That means chances are: 1/16 for zeroes, 4/16 for ones, 6/16 for twos, 4/16 for threes and 1/16 for fours. A single four sided dice has equal chances for each possible result, which is 25%. Let alone the lack of one possible result. So, that four dice lot cannot in anyways be replaced by a single four sided dice.

Thank You.

So nostalgic for me. I remember my grandma having Troke. I’m pretty sure I never played it but just messed around with the pieces lol.

I think now I'm going to research fairy tales, children's books and fables from my country to look for inspiration and see if a project is possible.

Really like your channel. I kind of want to make a home brew version of this game for personal use. I think my nieces and nephews would get a kick out of it. Thanks for all your time posting these great vids.

My set had the plastic pieces, but I was too young to know the backstory to it. Up to now, I've met so few people that have ever heard of Uncle Wiggily that you could have convinced me it was just a dream I had 50+ years ago.

My mother knew about this game , how to play etc with dice or dayalu iron made small stick in shape

I had this game as a child in the 70s. I loved the art, and my board had the nicely curved and intertwined path that made me pay attention to the number sequence as well as spark my imagination. I seem to recall the small rhyming poems were also a part of my version. I saw the game on the store shelves again in the mid-2000s and was excited to get a copy again and play with my kids. I was terribly disappointed to see the simplified art and pathway. Took away any real sense of adventure. I don't understand why they did that.

I own a copy uncle wiggle copy right 1988 it by Mb it has dr possum at 100 have photo of the game but can't put on youtube I love your channel I collection alot of borad games old and new

great game, thanks for the freebies 🤩😍

❤ your tshirt 😊

How much more does it cost to make a deluxe? How many buy the deluxe version instead of the smaller one?

Is there a standard size for the boxes? Not the board sizes Like the A system for paper sizes... (Which I don't think you use in North America) Area of A1 = A2 x2 = A3 x 2 = A4 x 2 etc.

😂👍

I learn of the game playing Mount and Blade 2.

Seeing the local variant of the pen & paper "Don't Fence Me In" aka: Dots and Boxes/Dots and Crosses/and once referred to me as "Farmer in the Dell," I'm assured you do plenty of due diligence research and know your games. As a thirty year veteran of pc adventure games, though, I should address the significance of the 'Tower of Hanoi' puzzle. I love that thing, as I readily understand what must be done. Most modern video gamers disagree. This one puzzle is the bane of videogame players. It shows up, time and again. The only worse fate is the dreaded "sliding tiles" puzzle, aka: The "15 Puzzle." (One of few puzzles that allows itself to be configured into an unsolvable state.)

Your Kickstarter link leads to a login prompt. If you intend to only sell to registered Kickers, Apple iOS users or only those with a current facebook account...no problem. But the rest of us are left in the dark...(and maybe a bit confused.) I'd hate to be excluded simply because I don't have an iPhone or a Meta account.

While Pah'Tum might be a fictional game, the pc adventure game series 'AGON...<Insert subtitle Here>.' is very real and a great source to experience other "ancient games" with a computer opponent and a basically accurate ruleset, as far as historians can tell. That said, the "Agon Episodic Adventures series" (which has multiple alternate titles, bundles, and a weird remake if you search online--but this is what wikipedia chooses to call it now,) is loaded with heavy-handed Christian theology and awkward Old Testament quotes. I'm not sure what the original intent was, but it can be off-putting. But, if you want a basic understanding of ancient game design like Tablut, Fanorona, or Senet, this video game series has the basics in a very accessible form. It might not be historically accurate (especially Senet,) but they are all playable. Great channel, btw. You hooked me with your review of TOS Star Trek's 1970s board game. Not everything from the past is sacrosanct, but we can learn new things. Thank you.

Dear sir I was wondering about the punishment of triangles is that three sells white punishment white or is that two cells a large white with a punishment in the middle. Thanks

The video speeds up at certain points. May need to redo the video.

This is great, well done!!

I think I have mentioned this before in a previous post but In a 2016 article for Journal Of Board Game Studies called "Board to Page to Board: Native American Antecedents of Two Proprietary Board Games" Philip M. Winkelman puts forward the idea that the Monopoly game board is based on the Zohn Ahl board which is based on Patolli. He even includes a chart showing the evolution of the game. Definitely worth a read.

no conocia el libro que mencionaste, aunque si he jugado justamente con esas reglas. Algo que me pregunto es que tantos juegos se consideran norteamericanos? solo los que pertenecen a culturas de lo que hoy es estados unidos o también se incluyen algunas culturas de lo que hoy es mexico?

This one is certainly different in play. It also gave me some insight into history. Good work.

The two spaces that make you fall into the stream was unexpected. I thought they'd end up being shortcuts like in Nyout .

Thank you for this information. It helped us figure out the game!
