It's a shame they didn't appear 'in character'.

found it hard to shake the irrational feeling that some of the voiceovers were being done by the original actors

I've watched this four times now. Dani/Denise is the strangest and funniest.

It really drives home how many times Joff gets slapped in this show.

Haven't played it yet, it's a bit daunting.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:33 (ten years ago) link

i've played a few times.

Is it fun? I've never played one of those super elaborate board games before.

polyphonic, Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:39 (ten years ago) link

it's cool - once you get the hang of the rules (takes a game). the tough part is finding 4 people who know the rules or are at least willing to try.

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:40 (ten years ago) link

it's usually best with 5 people. 4 is no good (because the entire south is empty) and 3 is ok.

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:40 (ten years ago) link

I would imagine you need a pretty big table?

polyphonic, Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:42 (ten years ago) link

I've got a house full of willing players, but totally unwilling rule readers. I am designated board game explainer.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Thursday, 13 February 2014 19:42 (ten years ago) link

so how does it all end?

you may not enjoy this, then. you kind of need to know the rules in order to set up your pieces and plan things etc

Porto for Pyros (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Thursday, 13 February 2014 20:10 (ten years ago) link

I might suggest a few open rounds before we play for real in that case. Seriously, these people will not pick up a rulebook.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Thursday, 13 February 2014 20:47 (ten years ago) link

my friend has that game and we keep meaning to play it but nobody wants to figure out how
