Awesome video! Thanks for sharing another fun night of laughter and learning. Lots of good quotes this episode too, ha! Definitely on my purchase list. Love games with relatively simple mechanics but a high ceiling for creativity and skill expression.
One flaw with this game is that the difficulty varies with player count pretty significantly. At 5 players, you need 1.6 points per guess. But the extra round in 3/6 players pushes you back 3 spaces, so now you need 1.8 points per guess. At 4 players you have 2 extra guesses, but need 5 more points to reach the flowers, making you need 2 points per guess on average. This means in a 5 player game you can "win" by alternating 2s and 1s, but in a 4 player game you need to hit consistent 2s, which is a substantial increase in difficulty.
41:30 I have watched nearly every single GameNight! Video since the beginning. The reveal of Angel and Fork was the funniest reveal ever! I am serious when I say that I nearly peed myself from laughing so hard. I am a grown man. Great show yall!!
Fun video guys, and the game looks like a heap of fun. It's just too bad I'm literally rubbish at word games, even if you removed the cups so we could see where the trap was, I'd STILL get it wrong! So, my money's safe this week; I'd play it, but I wouldn't purchase this one. And remember, keep your friends close, and your Angelforks closer! 😂
interesting game! just one comment, as a former forklift driver I can tell you that plastic pallets break far more than the wooden ones, and the wooden ones can be rebuilt, so wooden pallets are more reusable!
I think with this game...when setting the trap, the player should also move the other cover as well a bit, otherwise attentive players will notice slight variations in placement of the cover before and after they close their eyes.
Not sure if you noticed, and haven't read the rules, but there's a "4 player" square just after the first corner. Does that mean you should have started from there?
@acemavrick, that shows 4 "people" but the "number" of players is shown as 5. The rulebook specifies "place the score marker on the position of the scoreboard that corresponds to the number of people playing" and that with 4 players you will have 8 objects so we put it in the correct spot. Thanks for the note and for watching. -Lincoln
Lincoln: "I mean, Mike's smart".. flips trap.
Do not pick Mike.
WOW! This game is HARD. Fun to watch for sure!

Did Lincoln EVER miss one of these?

Dave would say "this game is easy :D"
OMG, no. I would have 100% pushed for Movement with Lincoln's Flute/Bassoon and been wrong!
And I just finished the entire episode - I would have totally been a liability here :)
@davidarnott6085 🤣🤣 But that's the thing, I feel you always say that ironically, at the hardest games
