What I enjoy the most in Gaia Project is how varied the games are, the factions are so unique and so much fun to play. It’s only 6 rounds so you have a limited amount of time to do everything you need to do.
It’s so exciting.
In Gaia Project you control a faction striving to peacefully settle in the Terra Mystica galaxy by making planets around you habitable.
It takes a bit of time to learn but it’s not that difficult to play once you get used to it. There’s no combat but it is highly competitive and there’s real depth of strategy. It is one of the most intense games I’ve played recently.

Tabletop games are really fun, but learning the complicated directions and rules can be a challenge. Lavinia and Peter explain the rules quickly and easily so you get to play faster while giving you all the tips you need to get better.

Hi all, below is a correction a viewer kindly flagged. When you set up, you set up everything first, the board, the tracks...and then you pick the faction.

Very good, concise and well presented video. I have four cats, your calm exterior when Peter walked over was epic. Your explanation of power charging missed that when you have both power to charge and add you choose the order, very important to know when you have gained economy research levels and a stronghold placement.

Thank you so much, that is a very good point you made and I will add it to the pinned comment. I really appreciate it. I am used to Peter crossing the table full of pieces, I must say he is much better now than before 😂

I don't know if you enjoy Harry Potter, but the board game I'm very interested in and would enjoy your input.

I am sorry it wasn't clear for you, what works for some doesn't work for others sometimes. But I'm glad you found a tutorial that was clear. JonGetsGames is excellent. Enjoy Gaia Project, it's an amazing game.
