From what I can tell this looks like they did change a fair amount. I would love to see an updated play. You always do such a nice job showing the board and stuff.
Loved being able to participate on this playthrough and thank you Paul for the opportunity. Cracking game and a great playthrough (JP)
46:52 "So. We're ready to start!" lol
This is how I know I will love this game. Great rules explanation. Boy there's a lot!
Instant back. Love everything Mindclash has been doing. So thematic and the mechanisms are really fun. Thanks for the play through.
Very excited for this video! Looks to be super high quality as always. Thank you!
This was such a great, chilled out playthrough. This and the video for Voidfall made me back both on the same day. Thanks Paul, these videos might be punishing my wallet, but they are helping me make informed decisions!
Great overview and play through. Really looking forward to this KS. Mindclash always make their campaigns interactive.
So many captured witches! Thanks for a really fun playthrough. Looking forward to this game.
Thank you very much Gents. That was terrific. I like what I’m seeing. I’ve been looking for the game to get me into the mindclash mindset and plump for a game. This one could be it. I love the theme.
Massive thanks from the North…of Devon! 😁
Thank you so much for this clear and methodical explanation. I have just received my copy of the game and wanted to revisit a rules explanation. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed about learning and teaching this game before watching this.
Thank you for another great playthrough, the mechanisms of the game has definitely got my attention. Might be money towards my first Mindclash :)
Thanks for the tutorial and playthrough, Paul. Great looking game.
Thanks for the playthrough guys, very entertaining stream and the game looks great too.
Really enjoyed the teach and play through. Thanks for inviting me to be a part of it.
Really looking forward to this one!
Thank you for this teach! Great video!
Well this is a Back for me 🔥👀 loved the theme
"Nothing to see here. Have a mushroom." 😂
I've been struggling to learn this, its been on the table for a week, but sitting through this video i think its all clicked in to place. Now for a game with zero strategy lol.
Great video thanks
Great video as usual Paul, thank you.
I only wish things were different and this was cheaper, but as it stands the game plus the metallic add on will cost me a total of 120 euros, including shipping and VAT. Compare this with Perseverance, which had a tone of miniatures and was effectively 2 games in one package and cost me 140 euros total, and this is not something I can get.
I am not saying it is MC's fault or anything, just that things have changed and crowdfunding campaigns have gone over the roof for various, well known reasons, and some of us can not keep supporting this model :(
Oh, well, it was good while it lasted. Good luck to MC for another great game.
Great playthrough and through tutorial! Much more complex and thinky than i expected but it is Mindclash! Thanks Paul et all. I was hoping the witchhunters would win!!
Having watched a playthrough using the animal shapeshift module makes this seem a lot harder. The animal form really helps prevent suspicion and reduce it.
1:31:52 rulebook page 18, if you have only 1 Witch remaining you don’t remove it, you just lose 5 wisdom.
This video was filmed with a prototype copy of the game and the rules at the time were not finalised. Things may have changed, or we may have played wrong :)
There's a need for a icon on the board for lowering 2 suspicion when you get caught. It is indeed a easy rule to forget about and just go on...
also, at 2:03:00 orange player could just move one to the side to avoid being in an area with a witch hunter. it's also about tactical movement to avoid it...
At 2:18:00 I think Orange didn't took the points for brewing two practical potions..
Thanks for demoing this. At the moment, I'm interested, but there's something holding me back. For a game about witches, it seems all too easy to find yourself without any named witches in your coven. You could spend the entire next season focusing on setting up the pool / trial and still not end up winning a witch if the other players are letting their suspicion get too high (plus you'd be missing opportunities to all the other things you need to do). Given that having fewer (or no) witches gives you both an ongoing disadvantage (no special bonuses) and a significant end-game one (no extra scoring), I could see a player becoming seriously disengaged in the game. I feel like their a) ought to be some way to attract a new member outside of the trials or b) some coven-specific bonus that always remains (like a faction bonus) or c) something else. I'm sure there's winning strategies without named witches (focusing on healing, rites, points from potions, whatever), but it would not feel as engaging to me. YMMV. :)
Remember that we did forget on multiple occasions that suspicion drops by 2 when you get captured. Plus, it was a learning game for the player who kept getting captured. There are definitely things you can do to avoid it.
In no other games were so many witches captured!
regarding the divination cards, the ones that want you to have the same ingredients feel so bad in comparison... ingredients are worth almost nothing at the end of the game and keeping them for scoring seems so bad when you can brew potions that are useful and give more points in game, curing patients and having loyal citizens in the crowd is just something you do naturally for ingame points as well.
