Origins 2023 Hall Tour - First Day Look Behind The Scenes!

[@BrownCastleGames]

Thanks for the shout out Meg and Alex! So sorry we missed you during the set up. Meg , you would like our variation- Crokinole Imperium. It has objectives, secret abilities and global rule changes :)

[@BoardGameCo]

I saw the next day you actually had a blue, orange and white swirl!

[@RoomandBoardReviews]

Can't believe you wouldn't let me onscreen :( I was chasing you from behind the camera the whole time, but Meg would VIOLENTLY shove me out of frame when I tried to get in!!!

[@BoardGameCo]

Weird, if you were chasing us the whole time, I would have assumed you would have interrupted us much earlier based on how badly we were talking about you.

[@JonTripp115]

RIP Alex, murdered for using the wrong clip.

[@r.l.jeffries1091]

Wow $250 for those crokinole boards is a pretty good price indeed.

[@GamingwithSidekicks1]

It was great to see you!

[@BoardGameCo]

Until next time :)

[@Bonzoso21]

This Origins was my first board game convention, and I had a great time! I enjoyed fiddling with those acrylic Castles of Burgundy tiles in the Gamefound booth while I await fulfillment, snagged a few new games and some art, and got to sit down with one of the designers for a demo of the upcoming Galactic Cruise which looks promising.

I finally made it to origins for the first time! I played a lot of cool games! Spent tons of money! Won a game from futulla, painted my first miniature, created my first mini scenery, and met tons of cool people!

[@srebme2]

2:57 I’m really sad that Camp Co-op is no more. Alex’s throat is slit and Meg is in jail.

[@BoardGameCo]

I got away wounded...but yes, Meg is in jail.

[@Vital_Velocity]

Was there a prototype for Robot Quest Arena there? Saw it was advertised on the lanyards.

[@acedaryl2]

I think that pup was Churro. He's a Service dog in training and is a very good boy.

[@BoardGameCo]

Yes!

[@zarathudoo]

Thanks for the tour of the hall, I'm stuck working this week otherwise I'd be there hoping to say hello in person!

[@Phlanx06]

yay i made the video :)

[@Torkeep]

One of these years, I must travel from Down Under to visit one of these conventions. They look amazing!

[@jamessullivan5168]

"I saw you on this video this morning..." Many thanks for posting something for those of us not going to Origins. Sooo much fun stuff there!

[@PSG_gammagoat]

So THAT'S who switched my wood and stone cube! I was wondering why my After the Empire setup was different!

[@ogunquit5]

Honestly, if Browncastle games just did a blue resin board, I would be all over that. Saw the one the DT got and I loved the colors - not a fan of the logos on it but the colors blew me away.

[@BrownCastleGames]

We do all our line painting in-house so we can make it however you want - with or without any logo. Just let us know your preference 👍👍

[@kcatton9734]

such an entertaining video. thank you!

[@GiantSherman]

Nemesis Lockdown is created by Awaken Realms, designed by Adam Kwapiński :D

[@chadstilson8804]

Love how Alex says "Volcanoooos" :D

[@lamfgames]

"Like volcanoes" -Professor Meg, 2023

[@1AngelAlita]

Whoa, professor Meg is so cute! 😍

[@aeryellae5837]

Was that Wes in the background at 2:50? =D

[@BoardGameCo]

Good catch!

[@Lycaon1765]

Hello Alex, is your convention actually happening? Your website doesn't link to any specific hotel and when they are called they say you don't exist. Did anyone who signed up for the included hotel reservation option and actually get a booking confirmed by the hotel?

[@BoardGameCo]

Not sure what that means? The convention is definitely happening

[@stacie_everdell]

I just played Space Explorers yesterday. Playing more today. I can bring it to Level Up if you like, with the new expansions which has sooooo much stuff!

[@teaNgames]

I love your pre-convention walkthroughs🎉 So much fun!🎉

[@Flip5ide]

Love wondering towers! It's a fun game!

[@BryceChristiansen]

Camp coop represent

[@ScytheNoire]

I would love to go one year. I dread the amount I would spend.

[@Sl1vers]

You know, when you get the new Crokinole board, you could give Prof Meg your old Crokinole board ... just say'n. I mean, if she doesn't use it for Crokinole it could be the world's largest dice tray for playing Final Girl :D

[@frankmumann8624]

I'm just waiting for Essen.

[@nakanoFIN]

Be careful there Alex with a mega fan Meg! It started well and fun, but soon developed into a darker tone. I look forward to hear your thoughts about Witcher if the game lived up to the original positive hype. Will get my copy next week.

[@seansmith2650]

Oh my god i hope they have unbreakable by the time i get there at 4!!!!

[@joncarr5545]

Super fun video that gave a great tour. Alex-Meg duo is always fantastic. Meg's little gremlin tricks and chuckles made me laugh. Thanks for this!

[@theenthusiast4218]

I'll be there tomorrow when doors open.

[@louisnemzer6801]

Columbus! Whoo!

[@timf7354]

15:30 Please give the gnomes a piece of your clothing so they will be free! Even a sock will work. You dont need 2 socks...

[@1AngelAlita]

I assume Mythic Games and Blacklist Games are no show.. ;)

[@BoardGameCo]

Nope

[@freeheeler00]

Are there people who advocate for those gnomes? #gnomeworkerrights

[@BatisteBieler]

Hello BoardGameCo, I am designing I game I would love for you to review. Interested?

[@BoardGameCo]

Shoot me an email, my email is on the bottom of every video :)
