#JasonReviews #BoardgameMechanics #CashnGuns 0:00 - Intro 0:09 - Title Screen 0:27 - Description of the Game 1:22 - Gameplay Overview 15:46 - Final Thoughts 18:43 - Credits In an abandoned warehouse a gangster band is splitting its loot, but they can't agree on the split! It's time to let the guns talk and soon everyone is aiming at everyone. The richest surviving gangster wins the game! Ca$h 'n Guns helps you relive the best scenes of your favorite gangster movies. The goal is to have more money than anyone else after eight rounds while still being alive. Each round, one player is the Boss, and he controls the pace of play. First, loot cards are revealed on the table to show what's up for grabs. Next, players load their guns by secretly selecting either a "Bang!" or a "Click! Click!" card from their hand. The Boss counts to three, and on "Three" each player points his foam gun at someone else; due to his status, the Boss can tell one player who's pointing a gun at him that he needs to point it in another direction. After a pause to observe threats and measure the seriousness in an opponent's eyes, the Boss counts to three again and anyone who doesn't want to risk getting shot can chicken out and remove themselves from the round. Everyone who's pointing a gun at someone still in the round now reveals their card, and anyone who's the target of a "Bang!" takes a wound marker and gets none of the available loot. Starting with the Boss, everyone still in the round takes one loot card at a time from the table — money, diamonds, paintings, the position of Boss, medical care (to remove a wound), or a new bullet (to add a "Bang!" card to your hand) — until everything has been claimed. After eight rounds, the game ends. Whoever has the most diamonds receives a big bonus, and paintings score based on the number of them that you've collected. Whoever has the most valuable stash wins! —description from the publisher For more information about Ca$h'n Guns: Second Edition: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/155362/cah-n-guns-second-edition To check out a little bit of everything that we do visit our website at: https://www.bgmechanics.com Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theboardgamechanics Follow us on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/boardgamemechanics Tweet at us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bgmechs If you would be interested in having us review/preview a game, or just want to chat, shoot us an email at: contact@bgmechanics.com

You work with the player on your left to build one city center while simultaneously working with the player on your right to build a second city center. On each turn you select two tiles from your hand, reveal them, then work with your partners to place one of your selected tiles into each of your two cities. At the end of the game, each city is scored for its architectural grandiosity. Your final score is the lower of the scores of the two cities you helped design, and the player with the highest final score wins the game. To win, you have to share your attention and your devotion equally Between Two Cities. The Essential Edition combines components from the original game and the Capitals expansion into one cohesive whole. While it features a bigger box than the original game, different art on some tiles, and a scorepad instead of a board, there are no new gameplay elements (i.e., if you own Between Two Cities and the Capitals Expansion, you already have everything). —description from the publisher For more information about Between Two Cities Essential Edition: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/369635/between-two-cities-essential-edition To check out a little bit of everything that we do visit our website at: https://www.bgmechanics.com Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theboardgamechanics Follow us on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/boardgamemechanics Tweet at us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bgmechs If you would be interested in having us review/preview a game, or just want to chat, shoot us an email at: contact@bgmechanics.com ***Review Copy Provided by Stonemaier Games***

#JasonReviews #BoardgameMechanics #Suspicion 0:00 - Intro 0:07 - Title Screen 0:26 - Description of the Game 1:29 - Gameplay Overview 9:05 - Final Thoughts 12:59 - Credits You are a jewel thief, and you've been invited to the mansion of someone who doesn't know that you engage in such nefarious doings. While at that mansion, you're going to try to nick as many jewels as possible, but *gadzooks* the mansion turns out to be filled with jewel thieves who are all trying to do the same thing.

Gems come in three types, and when one of the piles is empty, the game ends. Everyone guesses who is which character, then all identities are revealed.

