11:12 you mention skipping a turn to open up your wild spaces. You can only erase 1 per turn passed not all at once.

My first roll n write was Fleet: The Dice game, this was my second and from Frank West and The Isle of Cats, Explore and Draw is my third. I like how they each play and feel different!

I like your analysis, at the beginning of the odds chart! You made it more clear for me to understand how they are figuring the odds and not just making just a random call.
Also, do try or at least watch a solo play thru. I found them very satisfying and plan on trying it out soon.

9:00 you mention the sets of 8 horses. The Kickstarter actually has 5 sets altogether.
Apple
Fence
Chain
L (which is supposed to be finishing line)
Hand giving a flower

I like your background! It’s nice to see some games and hobby collectibles. Makes it more personal and interesting.

Thanks for viewing this game! I hope you do a similar viewing of Wild Serengeti and Meeples and Monsters too!

We just played this game over the weekend and loved it. Hope to play it again soon!

You mentioned you would have to remove a game if you keep this one. What did you decide to do? If you kept Long Shot, which game did it bump?

[BiggelsworthBoi]

I like this much more than Downforce. definitely already my favorite race game I own so far!

Thanks for the review. I love that you compared it to other games.

I love Camel Up.

One clarification question: at 4 players, which one would you prefer Camel Up or this? I don’t think I have room for 2 in my collection

Miss the good old times when your thumbnail is just a pic of the game and not some question or comparison. It puts the game into focus. Now it is getting too clustered and clickbaity
