[@steamfloggery8250]

Just got this game for Christmas. I’m glad to have this video to share with family and friends. You’ve explained it so much better than I could have!

[@WatchItPlayed]

I hope you all have fun playing!

[@kastalavesen]

Every time I try out a new board game I search and hope you have a video on it. By far my favorite and most easily understood board game teaching channel. Glad to see you are still going strong. Greatly appreciate your work and hope your kids are doing well!!

[@WatchItPlayed]

The kids are doing great (depending on how long you've been watching, they are much older now :) ).

[@kastalavesen]

​@@WatchItPlayed Glad to hear! Many many years by now. Always thought it was cute and clever when you included them in the past. Made the videos have a cozy and homey feel to them. Thanks for the videos again, especially the ones on some of the smaller and less known board games which you probably know beforehand won't garner that many views. ♡♡

[@toweypat]

Two facts, one fiction: I enjoy Watch It Played videos. This game looks like fun. I am a kangaroo.

[@teejleague3838]

We played that on WiP discord a ton last month!!!

[@PoisonClaw4]

Why don't you enjoy Watch It Played videos, Mr. Kangaroo?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Kangaroos welcome too! :)

[@toweypat]

@@PoisonClaw4 Because my computer won't fit in my pouch.

[@kylesmorgabord5592]

What a great little game! Competitive Wordle but without phones. This one’s an instant buy for family gatherings.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Glad you enjoyed what you saw!

[@johannesmuller6237]

Interesting version of what is, in the end, Mastermind. Though using Letters and words does make the entire thing seems quite a bit more fresh.

[@carlosquintanilla3700]

This is a great game for my kids and wife, and the way you explain it makes it more interesting. Thanks.

[@WatchItPlayed]

So glad you enjoyed it Carlos!

[@henriwhitehead]

Great video! Great pun!

[@benleague3115]

I just heard of this game. Thank you for this. I like word games.

[@WatchItPlayed]

You might enjoy this one then Ben!

[@micronoid]

This game kinda feels like the classic board game Mastermind meets Wordle.

[@WatchItPlayed]

With a traitor element mixed in!

[@FreakinFred08]

Rodney and his wife played a similar game (no traitor mechanism, just pure head-to-head fun) on this channel many moons ago. I don’t remember the name of the game, but I did enjoy watching Mr. and Mrs. Rodney battle it out, and it was done in a series of videos where viewers got to help Rodney out.

[@WatchItPlayed]

@@FreakinFred08 That game was What’s My Word? :)

[@SupahAwsum123]

Hi I'm new to the channel. How do you guys select the games you make How To Play videos on?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Welcome to the channel. Publishers reach out, and if I have an interest in the game I consider covering it if my schedule allows.

[@deezillusioned9909]

These videos are coming left and right!

[@WatchItPlayed]

So many games to discuss!

[@Jimmythejet2000]

Hey Rodney, do you do this full-time or do you have a profession outside of the channel? My friends and I want to know if you are or were a teacher as you're so good at explaining the games.

[@WatchItPlayed]

This is my full time work. Was never a teacher, but it's a compliment that you might have thought so.

[@adrianwoodruff1885]

What I do is give them one final guess, with 1 minute on the timer, and no tokens can be used. But only if I'm feeling sporty.

[@WatchItPlayed]

You're generous :)

[@KnakuanaRka]

I tend to call the tilde a squiggle.

[@WatchItPlayed]

You and me both :) I got a little more formal for the video!

[@ashrael37]

Ordered!

[@WatchItPlayed]

I hope you enjoy playing it! -Chaz

[@sohinipaul8749]

Could you please do a video on how to play azul and how to play call to adventure ?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5XXdaisfrqUbKM&t=342

[@77Spitts]

This game seems like it would be awesome!!! I however can not find it for sale any where, anybody know where to buy it in Canada?

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'm checking to see if I can find any information on this.

[@turtlevader]

It’s only available at B&N atm

[@ThinkGeorgeTait]

@@turtlevader Do you have a link? I can't seem to find it at B&N

[@teejleague3838]

Stranger than fiction??? Nah this is a GREAT teach!!!!!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks Teej :)

[@DStroke666]

So the fact that the words are from novels has nothing to do with the game it's just flavour it ,could also be a card like in just one with guesses or a word I could think about myself?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Yep, sure could!

[@andrewgentry-xg6kf]

It's only at Barnes&Noble.

[@WatchItPlayed]

For now...

[@scottsmartky]

Wears a watch yet holds up a phone for a timer. :p

[@WatchItPlayed]

Fair, lol
