Glow - GameNight! DateNight!! - Se8 Ep52 - How to Play and Playthrough

[Music] so game night date night tonight on game night date night nikki and me lincoln are going to teach and try to play glow or lure a 2-4 player game designed by cedric chavisted and published by bombix let's see if we can find our way through this darkness welcome to game night date night tonight we are going to play glow glow is a game where you are going to choose a character and you are collecting a band of companions to go collect bursts of light that is correct bursts of light um and you are going to do this over eight days or eight companions however you want to look at it or eight rounds yeah uh you will be rolling dice to activate certain things on your cards actually on all of your cards good or bad which is an interesting thing to have to always remember how that works um there are going to be two decks of cards an a deck and a b deck so we'll work through a and then go to b and you will be drafting your um characters companion characters companions to your group lincoln why don't you get into the details sure so like nikki said we're going to have every round there's going to be five uh companions that you will choose from to add to your company that will be headed by your main adventure you will choose one of these seven adventures at the beginning of the game each day is broken up into five phases the first phase is morning in the morning we will draft a companion from the five available to us everyone will take one and then whatever is left are discarded in this two player game you and i the start player for that round will choose a card then discard one of the companions and then the next player gets to choose from the remaining three okay then the next phase is late morning late morning is when we roll our dice and potentially re-roll our dice you're gonna roll the dice and then hopefully get the results that you want to as best as possible and then for at noon we're going to resolve the actions on our cards based on the dice and you're going to resolve every single card that you have from your adventurer to all of your companions good or bad yeah absolutely good or bad as nikki said it's the the most compelling portion i think of this game because there's things you do not want to have happen then in the afternoon we're going to continue our journey which is moving around on this board based on the die results that we already have and then the final phase the evening we are just going to reset everything and make sure that you the dice that we had rolled all the results that we rolled will then be placed in these positions on this board and i'll explain all that in a moment so for the first round we would pick a card first thing we'll have one of these adventurers sure and these adventures have effects that will apply every turn if possible and maybe more than once if you're fortunate enough with your die rolls for example here aiolis has i'm going to put that on camera a cloud and a stone gives them a firefly which i'll explain later and how many shards of light is that two two shards uh is it bursts of light burst sunlight okay and that's basically victory points this game is versus light uh knock knock de luca which is awesome oops is the purple one that character gives you if you're able to get three identical results on the dice that you have you'll get a bonus of five bursts of light that is five okay that's pretty amazing bracio if you get two leaves you get a footprint and three bursts that's pretty great and then moloch is a stone or rock and you get a footprint and i'll explain what all those things are in a moment orium is two of a kind of the same face gives you one burst of light one burst of light and then tiedes get with a cloud and a drop of water as a result you get a re-roll and three bursalite awesome and then we have pocahontas special all the other characters start with two dice of the same color these are these dice here that are will be associated with that character and you will never lose them right pocana starts with three red dice so some of the dice actually have more than in the case of the yellow one for the uh for or urium orion that's those are the only two dice in that in the game and i'll explain why that's important later but pocahonta gets three so pacana has a little bit more power in the dice that they have dice that are part of their pool all the time but they have no special powers except at the end of the game they gain four points yes or four bursts of light the other ones do the same thing may do similar things right uh one burst of light three bursts of light see this one's only getting footprints which is an equal to a burst of light i would say now and then this is four bursts of light four bursts of light but look at that it generates a firefly and a burst of light two tuberculosis these two don't have that end game point right points but it's pretty powerful because they're just giving you uh versus players essentially victory points for the whole game plus rerolls yeah um then we have the companions the companions uh will be as i said five of them will be available each round and they have varying benefits and detractions uh for example we'll start off one of the crazy ones i do not know one portion of this game of this in the game and we'll maybe have to figure out if we get if it shows up but this one is for a cloud that card dies and you choose a companion from the cemetery area over here to bring back into your company additionally at the end of the game if that uh companion is still in your company you lose one person's life for that one okay but yeah the thing i don't know is it says something about it being the last companion you draw and i do not i've i searched it on the uh bgg and there was no answer meaning to me is that a phase b card or a deck b card see it is a b okay so potentially it might be near the end but i don't know if it's the last one you choose maybe that companion just is the last one in the deck the the reason last in in your company might matter is with spells and i'll explain that okay zargok is when you get two fire symbols that immediately dies and every other player in the comp in the game gets a curse a spell spell yeah i think i'm really their curses i mean this is a french game it's going to be curses it's not going to be positive but spells are i'll go over in a moment but you you would think of them similarly as cards they function the same way they are attached to the last companion in your company oh all right and so if you lose that companion it will re it'll move to another one um and if it's if let's say you had you're down to your only tier adventurer and it's a card b is that a card uh deck b as well a okay so if by chance if it was the first one you got let's say you had a card that somebody got that first round we all got curses and then that companion died it was your last one in your company let's see had another one that died because of a roll then that that uh spell uh yes spell keep one called curse would go off uh out of the game as well okay um then we have tho app though app these are just some of the examples uh yes that have some of the symbols soap gives if you have a water and a stone you get a fire fly token and two bursts of light all right then drell drill is different and this is a symbol that we need to know if you have no clouds on your in your dice results you get four bursts of light nice which is pretty exciting and then that one's worth bursts of light at the end of the game as well two versus the light at the end of the game this one okay now this one's a nasty one as i said french game this is car car introduces this black dye into the game and what happens is when they take that card they roll it and then they stick it in the area that it goes okay and i'll explain all that in a second when we kind of set up all this stuff then that die when you select that companion you roll that die i mean you don't roll that die you take that die with it yeah that when you roll your dice yes any symbol that that matches is excluded from your results so say it rolled with the flame then any flames that you had in your resort exactly don't count yeah it's pretty nasty wow skittle is uh interesting this is one you do not want to die but it can this is where i talk about the whether it's good or bad and how interesting it is skital this one in particular gives you a large die i didn't actually explain that but i'll explain in a moment it gives you a large die of your choice that are that is available and if there are no dice of large dice available then you don't get anything it stays with you as long as that companion is in your company okay and at the end of the game it's worth how many two shots two bursts of like firsts i know shards what you read on thing think for this one for if you get two leaves yes the character dies yes meaning that card goes out of the game yeah and you get two footprints but you do get two footprints right which is a good thing yeah it's two points right so it's it's kind of interesting i mean you could be cashing those footprints in though i i mentioned here on carr one thing is is when his if he is out of the game let's say he gets killed the black guy stays in the game oh yeah it's pretty nasty then we got luma pilli little pilly's interesting another one that will die if you roll two uh leaves and you get two footprints but but uh lumopili gives you a re-roll so that when you are triggering to do a re-roll that counts as one token okay that you do not lose that you can use once every round all right it's pretty fantastic and then we got highmoros here which is somebody's calling cthulhu corn unicorn he's got tentacles on his horse head horse body that one is you get a a water droplet on your diet you get a footprint yes and it's worth minus two two bursts of light at the end of the game additionally if it's still in your company at the end of the game it will count as a firefly for a total that i will talk about in a few moments so basically all the cards