Ex Libris Playthrough Review

[@ashleyregan2345]

Really glad you guys are back--you have become one of my favorite channels to preview games before I buy! This one will definitely be on my MUST BUY list. From being worker placement to the theme (Books and libraries! Witches, ghosts, and wizards!) to the puzzle-y aspect, it checks off all my boxes! Thanks for the great review.

[@OneStopCoopShop]

YAY!! So good to see a new vid from you two, now to go and enjoy your funny banter and great explanations! Thanks for doing this!!

[@scottylovesthings]

I was waiting for you guys to play some of your GenCon purchases. So glad you started with this one. As always, I love watching you two play games. And Anthony, nice Overwatch shirt!

[@AntLabGames]

Thx! The shirt was one of my many GenCon purchases...

[@jwetsch]

YOUR BACK! Love your guys' content

[@Fettigator]

Excellent playthrough!!!! Thank you so much for teaching and playing it with me at GenCon.

[@CoryFleury]

So happy for a new video! And definitely not upset that it's Ex Libris. :)

[@stevegeorge7773]

Cool play through. Good to see your back!

[@wedjatgod]

Thanks for the play through! The new table looks great 👍

[@AntLabGames]

Thx! We made the table as soon as we got home from GenCon. Love it!

[@timmckinstry1547]

So tempted to get this game, soon hopefully.

Hi! I am from Brazil and my English is not very good but I would like to congratulate you on the channel.

[@creepyshadow]

Excellent review, was hoping to run into both of you at the Con to say hi but maybe at Origins nee year

[@AntLabGames]

We will be at Pax Unplugged in Philly...

This looks like a fun game. I'm kinda new to the game board universe and It took me a little while to figure out the gameplay but i got it eventually. While I was watching this there were moments of silence where I thought phone froze lol

[@adamhall2326]

Welcome back!!!

[@scottylovesthings]

Nice Terence Trent D'arby reference!

[@HITFORDCYCLE1]

Looks good. Preordered !!

[@1ebaymama]

HITFORDCYCLE1 who did you pre-order it from?

[@LettersofVerax]

Super jealous; looks great! :D

[@mattlowder]

Instant buy for me. Thanks guys!

[@1981dardar]

Just a suggestion, but not sure it will breach any law. Maybe can try playing some music in the background as certain moment, it is just silence.

[@AntLabGames]

I've considered this a number of times, but I think it would distract some people from the gameplay. Also, finding music that's royalty free and enjoyed by everyone is not easy.

[@Alluvian567]

Are you supposed to pass the first player marker each turn? She takes turn one first then he took turns 2, 3, 4 first

[@jenjansen9475]

I haven't played the game but from what I can tell by their video, you obtain the 1st player token by visiting the Diviner's Hut. Frances never went to that space to take it back. I could be mistaken though.

[@Alluvian567]

That makes sense, thanks!

[@jbrecken]

Pretty cool for a game that at its core is Rack-O, but with extras - Get some cards and put them in order.

[@rosenkazakov9914]

It's an ok game, but i don't see why would i ever play this instead of "Great Western trail" , or "Terraforming Mars" or dozens of similar titles, which are with much more interesting mechanic, more involving and have actual strategy ( Ex Libris is just deck drawing with some minor tactical decisions, and if you got lucky with the card draw, well you win and don't even need much planing )
