How to Play Wonderland's War 

A couple of small rules mistakes. First, when you bust in battle, you do not move your leader's strength to zero, only your battle strength. Second, the "increase strength" cards in the tea party phase (little swords) increase your leader's strength, not you battle strength. This is a great game and not nearly as complicated as people are making it seem in the comments. Once you start playing, it flows nicely.

After listening to these rules i can understand why everyone in wonderland is a bit mad.

Wow how simple to set up and play.....

The aesthetic of the game looks great, but these rules and setup seem real complicated. I’m sure it probably flows once you get used to it, but I fear introducing this to new people

Wow the artwork just looks gorgeous. Take my money!

I'm not gonna lie, I zoned out a little at the begining because I thought this was the Cones of Dunshire.

This indeed - for some reason - seems overly complicated... And I say that while games like "On Mars", "Lisboa", "The Gallerist" or "Cerebria" and such are leading my top 10 list. I'm confused, but maybe, maybe that was the plan all along!? xD

It took me way too long to realize this was just a competitive deckbuilder.

Either I'm really stupid or this game seemed extreeeemely complicated because I understood none of it. I guess I'll wait until the gameplay video is uploaded!

Look I am all for complicated games but this game will leave you mad as a Hatter from what I'm seeing, also really looking forward you guys doing more villainess videos

First off this game looks super complicated and being a beginner gamer myself I'm not too sure if I could get other people to play with me that won't get bored and/or frustrated trying to figure out the game. Second of all I will get it anyway because I absolutely love Alice in Wonderland and the game looks gorgeous. Third her shirt, her shirt is adorable.

Games looks fun and well produced. To get the nice version with the plastic discs, distinct meeples, & 3D printed character standees it costs $115 and you have two large boxes (you get both upgraded chips and cardboard chips) with $20 worth of shipping. Otherwise almost everything is cardboard and still costs $50. There is definitely a lot in the box but i have a hard time paying the high price tag for this particular game. I hope I don't regret passing on this one.

This game looks really good! Also, while complicated, I'm not turned off by the rules. I think that is because of the art quality and narrative context made by Skybound Games for the game itself. That said, one might say that the rules were designed to drive players to...madness?

This game is a lot of fun, and they have changed the rules in post production since this video came out. The gameplay is much clearer now (still a little fiddly, but nowhere near what it was.)

6 mins in and I still dont know whats the win condition or even the goal of the game

In other words, this game is: Drafting + area control + deck building + additional rules to make it asymmetric Drafting - you choose what you want to do from the available options Area Control - you score points primarily from having the most power in an area Deck building - you want to upgrade your bag of chips with better chips as the game goes by Asymmetric - each character plays slightly different than the others

I see those meeples!

Very good explanation! Clear voice, good speed, interesting intonation, nice cuts and video detail insertions. The game isn't my direction, but I will look some of your other videos, just for this good critics.

I'd play this if it was a video game. It would be so much less complicated if a good portion was automated

Rebbeca FTW

Hi saw that the video is 2 years ago old... i assume more rules have been changed

I'm new to board games and looking to pick up my second one. This game is absolutely beautiful but holy crap, the rules. Rules seem so complicated. Don't know how I'm going to try and get friends to join me on this if I'm already lost. I'll just have to wait and see

"In this fantastical fight for frivolity..." I want to know how many times it took to say that one :) Great video! Thanks for showing us how to play!

Best rules summaries on the Tube.

game looks like Rising Sun in Wonderland theme. Becca though looks gorgeous as always lovely outfit 👌🏾

Is it just me or does it oozes bad tackled on design all over it?

This game is a blast. Me and my two sons love it. Thank you

This looks like an over-complicated and over-produced mess with a pasted on theme. Seems like little to no strategy with random luck draws and die rolls.

wow that looks great. i love the pink and black colours. the board game looks alright too.

A major mistake in this tutorial is you do not reduce your leader's strength after busting, just your Strength marker on the battle track.

I look forward to the GtG of this one. I watched the Skybound Games stream & couldn't quite follow it, but an edited playthrough should sort that out. Also, what's Oshi's favourite cocktail I wonder?

Yes this game looks like it is a lot. To be honest it is easy to play and just a ton of options for you to have when playing. Now it does take quite a bit of time to play especially with first time players. But if you like a hefty game and don't mind 2hrs of game play, then this game is for you.

Awesome video Becca and team. Keep up the great work.

why must we make games so complex, Off with their heads!

Looks very interesting. Thanks for your clear explanation !

Tea Party Cards. Don't you mean "Tea Cardies"? :P

Queen Becca Scott is the one and only Queen of Hearts! ❤❤❤

Does anyone know where I can buy this game? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

This may be a silly question but as it’s been two years since this video and I’ve only recently had my kickstarter copy arrive.. are the rules still the same? 😅🤔

Have the rules been revised since this video or are the rules still the same? Just ask so I don’t ask people to watch this learning the wrong ones 🤗

Thanks for a great, succinct how to play!