are kind of a variant of all those we'll go over any of the weird ones that come out so to set up the game we will shuffle each the a and the b deck and then draw out three cards so you're not always going to have every character in the game okay then you're gonna stack a on b and then we'll go through that we'll have eight rounds there's gonna be just enough companions available to us to have eight rounds then we'll take the dice that we have so we might as well start to get ready and then i'll explain some card play so that we can explain the uh the spells as well you will take the dice that are associated with your character or your adventurer and as i said those dyes stay with you the little dice that i mentioned earlier kind of how they work these dice to start the game off we will roll all of them might as well just do it and then you sort them by type so water water wow there's a lot of water a lot of water water and that's because of the little mark down here at the bottom of the board then these become associated with that companion for that round okay meaning if you choose that companion you get to take those oh that was a flame i don't know how i rolled that over you get to take those dice with you and you get to use them for that day at the end of the day the yo you'll roll those dice they'll have different results and then we take the dice that we have used yeah and we will put them back on the board in the same manner when there isn't a symbol and in this case we have no leaves we add a footprint so that if you take that companion you will get the footprint token okay since i mentioned the footprint token i will explain what the print does the footprint allows you first of all i said earlier they count as a burst of light so any that you have in your pool at the end of the game eat one for one you will get a burst of light for each one you have nice additionally what the footprint does is movement on this board okay it allows you to substitute any symbol that you see with a footprint except for things that cost you which i'll uh i'll explain here because you use the dice for your companion so yeah that's interesting so what you'll do is you as i said the morning phase we choose a companion then we roll our dice for the late morning phase then the noon we uh execute all the actions all the dice are just pushed aside as you do these things because remember you're going to do everything on all your on all of your company so if you have multiple if a company allows you one of your companions let you do including your the adventure itself if you have two clouds and two uh stones uh then you get to do that twice you get to do everything multiple times unless the card dies so you'll be able to adjust how you execute the things in case you're going to lose a card because then like for example if you have the one card that gave you the die um uh i keep calling it skexis but it's not it's the um it kind of looks like that from i didn't shuffle yet so okay so yeah if you have that die and this character dies because you've done this then you can do everything you do and then when he at the end if you just do that last then you remove the dye that you have associated with skital and then that dye is no longer in your pool to do your continue your journey aspect of the game here okay you see what i'm saying but you will go as far as you can on the map and you know for example we have here if you have no dice in your clouds and your die rolls then this one uh you just pass through here yeah and then you can continue on here if you have no stones okay but if you decide to move your encampment and stay at that location then you spend what it shows to get this three points at the end of the game of shards a burst of light you spend one footprint token but this also gives you a free reroll token okay and you'll see that you get those sort of some of these things along the way you can get two fireflies which i need to still explain what those do the curses which i didn't get to as being part of your cards they're all nasty there's one good one in the sense that it could get rid of a companion you want to get to so if you have two clouds then you that companion uh you must kill one of your companions why don't you put that on the close-up nikki p but the others are just as awful right i mean that's bad but this is like three of the same result you lose seven seven verses pretty bad yup two fire you move you lose six uh two leaves you lose five two stones you lose three footprints two water droplets you lose five bursts of light and another one that's a three of the same minus seven so those are terrible um the only way you could get rid of them is by going to this spot on the board oh okay if you land in this spot and you have a spell you can get rid of it but if you do not you must lose a companion so it's it's kind of rough so the paths and when you're moving it down a path you must on the same turn you must continue in the same forward right like i could come here let's say we start here come through here and then choose which way we go but you can't do something like this come over here and then come back now obviously if you're at this base and you want to get to 15 you can come out this way and continue along you can you can cross over stuff that you've been through before but on one turn you can only do uh you can only go in one direction so what you're moving is your little nipple correct when you do your encampment you bring your tent then you bring your house tent and that they say that's saving your position but what that's meaning is you that's the you're going to get that at the end of the game based on where you're encampment if you leave it there like i could continue on with my goal and end up on 10. right and this one would be minus minus the footprint and then you get that this one is two minus two footprints to get to there and then you just make sure you spend that and then you leave your encampment there and then you continue on from there and you don't have to worry about what this anything until the end of the game the other side of the board actually has this is a forest or whatever on the other side it's an archipelago and that map is you have boats and when you leave the boat on an island you get the points at the end of the game or the bursts of light at the end of the game that that is associated with that island so you could have multiple boats on multiple islands and then you add up those points i thought that this was the more advanced uh the the less you know the beginner side but i think it's just a different way of doing things right on both sides we can show all that at the end sure i mentioned earlier re-rolls when you re-roll you spend one reroll token or the if your companion has one uh a re-roll symbol on it to re-roll two dice you can spend as many as you have reroll tokens you can also spend three tokens to just get the result you want say there's something that you desperately need okay and instead of just re-rolling in hopes of getting it because the dice associated dice the red dice have two flames on them the blue dice have two which is water they have two water droplets the light blue ones have two clouds um so if you're the results you're gonna have a one in six chance unless you have a blue die of rolling a water if you need it but if you spend three of these and like i said if you had a companion that gives you one you can use that and two tokens additionally if you need to get more tokens you can take your point scoring marker and go back to the next reroll position you can't take it if you're on it you must go back and that counts as one re-roll token it's pretty awful right at later later on because we played this in advance of this on our live stream and nikki had to go back to this because she really needed the re-roll um from like a position over here it's terrible and once you get around the track if you go over 100 points bursts of light you can't take that you can't get rerolls from the score track but you can go back as many as you need to to get as many rerolls as you want depending on i mean if you really wanted to do it you could just go back three and take a okay i think i did that i rerolled three times and i should have just done that but maybe i was trying to get more than one result we will have spares of some of these dice most of them take two so there's one extra green there's one extra orange and there's one extra red and then the rest there are only two associated for each one right so the skital could take if there's multiple players in the game and there's all these are taking two of these are two of these and if they're taken that's how that's possible that they may not be able to claim a die because there's nothing left notice it is really only three colors right orange green and red some of the interesting things on the tokens on the dice themselves if nicki took the orion character and had these two die this does not have two of anything like the other ones do it actually has two faces that have three bursts of light on them and those are immediate you just get those but that counts as your result you have to leave it on that face so that it doesn't apply to anything else and the purple dice have a footprints on them so that when you get those you can have you get two footprints the additionally there are there's a purple one here that has the same same stuff on on it there is no yellow dye of that equivalent here though unfortunately because that'd be great um then we have the fireflies at the end of the game if you have enough fireflies for each of your companions so up to eight okay then you get a ten point bonus burst of light bonus nice and that's basically it we will add up whatever points of burst of light we have on our cards any from our remaining footprint tokens and any bursts of light that we have where we have our encampment on the board okay it's pretty basic but really cool yes so why don't you choose one of the characters i'm thinking about brachio for a footprint and three blocks of light