Ooh, this will drive my "must read all the rules to completion" friend nuts, and it will delight his "start playing and learn as we go" wife.

great review; thank you E&E. You helped me understand the game, and answered questions I didn't even know I would have. I appreciate the album cover in the video, and wish I were cool enough to recognize it. Well done all around

I just love that copy of Blunderbuss sitting there behind.

Hi Efka and Elaine, did you do a review of Seafall? It looked like it in the opening shots of this video, but I couldn't find it. I would love what to hear what you have to say about that particular game...

I'm taking the course on comedy writing. Thanks for the recommendation it looks like a fun site!

Narrative driven co-op games are generally my least preferred genre, but Forgotten Waters is just absolutely fantastic 🙌🏻 So much fun, we laugh from beginning to end!

[NoWonCares]

Great production value, fair review, good stuff. Personally, edges over too far towards narrative to me, where'd I'd rather play a TTRPG, but the voice overs make it much better than other story games I've played.

But I'm also not huge into pirates, so maybe this one just isn't for me.

As an Australian with ADHD I feel very represented and catered for in this video.

Is Jesbut J. Vance a tip of the tricorn hat to Jack Vance?

[julianbailey]

'You'll be so battered, you might as well change your name to chip shop sausage.' is a line that should be written down in history as an example of genius in action.

Who else thought of Sanji as the culinary pirate? haha

[moltenbullet]

A culinary pirate? I'd say Red Leg Zeff or Black Leg Sanji fall into this category.

Played the first 3 scenarios and really enjoyed them. Played the 4th twice and lost both times after 2-3 turns/pages with no way to mitigate the loss. 5 people say around the table repeating the same page over and over again until we lost. Then same thing happened again. Wondering if anyone else had a similar experience

Efka, you thought you could all infect use with a Shania Twain song, but no! It's the Saftey dance, cause your friends don't play, and if they don't play, well they're no friends of mine.

Nice American accent! To make it perfect, you have to pronounce the "th" in "three". It can't be "free". Also in "by-law", the American accent says "law" with a very elongated sound. You actually have to open your mouth quite wide to make the American "law" sound versus the British one.

Two copies of OK Computer? I know it's a great album but really.
