Just got this game yesterday and it's super fun! Though I do have a note on 15:17 - it says in the German rules that a player gets 1 Gem per 3 damage to the boss; which equates to 3 points per 3 damage. So the English rulebook has that kind of going for it. :)
@axétério Жыл бұрын
Pardon my nitpick, so which is correct: 3pts per 3 dmg (a set of 3 individual boxes) to the boss like in the English 1st Ed rule book OR 1pt per 3 dmg to the boss as in this video?

Nicely done how-to, dear sir! 😺 And that trick with box cover in the end was magnificent! How long you've trained? :) I can't understand if my Rulebook is 1st edition or newer (I think it's Version > 1, but not sure). So, I have several unclear to me points though (even after reading the rules and watching your video), so, please, explain to me following: 1. Rules say "Unless a Passive player chooses to play a Black Dice ability, the Active player alone may choose to use the rolled Black die as a part of a pair." I thought that if a Passive player chooses to use Black Dice ability, no one else except him alone can use Black Dice this round. Am I wrong? 2. Can player cross out boxes in both Start spaces? I thought that player should go from only one Start spaces. 3. I didn't see in rules any notion that when players use Monster's room numbers, they must cross only 1 box, so I supposed that they must cross as many boxes as the sum of dice pair they use. Or it's incorrect understanding? 4. I can conclude from your words that only first player who killed the Boss, gain 6 Gems reward, and others don't. But I didn't see this in rules ("The first player to defeat a Monster with "Heart" symbols loses a corresponding number of Life points and records it on the Life tracker. Any other player defeating the Monster in the same round loses the same number Life points. Players defeating the monster in subsequent rounds do not lose Life points. As a reminder, cross out the Monster's Life point symbols when it is first defeated"). So I assume that all players that kill that Monster in the following rounds don't lose their Health, but still get a FULL reward. Am I right? 5. You said that if player kills a monster by using "Fist" space, it's not allowed to go beyond that monster's space if player didn't reach it from any side, but I didn't see this restriction in rules. Whom should I trust? :) 6. Regarding Game End - is this official rule that game is over when all monsters in the dungeon were defeated at least once by any player?
@WatchItPlayed Жыл бұрын
To save me some time, let me summarize it this way: the video is correct. I work directly with the publisher, but when I'm working on the video, I sometimes find things in the rules that are incorrect, or unclear. I take those questions to the publisher and get them clarified, so then the video ends up with information you won't always find in the rules. I also have the publisher watch and check the video over before it goes live. This is not to say that a mistake can't still slip by, but you can safely assume that what you're seeing in my video is correct. Hope that helps!

Hi Rodney, great video as always. Your content is so useful, you provide such a good service. Could you please clear up a rule query? Your video says it’s 1 VP per 3 damage to an undefeated boss. However, this has caused some confusion for me and also over on the BGG forums where people suggest it’s 1 gem (equal to 3 VP) instead. One gem rather than one point would tally up better with how the scoresheet is laid out. Are you able to confirm this either way please?
@WatchItPlayed2 жыл бұрын
Hi Simon, the video was checked over by the publisher before it went out, so I'm as confident as I can be - sometimes errors can still creep in (especially if there are translation errors), but I'm not aware of any related to this at this point.

Nice review! Thanks for that. There is just one part I dont understand. Do I make strikes against a monster instead of cossing a room? Or is it additionaly? I guess it is instead?! And when I can use a number for wound a Monster but can not use this Number for crossing a room: I lost life-points?
@WatchItPlayed10 ай бұрын
If it helps, think of the spaces with a monster in them as rooms as well. So when you cross off a monster space, you are also "crossing off a room". In other words, as long as you're crossing something off with the die value, it won't cause you damage. Make sense?

Thanks for the teach Rodney, but I was wondering about regular spaces. The rulebook says "Players may only visit Regular spaces adjacent to an already visited space or any Start space." I'm interpreting as this saying that the Start space doesn't have to be visited if you want to mark off a Regular space adjacent to it. Am I interpreting this wrong or is this a case of another mistranslation? Any help is appreciated!