#JasonReviews #BoardgameMechanics #NotThatMovie 0:00 - Intro 0:07 - Title Screen 0:26 - Description of the Game 1:36 - Gameplay Overview 6:33 - Final Thoughts 9:20 - Credits Pizza, couch, and friends: you just need a good movie! Like always, you cannot decide which one to watch together. Rely on reviews, imagine movie plots, and choose the perfect title! Will you discuss all night long or come to an agreement? In the co-operative party game Not That Movie! you have to choose the movie among a list of odd titles — but this might be a hard decision if you know only a couple of short reviews! In more detail, players must choose a movie for a "movie night" with friends. What title best fits the review cards? Players can select the movies from a list of eight "broken" titles composed of two movie titles mixed together. The result of these mixes might be brilliant, bizarre, and even weird: laughter is guaranteed! After secretly choosing, players in turn place "Not" tokens near a title they think no one chose. Each correctly placed token scores one point, and you have a free mistake per round. If you make no mistakes, you will score bonus points. You play five rounds and try to beat your previous scores and write your name in the score table. Will you ever reach the maximum of 40 points, with different player counts? Play with more than 25,000 movie titles no one has ever seen! (Note: This design was originally announced as Movie Night but during development the co-operative variant of the game was perfected to became the only official version.) —description from the publisher For more information about Not That Movie!: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/299180/not-movie To check out a little bit of everything that we do visit our website at: https://www.bgmechanics.com Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theboardgamechanics Follow us on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/boardgamemechanics Tweet at us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bgmechs If you would be interested in having us review/preview a game, or just want to chat, shoot us an email at: contact@bgmechanics.com ***Review Copy Provided by dV Games***

#JasonReviews #BoardgameMechanics #BangtheDiceGame 0:00 - Intro 0:07 - Title Screen 0:25 - Description of the Game 1:20 - Gameplay Overview 6:39 - Final Thoughts 9:46 - Credits In the U.S. wild west, the eternal battle between the law and the outlaws keeps heating up. Suddenly, a rain of arrows darken the sky: It's an Indian attack! Are you bold enough to keep up with the Indians? Do you have the courage to challenge your fate? Can you expose and defeat the ruthless gunmen around you? BANG! The Dice Game keeps the core of the Bang! card game in place. At the start of the game, players each take a role card that secretly places them on a team: the Sheriff and deputies, outlaws, and renegades. The Sheriff and deputies need to kill the outlaws, the outlaws win by killing the Sheriff, and the renegades want to be the last players alive in the game. Each player also receives a character card which grants him a special power in the game. The Sheriff reveals his role card and takes the first turn of the game. On a turn, a player can roll the five dice up to three times, using the results of the dice to shoot neighboring players, increase the range of his shots, heal his (or anyone else's) life points, or put him in range of the Indians, which are represented by nine tokens in the center of the table. Each time a player rolls an arrow, he takes one of these tokens; when the final token is taken, each player loses one life point for each token he holds, then the tokens are returned to the center of the table. If a player collects a trio of Gatling symbols on the dice, he fires one shot at everyone else and rids himself of Indian tokens. Who'll get his shot off first? Play continues until one team meets its winning condition – and death won't necessarily keep you from winning as long as your teammates pull through! —description from the publisher For more information about Bang!

#JasonReviews #BoardgameMechanics #Flamecraft 0:00 - Intro 0:07 - Title Screen 0:25 - Description of the Game 1:33 - Gameplay Overview 15:31 - Final Thoughts 18:40 - Credits Artisan dragons, the smaller and magically talented versions of their larger (and destructive) cousins, are sought by shopkeepers so that they may delight customers with their flamecraft. You are a Flamekeeper, skilled in the art of conversing with dragons, placing them in their ideal home and using enchantments to entice them to produce wondrous things. Your reputation will grow as you aid the dragons and shopkeepers, and the Flamekeeper with the most reputation will be known as the Master of Flamecraft. In Flamecraft, 1-5 players take on the role of Flamekeepers, gathering items, placing dragons and casting enchantments to enhance the shops of the town. Dragons are specialized (bread, meat, iron, crystal, plant and potion) and the Flamekeepers know which shops are the best home for each. Visit a shop to gain items and a favor from one of the dragons there. Gathered items can be used to enchant a shop, gaining reputation and the favors of all the dragons in the shop. If you are fortunate enough to attract fancy dragons then you will have opportunities to secure even more reputation. —description from the publisher For more information about Flamecraft: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/336986/flamecraft To check out a little bit of everything that we do visit our website at: https://www.bgmechanics.com Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theboardgamechanics Follow us on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/boardgamemechanics Tweet at us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bgmechs If you would be interested in having us review/preview a game, or just want to chat, shoot us an email at: contact@bgmechanics.com
