    Thank you so much for this how-to. You made it crystal clear. The rule book did not work for my brain, it made the game seem way more complicated than it needed to be, so your slow, methodical explanation really opened the door to this game for me! 👍

    Thank you so much for the thorough explanation of the game from the SET UP! very nice Video! just one question though, you said there should be at least "one of each" dark colored action showing on the Castle at the set up, but the rule book says "if all the cards in the castle show the exact same dark-background action, then you should re shuffle?" so it doesn't have to show all three of different action at the start? but you could start with just the 2 of the different actions? I'm just confused on that little detail.

    Question about set up: You tell us to roll the dice after closing starting cards, but the set up #7 says to roll and place the dice. What is correct? You tell us to replace the cards if all 3 icons don't get placed, but the rule book says tell us to replace if all have the same dark background. Which of these is correct?

    Great job, thank you!! I love the components and small box! I love the subtle and not so subtle thematic mechanics. In many ways, it reminds me of Legacy of Yu. I'm a huge fan of Red Cathedral, so once again, I love the setup variability. Thank you again. What a high-quality video. Is there any chance of a playthrough video? Also, is there any chance y'all will be at Pax Unplugged in December?

    Hello, thanks for the video. Unfortunately the rulebook isn't online yet or I couldn't find it. That's why I haven't read through the rulebook yet. I believe that with the warrior action you also get the bonus of a white scroll in the castle. Is that correct? Thank you. Best regards, Biene

    To those that were told this game is like Red Cathedral, it isn’t even closely related. I really like RC but I loathe TWC as it is klunky and really BORING!

      Me too. It really looks like a solitary game , basically no player interaction. I can easily go to pub while waiting my turn again.
      But idea with dices is interesting. Liked that part.
      Just paying/stealing the difference in cubes to/from another player if u stacked on his cube,.instead to bank, would make a lot of difference and better dynamics.
      Same problem with Wingspan. Solitary game, competing against highscore.

      I’ve been playing it for a few days…I think it’s pretty great. Just crunchy enough and yet easy to set up and take down/The AI can be tweaked in several ways. It’s pretty solid as a solo as well as multiplayer.
