#GameNight #boardgames #tutorial #HowtoPlay - Hry
The production quality of this show doesn't get the praise it deserves... There are very few youtube board game let's play's that get to this level of production quality. The audio is great, the shots are well planned out (for a multi cam setup at least). Great personality's around the table without them being overly attention hungry. Really love the atmosphere of this show.
What. The. Fudge. It's that actress... How?
agreed, the editing really helps follow the flow and learn the game.
Well said. I completely agree.
drappke - totally agree.
There is another board game CZcams I watch, but when they play games the audio ruins it and I don’t watch those episodes.
Agreed.
I've been gaming for 7 years now and I believe nobody on CZcams explains a game better than Dave.
I'm a person that needs to watch the game being played before I know if my group will enjoy a game. I appreciate the effort you guys made to make this video, thank you!!!
I’ve been so confused on how to play this game until now! Great video!
Dave is such a great teacher!
Thanks. Would you say I have a certain... cachet when it comes to teaching game.
@@davidarnott6085 You're actually the reason why I have 1/2 if not 3/4 of the games in my current collection. I've watched many of the play throughs with you in it doing the rules and before I know it the game somehow ends up in my collection lol.
I was listening to an NPR show where a guest commented that he and his family played boardgames sometimes instead of watching TV. He said they played a lot of Ticket To Ride and Wingspan. My daughter and I have been addicted to Ticket to Ride and play it several times a day sometimes. I pulled off the road and bought this from Amazon. We are getting ready to play, after watching some videos. Can't wait to give it a whirl!
Nikki's attire is very on brand for this episode. Great job, everyone!
This episode finally convinced me to pick up this game and I absolutely love it. It even got a few family members who dont normally play games to the table since they are both avid bird lovers. Thank you for all the seasons of Gamenight! Ya'll do such a great job and even though my wallet weeps at times it has helped my family and friends come together more often through this great hobby.
I just started watching "GameNight!", hope Deborah will participate in many episodes; she really makes this the game fresh and happy! Certainly I am happy with all participant, but she is the best. Thank you for this, and all the other "GameNight!" videos!
Wow. I watched an instructional on this game on another channel, I won't name because I normally like a lot, and couldn't follow this game at ALL. His video was only 16 mins, but the points you make, make all the difference in understanding the concepts. Great job! I couldn't expect it to be better! I'm talking about the instructional part. I will just watch the other portion, of the play through myself. Maybe. I would rather play, but I will watch it until I'm sure I can play and help others after they see the tutorial at the beginning. But the instruction so far as been fantastic! Hats off to you!
Thank you very much for all 4 people, you people saved our time to explain easily about this game with multiple cam views and good audio quality. your team work is highly Appriciated!
This was really helpful in prepping myself and my partner for a super fun Wingspan tournament our friend was hosting! Thanks for the video 😊
Games that expose players to real world knowledge/science are simply the best. Thank you folks for showing off this game ;)
Watching you playing was fun and finally permit me to undertand the rules!!!!! Also, the rules where very well explained at the beginning. Thank you so, so much ! ❤
I loved the teacher! He is good at explaining the game. I know I would have been frustrated without his wonderful tutorial. Now I can be a beginner at Wingspan. Thank you for your help.
Some birds in real life are not picky with what type of nest they build, and make different kinds of nests, to suit the location. Those birds, that are in the wingspan game, will typical have a star nest.
And this video is a very good explanation of the game.
Great review, superb production and Dave... what an awesome talent to be able to explain a game to others!! Its a complex game and the rules are not easy to get but you explained everything so neatly!
“Dicey” comes from “dice,” the plural of “die,” the little spotted cubes of chance used in many games. A mission that was “dicey”
to the RAF pilots was fraught with danger, and their safe return was as
uncertain as a roll of the dice they often used to pass their time on
the ground.
Thanks for an awesome show, as always. You are always so positive and up beat that this show is such a good ambassador to our hobby :)
At 27:11 Dave made a mistake, he kept 3 birds and 3 food tokens.
When the rules state that you must either keep 3 birds and 2 food tokens or 2 birds and 3 food tokens etc.
Sure. The other mistake is choosing the first player BEFORE player have drafted thier cards/food. It could be seen how great advantage first player would have planning his first play knowing what to discard, food to pick or card to draw.
39:50 another mistake. You can play another bird only in the same habitat. That one allow you to choose a habitat, but not "send" the other bird to another habitat. You can play either in forest or grasslands, but both should be played at the same habitat.
This playthrough allowed us to break through! I've recommended it to so many folks. Thank you for this resource!
I just like this crew... they would be welcome at my table any time, and my friends wouldn't mind if I said I was bringing one of them over. Good gamers, the lot of them.
