On a Scale of One to T-Rex board game playthrough - Let's Play On a Scale of One to T-Rex

[@rufusglyn8568]

Wheels did not look like he wanted this, but ended strong. Johnny on the other hand hated this with a passion, which was hillarious.

[@holywarriorbear7720]

Well. IMO there's very little "game" in this one. There are plenty of party games that have more mechanics and are generally a lot more fun to play

[@HMJ66]

@@holywarriorbear7720 so pretty much the same as all of the oatmeal's games?

[@devlinburgess2463]

The sight of Wheels screaming at his fingers like they're a Lovecraftian Elder God will definitely stay with me.

[@tiberious1581]

I love how much Johnny hated it. Gave up started saying the number, no one noticed and you saw him die inside a little.

[@Bigal3031]

Johnny the most down to earth person trying to be super intense

[@mar_speedman]

"Kissing, kissing! I'd really like to be *kissing!"* XD

Update: I just realized the b in breaker has a dice shape.

Oh....my....god 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 That's seriously amazing.

[@alexixeno4223]

did you also notice the D is also a B? honestly it's a perfect logo for the channel

[@spunoffsee]

I can only imagine the confusion in the offices adjacent that day as Johnny started yelling "MY LOVELY HAIR", Lollies started yelling about push ups, and Wheels began RAWRING...

[@kaushtubhchauhan]

Or Johnny mooing and insisting that it's a kissing sound

[@nickdejager8873]

I love that Johnny somehow equated 'act as a T-Rex' to 'sing the Jurassic Park theme'

[@brentage5000]

Right? Especially since it was obviously the brachiosaurs that sang that.

[@dishonoredhero2763]

well, he wasn't exactly enthusiastic about the game and the others did still get it so I have a feeling that he just didn't want to rawr at a high intensity

[@caelreth]

I think Alex is onto something with her “guess the action” idea, but I think you should also be performing 3 actions at once. Surely a French T-Rex trying to hail a cab has some comedy mileage?

[@Binary-]

Seems like it'd be better suited for a bigger group, but it's worth the watch just for the times Johnny was meant to be intense and he just sounded hella sarcastic instead. Loved it

[@Amaritudine]

9:55 "I love you guys kissing!" - Alex Lolies, contender for 2020's 'Quote That is Most Reliant on Context' award. Sometimes a game can fall flat with one group of players, but sparkle when different people have a go. I've had this experience playing One Night Werewolf and Chez Geek over the last year. The preferences or comfort levels of individual players can make all the difference, especially when humour or performance are involved. That said, On a Scale of One to T-Rex could just be one of those games that'd struggle to keep anyone captivated in the long run.

[@tabbycat2452]

I like how Johnny only slightly perked up when he had to pretend to be French.

[@OddlyAutumn]

Your timing is impeccable. Co-worker brought this game to a team potluck on Monday and, after the description, pretty much the entire team noped it at a Johnny / Johnny.

[@seagreen42]

It's nice to see a negative review, honest opinions are important. Also ya, watching Johnny hate something is wonderful.

[@WillSawyer17]

This game looks quite horrendous but watching this video was worth it just to hear Lollies go “O H Y E A H” while Johnny and Wheels looked utterly defeated. Might I suggest Dobble as an alternative party game which is a super quick and super simple card game. I played it a bunch with my friends over Christmas and it’s fun, chaotic and highly replayable!

[@marcusdesai506]

I'm a drama kid and this still looks like hell!

[@linorn]

I think Johnny confused level of intensity with level of sarcasm

[@laterkater4213]

Hoola hooping with varying levels of intensity is already my favourite thing you guys have done all year. 😂

[@RedSuitcase22]

I keep coming back at this just to watch Johnny as he slowly dies inside. I cannot stop laughing - love you guys!

[@fuzzyaziraphale4228]

It was entertaining watching you all goofing around especially the T rex impressions and thanks for demonstrating this game. It's definitely looks like the type of game I woulld really not enjoy.

[@PrincessWhoosh]

I think this is just one of those games that has a catchy sounding premise that lures a wide audience of people in, but in practice it doesn't really hold up or even really work.

[@kaushtubhchauhan]

The despair on the face of wheels at the start😆😆😆 Looks like this one will be pretty funny Edit- ok that was hilariously bad..looks fun to watch for outsiders but not for people playing it

[@merepseu]

Lolies seeing T-Rex on the table and an 8 in her hand was probably the one point anyone enjoyed it.

[@kaushtubhchauhan]

@@merepseu I enjoyed johnny mooing while insisting that it is a kissing sound

[@merepseu]

​@@kaushtubhchauhan To be clear, I did mean anyone who was playing it. I appreciated Johnny's dynamic range of total disinterest.

[@elafimilo8199]

I think it looks like amazing fun. It reminds me of Quelf.

[@alexixeno4223]

seems like it would be good for improv groups. like as a quick warm up exercise

[@Ducky441]

This is such a great video for just tuning out to and then coming back in at random moments especially johnny's kissing noises

[@laerr]

I legitimately have no idea what's going on, but I do know, whatever it is, Johnny hates it.

[@InfelixSoror]

So just how well is the studio soundproofed? Well enough to save the last remaining shred of Dicebreaker dignity from the rest of the office, or will there be an imminent meeting with HR?

