One of the best playthroughs ever. Three different strategies. It was exciting to see who will win. It was so close!

Thanks for the great playthrough Jon. what I love most about your playthroughs is how quick you get into gameplay and go through turns. This 51 minutes really flew by! Looking forward to the next video. Ollie

I was on the fence about this one, but watching yellow win the game after starting so far behind just sold me a copy of this game. It looks easy to teach, but the potential for exciting turns seems really high.

There may be a goof at 40:10 when the blue player discards 1 card to move into a discard 2 space.

Don't know how you make playthroughs so entertaining. Just wanted to get a quick feel for the game and watch 5 or 10 minutes. Ended up watching the whole thing

Excellent playthrought. Your reviews are also amazing with Pros, Neutral and Cons. Thanks for all the hard work!

Great playthrough--I'm definitely ready to play the game now. Thanks!!

love this game and your play thru, tks Jon as always

This was a really good playthrough, such a nail-biting ending and it made me extremely excited to get the game now. Thank you!

this is a very nice playthrough, with all the cards & different strategies explained! Well done, thanks

A very good, informative, play-through - many thanks!

Another great playthrough. Thanks so much and keep it up.

A great teaching play-through, very helpful before my first game. Many thanks!

"Adventure Hat" .... ok lol. This looks really cool, super simple for family / non gamers. Cheers for the playthrough.

Awesome playthrough Jon, those cartographers really made for an interesting strategy

Bought this and played a couple games with my girlfriend today. Great game. Really enjoyed your playthrough

great playthrough, im sold!

Fenomenal! thanks. Very nice quality and the cuts on the video are so clean. My game is arriving soon and for what I saw I think I am going to like it.

Wonderful playthrough, Jon, as always. I couldn't stop watching, wondering which player's strategy would be the winning one. It made me want to play---NOW! :)

I am super excited to get my hands on this, reminds me a bit of Mississippi Queen, one of my favourites, but with the deck building aspect too

One of the best playthroughs I've seen for this game. Thanks Jon, you just made the rules redundant. :)

Great job Jon. Now I need it hahahah

Bro, greatest videos. Love you. Keep up the good work ❤

When I heard about this game and check the description on boardgamegeek I though "meh". After watching your playthrough I really want it. So I guess I could say you did a very good job :-)

Thanks, this is better than a pure how to play video

Hey Jon, great play through! I noticed that the blue player moved onto a discard two cards hex and only discarded one card at the 40:10 mark. May want to add a note to that spot. Looking forward to getting my hands on this game in the future. Thanks!

I thought you could only take a cave tile if you ended movement on an adjacent space.

@jonGetsGames- Any chance for a rules and review of Race to El Dorado? Great play through by the way! 👍🏻

good game, but why did they make the tile letters so hard to see? Bigger with better contrast would have helped a lot

Great review, question,,,,there is a discard pile, a hand of cards where is the draw pile as mentioned in the rules ? Is the discard pile and the draw pile the same pile?

I have seen another play-through of this game where the players sat on a barrier as a "Blocker". Is this possible? Can it be used as a "spot" like other spots to land on or do you just remove it from the board and stay on your previous spot until it is gone and then move into the next spot with your next card or your next hand????

Do the cards represent a pool of currencies? Like imagine a path of hexes that goes, a (2)Machete hex, a (1)Coin hex then a (1)Machete hex and I have a (1)Coin card and a (3)Machete card, can I split up the "Pool" of 3 Machete power to pay the 2 for the first hex space, pay the coin, then use the "remaining" 1 Machete to move from to the last forest tile?

Well...I think this game will win the Spiel des Jahres next monday. My first pick was Kingdomino, but this looks much more fun.

at 9:39 could you have used 1 yellow card to get a bonus tile?

@27:52 you could have bought a card with 3 paddles to use your next turn instead of using your coin to move forward. There are lots of other choices that other players could have done to get them more choice of cards in their respective decks too.

Is that one of the setups that came with the game? Looks like red player starts with a handicap because he has to run a longer route...

Pretty sure the one time use coin cards are NOT discarded out of the game if you use them as currency, only if you use them to move.

How does this game compare to Clank! since they are both deckbuilders that generate movement, purchasing, and an ability to overcome obstacles? Both look interesting but they seem to be similar in that your deck construction strategy depends on your approach to the obstacles.

At 40:10 wouldn't you have to discard 2 cards to move into that space?

I want to correct your correction. At 3:32, you say in the Klingon subtitles that "The card is only removed if you use the 4 coins for movement. If you use the card as purchasing power then you keep it in your deck". Here's what the English manual says (bold text as in original): *Special Cards: Items* These cards are marked by a crossed-out card symbol. Item cards can only be played *once* per game. After an item is used, remove it from the game (put back in the box). Do *not* place it on your discard pile! *Exception:* If you play an item card without using its function (e.g. to pass a rubble space, or to spend it as 1/2 a coin), place it above the expedition board after you played it, then put it on your discard pile. So yes, there are times you can use an item without having to remove it from the game, but I'm pretty sure using an item to purchase something is not one of them.

Question: the scientist let you draw 1 card and toss 1. My doubts is, Do i have to toss a card or I can decide if I want to?

Is it possible to be stuck by discarding cards and not being able to have enough money to buy cards to go over difficult terrain in the end?

Not sure about this rule specifically, but I think you placed too many blockades in the map? At both the start and end parts of the map you used with the terrain strips, you should have only used one blockade. As in the rulebook: "When using terrain strips, only place one blockade (at the start side of each strip)"

This game looks quite fun! It's one of those games where the theme is absolutely forced onto it though, the board doesn't exactly look appealing either - which is why I probably won't be buying it. But having seen your Playthrough, I'd definetly play it if someone else had it. :)

Can I go to a camp, leave a camp and go back to camp again to trash more cards? (Just like leaving cave and go back to cave again to get more cave tokens)

game el doradoall house everyone

This seems like a fun game, but I don't see the SdJ appeal.
