Received my copy this week! So excited to play!

[@JonLeung1]

Great video, but I feel like the gameplay footage should have been rotated 180 degrees, so that your hands are on the bottom for a more first-person view, and the whole play area wouldn't be upside-down...

[@kirkbuckendorf2087]

I did try it that way, but the angle made it feel like you were standing on your head :D So... I've learned that I need to have the phone stand on My side of the table, no matter how awkward that is to reach and see around, unless I can get it high enough to do a true top down :D

[@JonLeung1]

@@kirkbuckendorf2087 I merely meant rotating the video image after the fact. You can still have recorded it the same way you did here. I rotated the video myself, and it looks fine. There's a bit of a perspective/angle thing going on, sure, but it's minor and still much more watchable than seeing it upside-down! Just a suggestion for if there is a next time. Anyway, I find it funny that Josh Wood's story is the same as mine... I ALSO planned to go to Japan in April 2020, but world events changed that, and I've been doing so much more research about Japan ever since!

The way I do it is to use a stand with an extension on it so it hangs over the top, or to place the stand to the left of where I'm sitting so it just shows the table

Hello, I'm Kirk from AEG!

[@AkmalGameAtion]

Just received my copy!! Its my current favorite game to teach new players!

[@crimsonraen]

Thanks for the video! Just got my copy yesterday, and looking forward to playng! :D

[@AdelheidZimmerman]

I'm super excited for this game

[@floydandtotoro]

great vid, thanks!

[@hadiwinatakuo1884]

do I have to rotate my screen upside down or do I have to watch this while doing a handstand?

[@furballgaming5913]

Great video, a lil bit annoying the video was upside down, would be better to do the video as a pov. I am still unsure, it feels a bit too lite for my gaming needs. However I do like the idea of the mechanics.

[@Peter-gz3we]

It's unfortunate that the official AEG video is upside down and that it still wasn't fixed during the year that it started on kickstarter to when it was released

[@seniorwatashi]

Hi Kirk! :D

[@TraderJoex]

I need this in german 😢

[@patatedestenebres]

This is because of that that I hate you (no, in fact, I don't like you, but my banker hates you)! You always offer different games that make me want, despite my pious wishes to limit my collection to 50 games! Thank you for the explanations, because obviously, I participate in crowdfunding!

[@kringshot]

Why on earth did you think it was a good idea to have it all upside down lol

[@frankrobinson2400]

*promo sm*

[@ThaMaStA15]

I really want to like this game, but i dont see why this would be addicting

[@leoesu]

Just a suggestion, but the pace of this video is WAY TOO FAST, I would suggest watching Rodney Smith so you can work on your pace for next time. Also, the components should be facing the viewer, not the rules explainer.
