Join us as take a look at the skirmish game Robot Quest Arena. NB: Looks like I misunderstood the rule about respawning hence one of my criticisms is invalid. Sue me…
this game is underrated. it's superfun to play with family. you can even do team of 2v2, parents vs kids. cool that you give this game a spotlight. it needs more love.
This was a great review yet again my friend. This review has solidified my purchase and I got the jaws expansion. This will be a great game for my family and I to play. Looking forward to it! Keep up the great work!
Good news! This game is even better than you think because I'm pretty sure you did get the rule wrong about respawning. I don't think you ever have to miss a turn. You simply respawn on your next turn. Maybe you have an older version of the rule book which is less clear on the matter. This game is just silly fun.
love the video! we were cracking up laughing watching it, and your production quality is awesome! don't worry, we aren't going to sue you for getting the respawn rule wrong 😁
Light and fun time. Good for a closer game at night or something light on a work night. Glad i got the all in post-KS. Loved the toy factor greatly. Does need some work done on the tiles, such as a better quick reference sheet for the expansion tiles, or at least for the tiles to have one side printed with iconography detailing its effects.
Great review, as always. Looks as if it might be a reasonably good gateway game for anyone getting into the hobby. Anything that has a simple rule set is always a good point. Whilst watching your review it reminded me of Vikings Gone Wild, not sure how many similarities the games have? I like the fact that the game encourages conflict form the outset, something that a turtle, like myself, isn't to keen on. Informative as always. See you next time!!
Once of the expansions added a robot and cards that allow you to sift shop cards but ya there should be some sort of option in the base game as well...
From the rules respawning doesn’t lose you a turn I don’t think? After you have respawned you still play your cards as usual so you shouldn’t lose a turn no matter who knocks you out?
Pretty sure you remove your robot until the start of the next players turn. Maybe I misunderstood that the next player could be yourself but then the rules don’t make that clear.
@@BoardGameBollocks It says on your next respawn phase so to me that’s your next turn. Thats how I’ve played it and it works really well. Takes away one and a half of your dislikes away!
Agreed. That’s one of the best things about this game. You respawn as soon as it’s your turn again. And until it’s your turn, your robot remains off the board, so players have to target someone else instead of attacking you over and over.
@@BoardGameBollocks Great review, but yeah ,I think the rules only say you just can't use any Start of Turn powers from your cards. But I think you still respawn during your turn. That's how we've been playing it, which sounds fairer.
@@BoardGameBollocks Maybe it was just my playback but it seemed like a tiny cut in audio and video was made at the end of every sentence and it gave a strange artificial feel to it. The power went out here not long after (and it's still out) so maybe it's something to do with my link today.

Only drawback that I currently see, is that it is fairly expensive for such a simple game

Yea. Check the description and you’ll see I corrected myself.
I actually really like the theme and look. Kinda refreshing.

I bought this as an easy game to teach but pulls people in 😏👍

Voidfall review on the way??
Or am I completely off?
As always thanks for a great video!
Yes. Need to play it more but it will be done.
Totally agree about the shop criticism. Being able to clear the shop for x energy or even a health or x vp would be welcome.
Once of the expansions added a robot and cards that allow you to sift shop cards but ya there should be some sort of option in the base game as well...
@@tylerrodes2271 yeah especially with even more expansions coming and increasing the card pool!
This game is a blast! As good as was hoping it was going to be. The expansion characters are brilliant as well.
You mentioned Voidfall - will we get a livestream or review Mr Bollocks?
Yes some point.
For like around $60 on Amazon or $120 for the game and two extra characters and cards it does not look to bad

@Adamski_ski Inmisread one word and the game went to shit. 🤷♂️
Is that 12 inches on the floor moving right to left at 6:41 like graffiti or something.
Can't imagine a hooligan pushing little cute robots around a board. Butva new campaign launched which means more stuff down the line in retail.
You seen the price of it though…it’s a no for me
What are the ages for this battler in your opinion?
My 7 year old had no problem playing this
This is bollocks! Hehe, no, its nice you cover this game. I have been checking it out...
almost €90 bucks sjees
Never heard of it, but looks my sort of shit. Belting.
Is it suitable for Edgelords?
I’ve no idea?
😀. Keep up the good work. Love the channel.
Do you have to lift your neon bollocks to get a game out? 😝
I always lift my bollocks when it’s game on
You sound like an AI
What’s an AI?
@@BoardGameBollocks artificial intelligence. An AI voice.
@Lapusso650 weird
Wow, what an edge lord neck beard...
What's happening with your audio and video? Is this an AI version of yourself?
Meaning what?

@mikec64 No mate it’s an artistic choice. Maybe the channel isn’t for you. Try The Dice Tower.
@@BoardGameBollocks ahh, got it. The vids of yours I'd seen before must have been before you added this. Thanks 👍
