This channel is a treasure

[@TotallyTabled]

Ha, that is so nice. Thank you. I'm happy you enjoy the channel.

Nice! As usual with Button Shy Games it’s astounding to see what’s possible with so few cards. Thank you for another great playthrough!

[@TotallyTabled]

Definitely. The puzzle is surprisingly tricky. It won't hold up to constant play, but I will bring this out every once in a while, as a fun, quick, thinky activity. Thanks for watching the playthrough!

I backed this too!! Can’t wait to play it. Great video as always Shaggy

Who is is the man that can turn 18 cards into a fun and entertaining video? SHAGGY is the man!!! Never played a Button Shy game but some of them seem to be really fun. This one is not really my theme but I like the mechanics. Thank you for the video and happy weekend.

[@TotallyTabled]

Thanks! For me these Button Shy games replace crosswords or Sudoku or something like that. Just quick, fun puzzles that I can play late at night or just to kill some time. This one works great for that -- it is so fast and surprisingly puzzly. Thanks for checking out the video!

Huge help. Many thanks.

Aww Shaggy, love your channel. I hadn't heard of this game, I love a puzzle!!

[@TotallyTabled]

That is so nice of you to say, Tracie. I appreciate it. Yeah, if you love a good simple quick puzzle game then I would definitely take a look at this one. It perfectly fits into the Button Shy style. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for sharing the playthrough. I think I am ready for my first game. 😊

[@TotallyTabled]

I hope you enjoy your plays of this game. I really appreciate you watching the video!

I JUST ordered this yesterday during the Black Friday sale. Great minds think alike.

[@TotallyTabled]

Nice! Let us know what you think once you get it tabled. I've enjoyed my plays so far and I'm looking to buy the expansions to explore it further. Thanks so much for watching!

Glad you made a playthrough about this game. I do have a question. When you place a passenger on a car by the effect of another car, do you still have to activate the car’s effect? There is a card(tea) that specifically tells you to activate the new car effect but most don’t.

[@TotallyTabled]

That is a good question. I believe I have done it correctly in the video. The four cars that tell you "NEXT: Place a passenger..." with some restriction -- they are telling you the next action you must take. So you are still taking the place a passenger action and so you resolve the train's special ability. The tea car is giving you an action you need to resolve and so it is clarifying that you active the car. It is confusing, but I believe that anytime you add a passenger to a car you must resolve the special ability. But I could be wrong. Thanks for watching.
