So happy this was a hit for you, Luke! Especially at 2 players. This was my game of most interest from Essen this year and will definitly be looking for it when it makes it to the States. Thanks for checking it out!

You had me at Vincent Du'Trait. Add Ghibli similar add it is instant. Nausicaa is one of my favorite too. Cat Returns is another.

Great review! Thank you. I wasn't really looking out for this game. Hanabi was fine, but limited communication falls fast for me. This, however, sounds like hidden info done right. I'll be watching out for it now.
@TheBrokenMeeple2 жыл бұрын
It's not even really hidden info - you don't need to know what abilities the others have, it's the fact that their hand of cards directly influences what you can, can't and are willing to do.

Excellent stuff Luke, looks interesting, shame it's not got solo but I'm sure someone on BGG will come up with one.
@TheBrokenMeeple2 жыл бұрын
I feel like solo is doable by adapting the 2 player variant, but at most it would be a beat your own score affair - not every game needs a solo.

That for sharing your thoughts on this game, it definitely looks nice with the Ghibli style here, will have to keep my eye out for it! Is there a solo variant?

No solo variant I'm afraid.

Wow 10 out of 10. I’ve been eying this as a guy told me he got it at Essen and put it at the top of my list. What complexity level are you putting this as in terms of a BGG number? Is it Wingspan complexity?

Smooth game, but after few plays, i can say it, 9/10 (nor even 10/10 ? Where's that came from on this game ? :D ) is a way too good of a note here.. let's be honest, once the "hype" passed, this is at max a 8/10 for those who likes being generous at giving high notes :D The major (and maybe only big ?) problem with this game is : The scoring ! As, In the end, it's going to be the one with the highest scoring cards on the left of his play area that will win the game (especially if he put his last village first so he get the +5vp bonus token...) and that's pretty much... it... Coz yeah... we all removed our pollution. we all have our 4 temples... 9 tiles on the board and... Well... you got +5pv coz you trigger the endgame... then you have 4x10pv... Great.. you win and there's nothing we can do of that last turn... ! (not to mention if you had real bad luck along the game) And basically, yeah... it's a racing game... With everything BUT a racing feeling into it... So you don't "Rush/Run/Race" it at all... And there everything that could make a scoring difference become flat as a winter fart... It's a shame, coz the game could have been much better with a better scoring system and more tension into the overall game. Still smooth and relaxing to play, but defenatly colder after a few plays. Cheers from Belgium
@TheBrokenMeeple Жыл бұрын
So the player who won not only finished first but got better objectives, ie did the best in half of the scoring opportunities in the game and won? 🧐 Funny that! I've had games where the triggering player did not win for sure. It has settled a bit on 9, but it still is a great fun tactical game to play.
