Description
Destinies is a competitive, story-driven, game of adventure and exploration, mixing an app and a board game.
The first in a series of games using a brand-new system called Destinies. This game is set in a dark medieval-fantasy universe.
The Destinies system offers a fully story-driven, app-supported, RPG-like board game experience, without the need for a game master. Each scenario depicts a part of a vivid world, full of dark stories, epic NPCs and mysteries to solve. Each player takes the role of a hero on a quest to fulfill their destiny. Each destiny is a final goal of the character and has at least two, completely different paths to victory, composed of branching series of quests. Players compete with each other to push the world towards their own destiny.
The game uses an app and the Scan&Play technology to offer players a unique story-driven experience full of dynamic events, epic adventures, and an ever-changing game world. Each turn players discover new parts of the world presented on tiles, explore them and pick one point of interest to visit. There they learn more about the story and make crucial choices of how they want to interact with people, creatures or situations faced there. The consequences of each choice are meaningful and often change the state of the world forever.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is the most prestigious board game award in the world.
- We're going to talk about the two big categories of the awards. Number one is Spiel des Jahres, and then we're going to talk about the gamers or Kennerspiel des Jahres, the gamer's game.
- If I would have these three candidates, which one would win? There's no doubt. I think this is the most original board game that I have played this year.
- It should have been Spiel des Jahres. No, I mean don't get me wrong. It's a great game.
- So, what would be our pick if we would have these three nominations? Well, we agreed on drum roll, please, Blood Moon Colony.
- We'll need to financially recover from buying all of these games.

Quotes (from this video)
- I don't feel any pressure to create content.
- This is my full-time job, right? I don't have another job to go to.
- I'm producing all of this content and honestly, if I could produce more, I would because I love what I do.
- The category here or the criteria here is massively popular, really well-respected, solid Euro games that have been around for a while and stood the test of time and are known as just really, really good games.
- No games do. It doesn't need all of the bling and everything else.
- I think most people in life are affected by what's called seasonally adjusted disorder.
- Entering is absolutely free. It doesn't cost you anything whatsoever.
- The secret word this month is haggis.
- All of my advertising revenue from all of my videos goes to charity.
- I don't make any money out of the videos themselves on YouTube. People call me crazy. They would be right.
- It's only 70 to go.
- I have not. No. Not Not even heard of that one.
- I would strongly recommend you just do it because you want to do it. Don't go out and spend £4,000 on a fancy camera, lights, and everything else and think 'Right, I'm going to be the next big channel and I'm going to get 50,000 subscribers in 6 months.'
- One thing that really annoys me is when the games come out at retail like the same time or even before and they're cheaper.
- I personally believe it is fundamentally, morally, and ethically wrong for me to sell a pre-production prototype copy of a game.
- It's International Unplayed Games Day. And the date that I've chosen... is the 1st of July.
- I have already got two of them on my channel, if not three, and I'm doing another one next Wednesday.
