I love how the app actually references Watch It Played. That makes this the OFFICIAL tutorial for the game. That's awesome for this channel. Nicely done, Rodney.
I really love how Rodney breaks it all down step by step for the viewers. I personally don't even own most of the games we get tutorials on but he does such a darn good job explaining everything in depth and is so cool I just binge watch all the reviews! That Monopoly review was a life saver btw.
Thank you for this, it was hard for me to understand and explain it to my kids, and we trudged forward and played (we lost the city) we had so much fun, now that they are in bed I found your video and we mostly played it ok, now we will do better. Thank you for this video!
Hi. Great tutorial, really helped us get started. 2 questions if I may: if you enter a space with 2 rubble stacks, can you turn over (and if possible rescue) both in one turn, or just one per turn? Can you use the helicopter (before or after) as well as your roll move, or is it either helicopter or dice? Thanks.
1) You can clear as much ruble as you have cards to match and remove them. 2) The helicopter can be used at anytime during your turn in addition to any other movement you do.
For those of you who may be struggling, as I was......"rebel piles" is translated as "RUBBLE piles," which makes much more sense, lol. Another great video! Timed games are the stress I need right now, but I can see the fun in it
This looks like a great multi player family game, with awesome mechanics. Since we don’t get a lot of multi player nights, I am not sure it makes our list. But I like the game, and of course the video is awesome. The replay is a very handy tool, in case you are making a tutorial video and had o talk over the instructions. They thought of EVERYTHING!!
Hey Rodney can you clarify something for me? Is the timer still counting down during the breaking news announcement? If so- and all the players have to stop what they’re doing to follow along- doesn’t that mean we’re losing time? 🙃
Just picked up the last one at target! Quick question if I roll a 4, get to a rubble pile in two moves and have the tools to clear the pile can I do so and still move my other 2 moves that I have? Thank you the video helped me a lot!
Do you need the app to play? Or is it something more of a "good to have" option? I ask because like any modern app it comes a time when the developer just wont update it and will get remove from the app store in any time. Just hoping this can be future proof
Hello! I love this game so far, but have a question: If you have 1 flare and use it to enter a space that has a monster on it... Then, on your next turn, if you don't have a flare anymore, can you still move out of that space? Or do you have to wait to get a flare again to leave the space/wait for the monster to leave the space?
Hey Rodney, after rolling the dice, are you required to move EVERY space for the number rolled or can you stop yourself short to save a scientist? For example, if I roll a 4, but I can get to a scientist in 3 can I stop at 3?
Hey Daniel, you sure can! The way movement is described, I say that you can move "up to" the value rolled, so you can stop anytime before that if you like! Good luck saving the world :)
There are times you want to move 0, even. Like: You’re in a space with rubble. You roll, and draw the tools that are needed for that rubble. Because movement happens before pretty much everything, you would need to “move” 0 to use your new tools on the rubble and rescue the scientist underneath.
Thanks for the question! Yes, you can drop off scientists to the Plaza before a Threat comes out and when that Threat comes out, it is automatically defeated if you have the needed scientists at the plaza already.
Hey Frank, if you don't have the tools required to deal with rubble on your current space, you can still move to other spaces to reveal new tokens, and hopefully your tools can be useful there, or on other spaces in the future. Hope that helps!
Can you drop off a scientist at the plaza and keep going while someone else brings another scientist to destroy a alien or do you have to wait for the other player?
You don't have to wait there, but you can't keep going "on the same turn". You drop a scientist off, by ending your turn on Plaza, but on your next turn, you can leave. Hope that helps!
This looks like a cute game. It’s simple, has a quirky art style, but still gives that fun fast paced stress of the timer! Definitely wanna pick this up
Sorry for the delayed reply - took me awhile to track down the answer! Even when using a helicopter to move into a location with a threat, you’ll still need to discard a flare if you end your turn in that location. Remember that you don’t need to discard a flare if that location is special to your specific character. Hope that helps!
I have watched this video three times and I'm still confused about something. When you rescue a scientist why move it to your character's tile...why don't you just take it too the plaza so it will be ready when needed. If you are in a location when a threat arrives, you have to put all your rescued scientists there and then leave them. Which makes me wonder why you wouldn't put them into the plaza as soon as you get them?
Hey Margaret, this is a tough one to answer, because the answer is mostly just "because that's the way it works". You not only have to find the scientist, but you then have to escort them safely to the plaza. They won't just run there on their own. Hope that helps!
That's some pretty happening news channel theme music. Takes me back to my childhood in the 1970s. Also, I love that the Good Dog character is no less adept at using flares and first aid kits and whatnot than the BBQ Dad. I'm not sure whether that's a comment on the Dog's skills, or the Dad's. No matter; if GD manages to get a selfie wearing that hard hat up on instagram, then the destruction of the city will have been worth it.
@@WatchItPlayed I know you have an overabundance of games as it is, but here's a #ProTip from one industry pro to another: NEVER, EVER put all your Kickstarter pledges into a spreadsheet. I may not be able to buy games for another year! Still, this one's going on the want list. Keep up the awesome work, brother.

