How to Play Gaia Project Board Game (FULL Rules, Quick & Concise)

Learn How to Play Gaia Project in 12 minutes

This is a quick and comprehensive rules overview. What I try to do is cover all the rules, including the latest errata at the time of recording and BGG FAQs in a short amount of time as possible. Of course, while still trying to remain clear.

These videos are not a rulebook replacement. They have 3 goals:
1 – As a refresher, if you haven’t played the game for a while and need a reminder of the rules
2 – For a brief overview of the game if you’re going to play it for the first time
3 – As an alternative to a review style video to see if the game is for you

Of course, before you leave remember to like, share and subscribe. Also, drop a comment if the video was useful (or you have constructive feedback).

Great video. At 1:12 you blew my mind by saying white -> blue -> yellow while placing the pieces in yellow -> blue -> white order.

Very nice reminder video after a few months without playing the game.
Thank you.

Very Nice reminder video when you haven't played it in a while

I read the manual with that and this amazing video I think that I understand mostly of the game mechanics, I think its time to prove it. Thanks for the video

[colinwilliamson]

excellent! I haven't played in a couple years and ive gotta teach some brand new players. I might just show this instead!

[mmckiel]

Wow, awesome job, well done!!! Thank you!

Explaining how to take an advanced tech tile as part of the research progress action is confusing. You can only take an advanced tech tile when you would otherwise take a regular tech tile, but must meet some additional conditions as described in the video.

This was a fantastic tutorial thank you.

Great video. Great game, but not the best ever.
