Shiit if not yuh gained 1 now🤙🤙 i showed this shit to tha bois n they thought it was some nerd shit..let it be known i no longer have friends since then
I feel the same, I always only have one other person to play with, so we usually play 3 characters each, it's not as fun just playing two people, but it is fun playing each character differently and trying to sabotage the missions. The directions really don't specify how to tie other characters up, or it doesn't even give you reasons to tie other characters up, the game rules suggest you can torch other players, but they're really no reasons why you would want to torch other players, it's more fun for me and my family too try to get through the three sections in escape and then try to come up with who to let escape, and then reveal who the alien is.
Love the videos. Suggestion - Need more of an introduction into the premise of the game before jumping into setup and game mechanics. Tell us where we are going and then tell us how we get there.
You guys should just upload the streams to RUclips so people that don't have twitch or work to much to ever watch live can watch and see if they would like to get the game in question. This game looks fun but would really like to see it played
For those of you wondering Ivan has taken more of a back seat at GnS. He does more producing work which is why Becca is hosting the board game stuff on Twitch
poor rules explanations tied with the most annoying hosts are the 2 big ones --- however this game looks good almost a weird mix of Coup, Clue, Yahtzee and Pandemic
The part that gave us trouble was on a failed mission you can send someone to put out the fire. After the fire is put out the room is still destroyed? Is that right? Then you take that card and marked it on the destroyed room section? 4 of those and it’s game over.
No. Rooms are only destroyed if they are still on fire at the end of the turn. If someone is individually sent to a room, or the team went to a room, that had smoke or fire and used a fire extinguisher the smoke/fire is gone and thus can't get better. 4 rooms destroyed does lose the game however.
johansolo It's not the excitement. It's more, "Oh no! Another person who's very bad at considering headphone listeners and audio levels, on a RUclips show where lots of people aren't prepared for turning their volumes up and down, randomly and continuously!" Felicia got excited. So does Will. But they don't blow my eardrums out.
Except that idiots think Becca is the "person" and not the production and post team. There's no reason in 2017 why there should be volume issues like this; G&S isn't filming and producing in their basement.
The excitement doesn't really come off as genuine... Also, did you just seriously use nerds as an insult on GEEK and Sundry video? What is this, the 90'ies? And who do you think would play this game in the first place? >.
Personally, I think this is a pretty fun, cute video. Your performance was pretty good, you explained the rules well and I like your enthusiasm. "The Thing" part was just genius LOL I do think some parts were a bit too loud/fast, but it didn't bother me too much. Keep up the good work. I wish you the best.
Hey so I know I'm like a year late, but... I guess you could try a two player game? My first time playing was a three player game (me and two other dudes) and it went okay. Hope you've gotten the chance to play it! It's a ton of fun!
angewomon143 From what I can dig up its official release date will be Nov 10th. Although its appears to be a US only so anyone out side the USA will need to pay expensive shipping fees just get a copy.... US amazon site says $79 plus shipping as far as cost goes. So for me living in the UK I will be looking at $100+ for it.
Is Felicia OKay? I'm worried, you seem to be slowly changing into her as each video passes. I couldn't even tell which one you were from the thumbnail. Ur not slowly transferring her face upon yours right? Cause redhead on redhead violence is a crime, mmmkay? Its a crime against humanity.
Obviously, she's just played the variant where you do a line of coke between rounds.
Can't hurt
Gotta up the ante, simulate the crazies of being snowed in with a horrific abomination or two.
I was thinking exact the same. Too over the top for my taste
Yup, she’s one line of coke away from a Mandingo Party.
That's her general MO.
So many years later and John Carpenter's The Thing still holds up. Damn! That's a good movie!
Nero Wolfe Damn good movie. I might need to watch this tonight...maybe with Big Trouble in Little China.
Mac vs Windows before it was cool.
And Tango and Cash
I was lucky enough to be in Vancouver when they were showing a remastered version at the cinema. Bloody marvellous on the big screen!
It was originally a bust and lost money is the box office. Kinda funny that it's a cult classic now... and one of my favs.
Her energy, wow. That’s what happens if you eat all the blue Smarties.
💀
She's so expressive I can't focus on the game itself.
Yeah its too much. Like girl calm the f down, Im not a toddler.
Yeah really, I'm trying to learn this game and she's so extra
A telltale games the thing would be sick
If they ever made a game about the thing, i think it would like Until Dawn where all choices matter.