every time i roll that yeah at least once you could get him multiple times that's true i think i'll try him okie dokie brachio okay well i don't know what i want to do um i think i'll take tiatus taitus titus well i don't know i love the names but i don't know how they go so normally we will align them at the bottom of the uh in a row but what we're gonna do is put them in stacks with the effects at the bottom if you have one that gives you a bonus like the re-roll token you want to put that at top so you can see it but we'll just have them over here so we can have as much space possible for us to view on the board so let's take out let's shuffle these up right and then take out three okay and you are also one other thing i didn't mention oh yeah that's right and i am actually blue for once never usually blue uh one other thing and we start on start um and then we put our uh tent our encampment and our adventurer down here in the corner okay the big cards yeah they're like tarot size the other thing to note is when you're playing with one uh two or more obviously you the player to the right of the start player gets two re-roll tokens so i will take since nikki's gonna start i will take two re-roll tokens okay unless you want to start and you want me to start i got the token in front of me let's do it and i'm sure that has to do with just making sure that you don't you know because you're going to get left with the remaining three you'll take the best one and then the second best one which it's these middle ones here i'm sure i'm not gonna get access to that okay you ready yep let's put out some possible yep companion companion company members oh that's nice footprint and it's worth minus devolves with minus five at the end of the game but it's if every time you have a cloud it's a footprint and a burst of light then la la la dawa tiger looking guy yeah two fire you get four bursts of light wow and that one does not go away and you get a fire and you get a firefly well that does not go away now there's a skital this one for example gives you the blue dye yeah which boy oh boy would i like that one uh which nikki will throw away uh through fire uh gives you kills the car and you lose five points but it gives you if you can keep it in your hand by never having three flames flames on your dice you get one one victory point and the bonus of that die the entire game hey there's another guitar right there right next door yep that one's a two stone you lose you die you get two victory points burst of light yeah you get them instead of lose them on this one and it's a green dye yes okay and then this guy is if you roll no leaves you will get three bites wow that's great too holy cow yeah but you also want to pay attention to this yeah it's important now it won't matter to that card later but for this when you're drawing dice you want to you're hoping to get specific things right did you take your die your i did not my two blue dice these go yep there's oh yeah there's one oh so i said that i didn't i don't think i counted that there was orange green so these all have a spare dye okay okay cool well these will never be in the game these two yellow ones right these two orange ones and i guess the the red one well they could be they all could be drawn by yeah the ones guitar i don't know if he's available to us but hmm all right so i chose the green guys so i'm heavily weighted towards leaf things so that would be not a good one to get necessarily well you got a third of it you know uh 33 chance of rolling that he's kind of scary at the beginning of the game i mean he's not he'd be worse at the end of the game with the minus points but well i don't i mean five seems like a lot but it probably isn't in the grand scheme of things unless we're running really tight i'm gonna take this guy yep okay so i just recruit him with my thing and then i will throw away this one really i want that blue dye i'm shocked you're leaving it for me why do you want the blue versus the green water and clouds are important to me well you shouldn't have told me that i'm looking at you you can do that minus points and stuff if you no i'll stick with my decision so he goes into the grave right and then he dies that you take those three yes because the other ones remain actually okay you removed the one so i'm going to take this one i took the dice but not the card skital skedaddle now i need to remember i mean you'll pull the card out but when you pull it out if he dies which is possible i lose the blue spare blue die and i get that blue die now and i get a you don't need to necessarily take the token we it's just if it's in your uh it counts if it's in your company it's count counts towards basically he's got his own firefight with him i mean we drew them with it when we played the game okay let me stack it the way you're stacking so yeah everyone can see what we're trying to do okay so then now we roll all the dice those go away send those to the cemetery they could come back if you get the one card that pulls one out right and remember i'll have to figure out if that's the case whether it is your last companion you draw that's deck b anyway okay it may not be one you want so let's roll our dice we both have a lot of dice this time we do i got three off of the one i drew okay i have zero water if you can believe it i can't roll fire which i've only got one so i'm going to spend one re-roll i don't roll two times three rolls i'm stuck with what i got you can go back remember you can go back to the nine i don't know if i want to do that hey at least i got a water i got a fire that i don't need um and that'll be that i'll i'll stick with what i got here it's pretty it's nothing spectacular i would love to do that twice uh what i really wanted was that i wanted the card that had that blue dye on it nikki p i wanted either a blue dye or that one with a little blue dye okay i'm gonna go back one to re-roll two okay got two symbols that do nothing for me leaf does no not real i already have and it has to be two so these don't go back to the seven no okay dice doing nothing this time okay now we're going to apply it to the effects on every card good or bad now thankfully i only have one fire which isn't valuable to me now but it might help me move along the map then we have i haven't for example i have two clouds and one water so i'll be able to apply this i get a free reroll okay token and i gain three bursts of light one two three okay okay nikki what do you got okay so i have um two two leaves okay so you get a foot footprint and a three bursts of light one two three we both have the same kind of thing okay and then um that's all that i can apply to my cards right okay sometimes you might have zero results that actually work yeah right okay so now we put back now we can continue our journey yes so starting with me i will use i have a fire i don't have any footprints though so um i will move one and stay right there because i have a fire okay i never won three though i can now roll two on this next round that would be great okay so i have um three three you're gonna go that route yeah and a foot so let's just go four so i get rid of the footprint i just got plus the water oh i'm to the water point so one more for the water yep okay that's awesome yeah that was a lot of good movement for that okay so then we do the dot we put the die results back as they are so this time of green hey there's a bunch of cracks there's a stone there's a cloud is there any water no no water okay so i got the water on my big die so there's another footprint there this is pretty great has a footprint plus three dice okay now you pass the start player token to me okay we put five new companions out and we choose we start with the morning like here like he are ikea are like like kiara iqr he's a tiger guy bobcat so for him you're gonna get two uh fireflies and then elite if you roll a leaf and a fire you get a re-roll and one burst of light um ricky ricky he's so cute he's very sad bird but he's cute uh if you roll cloud in the fire cloud in a um he's going to lose the card die or it goes cemetery but you're going to get two feet if you manage to hold on to till the end of the game it's worth five points i don't think i want that one i'll lose that one right off the bat hey another's skeptical tall okay three leaves he dies and you get minus four bursts of light yeah when he dies here's the guy who's gonna if you roll him this ex gort zargar okay yeah that one is the one if you take that one it's you roll two flames he dies and everybody gains a curse yeah or spell i keep wanting to call a curse because and then a minus minus one if he's still in your hand and the last companion possibility that's a water water yeah minus two if you steal your hand but you get a firefly at the end of the game and it gives you a footprint for every uh one you have huh that's pretty great for every water yeah water darn it those are all pretty darn good i want to kind of try to focus on getting fireflies there's not a ton of opportunity to get them i mean he doesn't even hurt you at the end of the game or if you have to get rid of him so that i right that's a nice card but you know there's a lot of opportunity with the dice on that one and you also get a footprint i don't know if you can see that from right i think i'm going to go with high morrows yeah take that footprint i could use some feets okay my morals he will go here put it underneath that since he's not necessarily going to go away the one below i might want to have him go away at some point in time well if i can keep him in my hand though it's worth the point at the end of the game it's just if he dies i lose three i lose five points right which will force me to reroll you know i mean because i definitely do not want to lose it that also is i believe that's the die right yeah it gives me the blue dye oh yeah and then i'm to get rid of i don't want you taking this one so okay i just don't want to deal with that horribleness because it's just going to be me right because yeah true were you going to say nothing [Music] well i convinced myself to take this one then pretty great i have that card essentially right i don't want another one no so except it's got two fireflies on it which is fantastic okay so you got your dice those two go to the graveyard he's sad the sad bird's going he's so cute i would wear a t-shirt with brookie on it hint yeah okay there we go let's roll our dice okay we're in the late morning phase oops i missed we both did wow get in the thing excitement okay definitely what i want is water droplets oof i've got one uh i got two footprints that's pretty fantastic uh i got re-roll tokens so i will take the water droplet obviously the footprint and a cloud a cloud a cloud uh darn that green guy did not help me i'm gonna ask you to back me up i'm gonna roll re-roll okay just one space oh it didn't seem too bad too painful for one space hey it didn't help me well i'm gonna spend one to re-roll i'll reroll these two blue dice since they're both similar i would like water droplets and i got none i have two fire which i don't want any worse so i'm going to stop there okay i did not get to do much but we'll see how this works because i have for example here i have a water droplet and a cloud so i get a re-roll token and three bursts of light one two three and then i also have a water droplet that i can use again and that will give me a free footprint so now i have plus i also have this yeah that's two two foot prints so what i'm going to do is flip that over and that'll just make these two to four okay well i kind of i got my dice set up okay so no fire nope but you get i get a footprint and three first the light yeah and unfortunately that's it for my dice oh wow yeah it was not good i only rolled four so okay too bad okey dokey so now we continue our journey yep hey i have two fire this time one two i have a water droplet so i'm going to go into camp and so if i go into camp i have to spend one of my footprints so i'll flip that over but i gain a firefly which is helpful i now have two if i keep that one uh companion in my my clan and you paid for the camp by the foot the footprint so yep i've moved my encampment that is correct wonderful you have one it's not so good uh well you can you can spend the one yeah that's it oh but you have leaves here's the deal i rolled on my re-roll i was gonna go this direction but it's no clouds and i rolled a cloud and so you kind of want to go to the five points it gives you a re-roll which is nice yeah but you have that guy which will give you a re-roll so i'm i'm heading this way with one of those and uh i'll use my footprint because for me there's no reason to hold on to it okay and that is that then we put the dice back in the way that we rolled them look at that purple dye is footprints so i guess we re-rolled that that will be a cloud wow clouds are crazy i think that's probably what i think he's gonna take and listen to something terrible okay so put out five new companions here we go and the symbols get like really no water easy to understand re-roll and two victory points yep oh this is the this is the one that gives you the free room this guy that guy is good okay so yeah if you roll two leaves that's terrible for nikki but i don't know if the other luma pilli will have the same situation i would say he's just not good for me because of my main characters right really well you want to you do not want that one for sure that one's not going to work for either two no leaves no water four points wow yeah and ocanis so kenneth hans so one leaf and a point it's minus two if you haven't took any i did okay wow that one might be a good one well you choose and then you dump one and then this one is four of the same four of the same he dies but you gain ten ten we know that that was a little hard for me she actually had that card and could not i could not get four of a kind okay well pick one and dump one well it has to be this one because this is all sure not good for me but oh well this is on this one bad that's true no water i mean you've had a water that'll be a water-ish well it doesn't actually that's too just for this round and then the die is gone only getting four dice again you should just take that one so i get all those dice you could i mean it would be great no leaves no but i mean it's counter to what you're trying to do but it doesn't hurt me in any way i would say gives you two fireflies too at the end of the game i think i'm taking him what does it give you if you get two no oh four no it's four not likely it's going to happen but it gets me too fire flying it doesn't give you any points at the end of the game a bunch of dice right now which i feel like i need for sure and then i get rid of something yep this one yeah it's ten points i was i probably would take it because i'm gonna roll if i take what i think i should take well it's two points i've been getting no water though that's not going to happen i'm getting lumpy lumpy um but two leaves and he's gone yeah okay that was a footprint which i'll just flip that over to two okay put that back and then we roll our dice these go to the graveyard i kind of like this one too yeah you just didn't like him enough well he didn't it i'm just teasing okay nice roll them up late morning i keep saying that when i know that okay water droplets and a i don't know what i really want here another water droplet would be great uh you know what he's got a free reroll so i'm gonna roll it hey another cloud not what i need i'll stop there so yeah you can't you can only use each die once so i can't actually apply this to this water droplet to this and to this to be able to do that twice well guess what i'm ending up really kind of only using floor dice anyways okay what do you got i could take one and do another re-roll do you have a token for everything i should do that no drop back one yeah i'll drop back i'll save this one yep yep might as well you got this have more fire on it no no the only the red dice have more fire on them there's another fire there's a fire and a water [Music] so help me move anywhere you only want no leaves so you can just use a footprint if you happen to get one to get out here no here we go because then this this will work for that one okay so the first thing is going to be the two leaves so i get the footprint and i get three versalite oops i've dropped it okay and i did not get to fire and of course i rolled those things i knew i would and then i got a leaf and a fire for this one so i get a re-roll token and another burst of light yep and that's it for what is this this is new this is noon yeah late uh afternoon we continue our journey okay okay so i don't have as much as you i only had three dice but i get a reroll token i might have a lot of reroll tokens and three bursts of light and i got a water droplet so i get a footprint nice and that is that okay so now we continue our journey you go ahead and go first journey so well that's kind of funny i'm just going to use the foot one two and then a footprint and then pay the footprint yep and you get a firefly firefly and i paid that so i will move my thank you there so right now i have eight points for that yep okay it is now my turn to move i don't have quite that but i can go here because i have a water droplet and i can spend three miles i'll just do three that gets me to the next spot one two three and then i spend another footprint so i'll flip that over and i get a wat a firefly which i can just flip this one over to have two okay and then i move my encampment here i move my guy and i should move my camera i should remove my guy okay there we go your your encampment has wheels that's right wow there's a nice little shortcut there yeah to the tin you have no stone okay so pass the start player token yes sir put out five new compa oh i put the dice back i don't have to worry about that since i don't have any okay fire and then this is all water and a footprint here i gave away three victory points to gain three victory points so it's kind of for for not okay but i want to keep moving along on the track huh the fire that you want no clouds no fire yeah wow this is they're all out yeah three water and he dies and you lose for four same orange dye or a red dye depending which one you take uh oh it's same thing right except it's only four points three and it's three of a kind instead of four yeah he's not like the other one and we got four points for that one cool so i choose uh hmm did you hear me i said something to think about he's out i'll take him i'll take a red dye and then you take what i want yeah yeah you kind of want that right there my finger slipped on that die what was it the stone was not a stone it was fire oh yeah of course it's all fire and i get a red dye and then uh i'm gonna get rid of this one sorry uh-huh uh uh-huh uh-huh i'm gonna take this one okay that gives you and gives you this orange dye and it gives you a red dye and an oh no an orange dye because i got the red dye i know but i meant this is a oh it's a red dye red dye okay there are no small orange dice okay well that's in your hand until you roll three water robots which is not likely kinda okay wipe those two cards off we did not take car thank you fine guys oh we're into stack b now also you know what the one other thing i did not tell you about carr which maybe i should tell you before you do you choose carr as long as you have him the black die does not apply to you right i mean he was only a footprint but that seems interesting in a game where there would be more people playing i think okay stan late morning i keep saying late morning let's roll him up wow don't want any more fire look at this i'm not getting water on the water die uh well i do have two water and i have a cloud um i'll re-roll i got a free re-roll which i've hidden under here i should put lumpily when pilly up above yeah i get a re-roll i'm doing that wrong because i need to see that if he if i get three clouds he's gone i will reroll these two um i guess i could take the water out that doesn't hurt me i want clouds though and i will reroll those two