    I read the rules and my wife and I watched your video before playing our first game of Lisboa. I should not thank you as my wife won the game although she only saw your video and did not read the rules! 😂 I think that says something about the quality of your work! Lisboa was a Lacerda we wanted to have but were a bit intimidated by. Your video helped us to decide to get it. Thanks.

  • @Bildi7v
    @Bildi7v 6 років тому +2

    Thank you Paul! One thing I found helpful to understanding the game was to read the rules kind of backwards, because the later actions (making buildings and stores) form the basis for the earlier actions, so those earlier actions are easier to understand.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  6 років тому +2

      Yeah, I know what you mean. I've used different methods for teaching this game to others. Normally when I explain an action, I also explain what it is for. So...trading goods "you will get money for doing this - you will need lots of money for building the shops, which I will get to later", etc. But the backwards approach works too, since shops and public buildings are the core of the game and where a lot of points come from.

  • @boxednull
    @boxednull 7 років тому +3

    I think the reason so many people are turned off by this video is that this is not a game you can fully grasp simply from a pure rules explanation, it really needs the historical context to explain why things are the way they are. That context also makes it way easier to learn / remember. I know thats not really what your videos are about Paul (in this case it probably would have doubled the length too), but it may be something to consider if another game like this comes up :)
    That being said, I still find it very useful to watch as someone who will be teaching it to others. I just usually watch your video first, and then read the manual. In this case I recommend going the other way.

    • @TheBrokenMeeple
      @TheBrokenMeeple 6 років тому

      Yeah but teaching that historical context doubles the rules explanation. Not to mention as thematic as it is, it's not a theme most will care about.

  • @locoyroco
    @locoyroco 7 років тому +5

    I do agree about how busy the game looks, with all the details to take into account when performing various actions. It's going to be hard to introduce the game to others. Hopefully, playthrough videos will help to show how fun the game actually is.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +3

      If you want them to learn the game before the session, then yeah, getting them to watch this video will save a lot of time on game night. However, my video is purely instructional, I'm not sure I get across any message of "fun". Of course, if you like complex games and lots of meaningful decisions (like me), then this IS my idea of fun :)

    • @locoyroco
      @locoyroco 7 років тому

      Gaming Rules! First of all, thank you Paul for the video, it was very helpful. I do enjoy complex game with meaningful decisions just like you, my only concern is the number of details we have to take into accounts (eg. the treasury track will affect the price to pay to visit a noble). That's why I hope to see a runthrough video to get a better idea.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +2

      Rahdo will be doing a runthrough, so hopefully that will help you.

    • @barbaobardo2692
      @barbaobardo2692 6 років тому +1

      Try to put things in a historical context, and you'll see that the actions will make more sense and the teaching will run smoothly. BGG has lots of contents to support you on that. It looks way more complex that it really is.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  6 років тому +1

      Thanks for the feedback. Definitely recommend a playthrough too so that it all fits together. I think Heavy Cardboard did one before release, but I know they got a couple of rules wrong in the first one, but may have done a second one. Can't quite remember.

    I've played/owned almost all of Lacerda's games which usually make sense after a video and a read....having said that after having set this up, watched 3 how to videos, and read the rule book twice I'm still like "WTH???" 😄😂😢

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  6 років тому +2

      veerchasm1 I know exactly what you mean. The designer kept telling me "this game is lighter than my others" and during reading the rules, writing this script and playing my first game, I didn't believe him. But then, after that, it all clicked into place, and I now agree with him. It's still a heavy complex game, but after a couple of games, hopefully you'll be ok with it :)

    • @antgerfitz
      @antgerfitz 5 років тому

      Maybe watching a documentary on this Lisboa disaster and then watching this rules video would make it click, thus making it a lighter game :) I think I will ask people to do that before I teach the game. But first I need to buy the game.

  • @moramento22
    @moramento22 6 років тому +1

    Vital Lacerda's games are always sooooo beautiful and really interesting, although they are very complex, the only game I got to fully understand is the Gallerist, Lisboa and Vinhos for example are mysteries for me for now

    One small thing which could make a difference. If you build a store, you have to take the bonus first and then after that take the rubble cube. (-> player aid) So taking a good as bonus may be not possible if your rubble set is not full.

