WEEEEEEEEEE
~ Boris Johnson
If I ever travel back in time, I'm bringing Shobu with me and I'll make the current world 0.00001% happier thanks to it.
The fact that the stones aren't uniform gives it so much more character
“I am white, I control the white stones on each board. You’re black, you control the black stones on each board.” - Adam
You have gotten me interested in Board games. Been going through all your videos for this channel. Thank you for sharing your nerdy passions with the world, be it wrestling or Board games. Thank you Adam Blampied. You're without a doubt, my favorite UA-camr ever.
Welcome to the hobby
@@xxMattDankyxx
Thank you very much.
Been playing DnD for almost a decade now,
But the world of Board games is so wide and expansive, and just so much fun that Im happy to be here :)
@@lobokujo7825 it's deffently expansive! Some time to expansive! But go to a game cafe if you have one local to you and join BGG. Just be careful on BGG with the ratings because even though games are highly rated some of them a very challenging.
Same man
This is the first time I've ever seen my name pop up in the credits of a UA-cam video. Very excited to "Be On Board!"
Every minute Adam explains this, the more my heart beats in excitement. INSTANT BUY (now to try and convince someone to play it).
Instant buy for me too!
The hardest part is finding someone to play with when it comes to more think intensive games
would love to see a "Lets Play: ShoBu" with Laurie. I need gameplay!!!
So about that....
A board game masterpiece in the studio? This should be fun!
Also, Adam's wearing a CBW T-Shirt! CBW return to PFK Confirmed!!!
I made a proto type / demo version with checkers pieces and printed grids to see if my dad liked it, he LOVED IT!!! So bought a copy for his birthday , great find, cheers guys haha
I love a good simple abstract game, and I am definitely going to try this one! This might be another one to teach my duders that are into chess like games but get easily frustrated by them!
Oooooh, I think my brother would love this one! I bought him and his girlfriend Hive for Christmas and they texted me later on just saying "you nailed it", so I bet they'd have a great time with another less thematic but differently challenging game about moving things around!
All the ways you described Shobu make me think of Go (except maybe the short turnaround time, tbh); Adam, if you ever have the chance to dig in, I think you might love it
Loved this review!! Hadn't heard of Shobu till this video, but absolutely excited to try it now. Thanks for the delightful energy and the haikus too!
Great review! You have captured the spirit, challenge and beauty of the game perfectly.
So glad to see you covering this game! It’s hovering really close to my top 10 favorite games!
Love it. Bought it! Thank you Adam for these videos!
These videos are fantastic for building my board game collection. Thanks guys!
Hoping Adam’s t-shirt is a BTE-esque Easter egg for a certain RPG coming back to our screens…
NRB is well on its way to being the best board game channel on UA-cam.
More content from Adam is exactly what my life needs, and it needs it NOW!!!
Great job again! I love these Masterpiece videos!!
Adam: Everyone, look at the child!
Grogu: 👁👄👁
I loved everything about this video. The humour is so amazing and British!
Great review - and a wonderfully entertaining video! Thanks so much. Subscribed!
I'm beginning to suspect that Adam doesn't like children.
Really? What gave you that idea?
For breakfast
You don't say....
I wasn't into board games but thanks to this channel and Adam i am now thanks
Very good explanation about the beauty of the game. Thank you.
Heroquest. A classic that everyone needs to know about...for a recommendation.
I see that CBW tee Adam. Is this a sign of things to come?? CBW return confirmed.
Adam the spirited away reference with sut creatures is perfect and we all praise your editing
Is anyone else bothered that the closing haiku is off by one syllable lol? Despite that, awesome video!
Thank you for this video. This game caughty attention in the thumbnail but you brought it to the next level.
As I was watching I was like "I know this voice. I've heard it before but about wrestling." I'm glad to know I was right :D
This game was highlighted at my local game shop in 2019 -- I think the publisher is local to CT -- and I bought it immediately. It's brilliant and accessible, and new players really enjoy it. It's like the board game version of Tak that way. So cool to see it highlighted here!
Are you at CTCon this weekend?
@@kev_whatev I wish! They're hosting CT FIG, which is always a blast, but I haven't made it in a few years.
Take a shot every time Adam says the word board :)). A cracking video sir!!
Love your style.
I would be interested to hear your opinion on Go. Recently started playing and immediately wanted to dive into learning its complexities.
A white stone going super saiyan is one of the best thing i saw on youtube. Give your editor a promotion adam!
You are so funny, I now listen even when not caring about the game ^^
Great game, got this for christmas in 2019
amazing job
I'd really love an episode on Carcassonne.
I'm sold. Ordering now. Great review. This is exactly what I was looking for.
Also, please destroy that kimono thing. 😁😁😁
Pretty sure it’s a dressing gown not a kimono.
