Quacks of Quedlinburg - Shut Up & Sit Down Review

[@derhair6372]

I actually bought the game last year in Quedlinburg to proof my girlfriend I dont just by Games that are covered by SU&SD and here we are.

Billy Matrix is my second favorite movie character behind Johnny Starwars. He was just so cool swinging that Laser knife at Daddy Hard Hat.

[@thelaughingman4791]

From DiceTower News regarding the expansion: Kräuterhexen adds a much requested fifth player to the game, as well as higher value pumpkins, new ingredients such as the variable value “fool’s herb”, and the ability to request help from the witches. Players are given 3 Witch’s Pennies, which are worth points at the end of the game, but can be spent to get special powers, such as the ability to drink a potion after blowing up the cauldron, or reducing the drop advance price to a single ruby.

Hey don't talk to Mel like that

[@robertchmielecki2580]

Excellent as always and a pleasure to watch :) Thanks! But do I recall correctly that most (all) recent reviews were of lighter/more accessible/family type games ? Maybe it's time for some heavier stuff to really sink your teeth into, hmmmm :3 ? Btw, are you planning to review Monsterpocalypse, maybe? As a Warmachine fan I'm looking at it with interest, but for some reason it doesn't get much attention from mainstream reviewers online. Even Dice Tower doesn't have a review of MonPoc, even though the game is made in the US.

[@Healermain15]

I think Marv has a good point here.

[@WizarDru]

I'm with Mark and Mitch on this one. It is rapidly becoming one of my favorite games. Quick, accessible, colorful, engaging, funny and variable. The expansion is a must-buy, AFAIC. It's just straight-up delightful. I've only had it a few weeks and I've already played it four times (and am eager to play it more). Plays just as well with 2 as it does with 4.

[@aberaigne]

The Wii e-shop music is a nice touch. especially since this video was dropped on the same day that the wii e-shop has been shut down... Nice.

"scrawny beanpoles sweating under a bench-press" I feel attacked

[@stevencairns277]

The commitment in this video from Matt and the paint bomb takes this to another level!

[@UnreasonableOpinions]

The best part about the game is how well it balances out different levels of play and attitudes. Keeping most of the strategy in the planning steps and letting the get-points part be where much of the randomness is means once you get the very simple rules there's not the usual execution tax of avoiding screwing up complex rules, there's just whether or not you push your luck once you're one bad draw from exploding. People from barely-plays-games to TI4-is-too-light and seriousness from class-clown to tryhard can all play the same game, and even if the latter usually win, the former are entirely capable of pulling one off.

[@shutupandsitdown]

Well said! That's one of the biggest reasons why we like it so much and still recommend it so often.

[@TheManofDew]

Wow. Guys you did a great job on this one. So many gags and great lines. Fantastic production. 😃👍👍

Appreciate the love and hard work you put into each video. Always fun, always informative. A brilliant public service guys. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@immortalsun]

This review convinced me to buy this game I just now heard about in your review of Taverns of Tiefenthal. Can’t wait to play it!

[@BeingFriends]

I got to try this one for the first time last night and I LOVED IT!! I also did terrible !! Or I thought I did. Later I found out, that I started with an extra 1 and 2 cherry bombs in my bag... I was always wondering why I consistently did worse haha! Plus I was always making decisions based on completely incorrect improbabilities. Even with that terrible handicap, I had an absolute blast. Great game.

[@eomat]

Absolutely amazing review. Great game and had a laugh watching this.

[@bearhustler]

I need to hear more from Wizarding Harry, that kid is going places. (my son and I can't stop impersonating him at each other, it's the only fun left to us until Quedlinburg is back in stock so we can buy it).

Here for the Wii Shop Channel music, and the straight up truth about the British dining experience

[@saxman7575]

I was listening to NPR in the car this morning (U.S. public radio) and they used the Wii Shop music as a bump behind some random station ID message, then I heard it again when I watched this video after work. Glad to remember why that tune is so nostalgic.

[@drzerogi]

I witnessed this once when I vacationed in the UK a couple years ago. Took me by surprise.

Is the sound FX on 3:15 the sound from the «The Search For Planet X» app when one of your theories are proven correct?

My friend brought this over and whith 3kids running around I was was like. "dude this is far to complicated to play at the same time as intermitant midgit wrangerling". But after turn two even my then 7year old had picked up the game. It was ace and the "oh I get it" factor kicks in pritty quik considering the style of game. 👍From me.

[@MmgamingNet]

Loved playing Quacks after getting it for Christmas so this was rather validating.

[@maxducoudray]

PSA: pulling simultaneously and possibly revealing an empty hand is only done on the final round of the game. Earlier rounds are unsynchronized simultaneity, with players drawing, placing and stopping at their own pace.

[@gomezthechimp1116]

The rules state you can pull and reveal simultaneously throughout the game if you wish.

[@FortunaDtown]

Pull and reveal simultaneously is the better way to play in my opinion.

[@Kajotex]

I played QoQ two times now and both times I did not enjoy the experience. Either everything goes perfect the entire game and you don't explode once, or you explode once and either your engine suffers or your points. I hate games that can be entirely lost by just bad draws, and when you get 6 rat points in a round because you are so far behind, but also the first 4 draws contain 3 cherrybombs, you are just in despair valley. There is nothing you can do, meanwhile the leader goes two times around the swirl. This happend in BOTH games. Same with the bonus die. Last game i played, the point-leader (wo didn't blow his cauldron once but also achieved to draw roughly 70% of his ingredient bag every round) rolled a drop advance every other round. Meanwhile I rolled it once and other wise maybe a point or a ruby. That drop advance is by far the best result on that die, and you can just get bad luck and march right back into despair valley. It is very entertaining if everything is relatively even between the players. But both games I have seen a run away leader. In the end, it just made me feel bad and I did not have fun, I'd say of the 6 people I played with, 3 to 4 shared my feelings. So glad I did not buy this.

[@benjaminmeusburger4254]

I was more confused about "Bill in Matrix" ...

[@amcieks]

Ah, but that’s because we’re used to say William.

[@Mcguyver020]

Kind of older now but I've played this a handful of times and a couple of the times I've found one player has been behind in the score and even with the rat tail bonus it's meant that they are super behind and when there's stll 2-3 rounds to go they felt like there wasn't much point to continue playing as they had NO chance whatsoever to catch up. So it seems like an unlucky 2 round streak can just severely inhibit the entire rest of the game. Albeit the earlier rounds scores get so completely outmatched in the later rounds too there's almost no reason to take the points, but then gambling wrong can just lead back to what I was writing about before. So it's soured how I feel on the game overall.

[@philipthonemann2524]

[@landsealion]

It really is a great game. I've played with lots of different players and everyone loved it. The one issue I have with it is that it seems really difficult to catch up. The tails don't really make up for a 5-6 points difference.

Update: Still not 100% sure how much this game is supposed to cost but I think MSRP is in the 50 dollar range. I just got outbid for a copy on Ebay, people are paying north of $60 for a used copy. The new one on Amazon is like $160 which is insane! I guess I have to keep waiting... *sigh
