Codis just had forgettable names that Tom seems to forget they already reviewed it when it was called Codex Naturalis and in a tin container. Wonder why they changed the name from Codex to Codis
Did it really “introduce”? Orchard 9 card solitaire (2018) has tree “icons” that get “spent” and you gain more tree “icons”. Walking in Provenance (2019) has layering where you can “spend” icons to gain more “icons” like wind mills or sunflowers if you want to be more specific with “icons”. I don’t know, I haven’t played all games with Layering mechanism, but if Codex Naturalis was the firstnin something, I guess that would be interesting.
I would argue Mastermind is already a cooperative game with limited communication - the person who knows the solution wants the guesser to guess eventually.
Not playing by the actual rules it's not. You're supposed to play an even number of rounds alternating roles, and the codemaker scores a point for each guess the codebreaker uses.
Why did they feel like they needed to rename Codex to Codis? Makes no sense. What do Codis even mean? Other than that must say that I like this style of speedy reviews with a rundown.
Diatoms has a nice and puzzley solo mode for those interested!
Thank you for the great video!

Codis Naturalis (formerly known as Codex Naturalis) introduced the core mechanism of Meadow: spend cons to gain icons to gain points!

Would be great to have top 20 small box games- or top 10 2024 small box games. Love a small box game Codex is one of my favourites.
I have to say, they are clearly mushrooms. Not bells.
Came here to say this 😂

Quartz: Dice seems like a poor man's Dice Miner, where any strategy has been removed completely.
That's what happens when you over-mine...
wich games did you play that you play with six people in 15 minutes?
Happy Salmon?
