I Don't speak natively English but I wanted to inform you that your accent is very clear for foreigners. Thank you for this nice video.

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

That's wonderful to hear! Thank you for watching!

@RobertLink 5 лет назад

Any game where the two major stats being tracked are "friendship" and "pie" is all right in my book. By amazing coincidence, those are exactly the two stats I track in my day to day life!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Glad I could help you find a game that fits into both your social life and diet! I suggest not eating the pie included with the game though, as it may cause indigestion.

@brittanynguyen3794 4 года назад

Especially pie. Pie good.

@natileeluna6822 2 года назад

Very helpful video! We came across a scenario we weren’t sure about. If two players are in the castle simultaneously, does that trigger a pie fight? Thanks!

@WatchItPlayed 2 года назад

Hey Natilee, check the section of the video based on making deliveries - you'll see that it would be impossible for two different players to be in the castle at the same time.

@themaster408 5 лет назад

@Bada4ever 5 лет назад

Thanks for this video. This game still feels like it is the same in complication as the original game. Granted the original is simple once you understand it. For example, My First Stone Age is so much more easier to teach and play. I'm still thinking about this one though...

@killab6420 5 лет назад

Quick question. If two characters are sent back to the home base on the same turn only one is rejuvenated, but can I choose to keep a character on the home space to be rejuvenated on the next turn? Seems like the answer is no since I could just keep a character at home to keep earning pies or spells, but can you clarify? Thanks!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

You can only be rejuvenated after losing a battle, so staying at your home base during the next turn will not trigger the rejuvenating effect again.

@DiegoDeschain 5 лет назад

As a sucker for good looking games, this is one of those where I just go like "I don't even care if the game is good, I want those minis", they're so god damn cute!

@DiegoDeschain 5 лет назад

PS: jokes aside, the game does look hella fun. I definitely wouldn't mind owning the original AND this one to play with people new to board games as a less daunting first experience. And did I mention the minis are freaking cute? :P Also, great video as always, Rodney!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Thank you kindly Diego!

@boardgamequeens 5 лет назад

So just so I’m clear after a pie fight you just lower your pie count by the dial number and not the sum of the dial and the magic spell card, if used?

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Correct!

@boardgamequeens 5 лет назад

Watch It Played thank you so much! Excellent video as always!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

@martinarocha5335 5 лет назад

You said that you can't take the same action your next turn, but are you able to come back around to it and take it on your third turn? Let's say I take the move action on my first turn, and on my second, I take the seek action. Am I then able to take the move action again on my third turn?

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Yes!

@johnathankarch4484 5 лет назад

So... I've see this both ways. Your pie fight dials had something holding them together. My game doesn't have that. What should I use?

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

They are little plastic clips that come in the box. Did you maybe throw them out accidentally? I’d contact the publisher about seeing if you can get a replacement.

@johnathankarch4484 5 лет назад

@@WatchItPlayed I'll check again, but I looked pretty good before. Thanks though for replying. .

@toweypat 5 лет назад

If you're eligible for a trophy but your friendship is low, when it gets back up again do you get your trophy right then? Or do you have to earn it again?

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Assuming at that time you still have the requirements, you earn it right away. This is true for most things, but not all. For example, if you go above 2 in friendship and still have 8 or more pies, you can claim that. On the other hand, you can't deliver 4 gems while you have 2 or fewer friendship, and then 'claim' the trophy after you get to 3 friendship again. You'd have to be at 3 or higher and then deliver the goods. Make sense?

@hobychou 5 лет назад

Patrick, once your friendship is back up to 3 or higher, you can get the trophy if you still meet its conditions. Certain trophies, like deliveries or pie fights, would have to be re-earned since their requirements can't be "held over" until your friendship is back up.

@darrencarroll3123 5 лет назад

Loving the game with my kids. Quick question if anyone knows the answer? You're only allowed to place a trophy once per turn, but what happens when during a turn you could have potentially placed two or even three trophies? Do you automatically place one during your next turn? Please help! This happens quite a lot in the game!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

During your next turn, when you would be able to place another trophy, you place one. Basically, if you’ve met the criteria for a trophy and you haven’t yet earned a trophy on your turn, you must place a trophy token. Hope that helps!

@darrencarroll3123 5 лет назад

@@WatchItPlayed Great, thanks!

@jimmzik9295 5 лет назад

I believe you can never go above 7 Pie’s in a fight but let me ask as it isn’t specified. If I have 6 Pie’s on the chart and a 3 Magic Spell can I then throw 9? I believe 7 is the highest you can go (total) but I want to be sure.

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Seven is the highest you can set on your dial, but cards can cause your total to go beyond that (so you're example above, 6 pies + 3 magic, would be allowed).

@Jimzik100 5 лет назад

How many actions can you do in one round

@WatchItPlayed 3 года назад

You take 1 action on your turn.

@cindykee3719 5 лет назад

I think the box says for Ages 8 and up. I was wondering who has played it with their 6-8-year-olds, and was it confusing to them or did they do fine keeping track of all of the rules/gameplay? (My boys are 20 now and I can't remember how adept the 6-8-year-old crowd is at things like this. Ha! Ha!)

@umm_maymona53 3 года назад

I play this with my 4 and 7 year old (with their older sisters) and they have no trouble keeping track of the rules, well the 4 year old needs reminders sometimes.

@WatchItPlayed 3 года назад

It really does vary from kid to kid (and adult to adult even)

@wademonnig3556 5 лет назад

If your first pie fight makes you drop below 3 friendship, do you still get the trophy!

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

You would not get a trophy in this case. The pie fight trophy is for winning, and by then you've already lost the friendship!

@wademonnig3556 5 лет назад

@@WatchItPlayed ah, got it. Thought that was the case but in the video, you show blue losing friendship below the threshold but then you awarded blue a trophy after they win the fight. Thank you for the clarification!

@danton8302 3 года назад

Wasn’t this supposed to be the My Little Pony version of the game, I remember seeing a variant of Scythe developed by the creator for his daughter, have a feeling Hazbro said no when he asked if he can publish it 😂

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад

Not at all, play the games that interest you!

@Hahahahaaahaahaa 5 лет назад

I really like this adaptation but, I'm going to be honest, I think this is a little much for a "My Little" version of Scythe. Yes there is slightly less to do and less units to control, but Scythe (though wonderful) has the most things to do possible, so "less" is relative." And the change to "if you're friendship is too low you can't gain trophies" seems really silly for a kids game.

@Ogrecrusher 5 лет назад

I like the friendship rule, for a kids' game you don't want some meanie spending the whole game being spiteful. If you keep attacking people you literally can't win.

@WatchItPlayed 5 лет назад
