  • Curious about how well The Crew plays at 2 players? Wendy and Chris will walk you through how to play with JARVIS, the simulated 3rd player which actually works GREAT! We show you two missions, one easy, one tricky! If you had reservations about buying The Crew for 2 players, hopefully this video will waylay those fears.

      Wow thank you! Very kind of you to say so. Glad the video helped, it's such a fun game. Having played it at all player counts, I'll say there's not a bad one.

    CZ - Velmi pěkné, svižné, inteligentní představení hry pro dva hráče. Moc děkuji. Jsem nadšený do hry. Je pravda, že nemluvím anglicky. Pomáhá mi automatický překlad titulků. A pěkně to chápu!! Velmi pěkná práce.

      Thank you! I'm glad the subtitles work for you. The game is awesome, and we highly recommend for two players. If you have more people to play with, that's just extra fun you'll get to have.

    Great game! Just one comment : you should have put the tricks face down as according to the rules you should be able to take a look only at the last trick’s cards during the game.

    And I believe in a real game, there should be no talking/communicating except only with the communication token? Is that correct? If so, that makes it far more challenging lol.

    In the first round, Wendy did not win the trick and she was required to because of the 1 correct. Chris did. Isn't it game over at that point?

    • @MeepleOverboard
      @MeepleOverboard  Před 3 lety +1

      Hey Mandy, glad you enjoyed it! Just to make sure, we didn't make the variant, it's in the rulebook. Maybe I misread what you typed. You could easily keep the all the rockets out of the first shuffle when you deal the cards to Jarvis. The rulebook only states to keep the #4 Rocket out. We REALLY loved the variant, makes it worth buying even for just 2p in the mean time!

    IN 2 PLAYERS The Crew, How should the Distress Signal be handled: Does Jarvis participate in the passing of cards (selecting Jarvis’ FACEUP card to pass), or do just the humans exchange one card?

    • @MeepleOverboard
      @MeepleOverboard  Před 3 lety +5

      Sorry for the delay. I had to look it up to remember and give you a right answer. JARVIS does participate as well. The Commander chooses for it. Thanks for watching!

    1:53 why do you have a rocket card face up for the third player? I though the 4 rocket cards were distributed between the two players only

    • @brucebot
      @brucebot Před rokem

      I was confused too but reread the rules. Jarvis can get rockets, just not the ‘4 rocket’ card.

  • @partypao
    @partypao Před 3 lety +1

    For mission 1 (blue 2) that Wendy is supposed to accomplish. Chris won, and nothing happened? And then Wendy won and she completed the mission. I dont get it. Whats the point of Chris winning for that mission that was not his? Wasnt the mission was for Wendy to win that trick?

    • @hikerieger6319
      @hikerieger6319 Před 3 lety +3

      I will try to explain in the best way I can:
      Basically she needs to get a blue two (chris hand) and jarvis had a blue seven (chris doesn't know if wendy has a blue card higher than seven) so to be careful he plays a blue card to waste jarvis only blue card which is seven and eliminate the possibility of wendy not having a card higher than blue seven. The result of that trick was jarvis losing the only blue card and eliminating the possibility of jarvis winning the round by higher value, now chris plays the blue two wendy needs and she finishes it off with a blue card higher value than two making wendy win that trick and finishing her mission without the risk of jarvis winning by higher value

    • @ltmaniac
      @ltmaniac Před 2 lety +1

      Chris doesn’t win the first trick because the “blue 2” card was not played by any player.
      In order to win the trick, the mission’s card (blue 2 in this case) MUST be played.

  • @ericbess5917
    @ericbess5917 Před 3 lety

    So the one thing about 2-player is that you have to be prepared for the rare, unwinnable game. A simple example - if you have to take the blue 4 before taking the yellow 2, but the blue 4 is buried under the yellow 2 in Jarvis's hand. That would be rare, but if it happens, there is nothing you can do about it. Is there anything in the rules that addresses that? Or is it just something you have to accept as a possibility?

    • @DTChrisYi
      @DTChrisYi Před 3 lety

      If there's an unwinnable setup, we just play again. The nice thing is that the game is short enough that I don't mind if that happens.

  • @ShaunKTrait
    @ShaunKTrait Před 3 lety

    I'm confused.
    The rules state
    " If a player wins even a single card for which another player has the corresponding task card, you lose immediately"
    The side bar says
    "If a task is fulfilled by a crew member who does not possess the appropriate task card, you have lost"
    At the start the player without the blue task card won the trick, they played the blue 9, therefore you should have lost the mission, game over, however you just kept playing until the player with the blue task card, won a blue truck and got her card.
    Can you please confirm what's correct.

    • @MeepleOverboard
      @MeepleOverboard  Před 3 lety +3

      So that first card that had to be won was specifically the Blue 2. So while I won the first trick that had blue cards in it, Wendy won the one that had the Blue 2, so she is the one who completed her task card. Hope that helps clarify.

    @DragonSeekerXD Před 3 lety +1

    This was great, though in the rules the rocket cards should not be in the deck when you make jarvis cards. You deal his cards out then take the remaining cards mix in the rockets and deal out to the two players. Besides that great video!!!

    • @sephirothrr
      @sephirothrr Před 3 lety +4

      I think you're mistaken here - the rules only say to make sure the single four rocket is out of the deck, not all of them. I think your confusion might be that it uses "four rocket card", which can easily be mistaken for "four rocket cards"