  • @tiagoazevedosoares
    @tiagoazevedosoares 7 років тому +6

    The video pictures the game as extremely complex but I believe that it'll become easier once played a couple times. I'll need to try it before making the decision to buy it though!

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +5

      I'll be honest with you. When I read the rules I thought the same. Then I played one game and I actually now think it is probably "lighter" and more accessible than previous Vital games.

    • @ShelleyDanielle
      @ShelleyDanielle 7 років тому

      I watched Heavy Cardboard play this (as you have linked in your description) and while I've only played The Gallerist, Lisboa looks lighter to me. I like that the influence track is not as high/long as it is in The Gallerist (feels tighter that way and at the same time easier to climb back up it) and I like the following mechanism in this. It seems 'easier' to remember/grasp then the kicked out action in The Gallerist. People forget a lot to leave behind an assistant, at least in my plays. The follow action in this seems pretty 'easy' to remember. Plus I bet people will be watching other player's portfolios to see IF they can follow, factoring into their decision of whether or not to do that action that turn. I think I'll be able to get this to the table a lot more than I am with The Gallerist and I've still not managed to get Vinhos Deluxe played. Happy I backed it on KS. :)

    I've always been told Lisboa was somehow similar in complexity to On Mars, then I saw that 25min video (versus 45min for On Mars) so obviously it's an easier one to teach :-)

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  3 роки тому +1

      On Mars is a more complex game than Lisboa yes, but the main difference here is that I changed my style of teaching. Lisboa video is only 25 mins, but if I did it again now, it would be about 35 mins, as I prefer now to go into more a detailed explanation of things.

    24:28 You must change the boats after having discard your cards. Some people understood that it was possible to get a boat from the second period for free when discarding the card from the first period that gives you a boat for free because they are on the board when you discard your cards if you strictly respect the rules as describe here and in the rulebook. In fact the correct rule is that can get a boat of the first period only.

    This is one of the most complex games rules wise have seen. Definitely a step up from Kanban. I think TI3 and Warhammer I have seen beats this in rule complexity. Strategic depth and opaqueness is a whole another ball of wax. It is likely I will play my first game of this tomorrow. Thanks for the video.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +2

      It is interesting how lots of different people have so many different opinions on how complex / heavy Vital's games are. But.. after playing this one myself, and running may demos of it to new people, at least half of them thought it was his most complex game - during and just after the first game. But after that, it all settles into place and it below Kanban on complexity scale.

    Great video! I just have one question about influence. In the rule book from my understanding is that you gain influence from the Cardinal, whenever you get a ship or play a noble into your portfolio. Did I miss that in your video? Please let me know, thank you!

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  6 років тому

      Can you let me know exactly where that is in the rulebook. I've not played the game since making this video, although my copy arrived yesterday, so I need to know this too :)

    • @blesswitskills
      @blesswitskills 6 років тому

      Gaming Rules! In the player aid book on
      page 4 in the How to section.

    • @blesswitskills
      @blesswitskills 6 років тому

      Gaming Rules! I guess my friend said that you would get the total of the top cards in your portfolio when you first get a ship or the Cardinal, but you automatically receive the top influence points of the political card when you play it in your portfolio.

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  6 років тому +1

      The player aid is just a summary. Always check the main rulebook. Page 10 has the rules for playing a card into your portfolio, and it doesn't mention you getting Influence. I think the reference in the player aid is that some cards have the "gain influence" icon on them when you tuck them in maybe.

    • @blesswitskills
      @blesswitskills 6 років тому

      Gaming Rules! Yeah. I'm looking at the rulebook now and there is no indication that you would receive influence immediately from a noble card unless it has it as a reward. There are cards that gives rewards as influence.
      Just seems really rough to gain influence. Haha

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому

      1. If you have no goods, then you are right, you cannot "trade with the nobles". However, you can "visit a noble" by playing a card to the royal court. This allows you to take one of the state actions without having to pay a good.
      Coloured tiles on the store places? You mean the blue ones at the bottom of each column? Thats for scoring - mentioned somewhere in the vid :)

    If possible, I would like to translate this video in Korean. Could you open it up for translation?

      If you can create an srt file and send it to me, I will happily add it in there.

    OK I'm going to just say "bucks" or "dollars" or "coins" because that "therayal" or whatever sounds weird! :P

    • @GamingRulesVideos

      Hhh-Ray-Al. That's what they were called at the time and I check pronunciation of it with someone who would know these things :)

    • @TheBrokenMeeple
      @TheBrokenMeeple 6 років тому

      Gaming Rules! I know that's their historical name but I'm still going to say bucks or quid coz it's just easier to remember and I know those I teach it to will likely do the same.