so i guess that's there hey another water droplet i got a lot of water droplets that's four points though so that's nothing to be sneezed at um one more and i'll roll these two hey more water droplets wow okay well i'm stopping with what i have yeah i just made that decision i was really thinking about re-rolling but i'm gonna just stick with what i have okie doke so i apply my water droplet here i did not get any leaves so he doesn't die i kind of remember that too i have a lot of things that die if i get certain stuff so i only have one shot at this that's going to give me three bursts of light and uh one re-roll that's kind of why i'm like spending the re-rolls i'm gonna be getting them and they're worth nothing to you at the end of the game then i have a total of five water droplets for five foot prints so i'll just take two of these and put them on the double sides and that is that it's now your turn nikki okay so uh two fires so four bursts of light and then i will okay and then one of these i will apply to the other card to give me a re-roll token and that is it wow you're not rolling your faces either no footprint and bursts of light that's huge okay so now we do the movement uh or advance our journey as it's called i did not roll any of the hmm it's why it's water to get out of there in every direction yeah and no fire yeah which you could spend the token but i'm i don't know the clouds so i'm going to water fire oh yeah i keep moving that anyway it's on wheels water fire water fire no stone nice footprint okay thank a loss of one which is rough yep another re-roll token goodness gracious and i'm moving nowhere really i'm done yeah it's all water and i don't have any footprints so this leaf goes back here and that is it and these are all water wow that's wow put out five uh new companions okay oh i was about to take them from the that's great put those face up because they're great but then i was worried that we would get confused no but here's the deal you're gonna draw from that pile potentially with that one character if he comes up so you wouldn't companion hey there's another tam nuka tamnuka he's two points wow stone is a footprint yeah ooh this is like a waspy looking guy zib bealu is a bailu yeah cloud stone five versus the light yeah you're going to keep taking those and i don't know that that's what you need you need other things i do need other things it's not good water no stone six first light two uh firefly we didn't put the footprints out for the empty spots here and here so this flips over this gets one okay okay moving on yep dun dun dun oh just sad bunny thing oh i can't take that one two water that's winning if he dies let's see i don't think he's got two footprints i don't think that's great you want to convert into something you want some conversion and water water five points if you have them he will minus minus two points so zalif zalif zalif zell leaf eek these are not great for me you do need some conversions not stone [Music] is not necessarily as likely now that you have that orange dye maybe i just take this one and get all those sure i mean there's a shot you can roll that for this turn you got six dice extra true i'll just do that no points well i'll take glue och okay it stinks because he's not really that beneficial but again i need to keep lumpily lumopilly okay uh by the way i'm just gonna move this guy into the grave yep oh yeah i'm sorry did you want to put this one back okay because it would be like ah he's not he's not going to take the one with that one with one footprint yeah this is excited when this one came up so i was thinking that was what my problem is i am not likely to roll those okay i mean that would have been something you could have taken because you have a very good chance you have one-third uh chance of yeah rolling that this is just a footprint for that guy yeah i know i you definitely like that dictate you i mean you're not losing the game so it's totally fine i don't know what you want we'll find out well you're all the way over here now for 10 points yeah well i'm only two points ahead of you so don't worry about it let's roll them up okay well i have a free reroll i will re-roll this die come on water you have one third chance uh spend another one i have a lot of re-rolls hey there we go finally did i get any more fire on fire i have a cloud and a stone i do and i have another cloud and a stone so i will keep this wow that's huge okay well your start player here what do you got all right so um footprint and three bursalite okay i only have one fire so that one doesn't count then this one is going to be um twice so 10 points for this one guy nice that's a stone in a cloud uh of course i rolled those things um then i've got a fire and a yep and um i don't have the waters oh and i rolled purple for two feet footprints okay here's mine pretty exciting my first roll with this guy water no stone water no stone 12 points nice 10 then i have cloud water cloud water that's another six six one two three four five six and two rooms and two re-rolls which you see i'm spending them and i'm still not getting rid of them then i get an additional two footprints and that is that i did not get three clouds thankfully are re-rolls worth anything at the end of the game no they're not that's what i'm saying that's why i want to kind of spend them and i got a free one every time he was that's the benefit he gets i'm not sure that that's necessary i mean i wouldn't have as many rerolls if it wasn't for him but i've been spending it every time okay so let's continue on our journey here i have no stones this is a short route i lose a companion which i really don't even want to think about so i could lose luma pilli he isn't really gaining me a lot again i'm not losing anything other than i have a reroll we have exactly this is one two three four five we have three more rounds and i have a lot of re-rolls rerolls i have to spin a footprint no water it doesn't matter i can't go that way so footprint cloud oh you are going that way i'm gonna cut up this way or try to anyway i think that's where i'm stopping your turn all right i have to use a footprint because i didn't get any water so that goes away so i can get out of here then i will use one fire to get here another footprint for that fire and is that a cloud under you so cloud cloud cloud cloud and a stone stone cool these two let me get rid of those you're gonna need footprints to stay here though so here you go although you could just go to 20. yeah okay i want to use them all but just clouds does this go up to three now oh yeah that's another footprint if there's two there oh no it wouldn't right we haven't there's there's dice there i just put them there those were for me then that was two before right it's only that only goes up if there's no dice there so put those two there i see there then do the other ones reroll the footprints there oh okay that is feet roll it again can't be feet that is fire okay and then leaf okay and i gave you put out five yeah put out five new companions is a leaf water is three points wow i kind of want the leaf except i want all those leaves over there torquay two is two points that's nice firefly which is good oh this is an interesting guy one fire equals a firefly and a leaf and he's also worth a fire fire flying a burst yeah burst light yeah i said leaf okay and then flip another two yeah yeah there we go no stone three versa light yep and two yeah if you have them in your hands still and the last guy well pokey leaf in a water gives you wow that's your card right firefly and two bursts leaf and water darn it you're first correct i don't want that one i mean i i i'm not rolling leaves just saying one and put him in the graveyard all right i'm already planning on this already planning on that um i think i need to take the water guy unfortunately this guy yep okay and then that one is going by the wayside they'll stay of course he is do you want this one or this one uh two is worth two pretty great you're not rolling a lot of fire although you have been getting like one i think yeah i got others you know i'll take him well fi fire is your synergy what is that what is the other thing on there my synergy no this one's wild what what does that give you what what else was there two different points no what was what dice were there with that nothing right it needs a footprint nikki p yeah you forgot yeah i did i got yeah i had dice with that okay so wipe those two out yep okay let's roll our dice wow you got no dice this time i know one flew out over the cuckoo's nest hey a leaf i don't seem to get those two of those would be bad so i want the water twice i guess uh i want to re-roll this and i want to reroll this put these aside for now that's just the free reroll i get with lumapilly oof i don't want stone so i don't want that leaf i'll re-roll again okay that's good and then i will re-roll this one of these at least this pair in hopes that i get another cloud or water hey there's a cloud a cloud um i have there's only two more rounds i'm going to have ah let's just spend it maybe i'll get something i need three clouds is bad though hey it's not and you know i gotta reroll that because i don't want stone oh okay okay there we go i'm leaving back to the leaf that i think i started with okay so i get i have these two here that gives me um six points nice two re-rolls plus two re-rolls there you go i know i could have i absolutely just spent you just used an inch then i've got one two three water droplets with no stone so that's 18 points okay i know you were going there got a lot of feet coming too right and then i've got three water droplets for three feet yeah so three feets i have a one so i'll take a two and there we go now i have i have ten that's ten points right there i do not have fireflies though i'm really hurting i don't think you did this guy yet oh i didn't three water droplets for another nine points wow nine points one two three four five six seven eight nine that's crazy you should not i chose that but you were shouldn't shouldn't i was