Quotes (from this video)
  • But you're basically gathering movies. That's what you're doing. You're kind of a you're taking a turn to either buy better seats for your theater or buying movies to play in your theaters.
  • The first game on its own would have been like a 2.5, maybe a three. Without the cards that make the game interesting, it's a forgettable yatsi-ish game where you get one reroll, not two. It's an okay game. Nothing bad about it, just like it's been done before. The cards made it interesting. and the Cars made it fun.
  • It's straightforward. It's straightforward. It's fine. I don't think again definitely didn't wow me. Like the more I talk about it, the more I'm like, I will never buy this game. Nothing against it. I just I think it's a fun enough game to play on boardame arena. I don't think it does anything particularly special to make it a game that I feel the need to own in my collection.
  • Overall, you're going around a rondell. You're kind of working around this map. It's basically it's it's a rondelle, but it's a map. You move around the board. You stop at various locations. You place down your crew. You buy various cards. You engage in combat. It's kind of reminiscent to Pirates of Marbo, just less fun so far. It really feels like Pirates of Marabo is just a straightup better game
  • It's just such a good game of just trying to figure out how to optimize.
  • My most favorite game on this list is Darwin's Journey.
  • It is not the easiest game to learn, but it's also not the hardest game to learn. one of my favorite games of all time. Incredible game. Absolutely amazing.
