Great explanation! Was able to play on TTS easily. There were a few little things we had to hit the rulebook for, which is totally cool. Like how to replenish the vacationers after a successful launch and how the victory cube scoring worked, but I found the explanation well-paced and effective. Thank you!
I think at 1:29 when Monique takes a card and lose a reputation she could have done the other action first and only had to pay 1 money to the bank. Anyway thanks for another great play through. Always a pleassure watching you
Great game teach and play through video! I was on the fence if I was going to back this or not but after watching your video I backed it and now can't wait to get my hands on a copy! Keep those videos coming I really enjoy watching your content!
OK so I just noted down this game to look into this past week and then BAM! Video from you guys on how to play this. First Mercurial, now this. Crazy coincidences keep happening! XD
At the start, I wasn't overly sure about this as it looked a little heavy and Lacerda-esque, but by the end I was willing you to play the long game! Between this, Ostia, Ready Set Bet, and Steam Power, it's looking like an expensive month for crowdfunding :D
This looks right up my alley, and I'd dread teaching it to friends. I think I might send them this video should I back the game and want to play it ;) Great job as always! One thing I noticed especially in the early game is that being first player seems very advantageous. What did you think? Have you played again and been able to figure that one out more? Maybe it's because you both seemed to follow similar paths, but especially on company goals for two players, being second seemed quite punishing
This will likely be too heavy to get any real table time in my group, but it’s right up my alley. Definitely going to be watching this closely. Thank you!!🙏🏻
So, I do have a question: The error you addressed (thanks for making it very clear about the error) implies that if you have one cabin in your ship, then you can not send any passengers. Correct? You said, "You can only house a number of guests equal to one fewer to the number of segments in your shuttle". I'm assuming "segments" means "cabins". So in order to send three guests, you need 4 cabins? Thanks for the clarification!
So when two segments meet, they make 1 cabin. The finalized graphic design makes it a lot clearer, but there is a half-cabin at the top and bottom of each segment. Typically (unless an Agenda card or upgrade says otherwise), players can build a maximum of three segments in each ship, which means that (usually) a maximum of 2 guests can go on a given cruise. Hope that makes sense! 🚀
At 1:58:30 doesn't Naveen have 5 cubes on the progress track for the funding bonus, not 4? One is in the overflow area at the top of the progress track, so doesn't that count too?
@@BeforeYouPlay Doh! 🤦♂ Thank you! Great playthrough btw. I played this once on TTS and it made my head spin. You guys always help make things so clear, so thank you again!
I think at the end Monique achieved the final objective, 3 +1 from the ship in the different coloured sections, so another cube up and 3x4 from the AGM scoring?
Thanks for this one! I was really intrigued by this, but there isn't really any hook that makes it feel different enough from my Lacerda games to warrant backing it. Would probably still enjoy playing it one day, but certainly won't have to own my own copy.
Looks like the game funded in under 4 minutes. And they had 30 slots available at the $499 tier level....all gone. (Seven more people have backed at the $1499 level.) Whoa....
Yeah, was doing something else when it launched, came in seven minutes after launch .. all 499 were sold and supposedly only 3 left of the 999 (but you couldn't pledge for it anymore). They're trying to do what Chip Theory goes. Honestly if I could have got a 499 slot, I'd have done it :p
I keep seeing Galactic Cruise being compared to Lacerda's games. If it were a Lacerda game, how would you place/rank it? Thanks for another great teach and playthrough!
Hi there, it definitely has similar feel in how everything is thematically interconnected. Unfortunately due to the sponsored nature of the video we won't be ranking it/reviewing it. Hope you understand 🙏.
If this game interests you, here is a link to their campaign. - www.kickstarter.com/projects/kinsonkeygames/galactic-cruise?ref=1vgdi3
I love you guys. You explain the game so well and you make it look effortless. Thank you for your hard work!
Our pleasure!
Congrats on coming out of the closet 😊
You love guys? Quite the platform to come out, Mike!

What a great teach! Thank you so much. I was on the fence, but that's it ... time to back it.
What a great playthrough! Would love to see a long game from you guys

Darn, this video has convinced me to back the campaign. Great video as always, and thanks for showcasing the game!
Thanks for checking out our video, hope you will enjoy the game!!!

Haha, let's make it 3!

Very Lacerda like, even the board was Kanban-esque. I think the fact the art is by Ian O'Toole helped create this vibe

Of the two 2 player playthroughs I have seen, the first player has won easily.

I have the same problem as you, i love heavy games, my friends don't T_T
We feel ya! Hopefully you can try someone else's copy in the future 😁!!
tell your friends to step their Game up.
I wish I had folks nearby to play a game like this with on a regular basis. I would absolutely back it!
Yeah, same. I live in a tiny town in Wyoming with a 13 hour shift coal mining job 😖

@@koltinthompson1321 perfect! Thanks.
Great as always! Might be worth adding a timestamp for "Playthrough continues" so it isn't rules error announcement for a big portion
Great idea! I'm on it!
That was quick! You guys rock!

Hi there, Naveen is playing as the Pink player. The blue player has 5 vs Pink with 4. Let me know if we are missing something.
@@BeforeYouPlay Doh! 🤦♂ Thank you! Great playthrough btw. I played this once on TTS and it made my head spin. You guys always help make things so clear, so thank you again!
@@MikeSigsworth HAHA thanks!!
1:58:20 Naveen completes the third corporate goal. He should have had more cubes in the last area.
No, because the goals are harder to achieve the second time. He would need an upgrade at all three destinations
Exactly, it required 3 destinations as the person above mentioned.
I think at the end Monique achieved the final objective, 3 +1 from the ship in the different coloured sections, so another cube up and 3x4 from the AGM scoring?
This looks fun! Thanks for the great video
Thanks for watching!

When is the review coming out?
Unfortunately no review due to the sponsored nature of the video.
Some of their mechanics remind me of the Gallerist
I thought similar, feels very Gallerist-esque
Looks like the game funded in under 4 minutes. And they had 30 slots available at the $499 tier level....all gone. (Seven more people have backed at the $1499 level.) Whoa....

@@Muagetoif it helps, the $499 slots were gone in two minutes or so. I saw 1 left after the first minute.
@@ian_forbes Wow!
@@Muagetowhy Is It that good?
Crazy🤣
When is the release for this game?
Unfortunately we aren’t sure at this time. I believe the campaign page should have a timeline estimate.
Backed it 2day 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Enjoy!!
Do you have to send the game back after you play test it?
If not, ill send you my address and shipping and handling funds.
Yes, typically

Completely understand, didn't mean to put you in an awkward position!
What is that pile of chewed yellow bubblegum at the top left of Monique's player board? lol
Haha! That's 'Popcorn Guy' our makeshift 1st player marker 😆.
I have no Interest in kickstarter games until they come to retail.
It’s all good, fortunately this one looks like it’ll be successful and have retail distribution in the future.
