Frank, my wallet hates you. I mean, I was still deciding whether or not to buy the game but your video convinced me. It's like when designing this game they looked at three of my favorites (The Isle of Cats, Fire in the Library and Calico), took the best elements from each, and voilà! Same universe as The Isle of Cats but simplified in both setup and gameplay, fire triggering mechanic which adds for playing more strategically and gives you a "visual timer", and the campaign/scenarios idea sounds really exciting for great replayability. I just can't wait for it to arrive! :D
Are the scenario books (more specifically the score sheets) available as a pdf? I could photocopy the sheet, so long as it's standard size. Just thinking longevity amongst all the family members playing it, over time. Regards, Marc
Hey Rob, that is correct, you have to play them all. This does mean you may be forced to play a pathway card onto the island that you don't want to play, and you may want to keep this in mind while planning who should play when!
@@CityofGamesHQ So if I get into situations where all cats are exhausted and I have 1 card in my hand. I need to put it somewhere on the board and then place a fire. I will not be able to discard it right? Just double checking :-)
@@CityofGamesHQ Sounds like you’ll need pictures of players cats walking on the fire tiles to show some paw-lidarity with the islands poor inhabitants.
I'm sorry to hear that Tah, it makes Race to the Raft a fantastic game but if it isn't a mechanism you enjoy then I'm glad you found out now rather than after you purchased it :)
