  • @samirjafri191
    @samirjafri191 4 дня назад

    Really great explanation. Thank you!! You seem to enjoy the 2 player mode. Seeing half the deck seems to make deduction less challenging. Is it a significantly better experience with more players?

    • @ShouldIBuyThisBoardGame
      @ShouldIBuyThisBoardGame 4 дня назад

      I play a lot of 2 player because my husband isn’t home often. It is more challenging with more players. But it also depends how good the players are with deduction games. If you have a player that isn’t good at them, then there is a good chance you won’t win. But if all the players are good at deduction games then it could be a lot of fun.

    • @samirjafri191

      Bomb busters is playing co-operatively while Turing Machines is played individually and it’s a race who can solve it quicker. If you are playing with people I would go with Bomb busters.

  • @donnakeferlis1649
    @donnakeferlis1649 21 день назад

    It seems a lot of this should've been in the base game. Because the base game is a bit too basic. It just kinda irks me that expansions seem to be money makers. Begrudgingly, I'll have to buy this expansion to give the base game more depth.

    • @ShouldIBuyThisBoardGame
      @ShouldIBuyThisBoardGame 21 день назад

    This is really interesting to me because I avoid all roll and writes that include any form of drawing! I am much more of a mark a box roll & write player, Hadrian's' Wall and Three Sisters are probably my favourites. I have recently picked up Welcome to.. the Moon and although I have a laminator and I have laminated some of my favourite R&WsI do prefer paper to laminated boards so I haven't played it yet!

    The umbrella placement rules sort of give me Azul vibes. I really enjoy Azul and wonder if this would be a good addition since there are multiple things happening strategy wise or if it would feel too similar?

    I love this game. I have both expansions, U&D and Wessex, adding a 6th house. I love playing the solo mode. I agree the rule book is intense but the designer has released so many how to videos that I rarely have unanswered questions. I use the appendix for many answers. I highly recommend this game and at least the U&D expansion. The game is pretty lengthy so playing with Wessex as a six player makes it that much longer. I do like the builder market movement with higher player count, so there is that.

  • @MichaelZipkin
    @MichaelZipkin Месяц назад

    Great explanation video! I think your camera work is really great, your audio sounds good, and the examples really help. The only suggestion that I have is I think you should always explain to the viewer what it is players do on their turn. If they have multiple options, just go through them one at a time. I had to deduce (get it?) from your explanation that a player's options are either 1.) to guess a tile from someone else, as long as they also have that tile, or 2.) they could discard any remaining tiles that no one else has. It would have been helpful if you could just mention what a player's optional actions are, followed by your examples. Everything else about this is great! Keep up the great work!