probably first for that one too but you shouldn't let me have that one either because that one's fantastic any because water is great for me and i don't have much of a chance rolling stone okay what do you got nikki p yeah it doesn't move me along on the map much but i can easily pay for it now yeah and those are points at the end of the game yes too so okay um i didn't roll enough leaves uh i get five points for the stone and the and the uh clouds on this one okay and that's it really oh wait wait wait wait wait wait yeah no leaf there yeah it was terrible you have no leaf no leaf no water oh no leaf no water dang so four points four points for that sorry it's okay boy howdy gotta make sure you do you have any other pairs no no pairs boo okay oh goodness i think i figured out it's it how i would pronounce it anyways taiti's yeah there you go taiti's well this gives me a re-roll so i'll take the re-roll you're gonna go that way to it okay two clouds no stone i mean i have no stone so i spend one no no leaves it gets me that wow that's a better route and then i'm just gonna wait and see if i get stoned but i don't really want them what does this do right just if you pass that yeah you get it you get the good remember i was saying that yeah firefighters okay i'm not gonna have the fireflies i think you're gonna get the firefly bonus but i will not okay and you can't move at all right no you're not gonna go any further i would have to spend two footprints and maybe i won't have to spend any because it's gonna cost me three to to land there so that passes to you but you have enough i still have time i don't have to spend it all right now i think that you should okay well i'm not there we go water re-roll your or put you didn't get any of your dinosaurs okay put out five new companions here we go here we go yo there we go oh it's like a unicorn that's five wow scary guy here oh six torcos and other torcos maybe that wasn't named torcus it is torquey i like this guy with the clock in his belly no clouds four points another sad two clouds death that would be bad for me but he's five in your hand if you can keep him oh connor and that's neos three leaves and man if you would be rolling the reeves the leaves you should be rolling i know right if you take that guy there's three green two green dice right there and they're all leaves oh sorry this needs a footprint well you choose yeah he's funny because he's with the dice that gives you clouds for this run and you could lose them yeah that was what i was saying earlier when i had done one it was like i could lose them now with these dice okay i'm taking this actually i figured okay what are you dumping oh i really don't know i actually think i'm gonna take him out no clouds okay no clouds i wouldn't necessarily take him anyway but go ahead i wouldn't take him because oh really no clouds i mean i i want clouds right that's i mean i don't want those clouds i don't want three but i want at least two or so i think i will take torcos he's pretty great okay a die unfortunately but a dies better than no die didn't i didn't i go here i did i paid that to get there oh no i took a shortcut i took a shortcut i took a shortcut oh my god for the big points i'm trying to anyway all right okay well water is what i want to roll maybe i'll roll it away and we roll correct late morning as i said i don't do the other ones necessary three water boom boom boom okay i want no stone left unturned uh well i immediately have a free reroll so let's just leave luma pele's free reroll hey look at that two stone one of those on each die and i'm rolling it hey another water droplet boy a cloud sure would be nice let's roll another one come on cloud actually i want i kind of want oh no that's i want water hey look at that holy cow that's 30 years on it i think i'm gonna do trying to decide what to keep and what to possibly reroll wow 30 points for that plus 18 48 points no 15 44 points oh but he's oh no and he's worth six points oh my gosh this is huge this one and this one plus i get five more points and footprints wow that was an insane turn i can't believe i have the engine that i have i'm terribly usually terrible at this re-roll is that a leaf at least no moment re-roll two leaves that's good yeah it gives you some footprint you need those too okay so three leaves five points okay if i start there five points okay i have two stone i have two stone and leaves two leaves that's four points four points okay that doesn't count i have a fire a burst of light first and that that water water two leaves so i get a foot and three foot in three thank you yeah for moving me not enough fire and no clouds huh okay uh that's the end of that no now it's movement time yeah okay well i have no clouds i have a lot of water i have five water so i get five foot periods you're just running just flip that and then two of those foot prince wood prints wow no fire two leaves none of those water no stone that's one two three four five times six is 30 points man good so it's it's uh 105 right you start at 75 yeah uh no no 75 yeah 105. so it'd be 103. i'm just nice no i wasn't at 75 but yeah okay then um three of a kind i don't have that but i have three are kind of that that gives me another six one two three four five six and all you're watching five times three is fifteen so you're gonna lap me there we go nice wait wait i think i did that i wasn't at ten so it's one less no it's fifteen there you go i was right wow okay okay now it's uh continuing our journey yep i have no stone we've got one more turn right i mean i can pay it i might have stone on the final bit of course i kind of want that but i'm way ahead right now i really had a ridiculous engine okay um i think you know what i'll just spend the two to get me to that point no what's the point then i might as well just spend the three ah i'm just gonna do it okay i'm in the camp now nice 20 points 20 points here i go hey look i got my cam your camp in there oops that's what i mean are you at eight yes okay i keep taping the wrong i was switching you didn't you caught me um oh you were the one did that yeah i did okay well you have no clouds that's correct sir you're in i don't want to go there you don't you're just gonna keep going you're gonna keep going okay stone yes free re-roll yes you have leaves yes okay so you can i'm stopping at the door you have to pay the footprint to at least get to that you have to pay yeah yes because to pass this you have to do that okay and i have elite i have leaves so i have to but if you pay that no no you have stone you have stones you can go all the way here that's where i want to go you now need three footprints to get into the basement we'll see yeah and we have one still hold onto my eight that's the interesting thing about trying to move right i will still at least get those eight points if i don't get it sure but boy a 12 point game would be pretty powerful especially well you're pretty far i know it's pretty terrible i have not lost anything i've really been fortunate in getting what i needed to roll so this is a water that's a leaf three stone and one fire do we have a fire no no no that was on my big so another footprint for the fires put out the last five companions here we go three stone is death of death otherwise he's four points hey this is skittle i would have loved this rainbow he let you choose one of the large dice that you want i would choose that yellow one if it was earlier in the game yeah right now of course he shows but he is group b so skit tall or they are group p fire gives you a firefly and a footprint that would have been great earlier hey limpily lumapilly um two fires dead but six points but it's also um a re-roll yep and is that duvall the vault is the one cloud and it gives you a victory point more than one duvall and he's three at the end of the yeah that's pretty good too okay well uh you are this am i the star player now oh boy i'm gonna going to have choice of all the crazy dice yes you are okay uh let me figure that out then okay there's a lot to think about is worth one yeah gosh do i just want skatol just to have him he's worth two points but i get a crazy die actually now the draw deck isn't here where am i at with i don't it doesn't matter i don't need it but i have one that's one reason why you kind of want the cards to be visible next to each other sure i have one foot one two three i really didn't do well on the um yeah i'm not sure about my fireflies i am pretty sure you are going to make it so i have three four five i am not getting four fireflies at the end by the end of this game so goodbye to that ten point bonus i think i'm going to do skatoll i really run the chance of losing him okay but it gives me only one die and then it works like lovely lumapilly there so for me um lumipili just gives me footprints that one gives you points if you if he dies um it won't matter i was thinking i should take that one just to get the two fireflies firefly uh but three of those would kill me and i only had three four i need three more to make four more to make it happen that would give me two they'll give me six i could do it with that one i could do it with that one that's a ten point bubbles i'm fine i wanna i wanna want to die of my choice i'm gonna take the yellow die nice all right um cause it's one of everything plus that right i don't know that i'm going to get it but i have to get rid of something you have to get around something what don't you you want you kind of want um stone and clouds maybe i'm going to leave you at your own fate and guess what we're going to get rid of really okay is that the one you wanted no i just kind of want you to look i i can i can afford to be a little magnanimous i've had nothing but luck so you can choose what you want oh here we go boom okay cool well put the rest away we sure had a lot of dyes sitting on the board many times there we go okay so late morning as i said many times probably eight times now roll it up oh boy there's the leaves i don't need um hey into fire i could have taken that one ugh okay well i'll take the