    One of their best reviews. Somehow, I try to show restraint when buying games, but these guys are definitely the most influential on my collection. So far I've bought AS, K2, X-Wing, Suburbia and Keyflower. I've also got Archipelago waiting in my shopping basket.

    My group likes this. It was our first deck builder. Worth noting is that the rules only make sense if you've played a deck builder before. If you're new to the the genre, they're difficult to follow.
    Also, a tip: if you find the game too short, chuck a sniper or thugs in the contested pile to extend the game.

  • @AwesomeHatMan
    @AwesomeHatMan 6 лет назад +3

    I bought this game because of you guys. It just arrived today and I'm so excited to play it. I love how you guys focus so much on how games make you feel and the importance of playing WITH other people, not just in the same room as them. Thanks for making a more welcoming community, all three of you are awesome :)

    I realize that this is a repost of a review, but the line 'toe to toe with any game we reviewed this year' doesn't have much of a punch when you're watching the video in January.

    Beware! you can still find the early editions of this game being sold!
    Make sure you get the version packaged with the HQ and Recon expansions. you don't spend more money but you get more stuff.
    here's the amazon source:
    www.amazon.com/Arctic-Scavengers-Recon-Expansion-Board/dp/B00VWJDCTO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1485386700&sr=8-1&keywords=arctic+scavengers

    Because of your review and finding a solitaire variant from a guy on BGG called "Soloplayforone", this will be the next game that I will definitely be buying when I can pull some money together. I want to personally feel the thrill that you talk about here during quarantine time :)

  • @andy4an
    @andy4an 7 лет назад +2

    this game is better than dominion about 4 times, including the expansions. this is because of the hidden information, the flavor, and the battle for contested resources each round....but most of all because you can win in multiple different ways. You can win by fighting...or by convincing more gangs to join you.
    then dominion wins with it's endless flexibility, even if it is less interactive.
    in dominion:
    "I militia YOUR hands"
    "I jester YOUR decks"
    "All of YOU jokers discard a silver"
    less interactive, but not non-interactive.
    Also, Arctic Scavengers is very weak as a two player game, while dominion is an incredible two player game.

  • @Roxfox
    @Roxfox 7 лет назад +1

    Still one of my favorite reviews. I think this might have been the video that made me start keeping up with the site on a regular basis. Love the smash cut in the middle, love the interruption of the gunshot. It's all got a very... sneaky, somewhat unsettling tone that works with the game. Good stuff.

      Just sold it. I played many games and I feel this game is unbalanced, frustrating as I would play a few turns more and higly dependant on luck, especially for the opening hand.

    Bad art? I love ascensions art. Though I'm kinda bored of the game itself.

    • @tipulsar85
      @tipulsar85 7 лет назад

      Back in 2013-14, the art was just starting to improve and the cards were transitioning to the current frame, which debuted in Apprentice Edition, which is clearer/cleaner. I remember a lot of people played Ascension for the mechanics and lore, they were 50/50 on the art.

    • @orlandonerz2999
      @orlandonerz2999 7 лет назад +27

      Their early videos didn't appear on RUclips. And when they started uploading on RUclips, they just decided against a mega upload of old videos. So they just deliver them sporadic, so that subscribers can get into the old ones from time to time.

    • @mechtroidProductions
      @mechtroidProductions 7 лет назад +9

      Because all of the old videos are on vimeo, which require them pay a fee to host. They're migrating all the old vimeo videos here now that they have a youtube channel.

    • @linforcer
      @linforcer 7 лет назад +5

      The reason they're uploading "old" videos is they''re taking videos that used to be on vimeo and uploading them here. The dripfeed thing is more to keep the channel more active.(I assume)

    • @andy4an
      @andy4an 7 лет назад +2

      lol, lots of people know that the videos used to be on vimeo, but where are the old-timers that remember when the videos before that used to be youtube on the penny arcade channel?

    • @petermobius
      @petermobius 7 лет назад +7

      I like the drip feed delivery. No chance to over saturate on it. Although it would be pretty swank to have a quick one or two minute addendum saying if their feelings on the game have changed since it's original release.
