Personally, I'm just very impressed that after ten years Tom finally figured out a way to get his camera to focus on something he's holding close up. Lol, love the videos, keep up the great work.

Tom, the "seed" is probably small, because when a "pawn" moves in a space occupied by a "seed", they must fit together.

Love how simple it looks on the outside but complex on the inside. Definitely getting this one.

I think they missed the ball with the market and price point. This is not a $50 game. Small box game for a big box price. Neat idea, and it works well, but they could have gotten everything in a box much smaller and much cheaper.

This is actually very intriguing. A hugely creative design that is realized very well!

The concept of this game seems similar to the computer game 5D Chess with Multiverse Time Travel. Although in that game there are parallel universes in addition to time travel.

Yeah, its actualy feel 5D Chess inspired, but tuned down to be more managable on a real life board. IDK about actual gameplay, but IMHO 5D still create more "WOW" effect when you try to understand all possibilities there, when you send your pawns into alternative timeline to swarm it with your army or travel to the past to actualy save the future. Again, maybe its there too, but in a 5D this kind of "Default timetravel scenarios" just create themselfs. But DAMN they are brain-melty and overloaded with info and possible moves, atleast this one looks like two people could actualy play on a decent level without expanding additional void dimentions inside their brains.

It was fun. 4 plays was enough for me but abstract strategy games are not my cup of tea. If you like abstracts and can get it cheaper than MSRP it is worth a look.

I just saw Tenet… what if this game had a fourth module called INVERSION. So that a seed planted in the future grows into a tree in the past..??!! And while we’re at it. Let’s get some red pawns and blue pawns!

I feel bad for commenting on this, but I don't think I've been more disappointed. The name of the game, the text on the box got me super excited for a highly thematic murder mystery game! And then i saw the game play. I don't know if I recall a game with a more pasted on theme. The "past", "present" and "future" boards could as easily have been called one, two and three. Maybe actually playing it, I won't be annoyed, but it feels like some sort of unique twist on chess with a theme slapped on. Oh well.

@H0TTFUDGE 2 жыл бұрын

Ok.. so let’s go ahead and call them 1,2 and 3 now let’s keep in mind the modules that are added into it such as the seeds.. does 1,2 and 3 make sense? Or does past present and future make more sense?
