thanks Rodney! For some reason the rulebook had me stumped ! Maybe it was eggnog brain!? You vid saved me. Great work!
lol, I think a few people were in the same boat as you (I was too!) - but hey, videos to the rescue!
*****
supreme fail on the rulebook. First rulebook of hundreds that has had me stumped and running to the CZcamss. Thanks for this video.
futuredubs Glad to help!
Thanks for the video Rodney! Just got this game today and I'm pretty excited to go dungeon crawling!
+BouseFeenux All the best - hope you have fun.
After watching this I want this game! Seems like a nice, light, fun game to play in-between my other heavier games.
Yep, it's easy to learn and pretty quick to play, so should fit that space in your gaming night :)
+Moisés Soto Cabezas You would likely just say "Thanks, I'd like to stop here" and exit the dungeon and get your XP. You only go to the next level by saying that you want to. You are not automatically forced to go to the next level of a dungeon.
Thanks so much for this video, learning to play it for BGA with my son. Classic Rodney, always having fun during a video which is just fantastic! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful, I hope you both have fun!
Great game! I play this game after school with my friends and because it is so easy and fun I can teach it to them very fast and have more people to enjoy playing it with.
+Luca Morelli Glad you've been enjoying it Luca!
Great video as ever. Always watch your videos before reading the game instructions.
Thank you Stuart, great to know you're enjoying them!
I think my family will be happy to get our hands on this one. It looks right up our alley! Thanks, Rodney.
yep this confirms it, did the right thing by backing this game! yippie!!!!
Thanks for all the videos, Rodney! People like you are the reason traditional gaming is one of my favorite hobbies.
That's super-nice of you to say. Thanks so much!
So, I kind of blindly kickstarted (?) this game because of the low price and the crazy popularity. I always know that when a game gets crazy with funding, there will be a high demand for it and it will be hard to find later. I'm a Euro guy at heart but now that I've watched this video, I'm actually really excited to play this. Like Elder Sign or King of Tokyo, sometimes it is nice to have a mindless dice fest. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for this video! My dungeon roll box came in the mail today, I immediately searched for a how to play video, and found yours. After watching this 20 minute video I'm confident that I am ready to not only play this game to teach it to my friends when they come over. Great job!
Glad it was helpful Robert!
Thanks a ton for making this video! This makes getting into the game super easy.
You're very welcome Cory - glad it was helpful!
Thank you! This was an excellent explanation on how to play this game.
Hey - thank you :) Glad you found it helpful!
Almost forgot that I already subscribed to this awesome channel. The host is so excited and very detailed to teaching the game. Which is very appreciated and makes us want to play
Thank you for the kind words Alex!
Watching your teaching videos is so soothing 👍🏻 eases all the panic of feeling complete befuddled by rules 😃
So nice to hear they help!
This made me very excited for the game on its way :) I am glad I went for this onr
Hope you have a great time playing!
I really love this channel. Games are VERY well explained, and the videos are really easy to watch, you can get lost in the narration and an hour passes flying by. Keep up the good work! Cheers!!!
Thank you so much Rodrigo, I'm so pleased to hear you've been enjoying the vids!
Just wanted to let you know, this tutorial video convinced me that this is an excellent game and as of today, i'm a proud owner of the said game. So thanks you very much for showing me what is out there to play with my friends :)
I'm so glad to hear you found this helpful! Thanks for checking out the video.
My wife bought me this game recently and we haven't had the chance to play yet. This is an awesome video, great work! Can't wait to play now!
+James August Walls Hope you guys have a fun time :)
Hay Rodney great looking game and brilliant video i will definitely be getting this game when it comes out
That was a great use of 20 minutes. Can't wait to see the other two videos. Great, great job.
Thank you Rickert!
can't wait to see the game play.. I am waiting very patiently for this to show up on my door.. lol..
Thank you so much for these videos!! You are awesome!!!
Hey - thanks so much - glad you like them!
Very clear explanation. Thanks!
You bet Rob - thanks for checking out the video :)
I love the LOTR reference with the ring of invisibility. Definitely a good looking game! It's on my list.
Hey, glad you enjoyed checking it out!
SO stoked that I kicked this thing. Cannot wait to get it in and start playing!
this is the first time I'll be watching one of these live. Looks like a good one too.
Great video, my mimic copy comes soon!
Thanks for this. Great tutorials.
Glad you found it helpful Mark!
Rodney, thank you again for another great video and for getting it done so soon after your intro to Dungeon Roll.
Good video! I can't wait to get my Mimic copy and play it with my kids. I think they are going to love it!
Thanks Rodney for the overview of this game I backed on Kickstarter. Great video.
