Quotes (from this video)
- This is uh probably my favorite from the three new All Play games.
- Kabuto Sumo Dice is basically Strike with the Kabuto Sumo theme.
- it was quick, it was snappy, it was a fun game of just chucking dice and then trying to be the one who wins.
- It's not going to win any awards for highest deepest strategy, but if you've played games like that like Strike, then you'll enjoy and appreciate the general chaotic and craziness of it.
- Bunny Kingdom Town is a two-player version of Bunny Kingdom which my kids are currently obsessed with and so I am very happy to have this.
- it doesn't feel like it's a Bunny Kingdom game. So, for better for worse, I don't know if it's going to feel like a Bunny Kingdom game.
- Sometimes a two-player game can be really really good. Other times it's just a way of selling another version of a game you already own. That might be this, and um it worked.

Quotes (from this video)
- Number one is these are the upcoming crowdfunding campaigns that I have as of right now.
- The things will change, things get cancelceled, things get added, things get pushed off, all of that will happen.
- I try to focus on those that seem to have the most interest or attention.
- So, this usually is going to be campaigns that have 500 or,000 followers or more.
- And I'll admit artifacts did have that. The problem is like what used to be like, oh my gosh, that's so incredible, that's so cute. That's so great. Now is colored with like that's good, but like is it real though?
- It removes some of the magic and wonder of artwork.
- That said, they do have a specific specific little tag over here saying no AI was used in the making of the game.
- I really I really hate like AI has I have mixed thoughts on AI.
- I think it ruins our sense of wonder.

Quotes (from this video)
- It's more expensive for US buyers because of tariffs. Tariffs cost money. We are passing that cost on to you because it's your country that's making you pay that, not us.
- a $200 board game, which is a lot of money for something that is not crowdfunding.
- I will admit I got a lot of sticker shock at that price point.
- Origins always in a weird space for me. Again, I love it, but also feels like it's declining every year. The board game presence feels like it's dropping each year.
- As a general convention, it's a blast. I have fun. I will probably go back every single year.
- I've slowly been cutting back in that effort of maintaining balance in my life.
- The things I enjoy the most with the expansion are probably small like card hunting abilities.
- It's such a challenging puzzle. I really enjoy it. Highly recommend it.
- I also think it still suffers and and is in the shadow of Bunny Kingdom for me.
- I think it is certainly not a Calico or Cascadia replacement for me.
- Ultimately gets priority over Flip Seven with a Vengeance, even if I am chasing that burst and like a few casual viewers and all that.

positive
Pros
- Quick, simple, fun game

- Every play session makes the reviewer want to play another game directly after
- Rewarding and fun every time it's played
Cons
- Constantly checking number sequences is detracting from the experience

- An arena
Comparison games
- Kabuto Sumo

Quotes (from this video)
- This game is a fun beer and pretzels game, figure out the best way that works for you. But official rules, elbow on the table, and chuck your dice into the arena.
- This is a prototype. All rules and components subject to change.
- While this review is not sponsored, All Play is a channel sponsor, and so please take any potential bias into your account and decide whether that you get value or what value you get from this video.
- I want their arena to constantly be changing in drastic ways whenever that's rolled because that really makes it feel like the wrestlers you choose really impact the game state.
- I do wish there was more wrestler variety. I do wish the wrestler abilities had bigger game shaking changes.
