Very fun and engaging review! I knew nothing about this game but now I'm really interested in it!

It’s a song - Weapon of Choice by Fat Boy Slim.

I was interested in the game and your review popped up in my YT feed. Checked it out and subbed! Great format with the both of you and I plan to delve down into some of your other videos now. I also have a lot of love for Hadrian's Wall! Great review!

Oh story campaign that can resttable wow!!! I wanna try it. Thx for review.

[tonybowers]

Thanks for sharing.
Got my KS copy a few days ago and have played about 5 games. Enjoying it a lot.
One thing I enjoy a lot is - for me, the game is pretty balanced the whole game. It has a beginning, mid game, and end game, but all 3 are pretty challenging. It doesn't get a lot easier or harder as I play. The player becomes more powerful by removing buildings and increasing deck size, but the challenge is greater too, because more barbarians come out as you complete canals. And, there are handicap cards that come into play based on if you win or lose.
I also enjoy that there is a discard AND exhausted deck. And, as you mentioned, the cards have a basic ability, an add on ability of you discard instead exhaust, and a permanent ability on the bottom.
The campaign is pretty fun in that it mixes things up a bit.
A solid 5 out of 5 for me.

Wow, you guys are really good. Legacy of Yu is my first video I watched of you guys as of today (Feb 20th). I watch a lot of board game channels and am surprised I didn't stumble on you sooner. Great style and delivery of your reviews.

I subscribed today. (From USA)

I looove this channel. Great hosts, asks the important questions and is not too serious or squeamish. Love it. Now, where was that secret message here?

[thesolitairegambit]

I should say that i backed this game and I’m really looking forward to play it! 😁🤩

[jamessherman]

Thanks for your review! I’m not a huge solo game player but this looks so cleverly designed and appealing as a solo game that I must give it a try. Like Euro games too! Hadrian’s Wall looks to be a bit more complex game but who knows, I may eventually try it.

Great video! Subscribing and playing my first game later tonight

My issue with this game is that once you figure out how to play it well (i.e., “solve” it), it becomes very same-y and routinized, and after that point you’re just going through the motions and almost guaranteed to win (unless you have bad luck).

First few games (before I fully solved it) were really good though, albeit they also took much longer than I’d have liked.

I managed to finish out the campaign to see the ending, but my motivation to do so was really like after game 5-6 or so.

[veerchasm]

The campaign is very enjoyable and interactive making me want to play it again immediately

[Bieranti]

Soooo... No money saving this Kickstarter season!!

Also, to add to this review, there are some quite neet promo materials for Hadrians wall at the KS.

I would like to watch you review Dale of Merchants Collection
