Spokes | 2 Player Variant Playthrough

hi everyone I'm Tom today I'm going to be playing spokes again this is the second playthrough I'm doing if you haven't seen the first one yet I'm going to explain what I'm doing as I'm going but if you would like to see the normal setup then I do have another playthrough this is the two bike variant for two or three players we're going to be racing vdrome racing on bikes on that this is on Kickstarter right now I'll put a link in the corner of the screen and in the description to the campaign page if you would like to see how to make it happen see what all the final stuff is going to have this is a prototype but it should give you a good idea of what the final game will be like I'd recommend you turn on the subtitles to the Kling on channel and I think we are ready to race so basically we just have two bikes each that is the race but you have to alternate these bikes a little bit so I am the first player I can choose either of my bikes right now but say I choose the pink bike to activate next turn I've got to do the orange one then it resets and I can do whichever one I like these little cylinders are our bikes the boards are all two-sided so you can just flip them around so that your bikes have the same team on them the cylinders are double-sided as well I'm going to be moving orange first so you need to put your spoke marker somewhere and I think we're all having a similar idea here I'm going to start behind the pink so you move it one to three spaces and then the last spoke you moved over is the one that goes in your hand you need to swap this with any spoke on the board but you need to move over that spoke on your turn I'm going to swap it with this one here so the green one comes into my playboard if I can keep hold of it where the pink one was and I now have to move move along the color that I placed so that's going to be pink as many spaces I like in one unbroken line I can stop at any point but I have to have moved over this piece that I just put in so here's the piece I just moved in I'm going to move here and we are trying to win at the end of three laps it doesn't matter which one of our bikes comes first so my marker goes on to remind me that I can't do the orange bike next I'm going to have to go for pink Marty is going to activate his white bike first and I said I think we've all got the exact same idea at the start any anyway uh he is going to swap out this blue for a pink so that goes onto his board now and he is going to zip along just in front of me and he won't be able to do I'm doing the wrong color aren't I it's the white bike he wants to move there we go exact same stuff hi Marty real Marty's just coming to inspect how glass Marty's doing it's a very fragile thing for you to walk over Marty although this is a dual aay board so it's not as easily kicked around it's co not to tea time so he is creeping for Treats but there's an important bik Grace happening Marty Okay pink is going next and we're moving along pink again and I can actually where would it be good to end up here we've got a nice little run of light blue if I went all the way could make a tiny run on green but not as big so I think yeah stop there white comes in here and now I can take the markers off because I can choose either bike next turn Marty needs to go with the black bike and wants to get in on all of this pink action but he's going to have to swap a piece in here so he either has to go along to that non ideal spot or he has to kind of stop way back he would activate his slipstream tile to the adrenaline rush side this would mean in a future turn he can pretend that any spoke is a color of his choice so he could move a bit further but I think he's just going to choose to move a bit further and hope that that works out afterwards so he can choose either of his bikes next turn as well I'm going to go orange next and I'm going to move two spaces and I think let's grab light blue here swap it out for that white and I am going to have to stop a bit early because Marty's in the way but it does mean I activate my slipstream Marty's going to go with white he's going to swap out this pink for a blue and it'll be useful to have a pink as we come back to this section maybe for a nice Zoom forward and he is going to go a few spots ahead I need to move my pink bike and unfortunately I'm miles away from blue blue would be ideal it's got to be dark blue that kind of gets me up here do I really want that yellow I could kind of end up here or green I think I'm going to go green just to get me closer to Blue next time so I'm going to swap just say this piece out and I'm just going to go one measly step but I can do either bike next time Marty needs to do black so he can do green yellow or white he's going to go one two three for white and go out a little bit there again like we haven't got pink we're not swapping pink back in it's all kind of bunched up I'm going to go pink next next and I'm going to activate my light blue swap out this pink cuz it' be good to have one later and I'm going to zip ahead a little bit so over here we could maybe get something going with white next time it's not going to be huge it'll be fine M he going to go for yellow on his white bike swap this one out and just move a couple of spots forward I've got to do orange next so it's that green dark blue or white I'm going to say white and we're going to swap this pink one out to be white and I'm going to use my adrenaline rush to say that this is a white as well so we can move one bit forward M got to his black probably got to be yellow but he's in his own way a bit he's going to go for dark blue and stay a little bit behind try and set up something it would be nice to have a bit of a pattern later though he's got no dark blue now I'm going to move my orange with yellow just get it in front a little bit nearly at the end of lap one Marty was going to do green with his white bike but now there is no green oh actually he could still come this way he was planning on doing pink later or he could just stop early and then he's got a decent run on pink or he could move his black bike first let's have a big run on yellow uh oh not that way this way and he will go zigzag all around to end up there pink is going to go for yellow but be blocked off by Marty so get the adrenaline rush or getting a bit limited on M colors White's going to have to go next is too far away from from Pink and it's actually quite blocked off so is going to let's just do green end up