The game is so serious there are constantly sirens in the background. These are some dangerous lads playing a dangerous game.

"Are they building a baby?" is the line that made me fall in love with Shut Up and Sit Down back when they were on PATV.

@g8kpr3000 7 лет назад

This is by far one of my favorite Reviews by SU&SD, it even made me rush out and get Kemet... Truly this review is just Clever, it's clever... it's really... clever.

7:12 Apparently this was a joke by Mark Twain, and mummies were never actually used to fuel locomotives.

@IslanKleinknecht 7 лет назад

I've always wondered, were those guys walking by at the beginning just REALLY well-timed good fortune, or were they people you knew?

@Pandaman64 6 лет назад

4:05 the most ironic bit is that if the table is filled with seasoned kemet players, the game will be just as slow as any other seasoned war game. Since you only get points for winning as the attacker, being the first to go out and get to a temple is highly discouraged. So the better everyone gets, the more likely everyone is to sit and wait and upgrade and upgrade and maybe next round.

@Legbee42 3 года назад

Just bought this a month or so ago, and I love how you've reviewed it. Im honestly looking at you like the Alton Brown of board games, by the way you interact with the camera and the audience

@markyturner 7 лет назад

Also, on Cyclades vs Kemet, as you say both are great - but I personally find Cylcades auction mechanic to be more intimate. You are directly tussling with someone else's mind in real time, rather than taking it in turns to pick things. But this is picky, both are fun. Cyclades is easier to teach.

@rparadize 6 месяцев назад

itd be cool if they combined both games into 1 somehow but it would probably be a long game

@genli5603 5 лет назад

The mummies thing was a Twain joke. But...Brits used mummies in oil paints. Grind them up and make mummy brown! Not kidding!

@stevejmc79 7 лет назад

@henrikwakman7776 3 года назад

This was a riot. A+ on the witty, concise yet laid back vibe. I'd watch anything with you having an opinion about something.

@frankuru92 7 лет назад

Thank you SU&SD for opening me up to a whole new world of gaming! Already purchased D&D: Wrath of Ashardalon, and Imperial Assault. Next on the list is Kemet!!!

@SinOfAugust 6 лет назад

Surprisingly, this video had definitively answered the pressing question of “if British Empire was a person, would it be a cat lover or a dog lover?” Choo-choo!

@Johnny-vi7oq 3 года назад

To be fair. Queen Elizabeth is kinda the personification of the British Empire, and she's got like, 30 corgis

"Are they trying to build a baby?"

@anthonypearson2509 7 лет назад

I'm a big fan of Scythe and I knew that it borrowed elements from tons of other games--seems like Scythe is really Agrarian Steampunk Kemet (from single turn activation, quick transportation around the board, combat similiarities).

@suyangqin4372 6 лет назад

Unfortunately crusade is a battle specific power and initiative is a day time power, which means units killed via initiative do not give income, only units killed during battle somehow counts for crusade.

@jameswoodard4304 4 года назад

There's no way Cyclades is pronounced like that! It's SIC-la-DEES! (Or apparently KIK-la-thes in Greek)

@Electroporcupine 4 года назад

They know that now

@DP-ot6zf 2 года назад

Everyone with a decent pair of speakers paused this video at least once to hear if the sirens were in the video or outside their own residence.

Making me laugh at a joke about stillborn babies... Quinns FTW

@shundoraud3908 11 месяцев назад

I tried this game with some of my friends for free at my game shop and after we got an understanding of the game, it was an explosive game where victory points kept swinging all over but at the end it was still anyone's game. We went home talking about it all night and basically all week so I went and bought it. Not a real strategy heavy game; it's a more bombastic party night game

@iphatbass 3 года назад

Will you review updated version of Kemet?

@matthewhutchings9184 2 года назад

Love your videos man. Keep it up!

@metalisticpain 2 года назад

Having played GoT I was able to grasp the concepts and win on my first game despite my friend having played before. Got lucky even though he had scorpion of doom, I had the upgrade for a larger than normal army, extra movement (I think) and cottoned on to the VP = win battles. I just avoided his doom stack and went on an unstoppable Daisy chain against small stacks 😃 was very fun. Only played it the once though.

@khristienpennanen1810 3 года назад

@rnghwdbcs 5 лет назад

It is still my favourite board game review ever.

"The 2012-13 Egyptian protests were part of a large scale popular uprising in Egypt against then-President Mohamed Morsi. On 22 November 2012, millions of protesters began protesting against Morsi, after his government announced a temporary constitutional declaration that in effect granted the president unlimited powers."

@SteveVerstaka 6 лет назад

So it's the combat from the Game of Thrones Board Game with a bigger focus on aggression rather than playing the politico, and each 'faction' starts as a blank slate that can be tailored any way you want compared to each Great House in GoT being locked into a certain playstyle based off the starting location and notable persons decks? And no sooner do I type that comment Quinn literally says this.

@angeloa9041 8 месяцев назад

I doubt you see the comments on 6 year old videos but the "mummies in trains" thing is an urban legend

@joshuajonas84 7 лет назад

very nice video and well done. this game has moved to my wish list. thanks SU&SD

@wizzardoffuzz 5 лет назад

Right. Now I need to know 2 things. What happened to the supercomputer and where can I get a wham bar from?

@GuiltySpark1817 7 лет назад

It just seems right that a police siren can be heard in the background at the 2:00 mark, eh?

@Shenaldrac 5 лет назад

Mummies were also ground up and used as pigment for paint in Britain :D

@jameswoodard4304 4 года назад

The linen wrappings were also unwound and used for bandages during wartime, and sometimes aristocrats would buy mummies, have them shipped home, and then unwrap them as a kind of party game to see what kinds of amulets and such came out. As far as the animal mummies go, I don't mind so much. Egyptian temples killed and mummified so many animals to act as divine messengers that some species were almost completely wiped out in the country. More than 4 million ibis were found mummified at a single burial location, for example! While we're on the original subject though, let's not forget about the Elgin Marbles and the Benin Bronzes...

I like Shut Up and Sit Down, but the mispronunciation of Cyclades makes me cringe literally every time.

@Hieronymus-Pseudonymous 7 лет назад

It might have been correct at the time - I've heard that the official pronunciation was changed multiple times.(What is the correct pronunciation, by the way?)

@StupidstuffidoCoUk 7 лет назад

its named after the Greek Islands, pronounced sick-la-dees

@genli5603 5 лет назад

There is also their pronunciation of fief and coup... lol

@RationalOrc 6 лет назад

i'm not sure I would even call cyclades a war game. it's really more of an auction game than anything else. THe potential for glorious violence is just adds looming anxiety.

@aureliusnoble 7 лет назад

This has probably been answered somewhere else before, so sorry, but I was just wondering if you intended to do a Gloomhaven review before the reprint Kickstarter ends, like you did for Kingdom Death?

@sugoiben 7 лет назад

They've said elsewhere that they weren't able to squeeze it into the kickstarter timeframe, but when it gets an eventual retail release they would like to review it then.

@notjux 7 лет назад

I wasn't too frustrated with Quinn's alternating pronunciation of "Cyclades" until he did it 10 seconds apart at 12:43. When you're at the point that you can't make up your mind from one sentence to the next, you really need to cut the shit and commit.

@@Klosterliv doesn't sound economically viable really, the rarity and novelty alone would made them more valuable to collectors than their value as fuel, unless they were in a pinch it does sound weird.

You thought burning mumies in steam trains was bad? Wait until you find out that we shipped them to europe for unwrapping parties and crushed them to a fine powder to use as a medicine. Also, why does this 6 year old video only have around a hundred comments?
