I like those card closeups! Really great addon to videos!
That really confused me the first time as I thought rahdo just let go and the card was floating in front of the camera!
Also like how they look like giant oversized cards lol
Yes! Components too small and far away is the big problem with the overhead static camera. Rahdo found a pretty nice solution.
yup, i only wish it had occurred to me sooner (like a month ago for the etherfield, dice throne & black angel videos!)
@@rahdo , excellent playtrough. I was about to say the same thing Reciclerishu
Like that, too. Haven't tuned in to rahdo's videos for some time and was wondering when this feature was added to this already awesome channel.
I also wonder if some kind of greenscreen technology is involved.
Really like the closeup camera setup, very smooth.
The closeups are amazing, great addition Rahdo. Game looks fantastic, been waiting for a while.
It’s already been said, but it really warrants repeating. Kudos to your implementation of the close up camera. Anything that makes it better for the viewers AND easier for you is a big plus...I cannot emphasize enough how your contributions have made the board game hobby better. Thanks for doing what you do!
i only wish i had thought of it sooner!
loving the second camera, using the main camera as a background is genius
That close-up is the best thing ever!
The close ups is so amazing!!!!
Whoa, Rahdo! Loving the (what I can only assume is) green screen action. Excellent work! This sets you apart even more from the other reviewers. Cheers, I love it!
Absolutely love the closeups of the cards. Brilliant!
yup, i should have done it a long time ago!
Funded in 15 minutes, the most ambitious game yet from Ryan Laukat. I'm an unapologetic Red Raven fan, but this one looks like his best design yet!
Rahdo, Brilliant production innovation! Love it.
Chiming in as well for the awesome use of the green screen!
Rado, your just the best board game reviewer out there!
I never saw one of your videos without it having me hyped and finaly convinced buying whatever game you were showing!
You really should take a lot of money from those game publishers for making such good advertisement.
Nice additional camera for close-ups :)
This game looks amazing! Thanks very much for the review - I`ll pledge immediately.
That box art though... WOW!
Thanks for another great vid Rahdo.
Loving the new close ups
When did you start using the fantastic green screen? No more let's wait for the camera to focus to see a closeup of the card. Brilliant!
this is the first full runthrough using it actually :)
41:10 besides writing down Swim at location 15 you might as well mention Splinter at location 4 :)
The game looks really cool but I’m worried it might have too much stuff to track for a solo player. Also, this is a resource optimization game with shared resources between players so if playing co-op, there may be endless discussions about every decision. Does anyone else agree?
it is a discussing the plan kind of game, no doubt. and i've effectively played it solo (to demo it in this video) and i didn't think it was overwhelming. this is nothing like fury of dracula, for instance. often only some characters are applicable to a given task, or are completely exhausted, so pretty quickly you get into the zone about who is best suited for whatever problem presents itself :)
That's good to hear. I'm really excited for this game but I was worried those issues might be problematic for me and/or my game group. Thanks for making this video and for replying to my questions :D
This game looks stunningly good. I'm highly interested
very cool video production and review! thanks!
Looks cool, thanks for the review.
How invested do you feel in the quests. Biggest problem with previous games is the quests were dry. What makes gta and red dead work is the side quests are fun and feel Ike you want to invest. Not some random kill one monster take random loot and next quest is unrelated.
i've only seen a few quests of course, but they're fairly straightforward. go to a place, find a thing, take it to another place. or go to a place, face a challenge. or go to a place, talk to a person, face combat. etc :)
Thanks for the awesome playthrough rando! Still can't decide between backing this, Etherfields or Dice Throne Adventures. 🤔
tough choice! :)
Just started watching this but if there are no pig people in this game then Ryan has some explaining to do!
We’ve played a number of Red Raven Games on the channel, and I almost always back them when they’re on Kickstarter! I’m still not done with Near and Far though :O
But we love story driven games, so I’ll need a really good excuse not to pull the trigger on this!