THANK YOU! I bought this game along with others because it look interesting, but quite frankly, the rulebook didn't help me to understand the gameplay well. This video is awesome! All questions I had before just went "poof", the explanations were great and I am really stoked to play the game now! Again, THANK YOU!
Ah, so glad to hear the video was helpful - I hope you have a good time playing :)
Just got my Mimic Kickstarter edition in the mail this morning! It looks so good, can't wait to play it this weekend.
Hey Rodney! Great demo for the start of this new Game! I think ours should be here any day now.I'm really looking forward to playing this with my kids (12 & 6) thru out the weeks to come. Also some of your viewers noticed too that indeed your production A/V & Fantastic showman ship is only getting better my friend...I could only hope these modern day publishers & game company's can see your tremendous value in this Hobby.Cheers
Hope you enjoyed!
I enjoy the fact that the heros and creatures are color coded
Great review of the game mechanics. This was the selling point for me and I will now buy this game. Thanks for the detailed insight into the game. 👍
Paul Magne Haakonsen A pleasure to share it with you Paul.
Ordered this game while watching; this looks so much fun!
Glad you enjoyed!
Looks fun, cant wait to get my kickstart copy soon.Glad I backed this!!!!
Excellent video, sir! I just received my copy of Dungeon Roll and currently writing a review for it for my site... and I believe I know what I'm going to embed at the end of it. Keep up the good work!
Quick and fun games with friends and family
Glad you enjoyed this one David!
Excellent tutorial.
Thank you very much - this was a fun project to work on :)
Great explanation video... Thanks... the game looks fun
You probably get this often enough but your videos are so well done. I just can't see myself going anywhere else for board gaming news/learning. I would love to know though, what is your personal favorite dungeon game? There are hundreds of them out there and I'm a real sucker for a good one.
Zachary Walls Thanks so much for the kind words. I really appreciate that. I talk a littler here about the question of favs: czcams.com/video/p0Lv8LHadMc/video.htmlm55s
*****
Thank you very much for the video, although it doesn't give me real direction I can certainly understand what you mean. My very best wishes to you and don't you dare stop making these amazing videos!
Zachary Walls As long as people keep supporting the videos, I can keep making them!
Must say, this game has simple yet very interesting mechanics... Looking forward to the gameplay!
Very, very well done, thank you!
The rules just don't explain the game like you do!.. 💕
Thank you Wendy - glad it helped!
Thanks for some really cool shows. You should probably put a warning in your videos - So far i've watched 3 of your playlists, and now I relealise that i need two more games for my collection :D.
This is by far the best way of seeing how a game plays, I'll try and follow your more recent videous
So glad you enjoyed these :)
Thanks for the great Videos btw. Love them all, I've watched everything and you have greatly influenced my new love of Board Gaming.
Graet job again! Can't wait to get my hands on my copy!
Excellent work as usual, Rodney! I am impatiently awaiting my copy to arrive. :)
Did it get there?
thanks, this was helpful!
+leet complex You're welcome leet!
thank you Rodney.
This game seems new and interesting. I do like the refreshing mechanics; a step away from the norm as I know it.
Thanks for checking it out!
I always like custom dice and these look really cool.Ii'm really looking forward to the playthrough and then i need to wait till the game is available in my gamestore.
Thank you very much for this video. :) Very helpful explanation. :)
A pleasure to share it with you Jon.
Hey Rodney, Great Video as usual. I really liked the intro. :) Look forward to the Bioshock play through.
Thanx for the reveiw explains the game perfectly
Thanks so much for this video. I really wanted the game, but was really disappointed with the rule book. I found it to be hard to follow with out the visual aids. Now my pack and I are dungeon roll ready thanks again! :)
You're very welcome. Glad we could help out!
Keep it up bro.
Putting text/ label/ notes on the screen also helps relay information to viewers.
Glad you enjoyed!
Who does the custom graphics at the beginning of the video from the game? That was really well done.
+Chris Mullins Diego Melo of www.melsfx.com/
Wow, that's kind of a complex game for such a tiny box. Thanks for the overview; can't wait to play!
Hope you have a fun time :)
We did! :) I lost. :/
I'm looking forward to this one.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the clear breakdown. I’ll
Probably refer back to it as a teach my kids...this old man brain may not retain all of those details.
Happy to assist!
Quick question! Where do you get that red cloth? Great video BTW!
This was a bit of fabric sold at a dollar store, to be used in patching clothing :)
Hi Rodney!
Could you clarify this situation?
The situation is this:
At loot phase there is one party die in the Graveyard and on table are two potions.
I will use a Scroll to quaff both potions. That Scroll goes to the Graveyard before it's effect takes place...right? So does it mean that I can take both dice from the Grayveyard?