clouds actually i don't even know if i want the clouds i will i do not want leaves although i want the two points for skittle darn it these are all things i want to re-roll so i will keep these two for the heck of it do i want i want water more than anything i want water well let's just re-roll those first i'll put these aside re-roll these two with my free re-roll come on water one water uh then re-roll these two for a token wow i don't have as many as i thought oh my gosh two leaves this is really bad i think i pulled that out there's the other one come on okay i am now around the board so i cannot take any more re-rolls okay does anything else kill me here am i in trouble nope i'm fine this is what i've got keep that that's a pair that would be a pear so you get stone you got one well that orange dye has a chance of giving you more stone and you got a lot of re-rolls yeah i'm gonna re-roll those too you want one more stone that is not stones the same thing wow a stone and a green leaf and you got fire so you get well you don't need to repair though for this sure now i got a leaf that uh i can use it for that's just one point well you can re-roll again you got another token there long as it's not bad hey a stone i don't know you don't need it do you well you needed that one that had the three stone on it okay so i have no clouds so that's not happening i have three uh water droplets so that's three footprints just flip that over i have two fire not enough to kill that guy i don't have any leaves wouldn't matter at this point i have three water with no stone so that's 18 points 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18. and then i have i don't have three clouds i don't have three that i have three of a kind i do so i get an additional six six one two three four five six and water droplets i have three so i get another nine points nine oh my gosh i slapped you but you're gonna move ahead so let's put you on top since you're moving now crazy okay here we go yes yes i have two fires so i get two fireflies and two movement okay well there's that that over that side and two footprints as they're known as nikki p which is good get your foots it gets me into that place get you into the camera um then i have two two two and two so six points yeah okay okay no leaves no water sweet four points okay um no leaves you don't have leaves okay water don't happen nope uh no two leaves don't happen two two five four points four points and then uh ten points for this one because i have two sets of cloud and you want okay so now it's uh can continue our journey you have three and you definitely want that because it goes from eight to twelve yes so there you go that was a challenge it wasn't as easy somebody was saying in the forums on bgg that it was easy i'm like i don't know i don't know nikki did not make it in the previous game we played no um you had basically like i think you you held your stuff here because you were choosing things that didn't have these die faces prevalent yeah um okay so we add up our points based on what we have on our cards i might as well just look at them all here first of all we each have 20. might as well just do it that's 101. i'm at 201 now oh no that's not you that was that is you so you're at 101 yeah and i'm at uh 57.77 177. okay then we have he's in my hand still minus two oh lumapilly nothing it's guitar gives me to back skital gives me one i have two three skitals boy you probably should not have let me have that then two for torcos okay and nikki p what do you have okay uh one point for my main leader another point for sketal yep and three points for otanios okay now uh let's look at uh we did the cards okay fireflies how many fireflies do you have count them on your cards i i really only have i think a total of four that is all i have nine yeah so you have plenty that's ten points that's just on cards right yes because then no even that it doesn't matter it's you just need to have one for every companion so okay that's ten points all right and then uh is that it i think that's it right oh no and then footprints which i have a lot so two four six eight 10 12. i have another 12 points yeah and i gave up my footprints to get into the 20. yep 92 192 to 5 16. okay well i definitely had a better game that round than you uh what do you think nikki we didn't even see did we did we see the guy oh i think we did see the game but we threw him away oh i threw him away i didn't thought about it i didn't want well i threw him away because i didn't want it i think that's the one i didn't want you yes it was and you said it would be more interesting with more players probably yes um what do you think of this one i know no no no the die was the one i was thinking um the raven with the black dye are you thinking about taking that one yeah oh you were saying be more fun with multiple partners yeah more fun with multiple the other guy was that he would uh what did he do i know that we were talking about that one why don't you tell no no that was a um that's what it is you're exactly right curse is going everybody which would i didn't want you doing that one i thought that would be more interesting with multiple players but it's a total french kind of thing which is hilarious to me that there is sort of that thing in a lot of their games um what do you think nick i still like it um the first time we played it was a little bit of a closer well until i think until you broke away at the very end i think um right because you you had done something where you jumped back to the nearest reroll you were not getting rerolls in that game that's true i jumped back very far and i probably you made the calculation that you thought i would have won anyway by a few points it would have been a closer game if you hadn't done that re-roll and you didn't get what you wanted out of that reroll which was terrible um yeah um we managed which is very interesting to stay away from the negative effects i know because we you know you have to apply them if they if you roll it you have to apply them but i never hit that oh i had one three water droplets or something this one right and you had several i mean i had that's all i had i had three skitals i took them every chance i had yeah um and this one isn't as painful right because it had it didn't have minus points this would have been an additional minus five and four uh if i had done those now right i was choosing this one was a risky one right because it was three clouds and i wanted clouds because of the one card that gave me three points plus a re-roll so i i was risky but i i never rolled three clocks um i didn't have the clear die that that would be one more way again it wasn't i ended up rolling three water here with re-rolls but it wasn't always the case with the blue dice that should show up and the clear dice which we didn't end up using would have given us that too yeah as far as drafting counter to what you should be i definitely this one was against my whole um leaf element so because he was a minus well you took him but he worked a couple times yes just by well because i wasn't rolling the way that you'd hope the way you would think you would with with the extra leaves and all that business um and of course i have to mention the artwork i love it yeah it is really it is really fascinating i think is the artist it's really really great i know it i heard it took up time for this game to get done because it was not as fast moving as they'd hoped but um it is absolutely worth it and it's gorgeous now i had a few cards and this one was tremendous right i mean droplet no stone yeah it was huge to me right you took almost every card was a victory point card yes i did you just stack that up so we show it just to consideration because you you had done that um in the previous game as well it was just like and i thought maybe that's a mistake and maybe i still think that's a mistake i don't know maybe you do i don't judging from the results now i didn't get the the fireflies so i don't know which synergy ones did you get well i ended up water droplets that's what i was shooting for i i mean i i kept getting those this one was enormous right it's just a water droplet and i wanted them for these those are each worth three points for each water droplet plus a cloud in that case and then that was footprints that gave me an additional 12 points at the end of the game so you know those were those are huge well i had well this one i got at the very end i i wanted to make sure ensure that i got footprints to get into that last um sure and like i said i think you i think you had the fireflies uh you had nine at the end but you and that was before you even did the ones on the cards for the ones no the ones on the cards before i did the ones on the top threes i had another three on the tokens so i had the what this one that was other things other than just points and this one and yeah this one here would have been terrible that's an extra die that's a sketal which i think those are huge i i mean i had well i had these three plus this one because you let me i told you that i thought that that was a mistake to let me have that blue one and i do think i was correct so i have three cards that do other than just points yeah the rest were straight i had just four total you had eh you had seven it's still a lot no um wait which one is your character i see yeah yeah your character includes it so it's it's great mine my character was i don't remember which one he is is it this guy nope it's this one i can see it poking out here so that one's no wonder i want that you know i mean it's part of my base stuff it was scoring me points from the beginning your elements well that but i mean i wanted to i was shooting for that one an awful lot but i didn't get nearly as many clouds now of course i hamstrung myself potentially with getting a card that three clouds would have hurt me but truthfully water became much much more important than clouds later on sure it's an interesting game yeah i i love that you have to do everything yeah i love that you have to do