      Rahdo always says bucks for every single game 😄

    • @markusschmidt9260
      @markusschmidt9260 6 років тому

      Bucks could be mixed up with books in this game, which would be pretty confusing. Dollars would be the worst, making my ears bleed. So I would ask people, who can't or don't want to call out the correct currency to use "coins", as this seems the most appropriate.

      Yep. Classic Lacerda. Lots of stuff going on. It does get easier though :)

  • @tlleitner

    I'm used to top heavy games from Mr. Lacerda, but this just looks far too busy. I may take a pass.

      It's less so than all of his other ones IMO, having now played it.

      It is more sandboxy, more open-ended, but once you get things going after a couple of turns... it works like a charm!!!!

  • @daniels.691

    This how to play doesn't really make me understand the flow of play, and what the main hook of the game is...

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +2

      Daniel S. Flow of play is pretty easy. Players take turns, on your turn, you play a card to do one of 4 things. Then you draw a replacement card, and then the next player takes their turn. Of course, there is more to it than that, but essentially, that is the 'flow' if that's what you meant.

    As others have mentioned, I see some issues in the game. The white and blue graphic design, although thematic, is tiring and makes the board look both dull and busy. The illustration of the very stern faces on the cover, the board and the cards doesn't scream "fun" to me either ( I am well aware that the historical background of this game is a national tragedy, but still... better artistical choices could have been made ). And last, although Paul mentioned it is one of Vital Lacerda's most thematic games, it still looks like pushing cubes and a very dull and soulless experience. I have both The Gallerist and Vinhos in my collection but I'll skip this one.

      This is no "fun" game. This is an optimization game.

    • @TheGrooves
      @TheGrooves 7 років тому

      It's not like I was expecting Galaxy-Trucker-fun here. I enjoy the occasional brain burner, but I'd rather prefer to look at a pretty board while playing it.

      TheJoaninhaMendes why?

    • @TheJoaninhaMendes
      @TheJoaninhaMendes 7 років тому +2

      Ludger Schneider, it really looks like pushing cubes around this time.... the other two games that i mentioned are incredibly thematic but this one seems to lack the theme.
      I am Portuguese and I love our history, I love the "Azulejos" (the white and blue mosaics that can be found all around Portugal) but it looks terrible on this board.... and I am a fanatic FC Porto fan... their colours are white and blue... but in this board it doesn't look good :(
      maybe I need to watch an actual run through but as it is, it doesn't catch my interest at all.

    • @bwort007
      @bwort007 7 років тому

      TheJoaninhaMendes I love his games also and my team, Bayern Munich, has also blue and white in their logo 😉 I like it 🤗 but thx for sharing mate

      As someone who lived in Lisbon for many years, I was eagerly awaiting this game but I'm not sold on it despite all the detail. Or maybe it's because of all the detail. Set up time seems huge and fiddly, and I agree, pushing a lot of cubes around and not overjoyed by the overwhelming tableau. I loved Vinhos though so I don't know what I'm missing here...

    • @GamingRulesVideos
      @GamingRulesVideos  7 років тому +3

      N Cravo personally, I think this game is his most thematic yet, having played all of them.

  • @bijanajamlou5152

    pass. this looks lika mechanical simulation game that just turn gears and lack soul. the graphical design doesnt help. i like the style put the game board board misses a opportunity to tell a story.

    • @tijowed1
      @tijowed1 6 років тому +5

      Bijan Ajamlou I'm curious, which games would you recommend that have boards that "tell a story?" I would recommend playing the game first before making unproven opinions such as these. It's a game about an actual event that happened in history, so where isn't there soul or story???

    • @barbaobardo2692
      @barbaobardo2692 6 років тому +3

      Dude, you definitely should try this one with an open mind. If you give it a try, and take a look at the rulebook at least... full of historical references. Don't know if you have already tried any of Lacerda's games... he is BY FAR the most historical grounded designer out there. Paul had a huge challenge here to explain a so mechanically complex game in a short video, so that might fool you. Try it! If historical bounds is what you're looking for, you'll love it!!! (But yes, it is complex and it is heavy!)