[@Aphiraful]

Theatre teacher here. This game may be awkward for adults to play a parties.... But if you have a large group of 7-10 year olds it amazing. And a theatre lesson or two packed in as well ;)

[@davidleonardflanagan]

This reminds me a little of scales of tension exercises in drama 😅😅

[@kate1361]

absolutely can not deal with Johnnys complete lack of intensity 😂 amazing

[@TransGuyShane]

I couldnt stop laughing at low level sandwich eating johnny did lol. Not related but - I recently went to a local boardgames cafe with my sister and played a game of "brain colour disney" which was really fun and i would suggest it for any disney fans. We also played "junk art" which was pretty anxiety causing but also a huge amount of fun lol.

[@lordpheonix1059]

I feel like this video explains some of the weird noises heard in the back ground of the recent eurogamer stream lol

[@Sheldon1985]

It was fun to watch you guys play it, but I probably wouldn't play it myself.

[@zanite8650]

I love the music intros to these vids.

[@Steinsbeck]

Gotta say I love this game just for this video. Thank You.

[@gingergamer3270]

It's sad because Lollies looks like she really liked it. She looked disappointed that Johnny disliked it. But his points during the review made more sense.

[@theakri1]

Can't believe I bought this game, before watching this video...😔 Thank you guys for the explanation!

[@shawnheatherly]

As someone who enjoys Exploding Kittens with the right group of friends, I'm pretty underwhelmed by this. It's a fine idea, it just doesn't seem executed in a fun manner at all.

[@auburnhairedgamer279]

I do think there is more in Lollies' suggestion on how they should play this game, than it just now being charades. But, maybe that's only to do with the game's physical media and scoring rather than, how it is played.

[@camerontgore]

True, I found it quite entertaining to watch!

[@illustratedjill6914]

I am here for Johnny's unadulterated love for this game 😆😆😆

[@sampeters5589]

Quiet fives a T-Rex is roaring!

[@DrakeAurum]

Yes, it was amusing to watch from afar.

[@razorkid472]

This is the most insane thing I've ever witnessed 😂

[@GenLiu]

You can tell Johnny hated tthe game long before it ended lol That was the intensity issue, it's not that he doesn't understand intensity, it's the fact that he's just not having fun. I feel like even if you like the overall concept of the game, there is a lot of design issues here. The easiest example would be fact that everything is essenially determined by RNG. It doesn't matter how well you can play an intensity level, if the oher players keep drawing scores that don't match yours, you're up for a ride of doing the same hing like an idiot while the other players are just scoring tons of points.

[@janekotoole8751]

Give it a few more players and a few rounds of shuts this would be well fun. One for the next Gamer Network Christmas party.

[@davidmorris6707]

I need this game!!!

[@NexusTenebrare]

Boo! to Johnny and Wheels hating on CAH.

[@Nightsong001]

I've played cards against humanity with a group over discord and had a great time. I think it works better for people who can't get together physically and want to play a silly game and have a lot of laughs.

[@holywarriorbear7720]

I do hope this wasn't a million buck Kickstarter campaign too....

[@abydosianchulac2]

I've never seen a game cause its players to lose the will to live that quickly. Not since Risk, at least.

[@Gooch359]

Well, that was alot of noise lol

[@theheroofkvatch8370]

bloody love a downer review, so funny

[@codmanout9861]

So i assume that this video drained Johnny of almost all of his intensity, so the next couple videos he's is will probably be rather subdued.

[@thetasworld]

There is a forgotten board game called "freeze" that does all this in a much more elegant way boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/76728/freeze Also... 16:32

[@aleaf01]

I like CAH.... like I love risk articulate etc like normal board games but I just enjoy being stupid. But I am 18 soo

[@danivoi]

Without context this would be so funny

[@Steinsbeck]

Like Cards Against Humanity you have to be very good at judging other people and how they react to situations. I do feel that further expansions could make this much better. I am disappointed at how few of the swap cards are in the starting game.

[@misterthegeoff9767]

Cards Against Humanity I found enjoyable first time round but once you've seen all the cards it gets stale pretty quickly. This looks like it started off terrible and was only going to get worse

[@hlucas8550]

Yep this game might be fun for the right group of 7 to 10 year olds. Watching johnny and wheels cringe their way through this was funny

[@weronikamatczuk8642]

I would like to differ, team dicebreaker all have wonderfully sexy hair

[@TheDanaAddams]

I don't think I've seen anyone have less fun playing a game than Johnny playing this. Feels like a game for loud extroverts who love making noise and looking silly.

Do you ever shout out smaller board game channels or no?

This looks dreadful. It’s rare to see a game get that level of critical panning after a let’s play, that’s for sure.

[@DreadWulfie]

I just got more and more confused the longer I watched.

[@chapmau]

this game would be better for kids

[@charlesmoss1985]

That settles it: we must have a video with Lolies doing t-rex noises and Ellen doing goose honks. That can honestly be the entire premise.

[@Lordpooz09]

Ok.... everyone get extremely drunk & play another round? Please? No? But it'd be funny!

[@laowu830]

[@Zeeeemonolith]

I think playing this would get old really quick, watching drunk people play it? I think there's more appeal in it there, but barely.
