    I've heard lots of good things about this game, and it's really cool to see how it works, too! You are, as always, the Mr. Rogers of board games. You rock!!!! I sometimes listen to your videos just for the narration when I want to relax, like those awesome book narrators. You could be any kind of orator! :)

    Am I able to upgrade a large creature that was played on a future turn? Or is it locked once it’s been used?

    @@WatchItPlayedthat’s ok! Say I have 2 small creatures touching and I lay a large animal on top. Could I remove that large animal in a later turn if I now have a 3rd small animal touching the original 2 hex tiles… or all all turns final and when you lay down it has to stay put. Hope that clarifies. 😂
