You can do it this way: each validator sheet has 125 different boxes (5 ^ 3 because there are 3 sets of 5 numbers). The validator then has to answer yes or no for each of these boxes. In turn, each of the numbered card combinations reveals a differently positioned box
@@alldoitthesame Every combo of 2 cards of 2 different colors reveal 5 spots. Every combo of 3 cards of the 3 different colors reveal 1 single spot. So yes, there are 5*5*5=125 possibilities on each answer card. ... but on the answer card you can spot 133 locations with X or V, so why 133 and not 155 ... I believe not all spot are used, and maybe some combinaison of holes were not acceptable as it would make the digit card too weak so some spreading is needed. Also some randomization to avoid having pattern visible. Once the holes locations are defined, and the question to answer are specified in a formal way, it is easy to create the truth table to generated the answer card.
I’m very impressed with this. It has taken some fairly complicated mathematics and logic and combined it with an antiquated technology to make an intriguing game. I’m a mathematics professor and I’m genuinely interested in sharing this with not only my colleagues, but my classes!
for any mathematically inclined in the audience: here's what it's doing. each Verification Card defines three disjoint subsets in {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}³, 𝘰𝘯𝘦 of which contains the true secret code. when you run a test, you're asking it, "is the code I'm submitting to you contained in the 𝘴𝘢𝘮𝘦 subset that the true secret code is contained in, or not?" note that the three disjoint subsets don't have to cover the whole space {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}³; if they don't, and you submit a guess which isn't contained in any of them, you'll get an X anyway. @WatchItPlayed does this sound right?
Thank you very much for actually walking us through the initial setup. I just got this game today and have been looking at playthrough videos all afternoon. This is the first video to explain everything clearly and show a new player how to select the cards and get ready to play. Your videos are always so clear and helpful, you have become my go-to whenever I'm learning a new board game.
Just picked this up at Origins Game Fair, and I was already excited to try it, and this has just solidified my desire to try it with my group. Thanks for always making understanding so many different games and mechanics so easy to understand, Rodney. You’re a treasure to the gaming community.
Great video. We attempted to play the game the other day and got a little lost in terms of what we were actually trying to determine. Your examples cleared it up for me.
This looks amazing! I love that it has solo, comp, and co-op mode! My game group loves Decorum, Forbidden Desert, and Paleo, so this looks like a game we'd also love!
Just picked this up in my local game shop and am just delighted by it! Great concept, so well executed. Once the methodology clicks it’s very satisfying. Definitely recommend! Thanks Rodney.
My wife and I still play Wordle every day and compete against each other, so I think this would be an AMAZING addition as something we could play after dinner and not take up too much time! I love that!
Truly fantastic explanation which makes the 'rule' book much clearer. Isn't it funny that with many games the hardest part it getting to understand how to play it and with this game it can be a bit frustrating without a bit of help! You have answered all of my questions with a great video! Just what RUclips should be and be for! Many thanks.
Thanks so much for this. I hope you and your family are doing well and are safe after the storm. I was watching the news and am devastated with people losing their homes. 🙏 for a speedy recovery on the island.
Thanks Jos. We were fortunate to avoid damage directly to our home. No power will be available for days I expect, and lots of cleanup to do here for sure.
this one finally turned up after a long search… holy smokes what a great game, both in a group and solo such a simple yet complex game, I’m a software engineer and it definitely has a vibe that a software engineer or computer scientist came up with this one hats off Rodney, you’re a legend of the board gaming community, one watch of this and I am off to solve millions of codes 😊
After watching this, i regret even more not having played this during this weekend Delirium Ludique, where it was available as a demo. :( Looks awesome.
This one has been tough to find for months except through pre-orders. Hopefully by spring it'll be out more readily. Ben is a computer programmer and he's very interested in it.
