I really like the way the opening statement about the premise of the game plays in today's society.

[@GamingRulesVideos]

Much better than my official rules video! Thanks for doing this :)

[@WanderingLunatic]

You made so many mistakes in yours.

[@GamingRulesVideos]

I know! Maybe I should have read the instruction manual!

[@veerchasm1]

I agree! (No irony)

[@ClaudeAndTaylor]

Millionaire - Teacher. HAHA amazing video again!! Keep up the hilarious work!!

[@Elheru42]

As a teacher I approve.

[@user-mi6dj7kc5u]

Taylor Reiner that is not how you play!

[@MyNameIsKnarf]

This is my favorite board game video of all time I think...and that's above all videos from reviewers praising one of our games.

[@atherisentertainment2208]

True. This is amazing.

[@GuzForster]

How did I not know about this channel?! This is gold. I’m cracking up with every video!

[@Hanc_vrbata]

Lol, ok, didn't expect that. I will play the game correctly from now on.

[@joelkarpowitz9872]

Amazing. All in all, looks like a blast to play.

[@luckydodo8025]

Can't wait for the next video! I always miss a rule when I'm first learning games, your channel helps sooooo much!

[@wh3elson]

Top tier boardgame channel

[@dofalol]

This game sounds phenomenal, I'm definitely going to try it out and send mean tweets to the designer, complaining how offensive it is.

[@esc120]

MILLIONAIRE TEACHER

[@back2b]

Love this!

[@mark_midmark]

This is brilliant!

[@LikelyStoryProductions]

SO GOOD!

[@orenluzzatto6784]

Hilarious, can't wait to play with these rules

[@GClubChannel]

I knew I was taught to play this wrong! Thank you for your service!

[@gametrolltv]

OMG this is so good. Great work!

[@goeshi]

This is gold.

[@TheDragonsTomb]

I think you are thinking of the "Codenames Duet" version, which won a Golden Geek award for being the best 2 player game of 2017?

[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

I'm Here because Vlaada is amazing, and Shut Up Sit Down recommended I subscribe.

[@Nothanka]

The rules in this video are much better than the official rules! I hate Codenames with the official rules...

[@andymcguire237]

These videos work on two levels: the comedic genius and the comments generated by people who don't know it's all a bit.

[@googleruinedyoutube4707]

I don't know how those people could possibly not get it. It must be some form of super trolling.

[@veronicaparato5457]

I want to play this game.

[@wei-hwahuang3833]

The superhuman tile has a male and a female side. What is the female side for?

[@Thee_Chris]

I imagine the government can turn the superhuman to female as well.

[@Tormyst]

Well, I have been playing this game all wrong.

[@vafanvaniejobbia]

True. WHOEVER came up with these rules should feel ashamed. Love your work, though!

[@JaniceB1217]

I feel like I played by just listening

[@aerickw]

I almost sent this as a legit 'How to Play' video to someone trying to learn how to play! LOL!

[@veerchasm1]

Screw Dice Tower, this is better! 😂 Teacher/Millionaire 😄

[@michaelteague4839]

Millionaire/teacher would be funnier if I didn't live in Oklahoma. Still laughed out loud, though.

[@achromatic03]

omg, I thought this was an april fools thing at first lol

[@Tuminure]

I've played this yesterday but I still don't know if I get money for walking into a Free Parking in this game.

[@DrMcFly28]

So.. this is a boardgame version of Ocean's 8 then?

[@OriginalPiMan]

More like Ghostbusters. From what little I've seen, Ocean's 8 looks like it might actually be decent.

[@Ronaldyongky]

This is different to the original rule

[@TheDragonsTomb]

Ronaldy Ongky - These are the original rules! Thanks for watching!

[@OriginalPiMan]

(ignoring The Dragon's Tomb's dedication to his shtick for a bit, give these rules a go. It might be fun, but you'll have to find some fair way to decide if two cards are actually "opposites")

[@omaralsaadi2734]

Not the real rules, these are the real rules: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIK5eZ6ibdSEe7c

[@user-mi6dj7kc5u]

“The game insensible to women” because you are playing it wrong,check the rule book

[@dantdmy823]

Bro, chill it's sarcasm lol!

[@levia.3846]

This isn't how you play! Did you even read the rules?

[@Tentega]

What the hell? Why is this version of “how to play” so much different than literally every single other video?

[@Tentega]

Watch the Rules Girls tutorial, or literally any other one. I have no clue where these rules came from.

[@mikolajwitkowski8093]

Were you really not in on the joke?

[@mattvuturo]

That is not even close to how you really play! Did you even read the instructions?

[@TheDragonsTomb]

Hi Matt! This is how the game is played.

[@hornext4937]

Who came up with this way to play? It's not even the correct way.

[@kaysannoorani884]

plz stop doing this
