We're still waiting for our Kickstarter fulfillment to start here in the US, but I'm hopeful it will only be a few more weeks...happy to hear that it's worth the wait!
I'm with you! Excited to get it
Still waiting for mine in the UK, can't wait to get this to the table, thanks for the video 😀
Very nice review, thanks!
Thanks for the video, Dan! I'm glad you are enjoying DJ. The production quality looks fantastic! It looks like your box had a spot of damage? I'm sorry if that is the case..
I've contacted the company so hopefully they'll replace my box
I believe you also enjoy Newton; it’s one of my favourites as well. After a few more plays l’d be interested to know on which one you prefer and how they compare. I would even be interested in your preliminary thoughts now. As always, great work and thank you.
I have Newton ranked higher
I love Newton for the puzzley nature, but it's too solitaire for a group session. hope this will balance that a bit
Great video👍 Beautiful token shell for the money. Where can I buy these?
Uberstax :)
You passed on Golem right? I've been nervous about this one since Golem has gotten mostly lackluster reviews
Yeah I was lukewarm on Golem.
Your favorite is this one or Newton if we can compare ?
I read his response to this question from another person, Newton is ranked higher.
Newton
So has Luciani surpassed Feld on your list of favorite designers?
No he hasn't.
Thanks for the video - game looks great, but it is just not for me - as I like light-to-medium weight.
There seems to be too much going on/too advanced/not streamlined for my taste.
That's a lot of specimens in the museum for a 2 player game. That's in fact a lot of specimen in the museum for a 4 player game. Where did you get all those yellow specimen if there's only one on the board and the player you've shown didn't pick their "any specimen" achievement?
One of the special worker placement spots was research anything.
"A master such as..........." Alright Luciani fan boy! :P Lol! We definitely differ on that one. Oh man Top 10 Designers, I think we'd slaughter each other's lists! :D
Yeah first impressions were a 6/10. It's fine but it does nothing new. nothing is innovative, nothing is different, nothing is unique to other Euro's in general let alone Luciani's formula that he keeps repeating "Punishing mechanics that get you VP's and somewhere there's a theme I barely tacked on" :P
That being said at 3 players, it didn't feel as punishing as his other stuff - the less said about Barrage and Lorenzo the better - but I can see this being a bit horrid at 4 players with all those placement payments you have to make when money is so tight. It will now be so important for the first two players to get a discovery instantly and drop it off for extra money just to get a leg up on the other players.
Definitely knew you'd be salivating over this like I would Ark Nova! :D
I don't disagree that there's nothing new here (and I'll also avoid playing with 4), but I think it's a very good Euro. I have it at 8/10.
Don't mind Luke. He LOVES trash.
@@readilium3432 we do know each other already. 😏
This company took 2 years for a eurogame. No minis no crazy producción, thin cardboard, one side screen printing... this campaign was a mess. They didn't respect their backers and we're more than a year late on delivery just Waiting for cheaper rate so they make more money. I don't know if I'll like the game cos I havent tried it yet, but this company is cringey AF
I can only review the game itself, but yeah the customer service I've received is shocking (my box is damaged).
Played it, was not a fan.
