Description

Village Attacks is a co-operative castle defense game in which players take on the roles of the most infamous creatures of folklore and legend from around the world! Deep in a remote part of the world, you and your monstrous associates have taken up residence in an immense castle. But the local village has had enough of the evil that lies at its door and has decided to lay siege to the castle in an effort to exorcise your wicked taint from the world.

The villagers may be weak, but they are not alone! News of your malevolent presence has spread far and wide; hunters and heroes have come from all corners of the globe to vanquish you! Some have come for fame, others for the glory, and some even for the reward. But they share a single goal; your doom!

  • I was horrible bird that couldn't fly. What was it? I ended up being that one bird that couldn't fly.
  • If I weren't such a classy professional, I'd run into the garage and look, but um
  • The voice tends not to age as quickly as the rest of us.

Quotes (from this video)
  • And I think that's awesome. That's a beautiful question, actually. A human question.
  • I I I I love that. I'll just I'll just leave you with this thought.
  • So, we are um I would say we're a little behind on questions, but we're going to go long today. I think longer than we normally go. We'll try to do a semi- lightning round. Some quicker answers to some of the questions I'm seeing.
  • So, we call that a village attack. A village attacks moment is when anyone forgets something and then suddenly remembers and blurts it out.
  • And I I think you have to choose, draw, especially when there aren't things going well.
  • I don't want to do a negative review of a game. First of all, it's my own opinion, number one, and I'd rather share something that I think you'll like. Like, oh, let's take this moment to poop on a game that someone worked really hard on. Why? For what purpose?
  • I think if there was someone that I worked with or something that I loved that I read, I would definitely do it.
  • And I I I I love that. I'll just I'll just leave you with this thought.

Quotes (from this video)
  • This is easily on this shelf. The most checked out game. Wonderlands War I see played every time.
  • Foundations of Rome despite how big this game is. It gets checked out all the time.
  • Everyone's really upset with Grimlord Games cuz they never delivered their last Kickstarter, but another company has picked it up.
  • I don't I still don't understand why companies can't put names on the sides of their boxes. Come on now.
  • Frostpunk, the board game if you're ready to have a depressing day.
  • I think Mosaic is a fantastic civilization game. So fast and easy to play.
  • People love Smashup. I have almost everything for Smashup, but it just barely gets played.
  • Probably Twilight Imperium is my favorite of all these here, even though I don't play it that much.
  • Last Kingdom is a kind of a really fun game from Games based on said TV series. Uh but pretty good. Think Game of Thrones style.
