We find your instructional "non-review" and gameplay videos often more useful than most "review" videos when deciding if a game is right for us. Keep up the great work!

Should have watched this first... I'm still trying to get the cinnamon out of my game table... on the plus side, my game room smells wonderful.

[computerguy]

I liked the small bit of humor about not using actual spices if the cubes run out. Keep the jokes coming!

Omg I bought this game and I didnt have youtube back then and I was so lost, this was so simple and concise thank you soooo much.

[catherinebernert]

Rodney - you are truly the best at instructional videos. I am an avid board gamer, and always turn to your videos for clear, concise, and informative instructions on how to play a new game I have purchased. Thank you for your efforts, and for keeping it simple, crystal clear, upbeat but not over the top. You are greatly appreciated!

[hugues-alexandredery]

You sir, should be hired by every company in the world and replace the instruction booklet. Great vids!

[coucoualex]

Rodney, thank you for your really great tutorial Videos. Being myself a belgian french native speaker (living in germany), i appreciate very much your clear english and articulation. A really great pleasure to watch and hear you, thank you for your great work and your excellent structured explanations. You do also always look like beeing in a good mood and you transmit a nice positive energy. kind regards from Cologne!

[shirmpnotshrimp]

Thank you so much, Rodney for such educational videos. Your channel literally brought me to boardgames :)). Keep up the amazing contents

[Brudette]

Thank you so much for your videos! They are perfection in terms of clarity, professionalism, and quality. Every single time we get a new game (which is often...), we check to see if you have a video for it.

[GrotesqueDestiny]

Rodney you are the best game teaching host on youtube. You rock!

[rhymeswithyourmom_]

always the best! I can't imagine doing these any clearer than what you've achieved.

[SunnyvaleTrash]

Thank you for the enthusiastic and informative tutorials. I'm very excited to get this game to the table!

[TheSpacebeagle]

Played this today for the first time, didn't have to use the in-game instructions once. Thanks for the great videos, you have a rare skill for sure and make this look easy. Keep up the awesome work!

[jenniferbaker]

Great tutorial! Currently our FAV game. Nearly every weekend lately. Thank you!

[injction]

Thanks for the amazing video, bought this game and checked it you had a video about it. Such an amazing game, love it. Keep up the good work! Thanks

[clliip]

The golem edition is a wonderfully styled game and I thoroughly enjoy it, personally would recommend that over the first one, although the game mechanics are exactly the same, just nice stylistic changes

[WiDOC]

I enjoyed your video. As a previous comment says, for a non native english speaker I really do enjoy the fact that you speak slowly and clearly, and it also helps the auto-subtitles and there is rarely big mistake on that so thank you.

[tylered]

I know lots of people say it already, but these videos are awesome! My wife and I buy games all the time and fight over who has to read the instruction booklet, but if we see a Watch It Played video on something, we always let out a sigh of relief. lol. Keep up the good work!

[loganholman]

I just preordered this game. I've heard the hype but after seeing how it's played, I'm all aboard the train and think this will be an instant classic in our home. Thanks!

[unbreakablemustang]

I sure hope these board game companies give you kickbacks because most of the games I buy are after I watch your incredible videos. Bought this one today and because of you I am ready to play. Thanks Rodney for all that you do.
