There is an anime called 'After School Dice Club', that focuses around real tabletop games from around the world. Cockroach Poker is the board game they show first and I instantly want to play it! This is awesome to have it get more exposure. Other games they show is Blokus, Incan Gold, and Catan to name a few.
I was so nervous when I saw the title about cockroach poker being outdated BUT was so revealed to hear that you guys meant that cockroach poker Royal is the better version which I agree with completely! I love royal and could never see having the original cockroach poker
@@Quackalope This is one of my go-to games for introducing new gamers to the hobby and I find the extra layer that the royals brings adds a little too much complication for people. I also just like the pureness of the original game and like having the extra set of critters versus a set of royals.
My 6 year old learned Royal (not having ever played the original or any bluffing game) with zero trouble at all. A little complication isn’t a bad thing.
To make it easier to find Jan's channel, could it be feature by Quackalope channel? I've heard of Jan's channel, but could not find it. And I don't speak much Spanish, I'm just curious of the content ;)
Hey! We moved with it and have it in the living room (still getting everything set up - it was too big to film with in the studio due to my top angle. However, I love the table - and will record more with it soon! We are playing Spirit Island on it now!
I had never seen cocroach poker until yesterday. Not one I wanna run out and buy but now I would be happy to play it. This is a case where my bias sometimes hampers me as when I heard bluffing poker, I was turned off by both those words. This to me is a good example of why sometimes you have to see it and give a game to try because its easy to dismiss these based on descriptions and not seeing the gameplay. Thanks for a great video and a great time hanging out yesterday! Also jan's PJ's are AMAZING in this video! Well done sir!
The fact that this video dropped the day after I spent a few hours playing this game on TTS with a whole bunch of wonderful characters including Mr. Quackalope himself ..Just.. Hits Different.. and feels like the universe is aligned with me lol. Thanks for the awesome time and game!!

I totally disagree. The original cockroach poker is much better than the Royal version.
Interesting - Why is that?

Yep, it has to be at a certain size before UA-cam let’s me do that :)
@@Quackalope Got it. Do you have a link to share then ;) Maybe you could add it to the description of this video.
