27:46 Move the artifact to your play area. You have the option to immediately resolve its effect, ignoring the cost in the corner. But you can’t use it two times (it should be in the play area, not in hand)

Correct. I added this as a note to the video already.

I am getting much John Mulaney vibes when you talk. I love it.

Saw this and two expansions at my usual gaming store. I'd never heard of them, but after watching how smoothly this automa plays I will certainly be getting them. :)

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I’m a bit confused about the Dig a Site action for the AI. Whenever he draws the “basic resource” tile, does it have to be a site with only that icon (Tablet) or doesn’t matter if that site is a mix with Tablet, Ruby and Compass???

@OneStopCoopShop

It’s on page 20, but to summarize the AI wants to take ANY spot with that resource. When there are multiple, it takes the one in the highest row, then breaks left/right ties with the arrow on the back of the next card.

Again, when you went to level 2 you did not pay the 6 compasses to defeat the first monster, yet you did for the second. Also, the artifacts, I thought come to your hand and though it does take an action, you get to use it free the first time. Then you place it with your other played cards (not use it right away paying the tablet) then it will get shuffled and put at the bottom of your deck at the end of the round. Thanks for the play thru!

The artifact play was definitely an error. I note it in the video description and the pinned comment. Sorry about that! As for the payment, like I replied to your first comment, I'm pretty sure I never forgot to pay the costs, I just didn't always pause the play to show that in detail.

So Arnak or Dune? If I gotta buy one?

@OneStopCoopShop

If it has to be one or the other, I’d say Arnak if you will play solo more, Dune if you will play multiplayer more

Robinson Crusoe is a much more satisfying and challenging game. If you achieve its objectives it is a WOW in satisfaction. This is a much much easier, lite, game. I think you chose,,,, wisely! 🧐

@@stevegeorge7773 I'll agree that RC is much more challenging. "Satisfying" is totally going to depend on the gamer and the group :) But honestly, except for sharing sort of a jungle theme, these two games are very little alike

@@OneStopCoopShop Except for the exploring. The decisions in RC are much more sophisticated and interrelated. The depth of play isn't comparable, for sure. But this game is great, in the space it fills.

9:10 you go to explore level 1 temple. You could not go there unless you play 3 compasses and the jeep. You could do that if you cashed in your 2 green cards for 2 compasses and used the 1 you started with, but you did not announce that you were doing that.

@OneStopCoopShop

Sorry if that was confusing, but yes, like I said at 9:00, I had 3 compasses (from the 2 cards and 1 token), and I spent them to explore.

Still confused as what all is considered a free action and what is not.

Generally speaking it’s placing a worker and playing cards that cost an action to play (I forget which icon it is), and maybe researching too? I haven’t played in a bit

That board is so badly thought out, they should have flipped it plus split it up into a couple of boards, who the hell has a table that deep lol
