As always, great job on the video. I must say this is a very unique theme for a board game, I'm honestly struggling to think of any other ones that are actually about fashion and design. I like the loan/credit system personally and think that's rather clever where you have to plan carefully be sure you are going to rake in a lot more money or points than you have to pay back with interest and principle. The criteria for the exhibitions allows for a lot of replay-ability it seems given every game there will be different focuses and designs out at a given time.

Right in time to pump my excitement while waiting for my copy :)

Thank you Jon! I just received my copy in the mail, and this will help tremendously with teaching it to my friends.

Thanks for the play through, Jon! I've always been curious about this game.

Thanks for creating this! I can’t wait to play my copy!

Great video! Disappointed in myself that I didn't pull the trigger when this went to KS. But will be picking up a retail copy for sure. You also made me chuckle when you called the Exhibition, Expedition in one segment :D

Quick question - why is the money tracker token (round disk) labelled -1 (or +1)? If it's just sitting on the amount of upkeep (say, -6, for example) why does it need a -1 symbol as well? Shouldn't it just be a coin symbol or an invoice or bill symbol? At 22:53, for example, the player with no improved employees or buildings just has an upkeep of 3 (for the 3 base employees). So the green token is sitting on the -3. Got it, that's how much to be paid every upkeep, -3. But why is the green token a -1 symbol? Thanks

I’ve got to slow the speech down, speaking too fast for me. I’ve got this game on sale during Portalcon this past week and excited to learn to play as I wait for it to arrrive. New subscriber by the way... watched your play through of first Martians. Good job there.

Thanks! When you upgrade to experienced accountant the card says that you gain 7$. But you modify upkeep in seven. Is that correct? Thanks
