Really useful thanks

Rule 6, moving the calender. Not "any" player can move 2 days. Only the player who has a worker on the first player spot has that option to move two days

Life ruined on the first rule that I diddd miss 😭😭

one particular house rule can eliminate a good deal of down-time without seriously impacting the game: instead of rolling to move, simply move 1 + the paw value on the hero's card. Scurry would double the total move value (1+paw value)*2. One would still need to roll in the courtyard per the Crow attack rule.

When you discard the water rise card, you do not shuffle it and place it back on the flood deck pile, am I right? Cos I was stuck cos I did this haha

The green explorer card doesn't say the gimmick consumes an action, have you noticed? should we assume? or is they free to move for ever?

"There are 4 ways to lose" *me knowing there are actually 70million and the only way to win is to not play*

Will I contract BoardGameAIDS if I subscribe to your channel?

I have board game aids

Great channel!

I just got done playing this game for the first time....and realized I missed some rules thanks to this video lol

Are you sure rule number 6 is correct. The option is to train a worker or pay the allotted bags/cubes for that resource.

Great video... Unfortunate channel name.

Can the diver move in an L shape if the middle tile is drowned

Hand Limit .You may only have 5 cards in your hand, including Treasure and Special Action cards. If you ever find that you have 6 or more cards (for example because you drew more cards or received cards from another player) you must immediately choose and discard the excess to the Treasure discard pile. If you choose to discard a Special Action card, you may use its action before discarding.

1:25 is either incorrect or unclear. While it is correct that only 1 building can acquire the architecture bonus, it is not true that the 2nd building must be built without using the bonuses. The rule is that architecture bonus can be used for *either* the first or the second building, but not both. Specifically in the rules it says “if you construct two buildings, you can apply your architecture technologies to the first or the second, but one of them must be built without architecture technologies” ....This can make a big difference because it means you could build building 1 which advances you upwards on the architecture tech track, then use architecture bonus on the second building (and thus immediately benefitting from the increased tech that the first building gave).

Could somebody explain the exact sequence of events when you draw 2 Waters Rise cards in a row? I noticed that this player didn't play any flood cards at the end of his first Waters Rise card draw?

This video gave me board game aids

Soooo how do I use the fishhhook?

Can you trade with someone who already has the max number of cards? Are you allowed to discard cards you think you don’t need, or do you have to exceed 5 cards then make the choice?

I hate to point this out but what you state in regards to #9 regarding when the discard step takes place well that contradicts the rule book since the rules state and I quote "If you ever find that you have 6 or more cards, you MUST IMMEDIATELY choose and discard the excess to the discard pile"

I disagree completly with rule #6, as it says specifically adjacent.

1st.

Excellent

Says it's 10 rules you forgot but it's more like 14 rules you forgot

Thanks. This is helpful as I’m a new player trying to learn how to play.

4:05 is it true you get also the lower stuff?

Nice video but: 8. Technology is in the 3rd row 6. ... green player will fall off (6 action space)

thanks, this cleared some confusing rules

Number 5 - It Takes a Family, you state you cannot take a harvest cube action if you don't have any family members on your board. You can take the action, removing the cube, but you don't get any grain if you don't have a family member on your farm. I know, I'm late to the party. Surprised no one else pointed this out!

Really enjoy your rules videos - but please get you mic sorted out! Shame to spoil them with this one problem...

How do board games give you Aids!?

Where do you get the ruling on being able to move the diver/explorer according to their abilities? That's true in Forbidden Desert, but in Island it *explicitly* says "adjacent cards". I think you're wrong, unless you're the board game designer?

I apparently forgot how to count to ten. Great video though :)

Do you really need the Helicopter lift - card to win the game?

It is possible from the video to infer that a mouse can only carry three weapon/armor pieces, and such is not the case. Note that the "Equip" section (P15 of the current Mice & Mystics rulebook) makes a clear distinction between equipped items and items in the pack. We should be careful to mention that equipped items (placed face up in front of a particular mouse) are not in the pack (placed face down in front of the same mouse). It is only when the pack may go beyond 3 that an item must be discarded. Also -- another clarification -- one instance where the "only 3 items in the pack" rule must be applied is in the receiving of searched for items. With a strict interpretation of the rule for "Search" (on P12), successfully searched for items must first go to a mouse's pack. On a successful search, if you want the item and already have 3 items in the searching mouse's pack, you must discard something else in the pack to receive the new item -- and this is even true if you have a slot open in your equipment for the item... even if you want to use your free action to equip immediately, the item still must travel through the pack to get to your inventory & so must push out another item in the process.

Such a great game but sooo many rules.. I'm hoping Jerry Hawthorne does a second edition with a different story that streamlines the rules more.

We do 2 rules here wrong. I checked the book and you are right. Next time the forces of evil will be stronger. Maybe I should consider to switch sides and ally with Vanestra. Thank you!

a bit like take 5

does anyone knows the music playing? :D

that was very helpful for game-play. thank you for posting this.

Pretty sure that wasn't 10. :P

Very helpful, thanks--family just picked this up and the rules clarification will help us avoid confusion or missing the subtleties (especially the initiative rules).

I've been told that bonuses stack up but you can only use one weapon. So does this mean that if botch weapons have a bonus for a melee attack but both of them have an effect, does the bonuses stack but only one effect can happen?

Excellent video! Well done!

I actually played 70% of these rules wrong. Thanks for the great video!

WTF does he say at 1:07? "If you need to studuguehfuie the track..." Not complaining. Legitimately curious.

Money can also be used in the mass, to guarantee your family members could be taken out in the bag

One thing I haven't seen mentioned anywhere is how co-op games can also be played solitaire. As it's player vs game, it doesn't really matter if it's multiple players or just one vying against the game. Just play as if you were four people, taking four distinct turns, and it works fine. I would think that the game manufacturers would want to advertise that their co-op games could be played with one player, as doing such would open a larger market for persons like myself who don't often have others available or interested in gaming.

I only received 1 "Roche card" is there a separate card for "greedy roach "?
