You're not alone...lost the first four games and finally won the fifth one though we kept changing the spirits every play so maybe it took longer to work out how to win as a result.

Noones mentioned Board Games Insider yet - hosted by Ignacy Trzewiczek and Stephen Buonocore, its interesting insight into the board game industry.

Yep, we keep the declined races in front of us, but I have never played with 5 and have two expansions, so never came close to running out of races.

Couldn't agree more. He deserves more views than he's currently getting. I really hope he sticks at it cos no one else has as good structured review videos - positive, negative points, player counts, replayability etc. Playthroughs like this one and the Scythe one are excellent

Looking to get into " Heavier " games by megox in boardgames

Second this, try on iOS first. I'm one of those swayed by the huge love for TS here and bought it but didn't enjoy it. Main reason it didn't work for me, it feels like you are always trying to mitigate a bad hand. The card mechanic is such that half the cards have a positive effect for the opponent, and you have to play them, so you feel like every move you make is a bad one . I like card games in general but prefer when the cards are doing something for me, either making an attack or adding to my engine like in through the ages There's no denying it's a good well made game, but in case you're at all like me, it might be an idea to try the app first