Thanks for this. I watched a couple other videos that just described the game play and kind of got it while reading the instructions. However, this is what I needed! You explained the game really well to begin with and then getting to y’all actually play it is so helpful. Having frown up playing a lot of different board games, I never realized how much I needed to see a game played to get it because I had much older brothers who taught me by letting me watch and then playing games with me. This is exactly what I needed. I can’t wait to teach my kids how to play (not that I couldn’t wait to teach them, I was just nervous at the seeming complexity of it. I love birds and was pretty excited when I saw this game at a game shop but the price was a bit high at the time, but when my wife found it on sale, she snapped it up after my talking about how interesting it looked).
Nice explanation of the game. I felt like I was sitting across the table from Dave; the experience was friendly and engaging, and had everything I needed. Thanks you all!
playing a 2 hour game with no snacks or beverages! whuff, that's rough. thanks for the tutorial. you all are nicely patient with each other.
They all have little color-coded beverage glasses.
Nice try by Deborah to get Dave to say "cache" (cash) correctly. Didn't take though.
Doh!
THANK YOU!
One of our new favourites! Great & unique engine builder and Stonemaier puts out great games.
Thank you for the great tutorial. I watched another and was so confused. This cleared up the game playso we were able to jump right in and play.
This channel is amazing! The step by step description at the starts awesome! And the playthrough is incredible, answering lots of questions!
Thanks for sharing...
We watched several videos for Wingspan before playing it including this one. I've played a number of euro-board games but am no expert and my wife is a very casual board gamer, at best. We really enjoyed this game and are looking forward to playing it again.
I really appreciate these playthrough videos with discussion afterwards! I'd been eyeballing Wingspan for awhile, and was still hesitant after watching this video, so I decided to not spend the money. However, I've played it myself now and absolutely love it! I use the how-to at the beginning of the video to explain the game to my other friends
Again a great video. Dave explains the game very well. I played Wingspan solo three times and lost all my games against the Automa. Very challenging.
Always so refreshing to watch this channel and the no-nonsense playthroughs, which can't be said of many gaming channels these days.
Wingspan finally became available here in Sweden at an online store, and there was nothing to wait for. Production quality is amazing from eggs to rulebook to you name it. The cards seem to be 100% plastic, and I think that would be the first time I see that in a (non poker-related) board game, and I of course mean that in a good way.
Thanks for such a great video! I truly enjoyed watching the play through and the great dynamics of all of the players.
Thanks (as always) for the fun video guys! By the time my copy came in I felt like I had already played it! :)
Your videos always make a game easy to follow and they are fun to watch - you all look like you have an enjoyable time 😁
Lincoln's on fire! Got me chuckling a few times this episode. :D
finally.. my fav bgg group playing this beautiful game. Good Job Team!! :D
The best wingspan explanation ever, the game was also fun and nice.
Glad it helped!-Lincoln
Definitely agree. I'm about to play my first game with my family tonight using this video as a reference.
This is a great video.
Lovely to be introduced to wingspan like this :)
This is my first time watching a playthrough of this superhyped game. I really like the looks of it and it isn't over complicated. Definitely have to give this one a try. Love the interaction of the group on this one also.
For some reason I always see Lincoln as Dana Carvey's SNL character "Garth" from Wayne's World. This episode definitely enforced and solidified that idea. "Hey Wayne".
"Yes Garth"?
"Will you teach us how to play SCHWINGSpan"?
Lolz
D H I often see him as Langley from the Lone Gunmen. 😄
@@dougascott I see that too! I think it MUST be a conspiracy of epic proportions.....or fake news one of the two
Spot on!!!
Been waiting for you guys to play this! I was one of the first pre-orders for the game, but I wanted to hear Dave explain it before playing!
What an awesome video. Highly agree that the professional touch to this video made the difference for me, I watched the entire video in two sittings. This should be a required watch to learn the game. I started with the IOS version and really didn’t get it until I watched this. Plus we are going to start a game night at work and Wingspan was on my list, I think we will enjoy it.
Great episode with wonderful people and a great board game 🤩
they dont have the forward momentum and entertaining energy of will wheaton but this is the only other board game show ive come across thats actually watchable (i genuinely mean this as a compliment)
I heard a lot about this game, but after seeing your play I definitely going to buy this one. It's almost a must have. well done !
Fantastic explaining, clear concise simple! Watch first approx 20 25 minutes to get a good grasp! Thank you!
That bird that moves from row to row is convenient whenever it's able to remain the bird on the right of a row, as it can allow higher rewards continually whenever you target a new row as long as you can plan ahead.
