Note: When you gain more items than you are collecting, the extras are shuffled back into the Item deck (not put in a discard beside it).

Gotta admit, I thought your box flip was gonna be upside down.

As a Stranger Things fan, and gamer, I am really excited to try this. Feel like this IP is ripe for tons of games.

Brilliant explanation (once more), Rodney! These Watch It Played-movies are really top-notch. Kudos for you and the team. I got the game last week and I’m now even more looking forward to playing it. Thank you ever so much.

Hope they do season 3 and 4 as well

always great to see you content Rodney! i watch almost all of them and i usually pop these on for the table to watch the rules as i'm setting up for the night. Makes it clear and concise :)

I didn't even know this was coming out until a few days ago when your video popped up. I immediately thought it was a game we would enjoy and I pre-ordered the game that very evening. It arrived yesterday, and I finished off reading the rules this morning. The rules arent too complicated and are presented quite well throughout, then as always (if available) I finish off by watching a 'Watch it played' video to ensure I havent missed any rules. Now I feel confident and ready to deliver 'the teach' tonight. Looking forward to introducing this to my gaming group, it looks like a blast. Thanks Rodney for creating content that has become a must view in how I learn to play new games but is never dull and is always enjoyable to watch. Great stuff 👍.

Great video! Looks like a fun co-op for fans of the show!

Finally, it arrived at my LFGS. Your how to play is very useful. Hope to play the game soon.

Nothing strange about this teach! It's as wonderful as always.

Great explainer, short and get through game play concept.

Wow, I've never seen this show but I know it's so popular. This will be right up so many gamers' alley! Great teach!!!! I have learned from science fiction many times over that it's very handy to have a paranormal friend. I have also learned generally in life that it's great to have a friend!!! Hopefully lots of gamers will enjoy playing with friends around the table!

Did not know I needed this! Turns out I do! 😂🤷🏼‍♂️

Very clear and concise, a pleasure to watch. As a Stranger Things fan and an avid board gamer, I've got to try this one. Although I enjoy all kinds of board games, I prefer ones like this where the players work together instead of against each other.

Just watched the video. Great work!

Nice one, my copy arrives tomorrow (UK), i ordered a few days before it sold out, think its gone under the radar, your video has indeed got people interested...

You’re a hero Rodney. The smiley-est guy in the gaming community 🙂👍🏻.

You are simply magnificent and very clear in the explanation.

Nice how to! Thanks :)

Great work as always!

This game is going to be a legit use of the Stranger Things IP. Can’t wait to get my hands on it!

So, I watched this wonderful video, read the instructions, played Season 1 solo with 3 characters and lost. Came back to watch this video again and realized a made a few mistakes - go figure 🙂 Thanks again for such a wonderful explanation of this game, and to be honest a bunch of other ones on your channel (I would say all of the ones you have done, but I haven't watched every single one) :-) Shame on me! But, this game is now one of my favorites, being mostly a solo gamer, but I have two daughters that love Stranger Things (as do I) and they have been away this weekend, but we are planning on playing co-op tonight! That is why I needed to kick the tires solo, and then come back and watch you video :-) Note - my second copy should be here tomorrow - I bought the 2nd one after watching this video. Here's hoping another set or two will be done to encompass Season 3, 4 and the final! I can't stop saying thank you enough! And CMON has posted an official Eleven dashboard - printed, laminated and ready to play 🙂

Rodney you’re one of the originals and still one of the best.

Just received the game yesterday - thanks for making this!!!!!!!!! I quickly ordered a second copy - I was surprised to see it at my door when the preorder said May 26. Great surprise! Just subscribed to your channel, although I have seen many of your great videos before.

This looks awesome 😎

Awesome video as always!! Does it have a solo mode?

I'm glad I watched this. I always thought you could move out of a space with an enemy, I didn't realize you had to stay and fight if you start your turn on a space with an enemy.

Proof that you can hear a smile.

Does this have the same kind of game play feel one would get while playing Horrified? Or am I completely off base?

Are you attending UK Games EXPO this year?

I’ve only played season 1 but I don’t understand the comment at 17:42. When would you HAVE to fight a foe with no cards in your hand? I see the rulebook mentions this as well.

First. Rock on! Thanks for the Rules explanation. Now, I assume there is not item discard pile from the rules. It just says to shuffle it back in the deck (where as at 8:51, you say to put it in the discard pile). It's weird, but I think it can be a hard thing to remember than when refilling the Ally/Patrol or adding to the Lab on the board, it doesn't have the top token revealed (because that's what you do during setup).

great content!, Can we get a massive Darkness 2 playthrough with heavens fall.

Thank you. Where does one buy this?

There is an option to download a dashboard to use Eleven as a playable character. If you do this no character can use the Help Eleven action. Does that include Eleven herself or can she use those powers by beating a stack there?

Have one question can calm down be used every turn when you have that item card?

Thank you for this video. Used it to determine whether I should buy the game during Nerdz Day yesterday. Spoiler alert...I bought it! :)

If you draw the scene card Search Party, saying the enemy moves 2 locations towards you, and you are only 1 location away from the enemy, should the enemy still move 2x and skip over you, or will they stop at your location?

Just played my first run of this game today. Does anyone have a clarification on the Karen Wheeler card. If in possession can I use her effect on myself to go back two spaces on the fear track?

Are you forced to fight if a foe moves into your location due to drawing scene cards? Or can you leave the location in your next turn and avoid fighting?

What happens if you loose your battles recruiting allies

I have no friends so I can’t play this game but I’ll buy it anyway.

POV: I want this game but I don't have friends to play with

To bad you didnt flip it upside down :D

Aargh no solo? Had high hopes with co-op😢

On my father's day list 😊