everything whether it's bad or good now we didn't really get hit with it in this game no but it forced us like i had the two um the two i mean it was the last the both of these were two uh leaves would kill me i was able to avoid it with just the one um but it's i i love it i love the fact that you have to i love that you have to do everything i love it because it is an absolute dance and you need to this is where it makes these are tremendously important that you might step back now and you notice i don't think i stepped back once you didn't i stepped back twice i think i did get i did get lumipilly uh relatively early though so it gave me i might have been third or fourth round it gave me a day third fourth day it gave me a free reroll every time and that is huge i think that was the other thing that was important to me because i was not struggling with re-rolls you were fine towards the end but you had a little bit about 50 of the way through i think you finally started to be okay with re-rolls take this as you will but i uh didn't see the problem in stepping stepping back at the beginning of the game because the rules are closer together i did the same thing i think when we played it on the livestream i was way back here but i was really not getting roles i had i did not have spare dice and i did have the three red dye but again those give you fire twice and i wasn't even again i don't i tend to i don't know what it is with my die luck but i tend not to roll what should be the thing that i rolled hey you know you're talking about i know i know i was supposed to have a whole bunch of leaves coming up and it didn't really happen another thing i tried to correct for myself in from the live stream to this stream was remembering to pay attention to where i wanted to go on the board because in the live stream i was focusing on the double i think you were at three yeah focusing on the die activating the cards and i wasn't thinking about moving on the board so this time i tried to really yeah i mean that's 17 points difference i absolutely would have probably yeah uh won you the game if if i hadn't done it well would have won you you'd have been in better shape anyway you'd have been 20 further points ahead at the v or 10 you know 17 points ahead you know this is all really neat i like the challenge of this i mean having abundance of footprints though is not neces i mean it's great for me but it doesn't it doesn't hinder me in any way shape or form no um here we go the other side of the board has the archipelagos and you would so we were wondering we didn't i didn't really understand how the uh islands worked and the way it works is when you move your boats you each have you have four colors of boats and so you can travel to an island and then park your boat your encampment at that location i don't know if we actually use the tents i think you just leave the boats so then you would add up the total amount of uh bursts of light that you have for all the islands that you have boats on them right so instead of one camp that you're dragging around you are leaving boats at different islands yeah so the cost the cost to stay is in the movement right there is no this gives you a re-roll everything else there is no no there is no cost right this gives you two footprints when you land on this gives you a footprint when you go here it's interesting i kind of think i want to try it that way just to see how it works well it's i mean yeah because you're getting all different mindsets instead of just one but the way it works is you need to have one to two of the same symbol one is very simple to do sure um but two then you spend a footprint this one is you need four of the same symbol to get to this island and you need five of this symbol to get to this island um plus you lose this is where you get hit you get rid of the the curse or excuse me the spell or one of your companions there's another spell that one doesn't matter though i mean i wonder why you would even go there i don't know because it doesn't continue from anywhere that's a weird choice yeah but it doesn't you want to leave your boats here you want to leave your boats on the islands with okay the burst of light i'm not sure what the point of that is and five is the highest on this side yeah why would you go here i mean oh you know what to get rid of a curse or to get rid of one of the companion that would be minus point yeah okay and notice that's a free movement yes that's what that is so it's like hey i'm here i got my two footprints so i will use the additional one to go here well did we we didn't use three footprints uh three rerolls for a uh for a diet choice a face no we didn't do that die of your choice and i think it's your choice maybe i probably should have done that on a couple maybe i should have done that too i don't know i don't know if you had as many i mean you had a lot at the end of the game you might have been able to get exactly what you wanted i probably should have been paying attention to that maybe i don't i needed two i needed you i needed something to happen for two correctly onto two different dies yeah well this is a fun game it's definitely beautiful i mean the art is really really amazing i cannot state how much i mean you know black and white is not necessarily popular with games but it's gracious this stuff is so great lots of great illustrations i like them they remind me of gory gory a little bit i mean they're not him at all no but it's the black and white stylistically yeah yeah it's really great um really fun it's i know we're putting this video out a little bit before it's a us release it is available again you can get the french version and it you this is the french version it has no we don't have english rules but it's completely playable you can download it it's coming i believe from luma and i absolutely recommend it's really a fun game i am looking forward to playing this with more players to see some of the interaction of uh some of these maybe some of the more nasty stuff i don't know i'm not sure about bells yeah spells and the black dye yeah well i mean you could do that it doesn't matter i mean i always i don't know that dave would like this die either okay but uh you might it's different i feel it's different and i like that as long as that card's in play you're immune from that die exactly that would be the reason why you wanted to then if you probably should have done that you probably shouldn't was it an option for you to choose that it probably wasn't for me to choose that one but i kind of felt like how long am i going to hold on to that card well it's only going to affect one person in the game we're not playing with multiple players yeah i don't know if it makes it maybe there's five boats maybe you can do five i thought it was four but so it would be five islands i guess you can do that on that's pretty great um but yeah i i think it's great now there's only four different colors oh i see it's a four player game but you have up to seven characters you can choose from i think you can do seven players um but yeah that would probably be crazy with seven players on the game and that's the other thing i chose a different character with a very different mechanic oh you're kidding i like i said the previous game i chose when they had just three red dye and yeah no uh no action no uh you know which i love that i mean i i kind of feel like i because when i was as i said earlier right when i was looking at the cars like oh yeah there's there's these have actions on them effects you know they have effects on them and i probably you know that'd be fun i wasn't i was i thought about it for a moment and i thought no i don't really want that red the red dye um i mean it's fine uh right because the one you played previous was uh i will say though it looks like i probably chose correctly because you know as far as i don't know if i saw the synergy for these as much in the cards i might not have just been looking but um they may not have as many since you have three die right i don't know maybe but yeah three of a kind that was crazy in my hand too right that was near the end but that at least guaranteed six points because i wasn't getting so many water here's some cards that have fire on them so if you had chosen the other character yeah and you had them and i have i mean here's another one with fire but i just mean yeah there's some synergy stuff there's some fire stuff too so it's probably that one kills the card though you you that reroll you want so you don't i would not choose that one with a if i had the three fire firefighter that's the cursed one has to do with fire here's another fire guy but he dies balance that's a this is a weird card to me anyway i guess it's just cursing everybody else and then good luck to them getting rid of it yeah it certainly seems like it's a challenge there you go yeah well i was saying i mean i know you're not i i'm not i don't love attack games but i don't mind them as much because i understand it's the game um i know i'm pretty certain dave wouldn't like the attack stuff again maybe not in this game i don't know uh but when we played inish um with stephanie and stephanie is great and she's a tough player and she was hard i remember begging her at one point i'm like i will not attack you i just want to get it i want to get away from this area but dave was definitely not digging it you know because it's you have to do attacking that game is all about attacking i think and again french design but attacking is definitely a very s the design has to be really really good because a lot of for me the attack games attacking games just turn into get them get them give them get them and i don't like that's the aspect of the attack what i don't like is attacking a leader or got we played with people that attacked the person in the last place yes and i don't understand that either and like why why not target that yeah i don't know so i yeah maybe maybe i'm not built for those either well thanks for playing nikki p thank you lincoln and thanks for teaching no problem and
