Anyone can explain "Bull Headed" to me? Gain 1 ⭐️ if you are able to yield Tokyo but choose not to... i thought i have to yield Tokyo if the other one goes out, so there's not a choice not to do it...

I have been playing the base game using the house rule that puts duplicates in the store on top of each other. This way there are always 6 unique cards to purchase. I have the Monster Box of Monsters and the Charms and Potion expansions to play.

The base game is my family’s favorite game but after we finished all games up to “year seven” we went back and continued to play year five which we think is the best. It is challenging but winnable (usually a very close call) and can be played in a reasonable amount of time. After that, we feel the game becomes too long and involved. That’s why we never bought the expansion. I can’t imagine playing for 3 hours. That would be way past its welcome for us. I remember enjoying watching you guys play the base game way back when. I will watch this episode soon.

Hello! The instructor lady was very comprehensive and thorough. I really liked the way she presented the How to play section. This is one of my favourite games as well. I would not have paired certain characters with certain proficiencies as she did, though. I would not pair Hermione with Charms, because she wants to play spells, not discard them. Charms go perfectly with Luna guaranteeing her to use her ability for drawing. Flying lessons would fit Hermione the best, because she's the one with the highest chance of generating the most money. Ofc, any setup is fine if you like, just talking about my experiences. After the lady said that she's played so much time with this game, I was really surprised by the number of mistakes. They have happened both in favor and against you. 34:25 You may discard it, not put it on the bottom. 50:55 No, you weren't. You just lost 1 health for the dark arts. 55:48 It's not a mistake, just a missed opportunity. Norbert could have got an influence. You added one to him the next turn, so I hoped you would recognise this and add one afterwards. 58:13 This is quite a huge mistake. When you are stunned by Avada Kedavra, you are also supposed to add 2 controls to the location, also, you didn't draw the extra dark arts for that particular card. Luna would not have been stunned however, if you didn't forget to gain 2 health when you defeated Barty. 1:00:44 I would not have wasted 5 influence for 2 health! None of you have bought anything for a whole turn. In this case, the replacement might be in order. It's even more terrible, because nobody took the 2 health. And to raise it to another level, this also would have prevented a stun. 1:16:37 If the Luna player used the ally to gain 2 health, that would be his 3rd, with which he could have drown a card with which healed somebody for 2. 1:22:26 With 6 money I without doubt would have bought Alastor over a 4-cost OWLs. 1:27:23 Unfortunately, another missed 2 health for somebody. 1:36:12 I am surprised for not carrying out Crabbe and Goyle, despite doing it a couple of turns earlier in the same manner. 1:43:35 None of you have an item to banish? Really? The Ron player just took a Detention and it might have been worth to have a look at everybody's discard pile. 1:46:29 Those 2 attacks from Hermione's power would have come in handy. 1:47:34 Again, you were not on 4 health at the end of your turn. You've lost health since. 2:08:54 No, you wouldn't, because Fluffy is a creature. 2:10:46 It would make a difference, because if you discarded, you would lose 3 health because of Crabbe and Goyle. 2:14:27 Again, you just didn't remove an attack from Fluffy for Lucius's power, because it being a creature, but still combined it with Crabbe and Goyle. 2:15:00 A lot of benefits were missed. 4 cards not drawn and 2 health not gained. Everybody gained 2 health for the Deluminator through Harry, that's ok. Then the Luna player gained a 3rd health with Quiddich gear, but did not draw a card for Herbology, thus did not heal anybody for 2 health which would mean a card draw for that person again for Herbology. 2 even cards were played which with the completed encounter could mean 1-1 health to the remaining 2 players who haven't received a 3rd health yet, thus 1-1 card missed for them as well with Herboology. 2:22:31 You didn't play 4 spells, only 2 and discarded 2. 2:29:10 I would want to banish the Detention with Tergeo over Filch for the opportunity to draw another card. Also a lot of mess here. Some played cards put in the discard pile, some put amongst the cards in hand, no cards discarded for Cho. I couldn't even follow which card should be where because of changing mind between actions. 2:39:18 OWLs also gives 2 influence. 2:40:26 I don't understand why even hesitate about discarding the Sock? It gives you 2 influence when you discard it. I was so happy about discard at the end, but no idea why not take the 2 coins? 2:42:52 This is another big mistake. It's still Step 3, so played cards should not be in the discard pile, thus should not get shuffled. 2:49:24 The sock should have paid off a few times if you've taken the 2 influence it gives you. 2:53:54 You still should discard 2 cards for playing Cho, so in this case I suggest playing that card last, when you've already played all other cards in your hand. 2:54:52 You do have to discard for Legilimency. 2:57:12 The 3rd big mistake. It's still Step 3, so you don't draw 5 new cards and add the reward card to your next turn. 3:00:06 I would have taken the 2 health with Hedwig, because in this situation the maximum attack that can be dealt is 1. 3:07:15 I would not have discarded Tergeo, because there is a chance that you can draw a card with it. Just the Alohomora. 3:14:17 Ron would actually finish Voldemort off, if he drew a card for Tergeo. It was his owl for an attack, which was another attack for the Every-flavour beans. Despite all these I enjoyed watching this video and I do watch your videos if you play a game that I like. Happy Christmas to you!

Night time dragons only score at end of game. Day time dragons score on a turn. Around timestamp 1.05

55:55 Whoops, Deborah could have assigned one to Norbert from the discarded three influence, as she advised Nikki to do on her next turn. That said, I can identify with this happening because despite being "the teacher" of my household, I occasionally forget things too.

wow! Interesting that we get a playthrough of this like 7 years after it came out. Love the game!

