Quotes (from this video)
- We're not going Analog Podcast anymore. It's the Going Analog Show.
- So, we're going to do a pal- pallet cleanser, right?
- This is not a campaign on the website like this is not a campaign cuz that's what you think because even on the back of the box I'm looking at right now it says non-campaign
- from that tableau, you're trying to combine some um different cards that your word qualifies for, but they have to be orthogonally adjacent, and you have to be able to trace a pathway through the cards that you're going to score.
- There's this extra puzzle element of not just like, oh, I'm not rewarded for just the longest word. I might have the longest word, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's going to score well.
- if I pick these scoring word scoring tiles over here, I can make a pretty good word. But, if other people also use the same scoring cards, then the value of that card goes gets lower and lower.
- So, if you've played Point Salad, this feels very much like Point Salad. There's going to be a But with fruit.
- Each basket will have its own scoring condition based on what fruits are in that basket.
- the rocks then you could keep them in your discard pile. They're worth a point each or fill up your bonus baskets with rocks, which eats up one of those three spots.
- It is mean, but because it's so easy just to get more fruit and more baskets, it's not that big a deal.
- he threw a rock down making it impossible for me to meet that goal because I need three specific fruit for a high value and now he a rock is eating up one of those spaces.
- It is mean, but at the same time it's like Too mean, but adds a layer of strategy to the game, you know?
- It's It was garbage day when we were recording today.
