Nobody can explain a game better than Dave!

I love how you have new people on the show once in a while! Gabby seems super nice!

9 minutes into actual game play and I am hooked. This game has been on my radar for a few months now and seems like something I can play with the family and my gamer group.

FANTASTIC! Davis is amazing. He should have a channel like Rodney explaining and teaching games. That would be awesome!!!

Near the end, Lincoln filled in 'Hello Nursery' (at 1:22:15) but you didn't open a new shop! (As you said they could go on the ends and there were two cards left. Yeah, real end Gabby opened a shop, so that was a mistake back then...)

Displacer Beast is a D&D monster.

Recently brought this game based on its beautiful art style. Absolutely love this game! Great video ❤️

What an "enchanting" game! I'm going to have to "gather" together sufficient pounds and pennies to buy it.

What a great game you showed us this time guys. I was really interested from very early into the game, but when near the end, Nikki said she had a Dragon named Toasty, that was it confirmed, I have to get it.

Great video as always, really enjoyed it and thanks for posting.

PS: Lincoln, I don't live in the US and never thought Dallas would get ice storms. ICE STORMS... in 😮😮😮😮😮😮

At the end of the game, it seems like it would be worthwhile to swap some of those potion dragons for leaf ones. You'd be able to dump a few excess resources for a few points that way. Great playthrough!

Great playthrough and great to see this game get some Game Night love. At about 36:45 mark, Lincoln fires up a purple (potion) dragon to "swap, " but just plays it on another shop location and takes the placement benefit. I don't believe this is how the "swap" dragons work, since the Ability calls for you to actually swap with another artisan dragon in town. Additionally, what this does is make it so that the shop where the potion dragon came from can be completed a second time, which shouldn't happen.
EDIT - One extra thing worth mentioning is the leaf ability of giving a resource to someone for 2 reputation. Later in the game, when players are looking to squeeze a few extra reputation out of a turn means that those potion dragons allow you to do that as many times as there are potion dragons available.

My family (including 2 young kids) loves Flamecraft! Great game for all!

I think Lincoln's victory involved a little luck and a lot of strategic awareness. Twice, he scored night dragons that got the +3 bonus for being the "most" of the right type of dragon. If those had been something that never had majority, like plants or bread, or if Lincoln hadn't played them at just the right time, he would've been down 6 points and tied with Dave.

Very entertaining playthrough, thank you!

The bonus packs to this game is awesome. The minis, the tokens and the coins are all great! :D

In AD&D there is a monster called a Displacer Beast.

Come for the game, stay for the puns and jokes

[SethÚasarune]

I just came home, opened up YouTube and panicked, because I thought I'd lost four days 😂😜
Being a dragon, myself, I always love dragon games.
Great video, guys!

[heyojayo]

I missed the kickstarter for this but I can import the standard edition from Poland. It looks so cute and fun I bit the bullet, they say E.T.A April. It doesn't come with those awesome figures though just the wooden pieces. Awseome job painting those they look amazing 👍

The burning embers of "Glowes" - you were looking for a pun version of Lowes

I think Nikki forgot to take 4 goods instead of 3 in 46:44 gather goods phase
