I think this might be my favorite Game Night episode ever. You guys were having so much fun! It was a blast to watch.

So it looks like we've just found the first game I'll be buying in 2022! These guys... if they were to make a video showing them playing Noughts & Crosses, they'd make it look amazing! Merry Xmas to the four of you, as well as all involved in GamesNight!, and everyone who watches your videos!

I love the level of excitement throughout the video!

I love how I've come to love and anticipate these weekly videos!

That looked like great fun, you guys were getting so into it, so have ordered it off the back of your excitement, thanks again for another great review and playthrough, Have a great xmas to you all from Steve and Clare

I did enjoy this episode very much.

Watched this with my family and immediately bought it as they all loved it. We were cheering yellow on from the first lap!

When you figured out the next draw would be the cards you all selected, that is when the game went a notch up for me. How could you plan for that effectively I'm not sure and maybe there isn't a way to truly know. I wonder why there isn't a dividing card notifying the players of this moment, the tension it brings is fantastic.

Thanks for the Holy Grail references Lincoln and Dave.

This was lovely, considering ordering one 😀

These are one of those games where I wish you had a camera angle pointed at a players hand so we can follow what decisions you are making during the game. Like a pocket cam like they have on televised poker games.

Out of the betting games you played, still like the camel one better due the slight counter-intuitive part of choosing cards but I definitely enjoyed the video very much 😁

I saw the title and I thought Tim Schafer was going to be here. :D

Looks fun. Dave mentioned choosing at random…reminds me of a time I played Gravwell and I just left my deck face down and chose the next card off the top of my deck each time. I won. That was the last time I played that game :)

100% win rate. Best time to retire from that game.

Loved watching this tense game. Also, I noticed that the box cover graphics are 100% clear. Not one person will be asking if this is Full Fthrottle.

Looks a joy.

Great video, BGG friends. This game does look like a lot of fun, a good silly warm up game.

Loved the episode. I may have missed it, but I didn't catch Nikki's score. However if my math is right I think she got 22? Merry Christmas to all!

Yeah they have a habit of squeezing her out at the end sometimes. They especially like talking over her. I'm more than sure it's not intentional. It just seems the testosterones takes over the table at the end. A great playthrough though.

to me, the best "cards and race" game ,remains "flamme rouge" which works pretty well from 2 to 4 players (6 with the second expansion) This one compares to camel up cards, maybe a wee bit less fun and chaotic

Such an amazing amazing game, must get this one.

Ok this has jumped to the top of my wish list.

This is such a brilliant design!

Love the look of this I will be purchasing as soon as it is available here in the uk 🇬🇧 great review and play through 🥰

A few minutes into watching the video and this seems like a fun simple game

At 11:48 - Yellow should move 1, but it can't, so it stays on the same space. Would it stay exactly where it is (i.e. on the outer lane), or would it in this case move to the inner lane of that space?

it stays where it is, moving lanes doesn’t really make a difference

How well does this play at 3 players?

Is this available in the United States, yet? Friedemann is quickly becoming one of my favorite designers.

This is coming from Rio Grande Games soon. I'm not sure of the timing though-Lincoln

So with the addition of Oink Games to the Switch,, has the GN! crew thought about featuring one of the games in the set that's on Switch?

Nice game. It's like Camel Cup but with actual decisions.

@@ThanatoselNyx Camel Up doesn't have any real decisions, you can do nothing in that game and somehow win. It's complete randomness.

Reminds me of Rallyman GT but simplified and with motorcycles

The only thing here that's similar to Rallyman is that it's a racing game. Rallyman has no betting. I mean, its more closer to Camel Up!

Sure seems like players have minimal agency despite the mechanism of removing cards from the deck. You didn’t get far enough into the deck for the last 8 of the 16 cards each player selected to have any effect on the race (by virtue of their removal). Seems like you would play this once, figure that you should defensively remove 3’s at the outset and then offensively select 1’s for the remainder, and then watch the randomness play out.

How can you be sure to draw a card for each moped in a turn?

You can't. The cards are shuffled so what comes up is completely random. Thanks for the note and for watching-Lincoln

Well we all need some lighter games sometimes to rest our brains from other heavier games.

The inside outside lane makes no sense as there's no penalty for being in the outside lane. My assumption is that it's supposed to take 1 move going to the outside lane and then you have to immediately pull back in.

When I first heard about the game I thought there would be more turns to play after the first ride through the back. So while playing it seems to be funny while I think you made it much more funny than the game actually is. I couldnt figure out any reasonable tactic. So, while watching the video was really entertaining, I'm also quite disappointed about the gameplay itself. It would be much more interesting if you would go through the deck full 2 or 3 times. Seems to be impossible to tactically remove 3pt-cards just to prevent that colour from moving further. I'm sure that those guys who blindly buy that game while watching this great video, will shortly be disappointed.

All four of y’all need to move out of California before everything is locked down and you have to put the show on another hiatus. Even though I liked the Game Night Date Night there is something really special about everyone being together.

Hey Aron, remember the United States has no official language. Also with 136k subscribers surely they are not all Americans!

This looks terrible. Get 'camel up' if you want something that plays similar to this but actually good.
