Planet Unknown | Great Game, Don't Buy It...For Now

Planet Unknown is great, and this video will tell you why. However, I do not recommend buying it....at least for now. #boardgaming #boardgames #tabletopgaming ‪@AdamsAppleGames‬

Glad to hear your review. This is my newest go to for a gateway game. I play this with first time non gamers, and they love it. Despite the price point, it checks every box for me. Since I already dove and spent money on this game, that hurdles behind me! If you love going up tracks, I recommend more roll/flip n writes. Hadrian's wall, three sisters, and twilight inscription, are full of tracks.

I have a serious roll and write problem. I probably need to make a video on it. No doubt this is quite possibly one of the best gateway games out there.

[@joonasvahasalo6635]

Have to check out your other reviews too. I really liked your style

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Thanks for watching…I have a bunch more on the way too. Welcome aboard!

[@fexro7914]

I really like your channel. You make one of the best board game reviews on KZbin

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Wow that is high praise. I really appreciate the support.

[@ghtddkc]

As always high quality content ! You’re doing good

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Thank you very much. Really appreciate your support!

[@gianfranco4789]

I like everything I hear. What about player count? Good with 2 players?

[@Neon_Gorilla]

I play mostly two players and it’s great. I will say at 2 the depots constantly rotate one spot rather than the rule around each player rotating where they want. I do prefer the latter as it is always a surprise on what you are going to get. Thanks again for watching!

[@Frodo-]

Thank you for the review. I had heard about this game and never dug into it. I had a feeling I would enjoy it. I think you confirmed that I would really like it, but agreed that price point is a bit high for me right now.

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Appreciate you as always!

Great job! I do have this and backed the expansion. When I buy a game I looks at the cost/plays. If I have a game that I paid say $80 that 4 players play 4 x Month my cost is per play is $5, which is way cheaper than say a movie? It's well worth it if the game that will get lots of play.

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Did you add the lid? Yeah cost per plays is a good measure. My biggest gripe is that it borders on a deluxe price and spending $20 more gets you organization upgraded component and a lid that I think should probably be in the $80 version. With that said I will sell this one after a few more plays and be pleasantly surprised next year when my pledge comes in.

Kickstarter is so expensive, I will stick with retail version. I use bubble wrap on top of games to limit movement of pieces, it works in same games. (also there are other solutions as well) Nice video.

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Thanks for watching Greg. Frankly they are both expensive for what they are. I just hate all the stuff floating around the box and jammed in the corners. I did not mention the ungraded components and wonder if they bring anything to the experience.

[@wingman15]

This is my favorite game at the moment. I love it so much and can’t wait to get my Kickstarter version with the cover and expansion.

[@Neon_Gorilla]

The question is did you go with the neoprene mats;) a question I am wrestling with now. Thanks for the sub.

[@thisxboxlife]

@@Neon_GorillaI did not get the neoprene mats. Would love to have them, but storage of them and cost just becomes an issue.

[@Neon_Gorilla]

I love neoprene hate to store it. :(

[@Guinnes1988]

I bought it....and now sold it. Very solitary feeling. Going up the tracks feels good, but after a few games it becomes redundant. Also the asymmetry, at least when combining certain Planets with certain Corps, can be way off. Better game with simultaneous action up to 6 Players: Libertalia

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Thanks for the recommendation, libertalia wasn’t on my radar but I’m now interested.

[@stormburns]

The original KS deluxe was at a great price point, but now it's kind of expensive I'm afraid :(

[@Neon_Gorilla]

Yeah I suppose it is a symptom of broader inflation but a bummer nonetheless.
