Hey that's Mark Streed. Man I love this guy's enthusiasm for all things tabletop. Big ups to Geek & S for putting this guy in the picture his work over the years promoting the hobby has been truly sincere and unabashed. Great abstract game too...so infectious without any analysis paralysis and players helping one another to think through the moves. Super fun for conversational gaming.

@@BD12 From what I heard G&S got bought by another company. The company got greedy with paywalls. This didn't sit well with Wil so he left. Really a shame since he's a better host than Becca.

Nice mechanics but it _really_ needs a simple 'list of moves' small card for each player (and the 'Element' Tile with the basic rules for that element). Those first few rounds of a new game are key. But that's just my idiot thoughts, I love what you've done with it all!

Nora had a winning hand at the end of the last game. Instead of moving up with the river, a move downwards would be better. Place the first fire token directly north of the trapee, place the second fire to the right of the first one which spreads to the left. Then with the earth, you smelt the first fire stone to make metal that attracts the diagonal metals to fill in the last open space

I think it's only one expansion, but with 3 different new element possibilities (lighting, metal, and wood) -- but, no, you can't play them all at the same time because you only get one additional color of marker (silver). 🤔 If you had THREE new colors instead? Maybe... I don't _think_ the rulesets contradict each other... But it would probably get complicated, and you're less likely to have synergistic interactions on the board because you'll have a smaller density of the same element markers (i.e. fewer waters next to each other to make rivers, fewer earths next to each other to make mountain ranges, fewer metals in the same area to attract and repel, etc.).
