[@VinegarAndSaltedFries]

Paula got so excited about the Black Eyed Kids reference Erika brought up. I love when Erika is on and Paula is always lovely. Great play through.

[@DevilboyScooby]

I'd recommend people watch Some Lovely Board Games for some really good rounds of this.

[@alltimefalloutatthechemica2106]

God I love that series

[@cals8bon854]

I love this game i’m so excited they are finally playing!

[@nightcatarts]

This seems double skewed against the chameleon since they seemingly have to memorise the entire topic board each time. It'd be better if each player had their own copy of that, I think..

[@Stuffthatsfunny1]

It's just because they are on a massive table, you can easily see it on a normal size table.

[@nightcatarts]

@@Stuffthatsfunny1 Yea I can see that being the case, but for the cost of a few more of those cards it could be made a non-issue on any sized table. Plus anyone with poor eyesight or short term recall is currently at a disadvantage.

[@user-zt8qe5hp1p]

Night Cat yeah but there’s a ton of different topic cards that are all different if there was one for each player the whole box would be full of cards..

[@houknowsnan87]

Take a picture on your phone.

[@nightcatarts]

@@houknowsnan87 That'd work..

[@BrimstonePhenex]

We Do Stuff Podcast did an audio version of this a few months ago it was funny, I can’t wait for them to start doing video.

[@Niinami]

After I watched this video I instantly bought the game online. Going to be really fun playing this with friends and loved ones.

[@aussiechris7616]

I love how excited Paula was about Black Eyed Kids! #deathbymonsters

[@PaulaDeming]

:D

[@Knopey]

I love how Paula and Vince connect their minds like 10 seconds into the show and then never become chameleon. (I guess Vince jinxed them with "We're both the chameleon!")

[@jstuart1980]

Just picked this up on a Black Friday deal and I’m excited to get it to the table after watching this.

[@thebestame3582]

Am I the only one who thought Becca's did make sense even if she had the wrong thing. Children do indeed have eyes 😂

[@Kangstor]

and most of the japanese horror movies actually uses children with strange eyes i have at least two friend with a long black haired small japanese girl phobia because of that :P

[@YoutubeCommenter7402]

Just learned about this game thanks to you and ordered the pictures edition, can't wait to try it out I hope it's as good as the original.

[@stevenmermelstein7806]

Becca , seven dwarves is also an eldraine card and you can have up to 7 in your deck!!!!! Also glass casket

[@LaniGeee]

This group trying to describe lacrosse, kills me.

[@gregputnam7243]

I love this game. I just wish more people would play the mobile version.

[@alltimefalloutatthechemica2106]

Play this again!

[@brandonjackson3408]

When are you going to play Evil Comes Prepared

[@pjparker9015]

I only knew Lacrosse from MTV's Teen Wolf

[@adammartinez8450]

Becca making a MTG reference 😍💙

[@gregputnam7243]

I feel like a good strategy for this game is to not pay attention to what the target is but rather trying to come up with a clue that covers the most things on the card. It is a 4x4 card so there are 16 things. I think you would want to try to say a clue that covers 4, not more than 6 things. If you go for something that is 3 or less, that is too specific. 7 is almost half the card and that is way too broad. I also cannot decide if more people playing is a good thing or a bad thing. If more people are playing, that is more clues for the chameleon. Less people means less clues but then you have to be careful who you vote for which gives the chameleon a higher chance of escaping

[@CharlestonAES]

I was thinking soreness for Lacrosse was really good because I've seen people use Lacrosse balls specifically for trigger point massage... I would have been fooled

[@soccerguyryan]

Also getting whacked with Lacrosse sticks seems more painful than anything in most of the other sports.

[@geoforteangaming]

Hey Paula, don't Black Eyed Kids feature on an episode of your excellent podcast, Death By Monsters, available wherever you get your podcasts?

[@rpriske]

Glass Casket was a key card in my Throne of Eldraine draft this evening. /nerd

[@gregputnam7243]

What is the sport: "Squash"? I think I can say I have never heard of that sport but maybe I know it by a different name.

[@Project_Lies]

MISSOURI! Ya shout out!

[@usererror4716]

Paula is so cute. What a fun game though.

[@Maeyanie]

Children, snakes, same thing. :D

[@Link-ji7kx]

So what happens if the Chameleon goes first? Or how do you prevent this?

[@ruchick6155]

Good luck to them

[@treyerny3140]

For the last round, I would have said Corn. "Children of the corn"

[@KannibalBeats]

Although a great reference, that's a bit too speicific tho because corn doesn't relate to anything else on the card (except for maybe birds?) so it'd be easy for the Chameleon to guess the word after

[@duckman896]

Listening to them try to explain Lacrosse is so painful

[@B2EMO]

Becca's clue was accidentally a perfect Village of the Damned reference!

