    Notice, that as Quinns puts pressure on Matt at 2:35 to move, neither piece can move north (which is the assigned function of Matt) except orange, but even orange cannot do anything north, as it can neither discover new tiles there, nor access it's target location. Quite devilish Quinns really!

      There should really be a rerelease - base game with no scenarios and dwarf stuff and best aspects of maximum security expansion (guards, cameras, etc). I play this at my local board game cafe and that's all we ever use, could fit into one box, don't want to buy two though to get that experience.

    I actually quite enjoy the base game, the expansion seems to make it less about fast paced fun and more about adding lots and lots of rules that we'll have to learn and make the game more complicated than it needs to be. Would of course try it if I ever come across it though!

    • @louiswouters71
      @louiswouters71 6 років тому +2

    • @kailomonkey
      @kailomonkey 2 роки тому

      I agree that the expansion complicates. I guess your mileage may vary for the base game, and the expansion is there if you want to spice things up. Just the security guard (and vent) and nothing else added would probably be enough to spice it up without too much new to learn. So I can see their point that a thing like that should be in the game to extend its life rather than less inspired extension ideas in the box.
      Board games have to have expansions to sell these days. It seems to be in the rules. Like taking content out a videogame to sell as DLC.

  • @gomezthechimp1116
    @gomezthechimp1116 6 років тому +1

    If you like this game, you might enjoy `The Mind`.
    Briefly: It`s a co-op which features a deck of cards numbered from 1-100. There are a number of rounds depending on the number of players.
    In round 1 each player is dealt 1 card, round 2, 2 cards etc. There are 8 rounds in a 4 player game, so each player ends up with a hand of 8 cards in the final round (if you get that far).
    All players have to do is to play their card(s) in an ascending sequence: the player with the lowest card(s) plays their card(s) first etc.
    There are no turns, so if you`re dealt the 1 and the 2, you`ll want to play both of those together and immediately, whereas if you`ve got, say 98,99,100, well those must be played last.
    If you mess up you lose a `life`; lose too many of those and it`s game over. You don`t get many either; only 2 lives in the 2 player game.
    There are a couple of other rules; You can gain more lives by completing certain rounds, so you can afford to play out of sequence a couple of times maybe, and there are opportunities for play to be interrupted so all players can play their lowest cards to the table.
    But here`s the thing: the entire game is played in complete silence. Worse, ALL communication is forbidden apart from maybe an evil stare.
    So imagine round 1 in a 4 player game. Players each have one card to play. Your card is the 19.
    What do you do? How long do you wait before playing that card? Get it wrong and you`re a life down already. And it only gets tougher as the game goes on.
    Try it, it`s fun :)

      Ivan Hayes I don't have the need for the expansion yet. You can easily get your money's worth out of the base game. I've played about 6 times and just added the 2nd scenario to the mix and i think there are 17 scenarios that add to it. So you'll be fine with the base.

    • @louiswouters71

      Escape somehow seems more pressured to me. Plus, it is possible to just get screwed by the dice at the end, and you can run into Alpha-gamer issues. MM, on the other hand, feels more cooperative, and when you lose you feel like it was your fault.

Interesting concept but I think Escape is better? Big box is a lot more expensive though than both of these.
