In this video, I take a look at The Night Cage, a game for 1-5 players, ages 14 and up.
From the publisher:
You awaken in the dark, your skin cold, your mind blank. You have nothing but your fear, a flickering candle, and a question: How long will your light last?
Trapped and crawling your way through a pitch-black labyrinth, equipped with nothing but dim candles, you must work together to explore the maze and escape. Unfortunately, your weak candlelight illuminates only your immediate surroundings. Worse still, horrifying Wax Eaters - monsters who despise the light - lurk in the suffocating darkness for their opportunity to strike.
The Night Cage is a fully co-operative, horror-themed tile-placement game that traps 1-5 lost souls within an unnatural labyrinth of eternal darkness. To win, players must each collect a key, find a gate, and escape as a group.
Escape won't be easy as each player's visibility is limited by the weak light of their candle. They illuminate only tiles directly connected to their own, and when players move, tiles that fall into darkness are removed from the game. Doubling back the way you came only opens new paths, the old ones being lost forever with critical keys and gates vanishing if your light move away from them...

Want to see the game in action? Here's my single player demo playthrough -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fRndHyTSU40.html

The discard pile helps to organize so you know what potentially is left in the pile. It let's you create a strategy and it's even encouraged in the game manual. I do understand not doing it to make it easier to shuffle so you don't get 5 monster tiles in a row. Your video cleared up a lot of uncertainty though! The game manual isn't the clearest so thank you.

Thanks for the input!

I am pretty sure the tiles on the edge aren’t actually tiles they are just to represent half a tile

@TabletopJason 6 месяцев назад

You know, that would make sense. Thanks for catching that

Im pretty sure after wax eaters attack they turn into pits and only get discarded if you no longer illuminate them

@TabletopJason 6 дней назад

Yeah I think you're right. Did I miss that? Maybe I should have done another round of editing. Pretty complex game to describe, but simple to play once you start.

I just looked this up and this pops up😅😅

@TabletopJason 6 месяцев назад

Ha. It's a fun game. Will do a solo play video soon.

Here's my unboxing video of the game -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k953URgCrPY.html

I read Nicolas Cage 😝

@TabletopJason 6 месяцев назад

Ha! That would be interesting.

@TyrielFakkom 6 месяцев назад

How to plays like this take away the hype of trying a game out. What was this mess?

@TabletopJason 6 месяцев назад

Eh, not for everybody. Thanks for watching.

Rude, not helpful. -1 Internets.

Content creation tip from someone who has never published a video he has created (ask your doctor if Grain of Salt is right for you): Preparing a script, but not necessarily reading from it, would probably have made this more succinct, clear and organized. It would also have provided clear places to put chapter markers on the video for things like "setup", "turns", "end game". Cheers

Yes, great advice! I'd say of all my videos this one got the most amount of criticism and I can definitely see why. Rushed or scattered in a few places. But such is life. Thanks for watching.
