Thank you very much for this great playthrough! I love watching ypu two play together. You are great! I am seriously thinking of buying this for my young niece for this holiday season. She hasn't yet played any worker placement games and I think this would be great introductory one, which also has a great theme right for her.
Our copy just came in a couple days ago, so my wife and I have been planning to play it later today. Thank you so much for the excellent teach, and for some strategy tips sprinkled in the playthrough! Can't wait to play it myself!
Loved that you have zoomed in the board, hope you could also do that with the cards, sometimes it’s hard to see. That being said, I love what you do. Always watching your play through
Oh no, this actually looks so much fun!!!! I've been waiting for this game since last christmas, and I only just convinced myself I don't need it because it's "too easy" and there's no solo mode.... But now I want it!! Thank you for the amazing video as always!
This is one of those nice medium-light games that provides just enough little extra to keep it engaging, like Transmissions, Downforce, Quacks, Luxor and others. It looks great, the cover is phenominal - Bosley of course. I've seen MvM's 2p video and now yours, and both times everyone avoided the really big items and I'm curious how someone would do just fulfilling those. Thanks for the video, I hope you all have an enjoyable holiday season.
Great game - I immediately went to the web sites of my favourite stores and none of them have it in stock.... Worker placement is my family's favourite game mechanism. Thanks for sharing.
What a cute take on worker placement for the holiday! Adding to my ISO list for next year for sure. Also, the dog-tree plushie on your mantle is adorable. 😊
Thanks I enjoyed it and glad u did this side of the board I listened once and watched twice! Also btw I saw that u got a special edition copy, what number did u get!?
On the last turn Naveen placed a 3 (4) point ornament when he could have got 3 blueprints and completed a 6 point card. So shorted himself 4 points there. Anyways good game as always
I love a good entry-level worker placement game to help introduce others to one of my favorite mechanisms. I'm hoping to get this one played this weekend! (Might have to wait until NYE though, we'll see...)
@@BeforeYouPlaythere were a few videos where i couldn't turn Kling On (lolz) but don't think it was a big deal. Can't remember which. Love what you guys are doing btw!! One of my fav channels!
Love the look of this game and would be an instant purchase for me if it wasn’t for the fact that I’m still waiting for Elf Creek to deliver the Kickstarter I backed 3 years ago (Atlantis Rising).
Hello. thank you for this video and for the meticulous work you bring to us. there has been no further news from the publisher of the Kickstarter campaign since August 2024. Do you know anything at your level? thank you in advance for your answers. Regards. Loïc
Hi! Thank you for your kind words. We originally made this video for the limited-release print run that they had for this game at the end of 2023, so we're not actually connected to the Kickstarter campaign. We can try to see if there are any updates from the back-end, and if we find out anything we'll let you know. Thanks and so sorry to hear about the lack of news.
Hello again, the information regarding the fulfillment of the campaign seems to be quite limited, but what I've been told is that they are working very hard to fulfill all outstanding campaigns. However, Santa's Workshop will not be fulfilled in time for Christmas =/
Does anyone know about a similar type of game like this one? Here in The Netherlands, Santa's Workshop isn't available, but I like the gameplay of building toys and set collecting. Anyone who can think of a boardgame that's similar to this one?
love how you guys teach the games, one of my favorite channels to check new games before buying. thank you!!!!
I'm on a roll! I've played this one too! It's pretty straight forward and easy to teach. I love how the ornaments fill up the tree as you play.
We’re excited to play with the family at 4 players in the next few days.
This was very fun and perfect for the season. Thanks for the play through and Merry Christmas!

Just played this last night with the advanced rules! It was a good family weight worker placement/engine building game.

I watched a basic play through and I thought eh, it’s OK but this is so much better! It is now on my list!!
Glad you checked out the video and found it helpful!!

We hadn’t heard of it until they reached out. We are suckers for holiday themed games and this one surprisingly stays on theme the whole way.
"You have to listen to a seminar" 😅🤣😂 - great job this year, thank you for all your hard work. Merry Christmas 🤶 🎄 🎅
Haha definitely Santa is selling a Time Share 🎅🏼

Awesome video! Thanks so much for doing it. :)
Our pleasure!
@24:00 Naveen should have received 4 metal from Glogg, because Glogg already had one metal training.
You’re right!! Hopefully that mistake didn’t compound!
Nice play through. this looks like a very enjoyable light work placement game. and...Happy Holidays to you both (and Dexter).
I’m glad I clicked - I didn’t realise there were 2 modes of play and this mode seems a lot more interesting 😊
Glad you watched! Thank you for always supporting us ☺️.

Thanks for checking out our video! Hopefully there will be an update on availability soon.
Elf Creek Games still has the first Christmas printing copies available. They are limited edition and numbered. The game hasn’t gone to retail yet.
$40.00

Looks like great fun! Add to Cart!
Thanks guys.
Have fun!
❤Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas to you too! 😄

No Klingon subtitles but I’m sure you guys played flawlessly!
Fixed! Sometimes we forget to turn them on ourselves lol 😂.

@32:33 Naveen changed the elf. It was supposed to be Glog not Nog
You have a lot of videos which is a great thing! I cant watch them all, so can you list the videos where you played abstract strategy games?
En tout cas, c'est le bon moment pour presenter ce jeu. Merci pour la video et joyeux Noël.
what a cute game. thanks for the incites to Holiday Cheer.
Looks like a fun Christmas time game...
Love the look of this game and would be an instant purchase for me if it wasn’t for the fact that I’m still waiting for Elf Creek to deliver the Kickstarter I backed 3 years ago (Atlantis Rising).
Hopefully 🤞 that gets resolved!!
Nice game :)
Will you do a top 10 of 2023 list? I'm curious to see what were your top games.
where are you guys finding this game to buy? its out of stock/out of print everywhere

Really hope a solo mode gets mad efor this but looks like a pretty approachable wp game with a cute theme :)
There already is one in the works in bgg.

This game will be available in the Netherlands from January. Unfortunately too late for Christmas (but well in time for Christmas 2024 😉)
@@Karnivob Wow, glad to hear that! 😃 Don't mind the 11 months I have to hide it in my Kallax 🙃
Lol 😆
Looks like a good game, but going to have to play reindeer face-up because I hate memory games!