My co-op group has played game 7 several times and we have not yet beat it yet. I have this expansion ready to go for a couple years now and have not opened it!

I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long. Mitch Hedberg

We played every box in this expansion…… we won maybe the first 2 or 3 boxes but after that we might of won one out of about 20+ plays out of the rest of the expansion. There is nothing like starting your turn with full health and ended up stunned every turn. The potion expansion was a little easier but added a lot of time to our plays. Win or lose we enjoy this game and been thinking of replaying the boxes again.

Always wanted to play the base game but never did. After this I think I’ll get it for our co-op group. Thanks for playing this!

Is this debs first teach! Exciting!

I love your games. No one and no other game masters simplicity, art andcomplexity and also motivation like sours. You are a real gem!

Whammed!!!

Heh--someone thinking Jackie was Lincoln's mom! ;-) (Who we saw briefly if you watched closely--she really does look like you would think Lincoln's Mom should look like!) Lincoln wondering what to say about Jackie, he shoulda said: "She's a little runaway!" but that might confuse people and she's also a tall drink of water and not little at all. ;-p So he could have said: Rocker, Thinker, Gamer. Prioritize those! Wonder if Tashi will end up being a streamer of some sort, as she is growing up on camera and always has something to say! Most of the food sounded good to wonderful, glad it wasn't really shown on camera at all to not make our cravings worse! Happy Holidays to all and sundry, lots of fun was had and shared to us later viewers!

Thank you so much for this year's adventure. My wife and I had great fun comparing our solve time/approach to yours. I will say that your studio lights DO help to spot the "little details". The three spiders stumped us but we dug under the candles to get the right numbers. ;) See you next year for the missing Hollywood star! Happy New Year!

I like the simplicity and that the game is quick.

I am from Germany and I love your Gamenights. You all are very nice. We met twice in Essen. Faraway is a game that I will play more and ......more .....!!! I like it so much

The thing about never being going at the North Pole is really dark when you find out how Amundsen died...

Pls Could you make a tutorial of the Head Hunter mode?

Wow! The ending was SO anti-climatic. No grand finale. I think it would have been better if it had built to a bigger and better last task. You all did great though. You are pretty good at this!

Thanks!

Merry Christmas yall!! My favorite boardgame channel!

I was too curious about this game... For Nikki and Lincoln who always like every thing lined up... this was so satisfying!!! hahaha!!!

Love you all Merry Christmas Can’t wait to see next years advent series

ingenious is the same game as genial, in Mexico both versions are sold; one is red and the other one is black respectively. But this new version is a new taste to try!

I had a lot of fun watching you guys in this advent calendar series. Merry Christmas from Switzerland!

Its been a great series guys. Happy Christmas!

don't worry whamageddon only happens when you hear the wham version. Covers and quotes don't count.

I'm still wondering what was with the one ID card that was smaller than the rest. Just a red herring? I kept waiting for a slot or puzzle that only fit that card. My favorite of the three Exit Advent calendars we have done, for sure.

I saw on HBO they were advertising a boxing match "It's a fight to the finish". That's a good place to end. Mitch Hedberg

What a wonderful adventure! Thank you!

This puzzle was problematic for me because it breaks one of the basic game rules and I quote from the instructions: "The solution to every riddle is a three-digit code." I had found the correct room and was about to write a six on it but i hadnt found the three-digit code so I thought I hadnt solved it correctly. After much agonizing i checked the help page and found out that i was correct. Its really not good when the game instructions are lying to you.

You did a great job explaining this!

Thanks so much. Love watching you solve puzzles that I found so hard last year!!

Whamageddon!

That was great fun. Thank you for sharing this with us, when did 24 days pass! Have a Merry Xmas and enjoy the holidays!

That was an amazing 24 days of gaming and amazing videos! Thumbs up ! MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄🎁 TO ALL!

Thanks again for another great series! Merry Christmas to all of you :) 🎄

Merry Christmas to all at BoardGameGeek and all board-gamers, special thanks to Lincoln and Nikki and guests for all the entertainment over 2024

Thanks again for a great puzzle celebration. I guess my WHAM number is 24 (if we count Lincoln and Nikki's singing the song). See ya all next year :) I hope.

Radlands is one of the worst board games I've ever played, so complex it's shit

Whamageddon is only supposed to be the original version. Covers (or mentions) don’t count so you’re all good! 😂

Dave and Deborah, please promise to do this with Lincoln and Nikki P next year. The 4 of you are the team supreme for this. Merry Christmas everyone!

💛

Thanks for sharing this! I look forward to this advent calendar series every year. Wishing you and yours a great holiday season

I love all videos, and waiting for the next year. Happy Christmas to everyone

I've really enjoyed watching these videos everyday. Hope you all have a great Christmas

It's pronounced KASH!!!! and you throw away the number of food tokens equal to the number of cards you keep in the beginning. He explained it correctly but they played it wrong. And at 35:00 he played a used turn token...I'm watching you Dave!!!

I know I'm a couple years late to this video....but I figured I'd add my thoughts anyways. For me, a couple more excellent co-op games are: Gloomhaven/Jaws of the Lions/Frosthaven Legendary: Encounters Firefly (this is the version I prefer, but I've heard the other options are good too) The Princess Bride Adventure Book Game (really fun to play with my wife, sister-in-law, and 8-year-old son) Dice Throne Adventures Lost Ruins of Arnak's most recent expansion, The Missing Expedition. Burncycle and Unsettled are also awesome. As is Return to Dark Tower. Oathsworn, Tainted Grail, and 7th Continent/Citadel are pretty sweet too. And looking forward, I'm very excited for Valheim.