down here hopefully ready for a big pink run but I think a few of us are I'm going to move pink first and go long pink so let's swap this out along here I'm going to hang on to the adrenaline rush and we're on lap two Marty's going to have to move along green I think he is going to he can't really get in my way he's going to make it so he's still pink and in range of pink next time I Marty orange is going to move on white and do a similar thing just try and get in front and zip along to there white is going to go along pink though and I think go one little bit further and disrupt the blue that I was planning actually Zoom all the way along here so everyone's on lap two now I think everyone can move whatever bike they like pink is going to move one two three and get white and swap out this blue here and zip along to these yellows that will hopefully work out although not really helping out orange very much Black's going to move one two three and try and take advantage of these pinks that we're building and zip along here orange can do pink now but everyone else is in the way okay we'll swap this one out and zip along there white next white blue white probably move three to this white and swap out the this pink hopefully be useful later and get stopped by me and so get to activate the adrenaline rush pink is going to go one 2 three and activate yellow this might end up actually helping out black and oh might's covering up but luckily I remember is going to use their adrenaline rush to move would normally be here but he's going to treat this one as yellow actually why not leave that as it is to hold up Morty and Swap this one out cuz he'd still be moving over it can still do it so pretend that one's yellow and then he can go all the way kind of around here and this has got a bit of a blue what's coming up blue getting back onto the pink he needs to swap out a pink really doesn't he so pink is on lap three white is going to move along dark blue zip there but doesn't have any yellows to take advantage of this route orange is a little bit stuck as well and Pink's getting a bit knocked over o orange is going to go green and zip along here a bit wouldn't it be amazing if I had light blue that would be a lovely run there unfortunately I don't but I think pink has got a really nice route to possibly just win this black needs to go next and has yellow so can pop that in for a nice little zip along here and has pink to do another zip along but then won't have a yellow to kind of complete the third lap pink is going to go and 1 two three do light blue and I'm going to pop it here so so that we have a yellow later I don't know if that's going to be enough so I'm going to move along blue to there black is going to go and Advance on the pinks but then where do we go from there we want up there he hasn't got any yellow or we can stop here and he could do a bit on green but he's probably going to have a problem there he's going to go all the way okay orange next so what I got pink green blue so pink moved me a tiny bit green not very much blue a little bit further oh and I'd be on yellow yeah let's go oh we need to put black on the third lap blue and I'll pop that in here and zip along there and yellow's next can get on the third lap but we'll be behind these guys white does not have yellow unfortunately blue and white White's kind of going nowhere Pink is coming up a bit oh that could help yeah we'll go 1 two three get some light blue involved and go there be useful to have yellow later it seems like these guys still stuck on lap two now pink needs to do some stalling to get on yellow I think and only White's going to do it so how can we move on white to keep us set up on yellow here and win we'll just swap that out and move one probably next turn pink can win well not next turn because Orange has got to go next to the turn after that can black do anything anything about that no can only move on blue and green at the moment and yellow is the kind of key to getting out of here so what if 1 2 three we just did a bit of a strange loop back to get that yellow could that be the key I don't think it's going to be enough though is it I don't think there's anything that pink can do to kind of change and make a nice rot through for black could try and mess it up a bit though let's see orange is going to move and just kind of make this route perfect already end up here I don't think there's anything really that white can do about it so whatever white disrupts pink can just put back so orange is on the third lap too moving on blue or white can't really do anything about this yellow would be lovely but isn't possible so cane change this to Blue and we'll say we'll use the adrenaline rush to say this is a blue and that's a blue and mess up the root a bit but we can come right back to Pink's turn swap that for a yellow again and Zoom around and win the third lap so white was yeah still on on the second lap in the end but pink has won it you see with a bit more like you have to look ahead at what colors are coming out and also try and set up your other teammates as well like one of your bikes can just be trying to set up a pattern but you've got to leave yourself with options and also if you're going to make these long routes you need to work out a way of getting those colors back but there we go that is the two bike mode of spokes if you haven't seen it yet you can see my other playr of a standard one bite game that would be the way for two to six players there's a solo challenge mode where you get your six different random spokes another six random when you take one off the board you discard it instead and place the same color from your supply on there So eventually you're going to be running out of the ones in the extra Supply and the ones on your board you skip over any spaces where you haven't got a spoke and you are trying to do three laps in 12 spokes essentially as a challenge and there's also a team mode for four or six players where you play like this but different players are controlling the different bikes and you are trying to coordinate your teams to Victory too well there we go uh you can check out the kickstarter in the link in the description that's got all the final stuff on it how to make the game happen how to get a hold of a copy for yourself and there are hundreds more playthroughs on this channel if you'd like to see some more from me thank you very much for watching this one though and I'll see you for the next game bye everyone [Music] oh [Music]
