I love how you and Paula tied with 108 points each and Chaz had a total of 4. Made me laugh.

Are we not going to talk about how smooth that throw & catch was at the start of the video? 😎

Name a man who’s aging more gracefully than Rodney Smith, Difficulty: Impossible The reason I use these videos to help teach friends is because they come for the board games, and stay for the Rodney hahahaha. Keep killing it man! Thank you for all you do:)

Hello Rodney, I love bonsai trees so when I saw your latest video, I was grinning ear to ear. Another great explanation from you. I do have questions though... 1. When you cultivate, must you use all your tiles or can you choose which ones to plant? 2. Do you use the face down cards each time you want to cultivate? Thanks!

@WatchItPlayed 11 ай бұрын

1. You can choose fewer, if you like. 2. Which face down cards do you mean? Do you maybe have a time stamp?

Excellent video as usual! Did you mismatch the pot tiles and the Seishi starting tiles on purpose? 😬

@WatchItPlayed 2 ай бұрын

Incredibly, it wasn't until after the video that I realized they were color specific! Thankfully it doesn't affect the rules, or I would have had a lot of reshooting to do!

@markustangring 4 ай бұрын

Hi, and thanks for yet another great video. Question: If I meditate and take a helpercard from a spot were I also take som other recourses, can I trake these recourses first and then use my helper to place them or do I need to take the helper action first and then add the recorses to my stash?

@WatchItPlayed 4 ай бұрын

Hi Mark, you can do it in either order.

@nicolo7191 13 күн бұрын

Really lovely game! Quick question: rules says that there are 11 cards to remove for a 3 players game (so with a 4 dots mark) But there are only 4…is that a typo?

@WatchItPlayed 13 күн бұрын

I'm looking through a digital PDF of the rules (lent my copy to a friend) and I don't see where it says there are 11 cards to remove, but I do see it says to remove all with 4 dots. Remove all with 4 dots and you should be good.

One question.... Does the game give you a way to mark those who didn't want to take an objective and from then on won't be able to take it anymore? Or will the players have to remember this? Thanks in advance!

@WatchItPlayed 7 күн бұрын

Players will need to remember, but I think you'll find this doesn't cause trouble in practice.
