    I love Santorini. I grew up on chess (and later, Team Chess), and Santorini has all of the best aspects of chess and more, without any of the bad. Plus, it's got my favorite mechanism -- variable player powers. And it even has a built-in way to add handicaps for anyone who needs one (in the way of hero powers).

    • @ctcostello
      @ctcostello Před 4 lety +1

      A little late reply, but after he moved, his character wouldn't be adjacent to that tower anymore

  • @seanjordan2147
    @seanjordan2147 Před 5 lety +1

    On first game, As displayed 4:15, his best option would be to move his worker to the center and build a dome. The best counter move against that would be to move her worker up to the second level and build where she was previously to prevent him from following. But if she were to build somewhere else, he could have followed, moving up, then placing a dome on the other third level. Thus continuing the game.
    Second game. Her building the first level three was her downfall. As displayed 9:55, her best option would be to move her worker at a diagonal and build a level three in the corner. Because if he were to choose to move anywhere else then the winning move, she would be able to win on her next turn.
    On the final game. The Pan and Atlas match up brings out a lot of strategy. She had the advantage when preventing him from moving up, if he were to leave one of his workers at level one then use his other worker to support in construction, he could have gained a more critical advantage, causing her to use more domes.

  • @nightcatarts
    @nightcatarts Před 5 lety +2

    10:04 Seems to me like Becca should have made this move, then used her other worker to dome the three storey tower. Then she would have been able to access the only level 3 Ivan could have built, as well as blocking him from getting to (or doming) the level 3 she could build in the corner on the following turn. Becca could then win in either 1 or 2 turns, whereas it'd take Ivan much longer.
    Or.. does the worker who moves have to be the one who builds during that turn?

    • @OptimisticMoose
      @OptimisticMoose Před 5 lety +3

      The worker that moves is the worker that builds. Which is why its unfortunate that Becca moved her other piece into the center of those towers, because she could only move away.
      That turn before she basically gave the game away :P

    • @nightcatarts
      @nightcatarts Před 5 lety

      @@OptimisticMoose Ahh, that is a pity. Having never played this, getting my head around the strategy is quite difficult, but if only one worker can act per turn (abilities aside) then that simplifies things quite a lot.

    I bought this game based on all the hype thinking it would be a lot of fun. I don’t remember which god card it was, but it basically said if you move a worker from the second level to the ground, you win the game (or something to that general effect.) They did it on their first turn and the game lasted all of ten seconds, unless we weren’t playing it right. That was about two years ago, and we haven’t revisited it since.

    • @teehlfx5238
      @teehlfx5238 Před 4 lety +2

      ilanf2 I’m not sure which turn of the game you are referring to but in general placing a dome is like any other general ‘build action’ where you can build the next level up on a square/structure that is adjacent (one of the surrounding 8 squares) to your worker that moved - no matter what level your worker is on.
      God powers can switch things up but I don’t recall one limiting your ability to place domes, only a few enhancing. (Ex. Atlas in the last game could build domes on any level instead of just on top of 3 level buildings)
