Lockup is definitely an under-rated worker placement game...the hidden info, almost blind bidding really makes the game with that extra tension. I have this expansion but haven't gotten it to the table yet...looking forward to playing it though!
@@InterferenciasRGYes, still playing it...and the expansion is fun. The escape route is just another way to get points, but the hero or whatever at the bottom that changes each round adds more fun deliberation.
I played many games of the base game with all player counts and so far I've played once with the expansion. I totally agree with the review. The expansion is great and I think I'll probably almost always use it going forward. The only reason I might not is game play time; for an AP group like mine it adds more stuff to think about and does slow the game down quite a bit. Enjoyable, but doesn't fit in the same time frame it use to. If we have the time though I'd always play with it.
@7:01 Glad to hear this adds diversity to Lockup. It was sorely missing POC representation. I'm continually heartened by how much progress the boardgames industry has made in this regard. Cheers!
Joking right? First off I think he meant gameplay diversity. Second, the world of Ulos has SO many different races and colors. Gnolls, kobolds, frogkin, dragonkin, vampires, trolls, goblins, etc. They have skin colors red, green, white, black, purple, etc. Surely you aren't serious about POC issue with this universe? It's not even relevant here.
