    Sold. I totally immersed myself in this game by just watching the review.

    Love the channel guys, great work.
    You've really reignited my passion for game design, so thank you very much for all your efforts.

    I think my most amusing point of this is you had to refilm the components drop.

    Finally played this tonight. I agree entirely with you Tom. Fantastic game. Love that you can always do something good and taking loads of stuff does indeed feel great!

    I play this game on my iPod all the time. Plays great, takes about 30 minutes, and most importantly there's no set up and the computer handles all the drudge work of placing resources, flipping cards, counting francs, etc. I don't have the actual card game but I can only imagine that setting up, putting away and handling the resources and cards in the physical game is probably a pain in the butt!
    So yeah, I'm with Tom, this game is awesome, especially on my iPod. :)

    Love the channel! Thank you, Tom, for all the work you and the crew put in to it.
    This game seems to be out of stock in many places... Is it out of print?

    Interesting - I have the app but have never played the physical version. The tutorial and hints were all I needed to learn the game. Also, the iOS handles all the setup and cleanup, so you can just enjoy playing. It's a great game!

    Does anyone have a link to the player mats Tom was using?

    Nicely done, as always, Tom ... watched both the first and the re-review ... I don't own Le Havre yet, but I think it'll be my next purchase (as soon as my wife gives me the 'ok' - lol) ... question - while I've searched using different terms, I can't seem to find the resources printout that you refer to - anywhere - where would I find that?

      While useful, yours isn't the one pictured in this video. This is the right one:

    Tom you should do a video review of the original Ticket to Ride, was looking for one recently. Or perhaps a general video on TtR of all the expansions and pros/cons of each.

  • @rorirants9468

    Does anyone know if this game is out for reprint and will be available again? It can't just be "gone" can it?? Isn't it fairly new?

    one of the big downside this game can have is with 4 players the game really drag out

  • @DIProgan
    @DIProgan Před 6 lety

    Games that stay on the shelf doesn't sound like a good thing :P

  • @thadrine
    @thadrine Před 11 lety

    I will have to admit that the game does play entirely different with 2-3 players. With 4-5 it just drags out too much.

    • @vincelupo8419
      @vincelupo8419 Před 6 lety

      I have learned to love the game at any player count, due to the ios version. I just accept that it's a different game. Higher player counts are less about food.

  • @threepoint14159265
    @threepoint14159265 Před 10 lety +5

    I'm sure you've gotten this a billion times by now but in Le Havre the H is silent because it is French, so it's pronounced "Le Avre".

    • @Furellus
      @Furellus Před 10 lety +7

      Almost all French refuse to speak English so imo it's not that bad for an American to say 1 letter the wrong way. Atleast he tries it, can't be said for the French.

    • @threepoint14159265
      @threepoint14159265 Před 10 lety

      Furellus Haha so true.

    • @brendonf7841
      @brendonf7841 Před 10 lety +5

      Furellus Not only did you just generalize millions of people as if you've met them all, you also likened saying one French word to speaking the language. Wow. Regardless of all that, some people just like to know how things are said correctly.

    • @Furellus
      @Furellus Před 10 lety

      Brendon F Okay l2read, I said ''almost'' all French. Maybe that's not right, but I've met quite a few on the internet and on vacation, and all they're doing is speak French when most of them can speak English very well. Most of them just refuse to speak it and that's annoying when I can't speak French and can speak English. Just think about he could be annoying and just say ''The Port'' and just be done with it. I just was saying he's atleast trying to pronounce it instead of A LOT of French who just speak it in their own language without making mistakes. Go ahead and cry now about me generalizing people when I think I'm not. I'm making statements about A LOT and not EVERYBODY, because my own experience I've had with A LOT of French, NOT EVERYBODY. So no I'm not generalizing and I like a lot of French people, it just annoys me if we both can speak a language they just refuse to speak it because they're not willing to. But that also counts for Germans for instance, it would annoy me if almost every German would do that but most of them don't.

      @Polopalapop Před 10 lety +2

      Furellus In one's experience is one thing... we indeed ALL have personal experiences that may tell us certain things, often different things. For actual numbers on the subject, I direct you to these very credible links:
      www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2011/as-sa/98-314-x/2011001/tbl/tbl4-fra.cfm
      www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/75-006-x/2013001/article/11795/tbl/tbla1-fra.htm
      You will find here numbers that support the idea that a French-Canadian is 4x more likely to make enough efforts to be able to speak English than an Anglo-Canadian is ready to put efforts to learn French. (Which is a seriously massive difference, 400%!)
      In order to protect their language, some French people prefer to use their native language, when given a choice or when given the right to services in their language.
      I believe it would be better if you could support what you say with facts and to declare things as being your impressions or opinions, rather than stating things matter-of-fact-ly. Also, I don't believe that "almost all" French refuse to speak English. I believe most may not have learned the language in the proper sense or simply prefer conversing in French. Furthermore, I believe that using the terms "almost all" or "most of them" is indeed very much generalizing. I think that many people would agree with me that using the relatively sparse interactions you had with a few French people as a means to claim something about their quasi-totality is indeed very much generalizing.
      Concerning the pronunciation, it is "lə ɑvʁ" which I think sounds most like :
      "le avr". (silent h, silent-ish 'r' and 'e')
      Concerning the video, thanks for the review Tom. Upon your recommendation, among others, I got the game, have played it multiple times and I enjoy it very much.
      A+

    Does anyone ever build the Church in LeHavre? It turns bread and fish into more bread and fish, which is very biblical, but rather useless.
