    Much later, I recorded a Rating Rebuttal for Kingdoms! ruclips.net/video/U3_4ZDqDhsI/видео.html

    Thank you very much for this nice review video. I do like that you talk slower and articulate better, than many other English speaking board game reviewers.
    Also I really like that you talk about and explain older board game "Gems". And you do it in a pedagogical and structured way. Subscribing of course.

    I wish they could come with Kingdoms 2. Larger map and more different tiles

      Well, there was, in a manner of speaking. Look on the aftermarket for Beowulf: The Movie: The Board Game. (A mouthful, I know.) Remember Beowulf: The Movie? Not many do I think!
      I have the game, haven't tried it, but it does what you say. Each of the three rounds plays on a different map, and different tiles come into play.

      It doesn't sound like that's the same game! Kingdoms is indeed a pretty generic title. 🙂 A lot of the games I cover are old and out of print, and Kingdoms is no exception. There are LOTS of used copies floating around, especially of the second edition (in the back in the video thumbnail). That edition's playable but not much to look at. Third edition (in the foreground) looks much better, but a bit harder to find (at least it can be, among the tonnes of older copies out there). I'm not one for strategy tips, sorry!

    Great reminder of a great game, thank you for that!
    I have the original German edition and a self-made Lord of the Rings version, and I have just put it on the "to be played after the frakking lock-down" list.

      I think you and I have similar tastes in games! I just checked out your user profile on BGG and added you as a GeekBuddy. Many of the games you rate highly are games I hope to get to in this series. Mississippi Queen, Blueprints, Powerboats, Uptown, Cities, ...aber bitte mit Sahne...

    Just found this game for cheap at a thrift store, bought it on impulse, looks like a good choice.

    I played this last night with 3 players and I tied for 1st with 212 points. The rules don't say how to break ties and i didnt find it on bgg. Do you know?

    • @BoardGems

      When scores can go that high, ties are rare. At that point I wouldn't even bother with a tiebreaker. A draw is an exciting end to a close game!

    This almost seems like an easier version of The Estates.

    Yeah, the first edition of Kingdoms was disappointing after having played Auf Heller & Pfennig.
