Hi Rodney,

I just bought this game and this is a great intro! I have watched lot of game plays from Rahdo (as everyone speaks about him in this thread :)), but your reviews are certainly the best spoken and most clear. Many thanks for your excellent job!

I have one question to the rules - can you place your scientist in an action space where there is already a scientist of another player (assuming you have a programmed bot for that action)?

Thanks!

Did i just Witness Rodney lose to him self :) , Keep up the good work nice touch with the Rahdo bit.

@AndrewGPeterson 11 years ago

We need to see Rodney on tabletop with Will.

@AndrewGPeterson 11 years ago

Enjoyed the sample.

Watch It Played, Rahdo runs through style.

@Blazur 11 years ago

Great format for this video. I'd love to see you do more of these, they're very informative.

@bencheshire 11 years ago

such a gentleman to credit rahdo! ive seen a bunch of other people who use the "Jen moves..." style without bothering. :)

Thanks Rodney for the clear explanation on how to play Aquasphere and the quick round playthrough! Aquasphere seems daunting, but with your clear and concise explanation, it makes playing easier!

@stefanhammarsten6369 11 years ago

Another job well done mate. You've successfully clarified all questions I had when reading the rules for the game. Played it last nite with the missus and had a blast :D

@Panda8ngel 11 years ago

I love this vid. You did a great job explaining everything. I hope you do more like this! :)

@maleficmax 7 years ago

Great explanation, as always. Thank you!

Im German, but i still come here to learn games. Best place to do so in my opinion!

@Scubasgamecorner 11 years ago

Great video, I have this pre-ordered can't wait to play it, Although I wish you had time to play a few more rounds.

@jacewilliams7135 11 years ago

Very well explained. Anytime I get a new game I always check here to see if you've done a 'how to play' on it. And they're always so very useful. Thanks for the rules overview! Going to try and get this to the table tomorrow!

Question, do you plan on doing a rules overview for 'Alchemists'?

@aarondovauo1471 9 years ago

Uh oh! We didn't penalize separately for the octopods... not sure if that cost anyone the game. :(
Thanks for this play sampler, confirmed we were on the right track with most of it.

Well, i see it, the next time you play with Luke, you can do the trick to pretend be your wife, so you can have a better performance.

@CritsHappen 11 years ago

Now I'm dying to know who won... 20 to 14... she's got a lead on ya :)

@DaedalusZM 11 years ago

This game looks so busy, but a lot fun. I'm not entirely sure why.

Also, you could just call the other player "Red", or "Green", or whatever color you use. I'm not a fan of Rahdo's vids (he talks too fast, seems to run off-script a bit), but it's always thrown me off when he uses his not-present wife's name as the other player. I guess I like the playthrough to be more abstracted.

@msolec2000 11 years ago

This is our Rodney. He can lose even with no opponent. :)

Pretty good example of gameplay, though. Good job. I was rooting for red because that is the color I take if I can. Blue is an early alternative, though.