Thanks for the video! I'm not into many deduction games, but this one feels rather simple and without deception. (I'm hardly good at deceiving/lying.) Definitely one of the hit purchases at Gen Con. Got my preorder in at my FLGS. (Hearing around a Nov'22 release?) I hope you and the fam are doing well post-Fiona. Do take care, and we will see you soon!
This game is amazing, what’s more amazing is the other games on Rodney’s shelves! Pax Pamir and COIN with mansions of madness and Catan. All the hallmarks of a guy who appreciates all games, love it!
My understanding is that you compose your number within the available punch cards (1-5) so a number with 6 or 7 would be invalid as there is no corresponding punch card and you would not be able to test
One of these days, I'm gonna find this in stock somewhere and get it for Ben! As a computer programmer, he is super interested. I've heard it plays excellent solo.
Hi, just got this game and I love it already. Thank you for this video. I do have a question though. I wonder if there is something that I did not understand. What is the point for each verification card to have a green, a blue, a purple and an orange number if we always put them behind our number cards with the green number up… (matching the circle, triangle and square). They could have used the green number only?
I wondered the same thing - in short it's meant to make it harder to people to memorize combinations of cards (but I cannot fathom a world where that would ever really be an issue).
Hi Lidia, would you mind giving me a time stamp to the section of the video you are asking about. I shot this long enough ago I want to make sure we're talking about the same thing.
What is the point of a verification card have 4 numbers? For example, the card displayed at 2:40 has numbers 201, 204/, 796 and 798#. Why would the side matter if we still need to align the circle, square and triangle with the punch cards?
The reason there is four numbers is to help prevent memorization of which card has which marks. Verification cards will be reused by puzzles, so if you associate question card 4 with verifier card 457, then you'd already know which question is being asked.
One slight comment - at around 5:00 it's not the numbers from 111 to 555... it's limited to containing only the first 5 numbers as digits. So 116, for example, isn't in there.
Loved the video! One question: - Will the secret number always return a green checkmark to all verifications used in the scenario? In other words, say the scenario contains criterium card 14 ("Which of the colors is the smallest?"), does that imply that one of the colors is in fact strictly smaller than the other two (thus eliminating numbers like 322 or 115 right off the bat, even before the first round)? Or would it still be possible for the secret number to be 322, in which case it would just always return an X for criterium card 14 (since it would be an invalid question)?
@@jernmon I saw this part too, but my question still stands. :) Would the inclusion of such a criterium card imply that there hás to be one single smallest number? Or would something like 322 still be a possible solution?
@@MandyFilet I would think that the secret number determines what criterium cards can be used it. Card 14 loses meaning if the smallest digit is repeated, so the designer of the scenario shouldn't choose that card for those secret numbers. So, I would think that yes, the card itself can imply some information without ever being consumed. This is an intro scenario and I believe they are rated with a difficulty, so it makes sense that some cards could give information by merely being chosen
@@MandyFilet One of the three conditions is true in the final code, so yes, there will be a smallest digit, else none of the conditions will be true. And yes, the correct code will satisfy all the verifiers' conditions. It should be the only code that satisfies all conditions, in fact.
Well if your red green colorblind this game set up should be fun. Game look fun though. Love the channel most games I own I have but after watching your learn to play
Thanks to you, I as a german can play my french version of "turing machine" now. One question: I assume your explanation means that all solutions must be numbers, which are clearly findable with the answers giving by the machine. If the solution was 111 this turn the answers would have been the same as for 222, therefore it couldn't be neither 111 or 222, right?
@@WatchItPlayed Imagine the right number in your example was 1111. And than imagine it was 2222. The answers would have been the same. The game says that you lose, if you pick the wrong number. If the game gives you the same answers for different numbers, that you cannot tell them apart, it does not seem fair to lose like that. Therefore they likely only pick numbers, with no answer-twin like 1111 to 2222. Which gives you a whole lot of information.
@@laskarisb8528 Could you please time stamp me to the example you are referring to? I shot this long enough ago I don't know exactly which part you are referring to, and I want to be sure we're both talking about the same thing.
