    Really appreciate Mike’s thoughts and drilling down into what kind of deduction game this is. Nice review DT.

    The deluxe version of Radlands has the box-in-a-box; I remember most people (maybe not Tom) ooh-ing and aah-ing over that edition at the time.

    Aren't Game Trayz essentially a "box-in-a-box"? Just look at the smaller box as component storage.

    I haven't been watching a ton of dice tower lately, but when i last watched a few months ago Mike was already sometimes added and not in the same room, can someone tell me why that is?

    They turned Mine Sweeper into a competitive game.

    The one example I can think of of deduction with area control is Cursed Court. It's lighter on the deduction, but it seems like there are many similar dynamics. (And I remember Zee really didn't like Cursed Court, so I'm curious what he thinks of this one.)

    • @thedicetower
      @thedicetower  4 месяца назад +2

      Oddly, this did give me some vibes of Cursed Court!

    Does this have an issue with the first few placements being completely random ? Look free points because i went here for no reason ?

    • @thedicetower
      @thedicetower  4 месяца назад +1

      Because you can be bumped out of spots, and it becomes increasingly expensive to bump from a spot, an early find isn't guaranteed points.

    This is essentially just museum suspect…now how this review compared to the previous museum suspect one would be…interesting

    • @thedicetower
      @thedicetower  4 месяца назад +1

      The structure of the information is more logic-based here, while in Museum Suspects it's random. But it's a similar type of deduction system that I think works great in both cases because it leads to inductive, reactive play to other players' behaviors! ~Chris

    I can already see the map cards get scuffed and marked after a few plays. After that it is no longer hidden information which will ruin the game. Ugh...

    • @BitewingGames
      @BitewingGames 4 месяца назад +4

      I’m personally anti sleeves. And despite being anti sleeves we created custom sleeves especially for that reason. So if you want them they are available so you avoid scuffing. 😊

    • @thedicetower

      I am also anti-sleeve. But I use 'em in this game.