Thanks for adding the close-ups! The art is beautifl but the gameplay doesn't "hit" me... I wish I could demo it to see if I'm wrong, I wish I was...
Wow this games art looks amazing sadly I was too late to back it up :'(
Same, but with Red Raven games, there isn't much different from the KS and retail...hardly a CMON campaign!
I just found this game and I'm sad I couldn't back it on Kickstarter as it's already finished.
42:50 - shouldn't the ship take damage when traveling during this turn later on? Also, thank you for the runthrough! It's fun to watch, as always.
"Weight rating: 3.00"
That honestly does seem low for this.
Though I'm wondering why the game fails if the crew mutinies. Does everyone just die in the fight? Does the ship have more crew than 9 people who could kill the playable characters?
i'd say 3 seems a tiny bit high, honestly.
if everyone is KO'd in a fight, you don't lose, you just end up back at the nearest port, with some time lost on the overall mission clock :)
My only reason reason for not backing is the shipping cost to NZ... It's about half the cost of the game.
That’s a lot of characters for solo. But then again, I love playing zombicide solo and that game has six characters I believe? But 9 characters? 🤷🏽♂️
i've effectively played it solo (to demo it in this video) and i didn't think it was overwhelming. this is nothing like fury of dracula, for instance. often only some characters are applicable to a given task, or are completely exhausted, so pretty quickly you get into the zone about who is best suited for whatever problem presents itself :)
rahdo okay. Coolness.
Wonderful review! But please tell me.. How are you doing this camera wizardry?? 🤔🤯 2 cameras side by side? With one om top of a transparent glass? Pls enlighten me!

22:20 should her total have been 8 Minus 1 for her tiredness and Minus 1 for the event? For a total of 6? Maybe I am misunderstanding how the event/tiredness works.
Daniel Holding: the tiredness status is placed for useing Kasumi this test, so it don’t count for the total of this test.
My only concern for this game is replay-ability. Once the game is won (or even lost) are you not slowly knowing the technical outcomes of all the mysteries in-game thus making it repetitive? For example you take your found rusty dagger to it's end location and complete the quest. Next time you play you will know this for many cards making it repetitive?
next time i play, i just won't go do the rusty dagger thing, if i think i saw everything that was there (remember, often you'll make a choice, that will cut off one outcome in favor of another). there's so much content here, you can play the full campaign several times, and simply go in different directions and explore completely different areas of the world :)
Indeed, the camera close-up is pretty cool! How do you do that? I would be curious of the setup!
Thanks in advance!
Assume there is a green screen mat with a 2nd camera overhead, and this green screen is overlayed on top of the main camera view. I agree that this is a brilliant way to do it and solves the main issue with static cam playthroughs.
This runthrough starts in Area 51!? How cool is that!?
LOL i didn't even think of that. i guess that was my subconsciously showing solidarity with the storm area 51 folks :)
Is it just a close up of a card or an extra camera?

Sleeping Gods seems similar to Robinson Crusoe
Never played his other games. I like the theme of this. Unfortunately it's a pass for me. Don't have the funds right now and hopefully there are no KS exclusives. It pains me that there are exclusives to entice backers. It irks the heck out me as I'm a completionist of sorts. If I get a game, I would like everything that the game provides for more variability including expansions.
I digress. Don't mean to start ranting on KS exclusivity. That said, Perhaps I can pick it up later for pre-order. Seems like most Kickstarters are doing that more often to get late backers on board.
Currently the only thing exclusive to the KS are the metal coins.
there seems to be lots of content to justify price point of $70, but $150 for everything does seem steep for a RRG.
Empires of the void is a heavy game and that one cost $65.
So far it's just the metal coins exclusive. The stretch goals will also be in retail editions.
Seems like Ryan has gone with metal coins and maybe one card or token as KS exclusive for most of his games.
Is it just me or does this game look a little, dare I say it, ground breaking?
Interesting game. I was dissappointed by above and below and near and far. Maybe this one will hit the mark for me
What about those games didnt work for you? I'm thinking about getting above and below, so any feedback is much appreciated!
@@alwynwong720 above and below was just a whole lotta fine for me.
The story was interesting, but they never really felt cohesive. I also never really felt like I was building a town.
I dunno. The art is awesome, but the theme just never connected for ms
Im deciding between backing this or etherfields. Thwy both look great. Which has crunchier gameplay would you say? And overall which one do you like more?
hmm, i think the combat is much more interesting in SG, and the world feels bigger. but the scenarios in E are much more elaborate and specially crafted.
@@rahdo ok thanks! Both are still very appealing to me but i think ill go with etherfields since i can probably get sleeping gods on general release in the future.
yup, very good point!
This game remember me of fabled land... Do you?
i don't know it...
Is it me or he did take the quest that the 4.1 gave Jen ?
Ah oops, he do it later
Looks like a cool game. Put down the pipe.
Good review, just slow down a bit :D As I see the game gets harder the more player there are? As the "men power" gets divided. If you play alone with controlling all the crew than you can use all of their power/skill so the challanges are easier to pass.
the team gets divided up, but to compensate, there are a LOT more command tokens in play, so you can use them on each other's turns, and you can trigger more equipment effects and character abilities than you could solo
@@rahdo I see, thank you!
Not a hater but damn this sounds boring 😵