I’d love for you to cover Unmatched!
Damn I love this channel
I cant wait for you guys to get Fultilty: The Game of Life. Its a new board game from the channel Good People Association and I told them to send one to you.
Love this episode! Shout out to the rope sniffing edit at 4:37
Mmmm, the hemp rope smells so good and somehow familiar....Also explains the "oh, I throw a stone by accident" comment.
"Push the child" really caught me off guard. Needed that laugh
Any chance of a game of this on Patreon? - would bee keen to see you guys play.
Adam is one of the few people that I shall allow to make fun of me with minimal counters.
I'd really love to see Betrayal (any and/or all), Quacks of Quedlingburg or Survive! All cracking games imo
Or, maybe some small, cheap card games like 6 Nimmt or The Crew.
Quacks is excellent! I love having it.
Are you gonna play Nemesis in the future?
I see you wearing that CBW shirt....bring it back!
Loving the t-shirt. C B DUB! C B DUB!
I love it because it looks like I could build my own for about 10 bucks, including some fancy oil to make the rope smell good.
Question: what happens if you knock a piece that isn't on an edge? Is any collision a 'take'? Or do you just nudge them one square over?
No, only stones knocked directly off the board edge are removed. You can still push opponent's stones on the board without taking them off if you need to. You can in theory push a stone two spaces without knocking it off, but in practice it's much more likely you'll push one off the edge.
You are very good at that thing you do Adam and Co.
Id take a game of Shobu now, and join a cult if youre starting one.
would love to see a masterpieces video about a libellud game - Dixit, Mysterium, Obscurio.
Mysterium absolutely deserves it. Haven't played the other ones, but I quess that those are great too.
About to enjoy another NRB Vidya
Adam : " Are you sure you want to go there " 😐🤔
I like this editor. I'll take all the anime cutaway gags.
How about a video on Tzolk'in or Power Grid?
Adam is so damn charismatic
Sitting in a board game themed cafe called Draughts.....then proceeds to call the game draughts, checkers. lol
Wait...do Brits not call Checker, Checkers? I'm not sure I can take this after learning the word Cluedo.
Adam is the High Hefner of board games. No I don't know what that means, but that robe certainly does
War of the ring is a straight up masterpiece
Reminds me of Tak from The Name of the Wind. Simple to play hard to outthink you opponent.
There's a board game version of Tak that the author collaborated on!
I just received this game for Christmas. I’m excited to play it, but the rope is far less aromatic than I was lead to expect.
I feel Smallworld is a masterpiece!
It is literally impossible to watch this channel in public 😂
Is the intro Adams audition tape for John Locke in a Lost reboot?
It’s slightly easier to grok if you lay the boards out correctly.
Why must you tease us with that CBW t-shirt?
"would it be racist not to....?" Made me laugh out loud. Great video guys.
adam i hate to say this, but aren't haiku 5-7-5 syllables?
Can you guys pleeaaaase play Go????
One Punch Man and Miazaki references in the same video I am spoiled.
9:27 But now they've lost a stone because you move 1 to the right on a passive move (white board) knocking a stone off of the black board.
This game reminds me a little of Onitama
8:50 Just move the Light b2 stone to b4, then KO on the dark board, still with a threat to win next move?
Nicely spotted. I can not analyze this situation without understanding the EXACT position of the black stone on the upper right board though :)
I F'N love the game ShōBu Y'all!
Well, add this to list of things I must have but dont actually need.
You should add these reviews to BGG
This is very pretty, but I’m definitely going to just play this with a checkers set
But the rope.?.?.?.
@@joshfrench5858 Someone got it for me for Christmas! My rope is scentless 😢
@@kev_whatev lmao 🤣 hope they kept the receipt.
You should do an episode on chess
CBW return confirmed!
picking up stones from a beach and taking them home is absolutely un-tory
as someone who hasnt read or written a haiku since my 7th year of school and had to google it to make sure YOUR haiku was correct, good job Adam. You're a regular Yosa Buson.
You should change the “Game On!” things to say “Get On Board!”
As for a board game masterpiece to recommend, I would say Tsuro.
You should look into Tak.
It's in his 10 great abstract games list
Nemesis | Board Game Masterpieces
Plz make "Push the Child" a shirt with a picture of a stone on it
the rules 4:55
Reminds me of go. Best player was this blind girl. Then an ant person
i thought Cao Cao played this game in Three Kingdoms
Did I just see まっくろくろすけ?
"I can explain this in two minutes" *takes five minutes to waffle before he tries
The worst part about being addicted to your content is that I have no one to play board games with. So I will live vicariously through A. Blampied's videos.
Video idea: How to get board game friends.
push the child!!!!!
Chess.
