    Great camera angles, and explaining how to complete the victory condition first is always the best way to explain a game. My first time seeing one your reviews and it was solid.

      Thanks Ronnie. Glad you liked it. Yeah, I always want to know how I can win the game first! We've more reviews on our channel plus we'll have more board game reviews on The Dice Tower.

    I've been watching videos on your own channel, and I'm glad you've joined the Dice Tower. In the long run, it should widen your audience, which I think you deserve. Really like the way your reviews are made :-)

    Excellent job on this review. Great production values here. The Dice Tower should study your technique and copy it. I often wonder why more board game reviews use one camera and struggle with showing components as the camera's autofocus hunts. You have nailed this problem with the multi camera setup. Exactly how it should be done!

      Thank you Brian for your kind words. We have The Bottled Imp's co-producer, editor and director Julian Newman Turner to thank for the high production values. He does and excellent job and we hope that it adds that quality to our videos that we are aiming for. Look out for more of our board game reviews on The Dice Tower soon.

    Love the LC themed games and enjoyed the review. Best part about it is you seemed to give yourself enough time to talk, some of the other Dice Tower videos I've watched they seem breathless and rushing through.

      Thank you Nythis. Nice one. Yes, I like to think that the viewer has time to digest all the information. Plus I like the cosy feel that hopefully comes across. Hope you check out and enjoy our other videos.

    Not a game for me, but the audio quality (very clear voice) and the video setup of the review are just great. Keep up the good work! :)

    Still one my fave light dice chuckers. I don't play the base game anymore though, favoring the Gates of Arkham expansion (which completely changes ES and makes it AH-lite), but the app game (Elder Sign: Omens) is a decent digital translation that captures the essence of the original. I'll check out your channel and thanks for the review.

    • @thebottledimp
      @thebottledimp 9 лет назад

      +azraelswrd
      Yeah, it's got enough fun and strategy to over come the luck element. Not played the expansion yet. Sounds like it's worth investigating, thanks. Glad you like the review too!

    Since there is not a lot of interaction with other players I would imagine playing solo would not be an issue.

  • @neverboardofgaming

    This game wasn't even in my radar, but as a fantasy lover I'm pleasantly surprised might have to try it out. Great review! Subscribed! Can't wait for more reviews.

    This is a great review. Just checked your other videos and loved those too. But, if I might make a suggestion; the sound affects you use seem to be a bit loud, compared to your "softer" voice. It "might" be better if they were on the same level with your voice... or not. =)

      +Yulay Devlet
      Thank you Yulay; very kind of you. Yes, we can certainly look into that. My friend Julian is the co-producer and editor; he knows all about that kind of stuff! Thanks for pointing that out.

      Thanks Daniel. Ah, good to know, thanks.

  • @apollonia6656

    Thinking of buying this game.
    How many initial dice rolls can one roll at the beginning of each turn ?
    Thank you.

    • @notwewohever7453
      @notwewohever7453 7 лет назад

      apollonia You roll 6 green dice (yellow and red you have if you use item card) If you complete task, you put dice with match smbols on card and roll again... If you fail remove one of all your dice and roll again... After remove last dice, you don't complete "adventure" on card... Sorry if my english is bad... :)

  • @tamponslayerify

    I enjoyed the review and the theme but I share the same sentiment as your friend as this game is a bit too much on the luck side for my liking.

    • @thebottledimp
      @thebottledimp 9 лет назад +2

      +Cest82pr
      Thank you. Yeah, know what you mean. I think if you go in knowing that at the start of the game, the frustration may not be as much. If you are a fan of rolling dice, this would be for you.

  • @LuekalanunFerdalan
    @LuekalanunFerdalan 9 лет назад +1

    We only lost once in this game... Always fun though.. Are we doing something wrong?

    • @thebottledimp
      @thebottledimp 9 лет назад

      +LuekalanunFerdalan
      Only once? Maybe. Did you always read the Ancient One's special ability and evoke that? Normally it is a constant ability that effects the players throughout the game.

    • @LuekalanunFerdalan
      @LuekalanunFerdalan 9 лет назад +2

      i think we did.. Maybe we just always picked the easy ones without powerful passive abilites :/ ah well gotta find myself the gates of arkham expansion sometime

    • @thebottledimp
      @thebottledimp 9 лет назад

      +LuekalanunFerdalan
      Yeah, or you could be very good at the game! Yes, going to get expansion too. Be interesting to see what that brings to the table. Let me know how you get on.

    looks like eldritch horror game

    • @thebottledimp
      @thebottledimp 9 лет назад

      +yossieven
      Yes, it's in the world - H.P Lovecraft. It's lighter in strategy though.
