Nice, I prefer the solo to this game. Planet B is another game with a similar vibe that seems to hit the table more with a group.

@@economicboardgames first of all thanks for your amazing work!! Second: i have the idea of making a Game about ferrys on México city in the 19th century, players Will be taking the role of tycoons that have a ferry company, the mechanic would be pick up and deliver, market, worker placement and route building, i have to make some historical research, and i love it

Your very welcome. Nice concept, I do love a good nautical game. Navegador, Panamax and Container being some of my favs. Hoping to get Amalfi Renaissance to the table soon as well. It would be great to have a game with some historical aspects related to Mexico, not many out there. Looking forward to hearing more!

Love the theme here Craig. I like how cover economic games with an environmental focus, or social-educational games in general Keep going this route! Also love Karl Marx book up there. As for the game, i do feel it is on the lighter side but t his is no negative. We need more of these.

Perfect!! Just in time as I have a discount on that game. I know that it has a solo mode with only a minor issue IMO: the cards are to be read really slowly to understand what the "bot" is doing. Nice video!! (a solo playthrough would be puuuuuurfect too!!)

First, I thought to not use the "balance" board and just keep the tokens. But as you said near the end of the video, we have a "physical" view of polution level. I think that it helps to stress the plyer to not see the "balance" board going to the bad side.
@darioreinhardt26902 ай бұрын
Yes, it definitely feels more urgent this way. Another aspect is the weight of tokens counting more towards the edges of the seesaw. So physics kind of calculates the impact of each tokens based on their position.

It's certainly something different 'component wise' to a game !

I've played keyflower once a long time ago and I thought it was ok, it had clever use of mechanisms...at the time anyway but I don't recall it feeling similar to this one. I absolutely think 20th century is a super game, very underrated, but the players make this one and with the wrong group and a poor bidding interaction, it might fall flat

Hey, that's great news! Glad to finally see this one hitting retail availability. When it comes to end of round valuations, we found it really useful to draw a grid with 1-7 columns and the order of priority on rows eg number of cards matching etc, and a few matching colour tokens to help keep track of which company is leading on the grid. Enjoy!