@@googleplier925 YES
Ha seeing this comment from two years ago when now we have Among us as a phone game
Need to have one made by 4a games instead
Damn i wish!!!
I'm really excited to play this, but also getting 4-8 people who actually like board games and want to learn a new complicated one is hard.
agreed
Even 2 people for me is really hard .
I'm in la let's play board games
I wish I had friends so I could play things like this.
It's a year later, did you find any friends?
Shiit if not yuh gained 1 now🤙🤙 i showed this shit to tha bois n they thought it was some nerd shit..let it be known i no longer have friends since then
Yo where you at? If you're on Cali then hmuuuu

WHY ARE YOU SHOUTINGGGGGGGG?!
She had to do it. You see it in her eyes that she was annoyed by it, too if you ask me. But she was told to do it nevertheless..
Because she's obviously an imitation, a perfect imitation. Not human anymore.
Seriously... I made it through the whole video and didn't understand anything because she's so erratic, screaming, and annoying.
That's her "gimmick".
And as your brain is trying to catch up, the video cuts to an ad. Lol
Not going to trust this review until Becca passes the blood test.
This is the kind of gameplay "tutorial" I love. No rambling on for ten minutes about simple mechanics. Short, sweet, to the point.
Will do! Thanks for the recommendation
But also annoying, over the top and really cringely unfunny.
The Wretch yeah just rambling for 8m40s. Totally different
My only problem with the is, it is heavily in favor of The Thing. It is incredibly hard to win as human
Accurate to the movie that way. Pretty hard to battle a shape-shifter that retains your memories.
Yes just like the movie!
That’s the point
@@johnny_sins_himself but as far as game balance it throws it off
4:40 That would in fact be the way I would describe the story of the original movie to my kids.
She is a 8 year old trapped in a RUclipsr's body.
You guys should just upload the streams to RUclips so people that don't have twitch or work to much to ever watch live can watch and see if they would like to get the game in question. This game looks fun but would really like to see it played
I just bought this game friday!!! So excited to play it
Games like this, Battlestar Galactica and Dead of Winter always tickle my fancy
Okay. I am hooked. I need the game.
For those of you wondering Ivan has taken more of a back seat at GnS. He does more producing work which is why Becca is hosting the board game stuff on Twitch
Wow my favorite movie is now a board game! Awesome!
Stop shouting!
Not sure why there is so much hate for this series, I really like it.
poor rules explanations tied with the most annoying hosts are the 2 big ones --- however this game looks good almost a weird mix of Coup, Clue, Yahtzee and Pandemic
I'm trying to get through the whole video but she's way too over the top.
All board games should come with an instructional video like this. Something that gets everything important across fast.
This is a complicated ass game the first time you play it. There's a lot of keep track of based upon the variables.
This left me more confused
Fun fact: At the beginning of The Thing, the sign seen at the beginning of the film incorrectly sais "National Science Institute Station 4".
It also says “US Outpost 31”
Is it instant win if the captain that decides who goes on the heli is a thing?
this seems like youd need someone who already knows how to play to learn this game
You could also just read the rule book.
Your energy is awesome, I’m loving your how to videos!!
I hate it so much instead
Looks like a fun game!
Please please PLEASE do a Table Top with this game!
You guys really should do a Game the Game of this. It’s really popular at the moment.
Better than the infomercials that these were before... Actual gameplay description. Also she is quite pleasing to the eye. *obligatory fedora tip* ;)
What a cool game from the greatest science fiction movie ever...2nd to Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 1978.
Please use sound compressor on the videos. It's so loud when she scream.
Well aint Becca Scott just the cutest thing ever
The only real upsetting thing about this video, aside from the comments, is finding out Becca is married
made it to 49 seconds in before checking comments, shes too hyped for me...
lol I wish I had enough friends to play
I would think rolling to see who becomes captain should be after set up, not before.
Itd be cool if the original cast of the thing livestreamed a play through of this.
This looks equally confusing and fun. Or would it be...a blast?
Yeah, I’m sorry.
The part that gave us trouble was on a failed mission you can send someone to put out the fire. After the fire is put out the room is still destroyed? Is that right? Then you take that card and marked it on the destroyed room section? 4 of those and it’s game over.
No.
Rooms are only destroyed if they are still on fire at the end of the turn.
If someone is individually sent to a room, or the team went to a room, that had smoke or fire and used a fire extinguisher the smoke/fire is gone and thus can't get better. 4 rooms destroyed does lose the game however.
