Really glad you guys are back--you have become one of my favorite channels to preview games before I buy! This one will definitely be on my MUST BUY list. From being worker placement to the theme (Books and libraries! Witches, ghosts, and wizards!) to the puzzle-y aspect, it checks off all my boxes! Thanks for the great review.
I was waiting for you guys to play some of your GenCon purchases. So glad you started with this one. As always, I love watching you two play games. And Anthony, nice Overwatch shirt!
This looks like a fun game. I'm kinda new to the game board universe and It took me a little while to figure out the gameplay but i got it eventually. While I was watching this there were moments of silence where I thought phone froze lol
It's an ok game, but i don't see why would i ever play this instead of "Great Western trail" , or "Terraforming Mars" or dozens of similar titles, which are with much more interesting mechanic, more involving and have actual strategy ( Ex Libris is just deck drawing with some minor tactical decisions, and if you got lucky with the card draw, well you win and don't even need much planing )
I've considered this a number of times, but I think it would distract some people from the gameplay. Also, finding music that's royalty free and enjoyed by everyone is not easy.
I haven't played the game but from what I can tell by their video, you obtain the 1st player token by visiting the Diviner's Hut. Frances never went to that space to take it back. I could be mistaken though.

Thx! The shirt was one of my many GenCon purchases...
YOUR BACK! Love your guys' content
Excellent playthrough!!!! Thank you so much for teaching and playing it with me at GenCon.
So happy for a new video! And definitely not upset that it's Ex Libris. :)
Cool play through. Good to see your back!
Thanks for the play through! The new table looks great 👍
Thx! We made the table as soon as we got home from GenCon. Love it!
Hi! I am from Brazil and my English is not very good but I would like to congratulate you on the channel.
Excellent review, was hoping to run into both of you at the Con to say hi but maybe at Origins nee year
We will be at Pax Unplugged in Philly...

Welcome back!!!

Super jealous; looks great! :D

HITFORDCYCLE1 who did you pre-order it from?

Pretty cool for a game that at its core is Rack-O, but with extras - Get some cards and put them in order.
Just a suggestion, but not sure it will breach any law. Maybe can try playing some music in the background as certain moment, it is just silence.

Are you supposed to pass the first player marker each turn? She takes turn one first then he took turns 2, 3, 4 first

That makes sense, thanks!
