    Thank you very much for the thoughtful review. You nailed exactly what we aimed with the game (build up to a climax , flavorful, depart from the usual hidden movement novelty).
    Glad it would be a top 2018 for you! Looking forward for more reviews from you, I really enjoyed the "let's talk about it" in a more casual fashion. Almost felt like a chat about the game.

    It blows my mind how little attention this game had at release. CMONs usual Kickstarter model would have worked better for this and The Godfather imo...

      I agree about the level of attention. I can only guess “Crime” is not as interesting a theme for people as it is for me :)

    Read an advice on BGG to use house rules: Game ends after 3 Seasons and HUNTERS win if Patron didnt manage to reach his goals/become president.
    What's your opinion on that?

    • @DriveThruReview
      @DriveThruReview  5 лет назад +1

      Absolutely not. That would make it terrible imo. The game we had that went four seasons was awesome.

    thank you, it seems like a very cool game. will you do a playthrough of this game?

      Too hard to do a playthrough with so much hidden information.

    Yup. New favorite game over Christmas. I really like this as a 3-player game with 2-players controlling 2 groups of Hunters. Because of the see-saw action between the Patron player and the Hunters, having a single player controlling 2 Hunter groups means there is just no real down-time for anyone involved.
    I'm a huge fan of Letters From Whitechapel and Narcos:TBG is right alongside it for both a very similar mechanic BUT a VERY different overall feel and strategic & tactical consideration by everyone involved. With these two games, unless there is some blow-my-socks-off new release that uses the hidden movement mechanic, I don't think I need anymore. And I LOVE this genre of games.

    I love this style of game! Fury of Dracula has long been one of my favorites, and Star Wars: Rebellion is in my top five of all-time. I just wish I liked the Narcos theme more....

      I like Fury of Dracula too. Really can’t go wrong with either I think.

    • @vgigulfdmcc1476
      @vgigulfdmcc1476 5 лет назад +1

      I have both and love them for different reasons. But you should know Dracula plays for considerably longer so it will most likely hit the table less frequently but it creates a more memorable experience as a result.

    Hey!
    Can somebody help me with this ? :)
    So in Patron's turn, u can just play or discard one card, and use the sicario ability in that turn. If u can use La quica sicario card one/season that means u use just one plata o plomo card, right? If the game is three (+1 season) 4 plata o plomo cards enough. How can you run out of them?
    thx

    • @DriveThruReview
      @DriveThruReview  5 лет назад

      There are ways to do it multiple times in a turn through abilities and extra activations.

    • @berentez
      @berentez 5 лет назад +1

      @@DriveThruReview what do u mean by extra ectivations? For example if I activate la Quica in the first turn and use his ability, do I have any chance to use his ability in the next turn? So the already activated sicarios in the next turn just move or I can use there ability once again? Good video btw :)

    • @DriveThruReview

      @@berentez I think I might be confused by the question. If you play La Quica's card again you can activate him.

      No. Doesn't matter player count imo other than what I outlined about play time or whatever in the review portion.