Where does the time Turner come into play?
the more i watch this the better it gets lol
"The Thing The Boardgame" by Pendragon just arrived. Check it out!
"Oh no, the girl acts excited about things!" - Nerds in the Comments Section
johansolo It's not the excitement. It's more, "Oh no! Another person who's very bad at considering headphone listeners and audio levels, on a RUclips show where lots of people aren't prepared for turning their volumes up and down, randomly and continuously!"
Felicia got excited. So does Will.
But they don't blow my eardrums out.

It's not about acting it's overacting, parodically so . Some people just don't like obviously fake over-enthusiasm.
You make a lot of assumptions toward some people you haven't even talked to, do you like alienating people or do you just not like criticism?
Thai sounds like a complex Secret Hitler! I am all for it!
I wish they distributed this in the UK. Shame I'll probably never get to experience it.
very good game...everyone that plays has a great time
Turn it down like, five notches.
I disagree. Why are americans so dull? This woman is hot, and super cool. I like the intensity.
She might as well just be talking about cooking, I'm just watching her lol.
The comedy attempts really take away from learning the game. I wondered why so many thumbs down hits, then I watched.
Can I try to play this with 3 people?
You are pretty much the coolest human ever
Personally, I think this is a pretty fun, cute video. Your performance was pretty good, you explained the rules well and I like your enthusiasm. "The Thing" part was just genius LOL I do think some parts were a bit too loud/fast, but it didn't bother me too much. Keep up the good work. I wish you the best.
Thanks for instructions.
Honestly, my favorite part is when Becca holds the gun and goes "pew" LOLOL
I saw the movie recently and saw this on Amazon.
She's incredible. In so many ways.
She's annoying af but I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't smash her back door in
If you use a gear piece. Do you lose that objective gear on the tracker?
I only wanna play as Kurt Russell
Where did you get that top?
Can you make a: HOW TO PLAY ALIENS: another glorious day in the corp PLEASE!!!
Holy cow I never knew there was a Thing board game although I have the video game...where tf I been
I think I fell in love. Please make more videos )
Love this woman.
did they do a game the game of this? can't find it anywhere
cant get used to her everchanging look style :)
Calm down, its just a game
Oh Becca
When I was a kid I thought that the most "advanced" board game was "RISK".....
You are scaring me lady!...😳😱 .. I thing she is the Thing!!!
Can you play this game with two people?
Hey so I know I'm like a year late, but... I guess you could try a two player game? My first time playing was a three player game (me and two other dudes) and it went okay. Hope you've gotten the chance to play it! It's a ton of fun!
Which is better? This or Who Goes There??
I want this game where can i buy it
angewomon143

the thing goes skrra
I want to buy this but i cant find it anywhere!!!!!!
Before I watch the video, let me guess...
Very loud and lots of cringe, right?
First time watching this series... Should've read your comment first to prepare me this...
lol same
And not the fake redhead we are looking for...
Right in one Bryan! Tell him what he wins, Johnny! What, nothing? We have no prizes? Oh. Ummmmm . . . sorry about that.
BigBryan2 Indeed. If anyone wants quality board game walkthroughs, watch Jongetsgames.
Too complicated (no fun)...yet, the movie was simple minded for all to understand! Besides, this game sells for over 100 dollars on Ebay! Keep it!
How to play the thing... attach tnt and set it ablaze... before it plays you.
Intriguing. Tell me more about this shape-shchanging entity.
does it go skrrrrrrrra?
Please do a video for ALIENS BUG HUNT.
It's like she thinks this game is for kids, the way she's talking.
if she would tone it down by an order of magnitude I think I could sit through this review.
Didn't realize this was going to be hosted by a Nickelodeon character ...
... whose Ritalin prescription expired, apparently
where can I buy her Rorschach™ pants?
Is Felicia OKay? I'm worried, you seem to be slowly changing into her as each video passes. I couldn't even tell which one you were from the thumbnail. Ur not slowly transferring her face upon yours right? Cause redhead on redhead violence is a crime, mmmkay? Its a crime against humanity.
Its plays good for solo ; or not recommended ;
Wow. Where have you been my whole life? Or are you an imitation????
LOL this video is just over the top for me LOL. Tone it down a little : )
Love this movie
less coffee please
Yeah...I'm lost.
How many shirts is she wearing?
A wee rush of blood I think
Can only three people play this?
I'm falling in love with her.
Among us three years later