Hi Paul ! I've you tried the solo mode of Septima ? As a solo player, I'm trying to find out if it's solid ! Thank you !
It is still in development, so I've not tried it.
There's some basic information on solo mode in the design diaries: mindclashgames.com/designer-diaries/septima-design-spotlight-6/
Is there also 2 septima tokens during a 3 players game ? I thought the second one (on the left) is for 2 players games only.
With the ruleset I was working with, the token for the next round is also revealed. Mindclash we’re watching my learning game in the afternoon and didn’t tell me that was wrong. Of course, it’s a protoype, anything might change, but I don’t think that will. It’s good to know what the Septima will do on the next turn.
@@GamingRulesVideos Cool i guess it's my bad then, and u're right, it's better to know indeed ^^
@@GamingRulesVideos "In a 2- player game both visible
Septima tokens’ Actions can be Matched,
while with more players the token on the top
of the pile only shows which action will be
active next round"
So you're right, i didn't know that, it can be seen but can't match immediatly...anyway, backed day one, cause i already know that i'll love to play this game ! great video btw ^^
Will you do a solo?
Looking at the comment thread on the game, the patients should have been replaced at the start of the new season thus giving people another opportunity to use their potions up to the end of the year. At least that is how it appears. Wondering if it would be helpful to have a token to put on a patient to indicate they were healed just so no one gets confused.
Hi Trystan. The game is played over 1 year. Divided into 4 seasons. Each season is 5 rounds. There are 20 rounds in the game.
Healed patients are removed at the end of the round, not at the end of the season.
So players must heal a patient in the same round for two players to heal the same patient.
Hope that helps.
@@GamingRulesVideos I do get that but when the season advances at the end of a round new patients should come out. This was a response in the comment thread from Mind Clash. "Yes, during the preparations for a new Season, you deal new Patient tokens in place of the ones the players healed during the last Season." Unless I am not understanding correctly. Basically, as I understand it, any patients healed in the previous round are replaced at the start of a new season. So when you cycle the Septima, you would replace the healed patients.
@@TheTinnman Correct. At the start of a new season, the number of patients is replenished to the starting number (5 in a 3-player game). Did we miss that at some point?
Just to clarify. You said "when the season advances at the end of the round" - there are 5 rounds in a season. The patients are replenished at the start of a new season, not at the start of every round.
@@GamingRulesVideos At 1:34:08 you remove the healed patients stating no one else was healing. At 1:38:22 all the witch hunters resolved and you moved the season marker to the 6'oclock position, cycled the Septima and started a new season. My understanding is that this is when you replenish the Patients as well.

10:00 You dont explain w to put the Crystals on the Rite board.
14:50 First mistake, (RULEBOOK: PAG 4, RULE:3 ; ALL FACE DOWN ) (RULEBOOK: PAG 7, RULE:4; FACE DOWN STACK, REVEAL TOP TOKE ¡it remains on the top of the stack! ) (RULEBOOK: PAG 7,RULE:A; SKIP ON FIRST ROUND) so you show 2 tokens, it was to be only 1 and over the pile at L space.
We played correctly.
There is face-down stack of tokens.
At the start of the first season, you reveal two tokens, one on each space below the Septima artwork.
The tile on the right is the current round. The one on the left is the next rounds tile.
At 1:09 you did not allow the one gentleman to heal because the two blue patient's were no longer on the board. From your explanation of the rules and having just looked at the rules, those patients should still be able to be healed because you should not have removed them because multiple people are allowed to heal the same patient. Not sure why you took them off the board. As I understand it, if they do not get healed at the end of a year they get a red meeple and if they still don't get healed that meeple goes to the crowd and the patient is removed.
Could you check that timestamp again and let me know where it was.
You are right - the patients are only removed at the end of the round, so if I removed them early, this was a mistake. But they are removed at the end of a round, not at the end of a season (a round is one where all players take a turn).
@@GamingRulesVideos It was actually 1:04:13 and you did confirm no one else was healing that round so no problem with removing them.
@@TheTinnman yep. otherwise, I would have probably forgotten :)
feels little odd to have a mechanic of healing the same patient multiple times by different players....seems like broken theme mechanic..
@@vishallan I take your point. Perhaps it would be better to replace the tile after the patient has been healed and replace it with a new one. Then it does come down to who gets there first. It may require creating a few more patient tokens so you are not just putting the same ones back on the board. it would provide a level of tension about getting to a spot before your opponent. You could then have the mechanic in which those new patients, having just fallen ill do not generate a angry meeple until after the end of the next cycle of the moon. Could always include that as a house rule too of course.
