Possibly so. Most of my reviewed games come from review copies, trades, or things I pick up with sponsorship credit, as I tend to have little to no money to spend on board games, so not sure if I'll end up with copies of those as PNPs, but definitely curious to try out more of them now that I've played this one, so it's definitely much more likely now!

If I was going to take a look at one or two, do you have any requests?

Ah, sure enough, it says Reward, not Loot, thanks for catching that, that's pretty big!

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! Yeah, getting everything directly from Dan is always the best option with this game. This one is still one of my favorite games of all time, and the newest expansion Characters, makes it even better. I've got a video up from that one as well (though it was a preview using a prototype of the game) and hope to do another one of the new co-op mode before too long.

@@ChimeratAlpha Hah, you're not the first person to comment on that. Swore it was more neon green, but you are very right that it looks yellow here...

@@PurpleMoosePlays There was one other video linked from the project that also called it "green" which makes me think we can safely blame UA-cam compression. :p

Not a bad idea, but the publisher's thing was that every game was just a deck of cards and nothing else. I suppose the new publisher could change that, now that it's getting a new release!

Another possible adjustment: a means to set the difficulty level.

Yeah, I bought Wyatt his copy back then too! Just recently got ours though and finally dug in. Thanks for the comments, this is Wyatt's third video now and I think he's doing great!

Thanks for the comment, agree with everything you said!

Thanks for watching, glad you're enjoying it! Assuming editing goes as planned, the Quant video should be up this Friday!

Ah, good call, that would have been a lot of fun...

@PurpleMoosePlays next time! 😃

Yup, realized just how few pictures/videos I took when I sat down to record this, sorry...

Not at all ​@@PurpleMoosePlays. The video was still very informative and gave a great idea/tease to the stuff you were talking about 😊

It's generally quite a bit more challenging than this showed, I got very lucky here. Sure there is some luck from the order of cards, but multiple runs would help with that. Good call on the cost of those buttons in hand vs on the table. As for the other games, it's quite different. Fishing Lessons is a programming game, which this doesn't have, and Glass Gardens is a much thinkier puzzle to me, so this feels unique compared to those for me

Hi! I am the developer for the game - so I have a lot of experience with it (and certainly some bias towards it as well!). I would say it feels quite a bit different than Fishing Lessons and Glass Garden when playing it. They may share some things like abilities for swapping cards around and whatnot, but the overall goal, game flow, hand management mechanics, and theme is quite different. I would also say the challenge ramps up quite a bit on the harder difficulties for Hyperstar Run, and there is a Challenge Mode for the game which requires you to also gain an Achievement while playing to win. So if you want levers for difficulty/challenge level, the game comes with a lot of options for you.

Thanks! And yup, curious about their other games now!

Threads of Fate is the only one I still haven't gotten to yet (it's sitting next to me on the table sneering at me right at this moment, lol). Emerald Flame is a lot of fun and definitely the meatier experience compared to Morrison, so if you want a bigger game, definitely that's the one. On pure experience alone though, I think I'd have to go Morrison. The theming, story, and ways you interact with both really made it my favorite PostCurious experience. In any case, you can't really go wrong with any of them!

Sure enough. Rereading the card, I'm inclined to agree with you, thanks!

was going to say "promoting Quark to duty officer, I feel sorry for you" lol

Well not exactly an error, you just always discard, but I think at times on top of your deck is a better play

@@nigelbuckle3759 Thanks, yeah, I knew that rule and may have forgotten to say it. You're definitely right that I should probably use it more, but am always thinking about cycling the deck.

@@PurpleMoosePlays Say you need a ship, if you gain one and have a card draw ability, instead of discarding it, put it on top of your deck. Then you can then draw that ship you just gained.

@@nigelbuckle3759 Good point, I definitely need to pay more attention to that part.

Thanks for making it! For whatever reason, I've connected much more strongly with this game than Imperium, despite having little to no Star Trek knowledge. What that means though, is that I am now driven to go back and play more Imperium to see if it sticks more now!

😊

@@GamingRulesVideos Agreed, we need expansions!

@@PurpleMoosePlays Box 2 playtest copy MIGHT be on the way to me ;)

Thanks! I try not to shill too horribly often, but it's in the description of all my videos since the sponsorship started.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "nuvoly".

@PurpleMoosePlays It is located inside box number 3

@@mickeyrock8082 Means the warehouse?

@PurpleMoosePlays no, no... there is a tile with some clouds and inside a rail and a river... always on the box number 3! thanks

@@mickeyrock8082 Ah sorry, never unlocked that one.

Glad it helped, thanks for watching!

Great to hear that it worked with a 5 year old! I'm sure he'll enjoy it, as it seems to be right up his alley, and unless it grows much more complicated, it seems to be right as his level as well. Have you had a chance to try Zombie Teenz? I know that it upped the recommended age level by 1, so I'm curious how much more difficult/complicated it is.

@@PurpleMoosePlays My son loves anything Halloween, zombies, and fighing, so it was pretty much a slam dunk for him. As you unlock content, the rules get a little more complicated, but he was able to handle them. I haven't tried Zombie Teenz with him yet. I am also curious if it's significantly more complicated.

I will have a video of Flashback Lucy next Monday, and I do show the first few cards, but yeah, I cut out early again. I think we've talked about this before, but in future videos of things like this one, I'll consider a full playthrough of the first "scenario". As for Harmonies, I was curious, but after having played on BGA, I think it's a bit too abstract strategy for my tastes. Thanks for the recommendation though!

@@PurpleMoosePlays Gotcha. But I'm kind of thinking you're selling Harmonies short here. I'm also not a fan of abstract strategy, but the theme here clicks so perfectly (something than can't really be said for, say, Cascadia or Calico). Sure you're making strategic choices and it's not a banal game (though it's family weight for sure), but you actually see your mountain ranges grow in your little domain, you build your forests and make the rivers flow bit by bit, and invite all kinds of animals to settle in. Probably not something that BGA can't really capture, also because the components are top-notch quality and so satisfying to hold in your hand, and the graphic style is unique. It's been a huge success with every player I showed it to so far.

​@@Kumagoro42Ok, you've convinced me to look further, because funnily enough, I enjoy both Calico and Cascadia, as well as many other spatial puzzlers, not sure exactly what about Harmonies didn't work for me

​@@PurpleMoosePlays I also resisted Harmonies at first, because it looked to me like a more complicated Cascadia. I only bought it kind of begrudgingly because I found a good offer and I saw how fast it was rising on the BGG leaderboard so it qualified as "must have in my collection". It also has strong Azul influences, though, so that's probably what eventually did it for me because Azul is my all-time favorite in that genre.

@@Kumagoro42 Ah see, that changes things dramatically for me, as I haven't ever enjoyed a play of Azul, and I've tried several times.

Good call! Though DINeS would be better, as I'd get the energy for not using the wild!

My pleasure, thanks for the awesome design!

Glad you enjoyed it! I'm looking forward to see what else you've got coming!

Lol, just caught myself doing that the other day while recording. Understood and completely agree, but not sure I can stop my subconscious reallys, lol
