I have no problem with the self-assembly dual-layered boards, having recently experienced the horribly warped dual-layered boards in Black Forest - which were glued at the factory. It took about 30 minutes to assemble the Civolution boards, and they will be perfect for years. Whereas my Black Forest boards will forever be bent like bananas.
The long initial setup only hapoens on your first play, after that setup time goes way down(especially with the action tiles already being in the player board)
Still really on the fence on this one. I think if a friend already had it, I'd definitely give it a shot; but I'm not willing to purchase it to find out if I like it.
A one-time setup of the dual layer boards hardly counts as a “long setup time”. Do you count initially punching out the cardboard as “setup time”??? And the way you store the boards leads to a super quick setup after the first play.
Even after initial setup of The boards each play has a lot of setup. Map tokens and’s player boards too. If you store your games standing up like I do the player tokens in the boards don’t stay put in the box so you have to insert all them for each player anyway. But in addition to that there are still a lot of other things to setup with all the card’s and such too.
@ Most games will have components go astray if you store them vertically. It’s one of Folded Space’s main selling points that their organizers allow for vertical storage. Just store them flat?
@@Arbite they are displayed line the ones behind me in my video. My whole library is. I just bag all the components as inserts are slower for me. But even in addition to putting in all the tiles into the player boards still long sell with specific card and deck setup, map setup, exploration tokens, etc. It’s a beast
dont be like that , there were some gorgeous games for Win 98, plus Win 98 was a platform not a designer tool, game artists would have still used some version of Photoshop for texturing, most likely 3D Max for sculpting and some early days coding tools ...
@@Berndrare you seriously defending an operating system right now 💀💀💀 dude she’s essentially saying the graphic design looks 25+ years old windows 98 doesn’t have feelings

If you don’t stack your boxes flat (I don’t, I stand them up) the tiles don’t stay in the boards.
@@TheGameBoyGeeks that's not the game's fault.

Thanks for the video
You’re welcome James
please tell me this is a preview prototype...
Full production copy in stores now
Why do these publishers insist on making games so ugly..the game board looks like it was designed in windows 98 😅

Criticism has replaced accomplishment

I think you just saved me about $100 bucks...
