@@patchdavis35 This is definitely a "problem" in many of these games, because your problem space is large and continually expanding. But as I explained to my parents last night when I was teaching Everdell, this is a good thing long term because it is what makes games "easy to learn, difficult to master". The basic mechanics of HOW to play are easy enough to learn but to be really skilled and masterful you need to expand your brain to take in this larger problem space which is where the real challenge comes in

The girl in the shop was raving about it at check out so we were pretty sure we were on to a winner. Opened the box, did some assembly and decided to "do the right (female ;-)) thing" by reading the manual and giving the intro scenario a go to make sure I actually understood (most of) the rules for this evening's test run. As I was still a bit unsure about the ins and outs, decided to watch your video and am now pretty sure that, with some additional checks on the night, I'll be able to guide us through a successful play.

This was very easy to understand. My brother and nephew love to play boardgames but sometimes, there isn't time to explain the rules to me. So, I usually lose bc I have to learn as I go. Now that my brother has introduced me to you, I have a better chance at playing the game, rather than learning. I'll still lose bc my nephew is a beast at boardgames, but I'll have fun and he might just find me to be a decent challenger at his all star title. Thank you and your team for producing a great tutorial. I'm sure I'll be watching more.

So nice to know that these videos are making it easier for you to get into the game - and hey, if you're still losing, at least you know why :) Keep it up, and win or los, keep having fun!

Played Wingspan at Dice Board Game Lounge, Portsmouth, Hants, UK, on Thursday 14th Apr 2022. They ran through the instructions for us, 5 of us played it and loved it so much, we played it a 2nd time, which was great as one of our group got a high score, which went on their monthly leader board. Then I got an offer on the game on the internet and bought it. Love this game, so many different possibilities.

Thank you so much for having captions! You the man Rodney 👊 Also, sidenote - it's really remarkable how many comments you read and respond to. With the amount of negativity that's just inevitable from internet comments (even tho this community is the best), how do you stay so balanced and zen?? Is there any specific meditation or other practice you use?

I've been fortunate to not get too many overtly negative comments, but they do come in. I think it helps that I don't take *any* of the comments *too* seriously. It's certainly nice to get kind comments, but I also try not to take them too seriously either. I'd prefer to take the work seriously, and hope that it's helpful. If that's seems to be the case, then I try not to overly worry about what people think about me as a person, since people can't really know that fully through a video anyway. But thank you for the kind words either way - appreciated!

Just got here after watching yours and Quintin Smith's 10 yr anniversary video - thanks for this one - I've only played it once with my son, & neither of us had ever played it. We got some things wrong, I see, and missed a WHOLE lot of details. My regular gaming bunch are yearning for the pandemic to be over so we can get together again. In the meantime, your videos are going to see me through this tabletop game drought! Love your site!

I've watched several of your videos before playing a new game, and just now started watching the one for Jaipur. I was so surprised to see Andrea, who was an incredible student of mine several years ago. I had no idea you were local to me. Nice to "see" Andrea again- I'll never forget the incredible song she wrote and performed for class. Congratulations on your successful video series!

Great video! I'm a little late to the Wingspan party, but this got me up to speed quickly. Played with the Automa (very easy to manage) and now feel more than ready to teach my family. Thanks!

Stopped by after our first play to see if we did everything correctly... and I think we did, except for some reason, we limited our birds cards to 5 in the hand. Will have to recheck that rule. Fell in love with this one after only 1 play.... can't wait to go again!