I've watched several videos on how to play Wingspan, and this one is by far the most helpful.
Ina, thanks! Dave is a great rules explainer. -Lincoln
A consistently great CZcams channel, buoyed by a genuine TV star!
I think the way round 4 bonus goals was scored was incorrect. I interpreted the three eggs + the habitat, as how many sets of three per bird in each habitat does the player have. The players scored themselves with 5 goal points but yellow player only had 1 set of 3 Eggs on 1 bird and red had 2 sets. This video helped me learn the game. Reading 12 pages of instructions really makes someone question if it’s worth it. The video made it easier.
Well this was an absolute delight.
In this case "cache" sounds like "cash".
Cache means "a group of things that are hidden," and entered English in the 1700s. It can also mean cache memory, or "a part of a computer's memory where information is kept so that the computer can find it very quickly." This word is pronounced \CASH\.
Cachet has several meanings. It can mean "prestige," "medicine prepared so that it can be swallowed," or "an official seal," the oldest meaning of the word in English, first used in the 1600s. It is pronounced \cash-AY\.
My Cat's Breath Smells Like Cat Food he didn’t listen to her because she’s a woman, unfortunately
Thanks for this. It was driving me nuts and I dove into the comments section to see if someone mentioned it.
There was a break in the action, when they come back he's saying it correctly. I'm assuming she said "hey, let's fix this before you say it 10 more time incorrectly." He took the tip, just not on camera.

No need to be sexist
THIS!!!! it was driving me nuts
Hi guys from Galicia, Spain. I like very much your videos, it's really great for my English and you are very nice, it's a pleasure see you playing board games. 😊👍
Was looking for videos for this on the pc version. I had no idea there was a board game. Pretty neat, and good video!
@Deb You are right. "Dicey" comes from dice ""risky, uncertain" (as the roll of dice), 1940s, aviators' jargon"
Saw this game when i bought roll for the galaxy and i can say ill def be buying this next
Love the post game discussion, particularly Deborah’s honesty to this being an ok game for her. Original ‘Wingspan’ I enjoyed but that Oceania board transforms it so pleasingly.
Excellent! I was entertained and learned. High quality. I recently bought the digital edition and have so far just played vs AI. My brother and his wife are board gamers and I just bought them the physical game for Christmas. It is on sale on Amazon. Thanks.
OH MY GOODNESS!! I’m so happy to hear the Snipe Hunt reference from Cheers; well at least that’s the only place I’ve ever heard it and since I’m a huge Dr. Frasier Crane fan this reference made my day. Thank you!
An old Boy Scout camping ritual...
This game is so beautiful and super fun to play. Once you get a good engine going, it’s full steam ahead. I’ve won tremendously and lost catastrophically all based on eggs 😂
My big win was an egg engine.
Best engine is tucking cards on the wetlands
Love the chemistry with you four.
Nikki's shirt is so thematic!
The le petit jedi is way cooler though.
Great show, as always. Bought this for a friend soon after first watching you guys play, and he loves it. Now, I can't be bothered checking every comment (I'm far too lazy), but 'dicey' comes from WWII aviators, who reckoned your chances of surviving a mission were as good as rolling dice.
Thanks for this video! I think Lincoln forgot to use the 'when played' ability of his second bird at 39:49. This would have gotten him another bonus card, which might have helped him approach Dave's score.
Thank you! This is what i needed to understand how to play this!!
'An African or a European swallow?' - Lol :) Beautiful bird and board art. Looks like a fun game - Will be ordering this one :)
This game is probably the most well-balanced game I've ever played. I don't think we've ever played a game where someone either ran away or was completely left behind. Everyone is usually within a few points of each other.
I also have the computer version, and it's almost like meditation. Great music, beautiful art, and the "competition" is very easy going. It's not cut-throat frustrating. It's not my favorite game, but it's in the top 5.
can you tell ur top 5 games? :)
@@giveawayTopeople sure 😊
5) Zombicide
4) Marvel Legendary
3) Wingspan
2) Munchkin
1) A Touch of Evil/Fortune & Glory. These are from the same company, and play similarly. F&G is like Indiana Jones. AToE is gothic horror theme. I prefer AToE, but we tend to only play that for Halloween.
Understand that this is an older play through, but we just purchased this game and we were having some difficulty understanding the game play. Great video of a play through and agree with drappke that this a a well done video. Shout out to Our Family Play's Games (OFPG) since their recommendation got us to this game.
Deborah: I think my strategy here will be to just go for birds that I think are pretty...
Lincoln: Oh look at this horned Lark
Deborah: Ah, see this is the problem though
Lincoln and Deborah together: There're all really pretty
@23:14
Love the bird shirt Nikki! You're so cute
this is so helpful 🙏💚 thank you!