@sam hiu: Indeed, the scroll die can be used to drink both potions, the scroll die "dies" and goes to the graveyard, where you can now re-animate two dice, since you have quaffed two potions. A different matter it would be if you'd used a scroll treasure marker to drink the potions (which is possible in my opinion), because then there would only be the one die in your graveyard for you to re-animate.
Thanks to Chri for the assist!
This is an excellent video. Thanx.
You're very welcome!
I love games that can be played solo. Plus, I would just have to create a custom mat with a dragon's lair and grave yard.
The hobby certainly grew in terms of solo play over the years, didn't it? :)
Just got my Kickstarter edition this morning
excellent video , cool game (hey i have buying legendary after Watch your video) sorry for my English
nice job, amicalement phil
Very well done thank you, still am unsure on your comment about potions and treasure chest, also monster must be killed before dragon stage correct?
Not sure which comment on portions and treasures you are unsure, but you are right on dragons, monsters first, then treasures/potions, then dragons.
Are you able to use a Hero's special ability to convert treasure tokens? For example use ability mage ---> fighter on a mage token to change it to a fighter token.
Nope.
Another great explanation. I've been seeing this little game in my local shop and think I'll pick it up soon now. You're videos are all really nice, simple, and good quality; how long does it take you too shoot and edit? I'm thinking about doing some video projects over the summer and was hoping for some tips. Are you a one man operation or have a friend or two assisting with post production? Thanks for any answers!
Paul Merk I have a couple friends who do the animated intros, but everything else is me. It takes about a week per video (but it depends on the length of the video, and I'm including learning the game, scripting, shooting, editing, fixing, reediting, etc).
***** man I just really appreciate your replies to my inquiries. Thanks for producing great content and interacting with the community. Definitely a new subscriber lol.
Paul Merk My pleasure Paul - I get to keep doing what I do because people like you watch and support the content, so thank you!
In case that the Dungeon Lord rolls 6 dices, and 3 of them, in the same roll, are dragons. I have to fight against the dragons and if I defeat them, I have to fight the others 3 dices? And if the 3 dices are chests or/and potions?
Great video, keep up with the good work. =)
(PS: sorry for my bad english)
+Louis Martin Not quite, the Dragon Phase comes later in the round. You first fight the other monsters on the dice, the Loot and then the Dragon is fought. Hope that helps.
hey Rodney my son and daughter love this game! is there another "solo" dungeon crawl type game that you would recommend for one person that's fast fun and easy to learn?
Hey, thanks for the interest. I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not - but hopefully you see a few games on here that might be what you are looking for!
13:30 Can you use Spellsword as a third companion or is it just the dice?
And can you use the sword treasure (used as the fighter in this case) to defeat monsters or just the dragon?
Does the ring treasure even remove the dragon dice when there's 3 or more (thus awaking the dragon)?
Lastly, when rolling as the dungeon master, does rolling three dragons at once mean you have to defeat the dragon AND the monsters (in that order?)?
Sorry for the multitude of questions on an older video, the rules might not be as clear as they were back then!
1) I'm not entirely sure what you mean. One of his abilities does let you rotate him, and then it's like you have an extra mage or fighter die face to spend.
2) The sword treasure can be used just like a regular sword die face.
3) Yes.
4) You fight the monsters rolled first and then you deal with the dragon.
Watch It Played Thanks for the reply! Ordered the game after seeing your video + the two expansions :) Just forgot to get the tarot sleeves, so that's gonna be another order...
And to my surprise I saw I wasn't subbed to your channel even though I could've sworn I was. Fixed that and resubbed :) Great video!
Thanks so much for subscribing!
Great tutorial and a fun game.
The only carp: there’s seven monster dice. How do you do levels 8 and 9?
Good question Mike, I shot this long enough ago that I don't remember if they ever made an official rule for that. My memory tells me you just roll the dice you have (as it's already risky enough to keep going at that point).
@@WatchItPlayed I never made it past level 7, ever...
Also, it kinda hit me this morning... just use regular D6s if you need them, and maybe use red poker chips to keep track of the dragons. Just keep an index card noting 1=goblin, 2=ooze, 3=skeleton, 4=dragon, 5=chest, 6=loot
@@WatchItPlayed re-read the instruction booklet. Apparently, this is by design. Even if you are on level 8 with two dragons, you only roll the 5 remaining dice. I guess this makes sense because otherwise its too easy to get wiped out as your party dwindles.
"...inherit the powers of invisibility". Nice :)
Great video! Thank you!
Mike Weiner You're welcome Mike!
was also wondering if you have 4 exp and kill a dragon while delving does your hero level immediately or when you go back to town? and if they level immediately and your hero was exhausted from using their ability do they auto refresh or stay exhausted.
and with the occultist, if you use the ability to change skeletons into warriors do you keep the skeletons/black dice infront of you till you use them or the next regroup? or use some other counter to remember you have them, and use the black dice for the next level of the dungeon?
