I bought this game on a whim after seeing the cover and continually thinking about it for some reason (perhaps a latent sheep fascination?) SUSD said on the podcast it was great, and that was enough. Hearing this makes me feel even more confident it will be good!
So you like it better than Clans of Caledonia? Watching the SUSD review I was not really that much interested in this game, especially since I already had my eyes on Clans of Caledonia, but maybe I should try both to make a decision.
This'll be an interesting thing to see - I'm expecting most of my plays to be at two players. Hopefully it works out, but yeah, I can see how that could be a flatter experience.
While I liked the review as always, the audio in this one suffered. Efka was much louder than Elaine, and the music was so much louder than Elaine. This means I couldn't just lay back and listen to the video, but had to keep fiddling with the volume levels :-/
Wait, did I get cheated out of 1 "sex"? I got two other terms ("intercorse" and "sheep magic"), but only two more mentions of the word "sex" after the first two. Or am I just inattentive?
Hey guys, just a small critique. I normally watch your videos with my kids. I had to scramble to shut it off as you decided that sex was the main theme of the review. If anything, can you put a warning on the videos you make that are not safe for children?
Hey Ethan, sorry you had to go through that. This is a tricky situation. I feel like whilst we do specifically use the word 'sex' a few times, none of it is vulgar and neither do we swear. So if we label the video as "not safe for children" then it gives a somewhat false impression that the content of the video is far more mature than it is. I'm not saying we shouldn't have labelled it, but I'm more interested in finding a more representative solution. If you have any suggestions I'll happily hear them out.
I am not familiar with what options exist as I do not make UA-cam videos but I can imagine there is some way of informing an audience there may be inappropriate material for children. I am not saying what you did was vulgar but it is certainly not something I want my 5 and 7 year old watching. This is a shame too as my daughter loved the "Board games are not food" song and we liked to watch your videos together. I can no longer do this without previewing your videos now which kind of ruins the experience of getting to watch for the first time with her.
Wow, beautiful opening shots. Great job No Pun Included.
I'm so glad you still do "points make prizes!"
Love your videos guys, but I have never laughed so much as I did at the “space” odyssey bit. Love it, well done.
This video was fantastic. Gorgeous camera shots, hilarious gags. A+ 10/10!

Brilliant use of Also sprach Zarathustra, Op. 30 at the 6:23 mark.
One of your best reviews, great timing.
Nice Black Mirror reference! LOL
Joshua Anderson it’s not a Black Mirror reference. It actually happened 🤷♂️. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piggate
Dennis Laumen Oh my... somehow that one escaped me.
Wow, my consternation levels went over the top trying not to laugh out load during "also sprach zarathustra" xD
around 6:50 Richard Strauss would have been so proud
I've got wood for your sheep.
I'll just see myself out.
officers arrest this man
Is Elaine wearing an Actualol Timmy shirt?
it is swanky as f o o k tualol
OMG this game actually looks amazing. Great review as usual. You make my life complete with your reviews. ;-)
OK, I lost it at Star Child Sheep.
Lowlands is a better title than Incestuous Sheep.
This review was legitimately hilarious
Actualove the Actualol top...and the giant Efka sheep!
actuasheep
Baa-ram-ewe! Baa-ram-ewe! To your breed, your fleece, your clan be true! Sheep be true! Baa-ram-ewe!
There's quite a thread opened up on my facebook feed after this about if the growth of the sheep is strictly exponetial ...
best produced vid you've ever made? 11 out of 10
how DO you …. get off? Efka? ;D
Piggate gets all the love
Very funny and informative video! Laughed so much xD
Great video, one of your best!
only thing it was missing was price point imho. but a+ fo sho.

Could you explain a little more the issues at 2 player? I was about to drop some coin on this until that very last comment!
This'll be an interesting thing to see - I'm expecting most of my plays to be at two players. Hopefully it works out, but yeah, I can see how that could be a flatter experience.
That's interesting (albeit a little disappointing to hear), thanks for the reply and another great video.
BAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Love you guys!
All that's missing are the lambs
Best video so far :)
You had me at baa.

Cool
These two were made to review board games
Wait, did I get cheated out of 1 "sex"? I got two other terms ("intercorse" and "sheep magic"), but only two more mentions of the word "sex" after the first two. Or am I just inattentive?
sadly, inattentive.
5:53, 5:54, 12:17 ;)
So, you're saying that if I don't have enough pens, my lambs get *ahem* chopped?
6:56 Is this the face of god?
You guys have never actually *seen* a sheep - have you.
I know this is just a quip but I really really want to explain just how many farm animals there are in our neighbourhood.
Clever. I see what you've tried to do there.
Thousands of farm animals... and yet, not a single sheep, I assume ;)
So, in summary, it’s not a baaaaaaaaaaaaad game.
