Your vieos are clear, logical, and enjoyable to watch. My partner and I attended a games night at a local store where this was being taught. We enjoyed it and bought the game. I wanted to add that I was sitting at the North side of the gameboard and found it helpful to place my map with the North pointing downwards in my passport to match what I was seeing on the board.

[@WatchItPlayed]

An excellent tip to ensure you don't accidentally reverse things! Thanks for the kind words about the video :)

[@elainetyger]

I grew up in New York City (Brooklyn) and, yes, playing in the hydrant water was fun and refreshing. Pretty much anytime there was water with no soap involved, that was the most summer fun.

[@WatchItPlayed]

lol, "water and no soap" :)

[@lifewithstaph]

I like that this is a team effort than playing against each other.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Yes, co-operative games create a very different experience!

[@daem0nfaust]

Oh hai, this just came out on BGA!

[@LeeGinSing]

Yep, that's also why I'm here! :)

[@WatchItPlayed]

I just saw that too!

[@Igor-jm8hf]

[@benjaminspears8488]

Nice! Looks fun!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for checking it out!

[@DiegoGonzalez-ur5bp]

Do you often have to do many intro takes to make sure you catch the box right-side up?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Are you suggesting I don't catch the box the first time every time??!!! *gasp*

[@toweypat]

Any bonus points for saying "hey, I'm walkin' here"?

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'll allow it!

[@Cobra-ug9lr]

Hi could you possibly do a how to play on plague inc board game?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5XXdaisfrqUbKM&t=342

[@Cobra-ug9lr]

@@WatchItPlayed ok completely understandable

[@skipsteroo8065]

I'm wondering if you'll ever make a video on agricola and feast for odin?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5XXdaisfrqUbKM&t=342

[@jollyroger1009]

Hi Rodney, is there any chance of a runthrough of Nations (sorry if this isn't the correct place to request a runthrough)? Thanks!

[@WatchItPlayed]

[@jollyroger1009]

@@WatchItPlayed Ah ok, thanks for the explanation!

[@play-it-or-not]

Very similar to the Mystic Paths, but this one looks much funnier. I'm wondering if you can play it without a timer as I hate real-time games.

[@WatchItPlayed]

You certainly could. I think the timer is mostly meant to keep people from taking FOREVER to assign their clues :)