+Stephen Fursman You hero levels as soon as you gain the experience. You do not automatically refresh. I don't feel confident answering questions on specific hero powers.
As to the Occultist question:
You'd have to immediately use those dungeon dice you turned/converted/bewitched to fight for you. If you don't, they are lost as soon as you reach phase 4 (re-grouping phase).
At least in my German rule book, "Occultist" page, it reads "In der nächsten Umgruppierungsphase wird/werden diese/r abgelegt" (Discard [turned skeleton die/dice] in the next re-grouping phase).
great vid mate, 1 question, if you roll multiple potions can a champion drink all potions or can it only drink 1 at a time?
Davide Evans You can drink multiple.
Any companion (be it in form of a die or a corresponding treasure marker) can drink as many potions as he/she likes, not only the champion.
Hi Rodney, I wanted to ask a question. If I have 4 Dragon dice or even more in the Dragon's lair, I manage to defeat it, do I remove the 3 Dragon dice and do I have to keep the others that remain or are they removed? Thanks
Hi Simone, I usually do my best to answer all questions that come up, but I shot this one long enough ago I'm not sure of the answer, and don't have my copy to be able to check for you. Sorry!
Good video. What happens if you kill all the monsters and waste all your party dices but cannot open a chest or potion¿?
You don't have to drink potions or open chests, so it wouldn't matter if you didn't deal with those symbols.
If you are forced to flee the dungeon, you don't get any XP for already completed levels right? But what about other miscellaneous points you score, e.g. a successful fight against the dragon?
If you've already collected experience point tokens, you don't have to return them.
Rodney - please can you tell me; if at
any time I fail to destroy monsters - like not having
enough Party Dice left, though I have to end
that Delve, do I lose any XP I have gained along the way?
If not, does this mean I can go for a
further Delve and start from Level
1 with the usual number of 7 Party Dice? Or is the
game over? (I play solo by the
way)
+nintendy You lose experience gained on that delve, if you fail to defeat any monsters there. That will end the current delve you are on. You always start new delves back at level 1 with a new party of 7 dice. The game doesn't end until you've played 3 delves.
+Watch It Played So what you are saying is; I only retain any XP I have gained,
providing I 'opt out' of that
Delve voluntarily whilst still ahead? I guess this
also applies if I fail to beat the Dragon in any
Delve - I also lose any XP I have gained,
right? Also; if I reach a point say where I have no more Party
Dice - but have nothing left
to fight on any
particular Level, I keep my XP
and move on to the next Delve? (sorry to be a such a pain - but
it’s so new to me)
+nintendy You've got it all correct!
+nintendy XP Completed in previous dives is not lost. We have a full play through of Dungeon Roll that you can watch as well. Check it out - it will further help you understand the rules.
Hmm well the game haven't really gripped me so far, looking forward to seeing it played though as it may give a very different impression from just getting rules explained.. Great video though!
what happens when you roll 4 or 5 dragons? I know you fight the dragon after 3, but if you win do you return all dragon dice or just 3?
also if for example you roll 4 dragons do you need 4 different heros to beat it?
+Stephen Fursman You just add them all to the dragon pool when rolled and then fight the dragon as normal, discarding all the dragon dice. Rolling extras is kind of beneficial, because it's no extra work for you to beat, and it's less monsters :)
Well, at least when we ask "What's in the box?" we know it's something we want to see.
Do you roll 7 dice when you are on level 7 of dungeon? so would reroll a die after it is defeated
If you run out of dice, you only roll what you have.
witch is the game where it said "our druid is screw" i am triying to find it but i do not remember the name
I'm not sure.
Great explanations! What is the name of the intro song? (Please don't say darude-sandstorm...)
Chaz creates most of the music for our series.
Just curious, would you recommend this over zombie dice?
Can't help you with that question, but I talk a bit about recommending games here: czcams.com/video/p0Lv8LHadMc/video.html&t=10m55s
Zombie Dice is a very simple press-your-luck game whereas Dungeon Roll is press-your-luck that plays like an RPG. I've found that while both are pretty easy to learn, the quickness and simplicity of Zombie Dice is better if you're playing with people who aren't usually gamers, whereas people who want more than just luck (and a bit of strategy) will definitely prefer Dungeon Roll.
how do you know when | if your hero becomes exhausted?
When you choose to use your ultimate ability, you exhaust your hero card by turning it on its side.
So the first level is a freebie? The dungeon master doesnt even roll 1 dice?
You'll notice here, at level 1, I roll 1 die: czcams.com/video/PzZ8hUzXBtE/video.html
Looks like a funny filler for inbetween ...
