Board games bring together so many people around the globe. Thank you so much for making a docu series around CGE’s story ❤🎲

Love how Vlaada said that he wouldn't like to play Mage Knight lol

When I met him and told him it's my favourite game of all times he seemed veeery disappointed 😂

This game is a masterpiece. I'm looking forward to the next episodes!

Je zážitek, sledovat jak vzniklo CGE a vidět lidi, s čím do toho šli a kam je to celé zavedlo. ❤ Respekt a obdiv. 😎

Wow! Just wow Eleni! You did a great job! And others from CGE too of course. Very nice video 👏 Really looking forward to the next episode.

Amazing history!! Congratulation CGE, Vlaada and the all the partners!! Thanks for yours wonderful board games!! I`m Brazilian board gamer colector and entusiast difusor. Since 80 decade I love board games and play with my friends and family!!

This is a perfect example of some creative friends coming together putting their enthusiasm into a project that continues to delight me. Thank you so much for putting this documentary online, I highly appreciate having the opportunity to watch and listen and notice the nerdy smirky glow in your eyes when you talk about how it all started out. Lovely. Just lovely!

Ι watched this with smiling throughout! What a story and absolutely lovely narration❤ thank you Vlaada and all the amazing people at CGE for the countless hours of fun you provide with your work!

Premieres in 20 hours? But i want it now!

Excellent story. Excellent production. Thank you.

Dobře si pamatuju Vlaaduv prototyp Proroctví v klubu deskových her v Brně, pěkná hra, na mě trochu dlouhá, ale fajn. Nevěděl jsem, že vlastně jdu kolem historie :) Každopádně Proroctví hrajeme do dneška, samozřejmě proložené Krycími jmény :)

Proroctví byla první pořádná hra, kterou jsme doma měli. Hráli jsme ji s dětmi pořád dokola včetně všech rozšíření. Pořád ji doma máme.

So nice to know a little bit more now about history of one of the favourite board game publisher. Would love to see next episodes!

Really enjoyed seeing the faces and the history around this one! Great production too :) Look forward to the Tash-Kalar episode, so everyone can marvel at the story of that one, and then hopefully build up enough enthusiasm to another expansion deck or four! I know Vlaada's got some amazing ideas tucked away there, bring them to us!!

Fantastic story, well told. Nice to see the Rare eyes on the lead eng’s copy. TtA remains my favourite board game and still play the digital implementation almost every single day. And I still suck at it.

Let's go 😁😁

Сквозь века - моя любимая настольная игра, и, конечно, ее придумал прекрасный человек, не могло быть иначе. Как хорошо, что в нашем мире есть такие чудесные люди как Влаад и его команда, спасибо им, что родились 🙂

Wow, even if I have copy of first edition of Through the Ages and I am playing games in Czech Rep. more then 20 years, I never heard history of CBG. What i shame on me. Thanks for this nostalgic memories and mood.

Well done! Looking forward to see Mage Knight episode. :D

Mage Knight episode is not in the schedule as far as this game was designed by Vlaada, but it's not in CGE portfolio. :(

Indeed 😢

Excellent!

Vlaada's games were what made me love boardgaming. My first real game was Agricola, and then I found Through the Ages and Dungeon Lords. They are still among my most favourite games. Dungeon Petz and Space Alert are also fantastic. Most days I play a game or two of Through the Ages on my phone.

Skvělé!!!

🍿🍿

Holy cow! I would pay for a set of those prototype cards for Dungeon Lords! That art is joyful.

So happy to watch this. All this history for our great hobby. Thanks for taking the effort in making this happen.

A great piece! Well done all!

Thanks for this great video! Minor nitpick: Around 13:44, you‘re showing „Sid Meier’s Civilization: The Board Game“ from FFG (2010), but I think Vlaada was talking about the one from EGG (2002).

Epic, subscribed

Wow! Such a great first episode. Loved it and can’t wait to se the whole documentary ❤️

Fantastic! Thank you for producing this! I can’t wait for the next episode

Thank you guys for all of your commitment to this. You've created something very special together. (PS Through the Ages is my favourite game!) 💚

What struck me after hearing the END of this story was: how weird! TTA was in a way CGE's signature game, known by gamers everywhere, yet in the end, the original was NOT a CGE publication. And although it inspired CGE to begin publishing games, for 5 years they were doing so in a tiny office, presumably without the trappings of success. If you were making a Hollywood film about the company (say like they did Facebook) this is not how you would expect things to go. It would be an overnight success, as everyone acknowledged TTA's brilliance, and CGE would be catipulted to fame. I think the real story would make a great alternative film. About people who really cared about games, not necessarily about fame and fortune.

Through the Ages has been my top 1 game of all time ever since I had the first play of it. Hundreds of different games played after that first play, it's still my favorite games up to this day. Thank you guys for existing. Greetings from Brazil.

great docu

Awesome video! After committing so much time and effort into Through the Ages and other Czech Games... games, I had the chance to learn the whole story behind it! Like, how it begun, how it came to life, plus how in initially worked. Thanks for this, looking forward to the next ones!

thank you so much for this doc.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful story. You are an expiration for us which are starting your same path. ❤

CGE’s content on this channel has absolute been crushing it. I’m enjoying every upload. Keep up the great work. Love seeing this.

Well put together. Nice to relive some of those moments :) I should come to say hello!

Arena was one of my very first board games. It has an amazing combat system. Still waiting for some expansions with new heroes though ;-). Please bring this masterpiece back to life! :-)

Fascinating! I have a couple of your games [thanks to Eleni's videos!] and I enjoy them. And great work, Eleni, producing the videos. I think my favorite effect was the route from Brno transforming into the way to Mordor.

...patiently waiting for Ep. 2

Nice story.

Vlaada pls come back!

liked the documentary, would the other capters talk more about the thinking process or development process on how a game was made?

@CzechGamesEdition

Жыл бұрын

yes :) we don't go into much depth as some episodes feature more than one game, but in certain games, we showcase what was the inspiration or the vision for them, the different prototype versions, as well as issues during the development process, the production and how they were tackled.

Fantastic. When's Part 2?

Why isn't Vlaada as active in BG designs nowadays?

Are you only doing CGE games or will you do other Vlaada games as well?