It's been great to collaborate with Funko Games, they are really an excellent group to work with.
I think Stuffed Fables also did this with the QR codes in the book.
I really love how Rodney breaks it all down step by step for the viewers. I personally don't even own most of the games we get tutorials on but he does such a darn good job explaining everything in depth and is so cool I just binge watch all the reviews! That Monopoly review was a life saver btw.
That's a very kind comment, and I'm so glad you found the Monopoly video helpful. I really enjoyed putting that one together!
I wonder how many times it took you to say "junk blobs spider robots giant tentacles and sentient plants". That was flawlessly quick haha
lol, I had fun with that!
Watched Funko’s instructions, kind of confusing. Watched your tutorial video, left ready to play the game. Thank you for the video.
Very glad this was helpful Joshua!
Thanks Rodney. You're the man at board game tutorials. Keep up the great work.
Thanks - so glad you enjoyed!
Great explanation! My family and I bought this and found this tutorial. It was great! Thanks!
So glad to hear the video was helpful - have a great time playing!
This is giving me a little bit of a Horrified feel, and I'm here for it! Thanks so much as always for your video Rodney!
Glad you enjoyed checking it out! :)

So glad the video was helpful - have a great time playing next time you attempt to save the city :)
This channel is awesome, I went to bed at 1 watching your videos, for games I don't have and others that we have!
We just picked up this game and cannot wait to play this weekend!
I hope you have a great time playing!
@@WatchItPlayed we did! This game is so much fun! Plays like an interactive video game. Got my heart racing.
Looks like a great game for little gamers. I might buy this for my nephew, he's eleven and I think he'd love it! :)
What eleven year old wouldn't want to take down a giant blob?! :)
There are so many good board games out here!!!!
You can say that again!
There's already a junk blob threatening my home. Gosh, I need to do some cleaning.
I feel you!
Thank you we are setting up now ! 🎉
Have a fun time playing!
that box flip at the end was smooth

Amazing video made of all the components of the game 👍 keep up the good work God bless 🙏
Glad you enjoyed - thank you!
great entry level game for the family, thanks for making an engaging video to get us into the game :)
You're very welcome Daniel - glad you enjoyed the game!
When a threat moves does the scientist and rubble card in that location move with it?
Nope!
Thankyou now I understand
You’re very welcome!
For those of you who may be struggling, as I was......"rebel piles" is translated as "RUBBLE piles," which makes much more sense, lol.
Another great video! Timed games are the stress I need right now, but I can see the fun in it
My East Coast Canadian accent strikes again!
Ha! I was just checking this game out like 2 days ago, leave it to Rodney to come out with a tutorial for it.
🤔 very interesting 🧐
Not saying I was checking your search history, or that I have the ability to do that...

Good question Robbie. I don't remember, but I suppose this could be tested by downloading the app and checking, even if you don't have the game.
Man, this was a good tutorial!
Thanks so much!
@@WatchItPlayed Ohhhh heyyyy, you responded, I am happy!
The app variant the location the monster?? or is the same audio always?
It changes each time.
Thanks for this tutorial! Top shelf!
Glad you enjoyed!
great work
Thanks DeShawn, I hope you have fun playing.
Just picked up the last one at target! Quick question if I roll a 4, get to a rubble pile in two moves and have the tools to clear the pile can I do so and still move my other 2 moves that I have? Thank you the video helped me a lot!
Hey Juan, you only clear rubble at the end of your move.
@@WatchItPlayed thank you so much for getting back to me!
Out of curiosity (since the game doesn't have much of a presence online just yet) what is different in the "experienced" difficulty?
Frequency of the monsters moving is one of the bigger changes!
Do you need the app to play? Or is it something more of a "good to have" option? I ask because like any modern app it comes a time when the developer just wont update it and will get remove from the app store in any time. Just hoping this can be future proof
You would need the app to play
Hello! I love this game so far, but have a question: If you have 1 flare and use it to enter a space that has a monster on it... Then, on your next turn, if you don't have a flare anymore, can you still move out of that space? Or do you have to wait to get a flare again to leave the space/wait for the monster to leave the space?
You only need to spend the flare when "entering" the space, so you can stay there as long as you want, or even leave it. Hope that helps!
@@WatchItPlayed it does, thank you! We just spent all night playing and trying to find ways to increase the challenge haha. Great game

Looks like a great game to play with my daughter. Hope they sell it soon in the Netherlands. Can’t find it yet.
You make me want to be Canadian. Simply the best!
Thanks for the kind words Joseph!
Can you have scientist in the plaza b4 a monster comes out and already be defeated or do u have to wait for a monster to put scientist in the plaza?
Thanks for the question! Yes, you can drop off scientists to the Plaza before a Threat comes out and when that Threat comes out, it is automatically defeated if you have the needed scientists at the plaza already.
@@WatchItPlayed thank you
What happens when I roll and draw tools that are different than what is required on the space? Do I pass?
Hey Frank, if you don't have the tools required to deal with rubble on your current space, you can still move to other spaces to reveal new tokens, and hopefully your tools can be useful there, or on other spaces in the future. Hope that helps!

can i use a helicopter to go into a threat space to bypass a flare

When two scientists are used to defeat a monster where do they go? Back to the plaza, or discarded?

They should do a promo monster for you -- luggage regret. I'd totally buy it.
Ha! I love the way you think. One big, sleeveless hulk.
Love this game
Thanks for checking it out Tom!
A simpler, timed Horrified? interesting.
Thanks for checking it out David!
That is a good assessment. It plays like a simplified Horrified meets King of Tokyo.
Kind of a mix of forbidden island and pandemic
Two great games!
Come on, Rodney. Another game I have to play?!? My wallet can't take it!

Great video as always Rodney but the game doesn't really gab me.
Always glad when a video helps a person decide if the game would be a good fit for them or nor!
And just like that, I now own this game.
Have a great time playing Kevin!