So going back to the section D test... Suppose that the actual secret number was 131. The actual answer has no lowest number. But that isn't one of the possible results. Would we get a checkmark when we test a code that has no lowest number? Or is this an impossible situation-- i.e. the game would not use this test for this number, and therefore we can deduce without testing anything that there *is* a lowest number (but still have no idea which one it is)?
Do you have a time stamp for that? I shot this long enough ago I don't recall the example (I also MIGHT not recall the specific machine reaction for that scenario even if I was to check it).
Thanks! From my memory (which isn't perfect), I believe the game doesn't use that test for that kind of number, so you don't have to worry about that. If I'm wrong, please do come back and let me know if you experience it differently.
I’m confused on how there are millions of solutions when there are only 444 3-digit numbers available using 1-5? That said, what an incredibly designed game. I enjoy logic puzzles so I’m looking forward to giving this a shot.
HI Paul. There are millions of puzzles. You are right that there are only 444 answers. Each puzzle is different because it uses different criteria cards. As an example, a "correct answer" of 332 (say) could arise from hundreds of different combinations of criterion cards. Finding that particular answer (say) may be far more difficult with 4 lower numbered criteria (say) than 4 higher numbered criteria (say). This is the incredible beauty and art of this design!
If I understand this right, for a given validator, it's possible that none of the options has a checkmark, right? Like in the "blue is smallest / yellow is smallest / purple is smallest" example, if the right number was 121, then all three options would have Xs, right?
I believe "technically" that's right (in other words that's how the machine SHOULD reply to a situation like that), however if I understand correctly, the machine will not create situations like that. IN other words if it has a "X is the smallest number" checker, then it means there will be one number that is smaller than all the rest.
Two things you got to know about this game! There is always exactly one answer! If you can ask a question where one answer would give an exact result and the other answer would give many opportunities as the final result, it is always! the answer which gives an exact answer. You can always find an exact number, the game does not let you down, you never have to guess the answer. (This is not an information given by the game, it is the result of playing some rounds, so there is a very low chance that I am wrong) Also I figured after some rounds that there is always a possible answer which will give a checkmark. Means if the card offers to find out if one of the symbol is a 4, there is a minimum of one 4 in the answer. (This was always right, but again: There is still a chance this could be wrong). This is what I tried to ask earlier #WatchItPlay. I just couldn't ask understandable.
Just curious, how would you rank the four COINS on your shelf, based on your personal preference? I have played Cuba Libre and Gandhi and liked both, and I recently bought Pendragon but it is yet to be played (would love a how-to-play video for it!).
I actually have all of the COINS. But they may not all be in view. I haven’t played all of them (currently learning Falling Sky). I tend to avoid general rankings of games though. I can say Cuba Libre has been played the most.
Thank you for making learning a new board game easy!
I hope you have a great time playing Jennifer - thank you for the kind support!
How in the world did they figure out how to make this mechanism work? That deserves its own video.

I actually have all of the COINS. But they may not all be in view. I haven’t played all of them (currently learning Falling Sky). I tend to avoid general rankings of games though. I can say Cuba Libre has been played the most.
This is interesting. I've never seen anything like it.
Quite unique, isn't it?
Just saw this ! Hope I can purchase it outside USA :D
I believe you'll be able to!
This game will became de definitive deduction game! :D
This looks awesome. Will it be available in EU soon?
Last I heard, it'll be available at the end of October.
Let’s hope so!
Hope you're doing well!
Thank you!
Does the tray have to be dismantled each time you store the game?
No
No. It fits back into the box once it's assembled
Thankfully not :)
since you're making a vid on this does that mean this will be more widely available?
I believe it’s releasing soon, which will make it much more available :)
Impressive game
Cool game!
Here's to hoping that the family is safe and that you didn't suffer to much damage from the storm....
We’re fortunate that nothing hit our house. No power for several days, and lots of fallen trees to clear out. We’re doing well though!
