I especially love the strategy this involves. I have pandemic at home and will play it every once in a while and it's always this collaborative effort "Oh so in your turn you'll do xy because you have that ability, and I'll do this instead and then next round we can try and meet to share this card" etc.

They really did. Then Sarah was taking all the discussion time acting like the game is unwinnable, seemingly because they called her Typhoid Sarah. They could barely talk to each other without her injecting before someone could respond with something helpful. Like, it's a PvE game, so you don't have to play it with your guard up like it's a PvP game.

To be fair... Didn't Sarah literally read that card out loud around 4:12? That feels like it's on everyone a bit because it's cooperative and she really did read it at the very beginning.
“Imagine what a pandemic is like” Has flashback of this entire year 😳
“ You didn’t watch that episode of Animaniacs?” That made me laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂 6:02

Board AF and TNTL are by far my favorite things you guys do
I love smosh so much so glad they have been able to keep relevant for 15 YEARS!! I hope my kids will watch smosh and laugh as hard as I have
Shayne is surprisingly cooperative in this game
The editing on this video is on point. Also, it's so cute how they all decided to party together when they realized they'd lose :D
I honestly love having ify in these recent videos, hope to see him a lot more on this channel!
Thank you for bringing back Board AF. Thank you for playing a real game instead of the normal party game stuff.
“Then you can help me clean up that Middle East... let me reword that” 😂😂😂
Favorite part of this whole thing was Sarah just constantly saying I went there
I love that Ify has been sticking around. I always liked him on College Humor and it’d be great to see him in the crew full time
I want to see more of this game. It's awesome and it requires teamwork. And i love how they're all on the same team ❤️
He’s introing and outroing. Can you guys just add Ify to the cast already?
This game is awesome. It is so balanced that saving the world usually comes down to just a couple of moves. I've lost more then won but it is a great game and should be played if you like board games.

I find that if I play just with one other person I tend to win more often then loose, even with the maximum epidemic cards. But with more players I start loosing a lot more but it also is more fun. Also I have yet to win a game where no medic is present, their ability tends to just be to valuable to go without.

Omg omg omg!!! I just realized how amazing it would be to watch my smosh family play chrononauts!!! It’s a card game but it’s time travel and you can like mess up the timeline or fix it or whatever and I just would love this so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love this game and it’s so cool to see more of ify here too! More games that have y’all working together please :D
Spencer is really going for that Steve Harrington look, isn't he?
I'm only 5 minutes in and this is already too complicated for me LOL
You can see at their faces that they’re still having fun at the beginning and being completely stressed out at the end.....
I'm Digging two things: 1) Seeing Ify on more shows. 2) Seeing Ify in a Nu shirt. Really is Bright. Kinda slaps me in the face.
“we’ve given up on america” haven’t we all
Iffy just fits in so well, he's such a cool guy
I love how Ify has just... become a smosh member, Idk if this was intentional but I love him so I’m not complaining
I've been incredibly depressed, watching you guys helps a lot ❤
Nobody: Me: smiling and crying of joy in the intro
Me, a native Montrealer: it’s... but it’s not...

I want to see this played again!! Maybe new people, or the same gang to redeem themselves
Ify: "BURN OSAKA AND HO CHI MINH" Me: Wow where have I heard that? Sounds like something Americans would do
I can’t help but feel like Damien would have loved this
We need a sequel to this where they win. The ending was UNSATISFYING! YOU CAN DO THIS NEXT TIME GUYS!!
I love how Ian looks like a little kid playing on his tablet at the adult table lol
I love this game! 😍 It’s one of my favorites to play with my family
Wow that spread so fast in America. I'm talking about the game, obviously.
I literally always lose pandemic for this same reason-being careful and avoiding outbreaks and all of a sudden there’s no cards left
I love cooperative games. Its like you're trying to solve a problem together much like escape rooms!
This was so much fun to watch. Shayne was so into it.

This game is so hard, it’d be great for y’all to play the legacy version of this and make it a series.
So fun watching them play a complex game and trying to keep up with them.