[@MissCristinaLee]

That is EXACTLY what I was thinking lol

[@brookecain6029]

For eagle I would have done traditional normally it’s an American traditional tattoo style

[@garrywiltson6161]

chameleon is a good game, but what are the chances of rolling the same dice 2 in a row? 1/48. it's not that many. like the 1 and 2 they rolled 4/4 and 4/5 imma overrule the cheat card and make some new cheat card.

[@GinaBrittCo]

Don’t you keep the topic card in the middle so everyone can see it at once?

[@michaeljohnson9916]

Becca, surely you've heard of the 'Millennials are ruining snakes' meme?

[@Morgan.27]

As a lacrosse player I am personally offended lol 😂

[@KannibalBeats]

These players aren't.....great. At 13:34 she literally explains why her own answer is terrible but still doesn't get it and nobody at the table explains to her why it's a bad idea to give a super generic answer

[@Panquernic]

With Lacrosse I would've said Church

[@geoforteangaming]

That's French Church :)

[@andrewmorris8650]

To those who have never played or heard of lacrosse, it is a (mainly east coast) sport based on shooting a white rubber ball into a roughly square shaped net. There is 1 goalie, 3 defense, 3 midfielders, and three offense for each team on the the field at any one time. There are usually 2 halves of 4 quarters in a game. The goal is to score as many goals as possible within one hour. Lacrosse is an extremely fun game that really doesn’t get as much love I personally think it should.

[@DevilboyScooby]

I thought for "eyes" Becca mightve meant children have the same eyes as their parents...but that's a real stretch. Then when she said "make it singular" I thought she was going for "I" as in "I was a child". In reality, she just fucked up 😂

[@Baex21]

Saw Paula and put my Tardis in Warp Drive.

[@EthalaRide]

They linked Eagles to Native Americans, but not Lacrosse, a sport invented (or at least the early concept of it) by Native Americans?

[@333pinkelephant333]

One of them didn't even know what it was and the others seemed like they were only vaguely familiar with it. History of Lacrosse isn't exactly something I'd expect everyone to be familiar with anyways.

[@williamgunderson3002]

I'm a little surprised no one said Stepmother for the fairy tale round.

[@ChamelionK]

Probably depends on the version of the story that they know of; in this case they were thinking of the Disney version, where Snow White had no family relation to the Queen.

[@williamgunderson3002]

@@ChamelionK Everything I find says that the Evil Queen was her stepmother even in the Disney version

[@auroradragen5920]

You guys should play Risk Legacy

[@gregputnam7243]

"Eyes but make it singular." Okay so "i" technically works because "children" is the only clue on that card with a lowercase "i". Still that is a stretch.

[@mahranislam3554]

*Spiders, Birds, and Toilets would like to know your location*

[@FuryousD]

if someone had photographic memory they would win this game every time regardless since they would always know the topic

[@DevilboyScooby]

I was thinking this

[@nickthegazerofsouls]

How would they know the topic just because they memorized the card? It would be a help no doubt, but I can't see it being an end-all

[@apocalypticfarce413]

Children of The Corn

[@CrashSable]

They'll play this and not Sparkle Kitty? Come on... it would be an amazing episode of Game the Game. So funny.

[@jamiekindahl2640]

Millennials are people their age, not children, I’m so confused and disappointed

[@Ilcka]

between 24 and 38 are millennials =)

[@Inesulka1]

millennials is because more millennials "don't like" or don't want to have children than prior generations :) Like he wasn't saying they ARE the millennials, it's just that phobia is associated with that generation

[@harryvibes166]

4:56 Bruh that girl is so stupid, but if she were smart, she coulda said animal, sheep, white. By making it realistic, they cannot tell who the chameleon wouldve been... Good thing she went last, she even knew what the damn word was, but still manages to fail smh.

[@YoutubeCommenter7402]

Not sure what you mean by "still manages to fail", she guessed the word correctly so she won that round. She also won the televised portion.

[@rumizuums]

[@justintimeleave1360]

the dude is so bad at this game

[@KannibalBeats]

Honestly they all weren't great

[@ProfSeehank]

Oh god, Erika is too pretty :-O

[@blakebush7661]

They are bad at this

[@jackfromage8780]

Well.. that doesn't guive a good Idea of the game.. Erika was terrible and she win. I wanted to buy it, but not anymore..

[@KannibalBeats]

It's a great game -- these players didn't really understand how to play tbh

[@jbuey2390]

Golf requires you to walk several miles wile holding a lot of weight. So yes you get sore lol

[@droppedelbow]

Is there something wrong with the bloke? Medically?

[@alltimefalloutatthechemica2106]

Play this again!
