Rajas of the Ganges: Cards & Karma - Playthrough With Friends

[@GettingGames]

CORRECTIONS: 48:31 - Unfortunately, Anastasia's second turn this cycle was skipped.

I love the original Rajas, and this seemed like a great version. Didn't care for the roll and write, but this seems like a game I'd like. Thanks for the video, great as always. Also loved the dog! ;)

[@GettingGames]

I am burned out on roll & writes, so I never payed attention to the Rajas R&W version. I gotta go back to the OG Rajas and see how I like it now (I thought it was fine back when it came out).

I really enjoy games from Inka and Marcus Brand, with Rajas and Village being two of my favourites. They’ve been concentrating on the Exit escape games over the past few years, so it’s nice to see them back in the boardgame scene again, albeit with a variation on one of their originals. Thanks for the video 👍🏼😄

[@GettingGames]

Yeah, I am a fan of their games as well. Also a fan of the more complex Exits, Jessica and I have done tons of those.

[@Mimi-ca]

I love your playthroughs! ❤

[@GettingGames]

Thanks, they are fun to make :)

[@ledbetter10]

Looks neat and I hadn’t heard about this one!

[@GettingGames]

It is certainly flying under the radar right now, hope this gives it more visibility.

I'm excited to try this once my copy arrives. Definitely looks like higher player count is better. Surprised there's not something to wipe a few cards each round when playing 2-player. The OG game is even better with some of the modules that come in the first small expansion called the Goodie Box #1.

[@GettingGames]

After this play, I agree that some extra card wiping would probably be good at 2p. Perhaps the bottom row (if you place cards fully random).

[@jmandaddyo]

I own the other two which I am fantastic at losing at.

[@dansimmons2095]

Same. We should play each other and see who keeps the losing streak.

[@mitchmegaw7201]

Would a house rule of wiping the entire grid when you refill in a two player game help in the variety?

[@GettingGames]

After this play, I agree that some extra card wiping would probably be good at 2p. Perhaps the bottom row (if you place cards fully random) to have it not be such a huge change between rounds.

[@LukeMommaerts]

At 48:30 shouldn't Anastasia had a turn before starting a new round?

[@GettingGames]

Yep, looks like we skipped her turn! I’ve added a correction, thanks for pointing it out.

[@obarreal]

I don't want to spoil anything, so I will just say at 48:30 you skipped a "double" turn by passing turn marker before the other person takes the turn.

[@GettingGames]

Oh no! You are correct, we skipped her second turn that cycle. I’ll add a correction.

[@obarreal]

Thanks for sharing the playthrough, and introducing the game. It's good she logged it as a win 😂. I will be playing OG Rajas of the Ganges, hopefully, next week.

[@GettingGames]

Hehe, yeah she very likely wold have won with another turn. Sure, she wasn't loving the options at that moment and may have just rolled a unuseful die... but still it's a bummer to lose a full turn.
