Haha i was also wondering what was happening. why is he on opposite side?!AAAAAAAAA!! Was he under duress, was he trying to secretly call for help as he was being held hostage, being made to do a review against his will?! Lol
I can't help but notice this game is set to hit shelves sometime in November/December. Hey Tom, how about a Top Ten list of best/worst games that capitalized on a holiday season release?
Certainly won't play itself. The timing and collaboration between players gives games like these another layer that isn't obvious from the rules themselves.
@@albinoorkalbertson I'll agree that video didn't really do the game much justice. I think if you enjoy Escape, you will likely enjoy this too. Exploration seems higher in Escape although this is targeted to a younger audience.
Hi there, I had contacted modipheus about a solo variant. I've uploaded an unboxing, setup, play, review and playthroughs over the past three weeks via a press copy. They're on my UA-cam channel and bgg :)
@@ccggenius Yes it is nothing, I looked at it and thought ”sigh” just more grey plastic. Why bother licensing a popular IP if you aren't going to to make it the best you can. It should be colorful and exciting (like the characters it is based on) for the whole family. Even Po's action figures looked better.
Probably alot more expensive if they are painted. And these games are usually pretty expensive to start with. But I would love them painted, it just makes it so much more engaging.
@@sistakastet As for price I am going to have to use Tapestry as a example. It is priced about the same as other games of its size, yet Jaimie was able to offer people a premium product. It is all about budgeting. With the licensing of a popular IP like Kung Fu Panda its mass market appeal and potential for higher volume sales could have easily offset higher production costs of prepainted miniatures. It is all just about budgeting and they didn't want to, so now it is just another dime a dozen miniatures game. Below is a interview with Jaimie were he talks about production costs and the decisions that go into pricing: ua-cam.com/video/TPpNH5SLQzw/v-deo.html
@@Aikuchi. speaking of budgeting, getting the rights to a really recognizable and popular IP is also really Not Cheap. I imagine that bites into the "making it premium" budget quite a bit.
Po was last seen protesting in Hong Kong.
My friend painted these up and it is the most immersive game I own.
Tom is on the right and the shelf is on the left!!!
Dogs and Cats living together! Mass hysteria!!

Furious 5, not Fabulous 5!
Fabulous 5 does sound cool though..
You can choose for one of the above gifts
thx, think I really get the style of the game.
hope I can get this in Germany and play it with my kids. they love Kungfu panda.
Looks like the game plays itself. Once you start rolling you just apply results and keep going. Not every game needs to be complex, but this ...

Ben Boersma, very true. That's why I watched the play through on the Kickstarter. They worked very hard to have fun.

The review says 2-4 players, but the box clearly says 1-4.

Darn, looks great but a timed game. I suck at timed games. Pass for me.
Timed is optional
@@oneanotherstudios Yeah I know he said that. But if your going to play it the way it was designed you use the timer. So there is that.
U got a shoutout on southpark
I watch Tom Vasel like the girls in South Park
If ever a game needed to come with prepainted minis :(
I mean... they're pre-shaded. That's not nothing.
