Thanks so much for making this video. Its concise and edited well and really shows general heuristics for the system. Really helped me wrap my brain around the game and get the most out of it.

Thanks for putting this up! Really helped me understand the flow of the game.

By far my favorite game of the year so far. I like this better than Mansions of Madness because I felt like I was interacting with the cards and game itself much more. The scouting also gave the game more strategy and choice. Can’t wait for more!

An easy to follow game if you've played Mansions of Madness. Literally almost the same concept. I played my first play through, utilizing what I know from Mansions of Madness and just looked up what certain things meant and was able to play through the first time almost correctly lol. But thanks for the video!! It helped with what I got wrong.

Interesting. It looks like A LOT more app integration than I had thought it would be. Not sure how much I like that. I play board games to get away from my computer screen (all day at work) as well as my tablet.

Great video thank you

With Bilbo - the Self Sufficient card became an inmate ability once you prepped it. It doesnt say discard after use, only if you hide do you discard the card. So, use that instead of your physical tokens.

Played the game for the first time yesterday with Legolas Hunter and Gimli Guardian. Failed miserably, it felt like my threat got up way faster in my game than in yours (played on normal difficulty as well). I wasnt able to progress fast enough and each shadow phase my threat increased by 10....

Great play through. Thanks for sharing. I like the faster pace (you summarize what the app said and stay on the tiles and minis). I have the game, but haven't played it yet. I'm going to have Gimli in my party since it looks like combat is a big part of the game. I'm thinking of going with Gimli and Legolas for combat, and Beravor for scouting; although keeping track of 3 may be a bit much. Personally I like the LOTR theme, game play, minis, and cards instead of dice. And, I like the app keeping track of statistics and such and adding a story. I don't mind paying for expansions if they are a good value for the play time provided. I want to paint the minis and really get into the game. Hopefully it will have enough 'depth' to provide a rewarding play experience over the long term.

Curious to see how this goes. I'm on the fence on this one at the moment.

In 7:42, Interact with search token is a action. You did 3 action?

Is colin still with the channel? Haven't seen him play in a long while.

After having played the first scenario myself, it seems quite a bit easier with 2 heroes than 4, even with scaling. I didn't realize the tests get easier the more times you do them. I got 4 successes on a test and failed, so I gave up and moved on to another token. It makes sense that it gets easier, although that's not stated anywhere (that I know of).

Yeah I've changed my mind about half a dozen times with this game. Finally decided to sit on the fence for awhile. There's things I like and things I dislike. It's also just another game by FFG that's going to require a lot of expansions before it has plenty of replay ability which unfortunately means spending a tonne of money. I know it's their business model but I'm getting sick of games that rely on expansion after expansion after expansion.

If I'm not mistaking Gimli's starting item let's him test might instead of any other ability except agility. You should have flipped four cards for his first test

I was sure ull play this game

Why was you in a hurry with this video? You didn't show a bunch of things in the app. Not the usual quality of your videos.

Testing, testing, testing... Boring, boring, boring...