This game looks fun as hell.

Throw all the mechanics together and hope for the best.

Hi Becca, i have two questions about rules: 1) you set the leader strenght at 0 (on the sword space)... but the rulebook says to set it on the '1' space, and this is visible also on the image at page. 4 (E); 2) you say that if a player have no more supporters in a battle region, they are busted... but the rulebook says 'if you have no UNITS left...", so this includes also leader and wonderlandians; 3) you say that if you are busted, the leader strenght fall to 0... but in the rulebook this one is not mentioned. Maybe is there an updated rulebook different than the printed one included in the box? Thank you!

I'm interested on the background music you use. Any links so I can enjoy hearing it?

Is Becca the last person making content for this channel?

Today I'm leaving feedback of my personal experience. It's not meant to be disrespectful in any way, these are just my personal experience and thoughts. I think it's a shame that while your content is high quality as far as hosting, set and filming/editing goes, I always end up going to other sources for "how to play" videos. While most of them aren't nearly as nice to look at, a game as complex as this should be introduced more thoroughly. Take some time to really show off the material, for example. Make little interludes with suggestions for token storing, or comments about the characters and such. The density of information thrown at me always makes me turn away. There are already a number of channels out there doing the "super quick rules" thing. In this setup I'd prefer a more thorough look at the game, an actual introduction. This video has my head spinning half way in and now I'm once again off to find an alternative that I will find easier to watch and grasp.

OMG this looks unnecessarily complicated 😮😮

Wow, my 8 year old is really gonna dig this!! 😨

Does anyone know what music is playing in the background? It sounds pretty nice especially for this game 😮

Beautiful game. Too much setup for my taste.

Are the cones a metaphor? Well, yes and no...

Well, go watch ManVsMeeple if this is unclear. It was for me, and I can see that I'm not alone. Link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-19A1hI_02SI.html&feature=emb_title

Reminds me of Quacks & Blood Rage / Rising Sun, but way wayyy more overly complicated. I’m sure it will do well.

Women go crazy 'bout a shard quest man!

Vsauce says "hi"

I miss the table top game videos

Clear and easy to understand. Thank you!

Hmmm doesn't look like my cup of tea (Get it!? 🤣)

I got a different set of stuff for my version and mine is a five player game.....

Where can I buy this game? I can't find it anywhere, only the closes Kickstarter page

Is this Becca's alter-ego Reb?

6:24 If you bust your leader strength is reset to 0?

Quick question for anyone that might know: Is LA By Night no longer a part of G&S? I saw them streaming with a S4E2 title on the World of Darkness Twitch channel. I couldn't track down any references to a season 4, so I'm curious to what this show's standing is.

How do we get more WIl Wheaton and Tabletop?

why is she so cute

That game looks too busy :/

What’s happened to this channel? There used to be so many updates with games and live action RPG... now just one or 2 updates a week? Kinda disappointed. I viewed this channel as the best geek and gaming channel on RU-vid. I can’t say that anymore. :(

Becca is Queen of Hearts, she got mine long time ago...

I have no idea of what I just watched xDDD

Why is almost every game 4 players or less? Pffft. As a group of 5 we immediately skip any games that we can't all play. Pitty.

I just love Alice in the wonderland it was the best and the looks awesome

I’m here for the sweet, sweet cringe. And because the Queen of Hearts commanded it.

This board game gave me an idea for a tabletop rpg campaign. I’m going to have to work on this...

don't keep oshi waiting

Just seeing this on a table convinced me to avoid the game. Who has the table space needed for this thing lol??

Geek & Sundry

this game is a HUGE nah! imagine teaching your friends who only see you once every 2 weeks lol

So….why wasn’t she wearing rabbit ears, or dressed like Alice? 😂

Way too complicated.

but on ks page is written 2-5 players 0:11

Eye candy

2+2= 4, is all I learned

Oof, thanks, Beka, but no thanks.

Looks stunning, the game is ok too

I feel like she's making up everything on the spot and it isn't real.

ribbon/scarf/choker i dig it

Jesus christ, Cones of Dunshire must have been simplified version of this. It almost feels like a parody of a board game.

Teach me all games plz

Is TableTop coming back?

Honestly seems dull.

I need a wife who plays board games

This theme doesnt make sence for the game : /

So cute host❤

For anyone wondering about the weird scarf, it's because Shayna Bazsler bit the back of her neck during the last WWE RAW

U need to move the teleprompter slightly closer to the camera

Why make the red queen so ugyl!? Instead of a harley queen like queen.

I applaud anyone who has the patients to play these games, they do look fun. Catan is as far as I go. Cute host xo