Winc Span is a gorgeous game. I love it.
Thank you!!!!! This was awesome!!!
Thank you so much for the explanation! 😀
Great pleasure.... Very good teacher 👏👏👏
In the start of the game Dave stays with 3 cards but keeps 3 food, i thought he was suppose to only have 2 left because it has to add up to 5
Such a classic!
Thank you so much for this, we bought this and struggled to get started but this video gave us the confidence to play. Simple and effective explanations and what you need to be doing etc.
I know this is a year old video but I am new to this chanel and this video is a first one that I watched. You are doing an amazing job,I subscribed after 3 minutes into the video and after I watched I bought the game and I love it. Thank you for your hard work and I have a tone of videos on this chanel to watch,its a shame I didn't find it earlier.
Thank you so much. I hope you find more games you might enjoy. -Lincoln
Same with me. Def planning on watching more episodes!
This game is AMAZING. I own it and love playing it EVERY chance that I can. The only mess up was at the start of the game where both Lincoln and Dave kept 3 cards and 3 food instead of what's alloted at the start. Otherwise great run through.
bcmaledragon - yes agreed but it is a bit sad, that taking eggs at the end is getting you more points than trying to build another cool bird because you then don‘t have enough time to fill it with eggs
I had rounds where one player took eggs every time in the last round and got like 25 eggs
Did you encounter these phenomenon?
@@schoko-fan4370 I have played the game around 7-8 times and everytime except once, the person who scored the most with eggs won the game. In the one exception, the person was second. Unless we are prone to a lot of groupthink, it seems the egg strategy on the last round is necessary to win.
Very late reply, but I can only recommend getting the Oceania expansion. The lay eggs action is less overpowered and makes the game more exciting until the very last round!
I love this game and it's funny to see in the beginning they kept making the same small mistakes I see most new players make. Wanting to trigger birds when playing them, taking the dice instead of the tokens.
Those fancy bits need to get to the BGG Store ASAP!
They are coming soon. We were lucky to play with the test set.
My favorite part of the game? My state’s bird is on the cover! You see them all the time in Oklahoma, the beautiful scissor-tail flycatcher
Great teach
this guy is the best at explaining how to play games
Is Deborah a mainstay on Game Night now? Because that would not be a bad thing.
Goya Solidar I think we have finally found a worthy replacement for Aaron. 😎
Could she convince Charlie Cox to come on an episode?
But to play, like, DC Deck-Building or something 😋
Couldn’t agree more. She’s awesome! Very smiley with great personality and adds some flavor to the team.
Totally agree, she's lovely
Holy crap havent watched this channel in years, you have the girl from true blood playing awesome!!!
I'm pretty sure when Lincoln played the two birds in the grasslands in the same turn that he still gets to trigger the 2nd birds when played power but didn't, if anyone was wondering.
which minute is it ?
Love Deborah on the show..I am curious though how she came to be on it. An affiliation or friendship with one of the regulars? A Geek & Sundry connection perhaps?
Both Dave and Lincoln have connections to Hollywood.
She hosted/was the dungeon master for Relics and Rarities on Geek and Sundry, and also played a series regular on True Blood. I believe she was on a couple episodes of Critical Role as well.
Those tokens clink so satisfyingly.
I don't know if I love this game or if you all have the ability to make any game seem really fun. Although I have been looking for a nature-themed game (I've checked several in this channel, and this is my favorite by far)
This is such a good quality video and tutorial, we have been playing wingspan for a while but really helps to refresh! Have you done similar videos for new expansion packs? Question at 51.38 the bird moves from habitat, but was not ALREADY to the right of bird should it not be before moving and then would you not ‘walk back’ on the row you have moved too to take advantage of extra brown activation powers OR do you go back to original row, this card always confuses me.
Hi there, thank for a great episode. As a birder, I just wanted to say that "GREBE" is pronounced "greeb".
About the End of Round goal for the third Round (1:11:27): I've described it as "count the number of NON-EMPTY twig nests". That usually clears up any confusion.
That is a great idea! Thanks for the note and for watching-Lincoln
Met the lady who made this game :D Wonderful person.
I've seen the shells, too. I know what you mean, Lincoln!
The first 18 minutes of the video are very valuable for beginners. The actual game play is far less valuable--far too high chit chat-to-info ratio, but if you like chit chat, enjoy! But many thanks to the man who, in a very organized way, ran through a "turn" in the first 18 minutes and answered most of the procedural questions you might have!
Really enjoyed this video, will certainly be watching others, and it appears like there is a lot of content. Curious, how or where do you get the upgraded food pieces?
