Unboxing EPOS: A Gentes Game
In this video I take a look inside the box of "EPOS: A Gentes Game", which definitely shares some similarities with the original "Gentes", but is adding a ton of extra stuff in form of scenarios.

Curious about this one since I own the original Gentes. Thanks for the video, Markus!
Thanks much, Stasia! Hope I can bring it to the table this Thursday :)
Nice! Looking forward to your playthrough 😊
Thanks much, Karthik! I am almost certain you may have played this one already 🫣 🤭
sieht nach einem interessanten Spiel aus, bin gespannt 😀
Vielen lieben Dank :)

Thanks for showcasing this one, Markus. I enjoy seeing older games being played as well as the new ones.
Thanks so much, Stasia and same here: I also heavily enjoy some of the „older“ stuff.

Dieses Spiel findet in einem Baumhaus statt?
Yeah - it’s basically the Scandinavian version of this: boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/171890/best-treehouse-ever ;)
This is the first time I've seen an Yggdrasil gameplay video. I like the way tokens are drawn, and how they can be returned to other bags later - I've always been a fan of chit-pull and bag-building mechanics. I don't know why but I get a kind of "Ghost Stories" vibe from this, though it's obviously completely different ... maybe I have low blood sugar or something? 😂
Not a big deal, the game is just 13 years old or so ;-) And 100% agreed - I really like a good chit pull mechanic!
still love this game, 10/10
Thanks much and yes, it’s still working quite well!
I have heard that this game is notoriously difficult to win which is why I have never looked into owning it. Good luck to you, Markus!
Thanks, Stasia. This one can really be a challenge. Afaik you can master it at some point in time (to some extent), but I am nowhere near :-)
I've only ever played the base game with the patent rules are it's very easy to manage. It's mostly to prevent other players from using your cool new building before you get a chance - something that has repeatedly hurt the game experience for a lot of people. I like the big chunky tokens for it in this expansion.
The increased gold for trade was another officially recommended rules update from the designer/publisher that I've always played with. I also recommend that rule even with the base game.
Thanks and great to know! It was a strategy/tactic to get rid of the heavy industries once you no longer needed those - which you can still do of course. I have played this game like 20 times or so and honestly never came to the problem with what the patent tries to solve actually… I do see that the expansion is dealing with some changes; the extra engineer at the start and the proper „price“ for higher tier trades is definitely a good change.
Fantastic play through of the two player version. Thank you very much.
Thanks much - glad it’s somewhat useful!
I have an old edition sealed copy. I’ve been debating playing, but I know how difficult it is. (I also had the app)
If you are not sure, suggest to keep it sealed - might be worth a fortune :-D
@@realjplay true, that is why I kept it in shrink, but games are meant to be played, too. I will have to decide in the future.
Hi, do you have video of part 2 and final boss battle?
Unfortunately not - the interest wasn’t huge back in the day, so I decided to move on. Thanks for your interest!
Great video! But you misspelled the game in the video title
Oh - thanks much! Something fancy with auto-correction I suppose! Already corrected :) Thanks again!

Looks interesting. Would like to see a scenario or two on your channel. 🙂
Thanks much! Still waiting for a rules confirmation but then might consider doing one!
So disappointed that this is not coming out in English...
Yeah, but as said not sure if this is really a thing or an urban myth?!
you need to start making your Spiel Essen plans. once was enough for me. the steak dinners and the evening light show in the town square near the train station were my highlights.
I am not a great strategist, so I do this typically one day before or so ;-) Are you going again?
@@realjplay nope
Great playthrough! I've recently bought the original Quacks with two expansions so still a lot of plays ahead of me so I'm not going to buy the duel but your video was very pleasant to watch, very informative and the game itself seems quite nice, a bit like a tug-of-war style.
Thanks so much! Really appreciate your comment and yes, if you own all the stuff from the original game you may not necessarily need this one; even though it definitely has some unique mechanics.
I would love to see one of the expansion scenarios.
Thanks for your interest, will definitely consider it!
No English 😢
At least right now. The English version for the base game also came quite late as far as I can remember.
So no english version but german text on the cards 😞
No English and minimal German text. Amazon Germany has it, so don't deny yourself as the expansion and solo mode are highly regarded.
Indeed - the text on the cards is really minimal, it's almost language independent; apart from the rules of course.

Thank you for continuing the play through, Markus! It is appreciated.
Thanks, Stasia! It was also quite fun to play ;-)
@@realjplay Good to know! I own it and really need to get it to the table.
Definitely do, you might enjoy it :)
ALOHA 🏝️🤙. Super ce DUNGEON DEGENERATES 💪💪💪. Summon c'est qu'à la fin du premier tour si l'ennemi est toujours vivant il invoque un autre ennemi 😂😂😂
Thanks - had to run this through a translator, but I sure you are correct: I have missed the occasional rule (or two) ;-)
@@realjplay i take all of DUNGEON DEGENERATES 💪💪💪😍😍🤩. It arrived soon youpi 🤣🤣🤣. The best game of adventures in this World of punk métal 🥰🥰🥰
I just started playing imperial assault this year. It haunts my dreams now. I also just learned today this can be played by yourself 😅
Ha - there were a lot of (unofficial) solo modes out pretty early; I covered one of those relatively early on actually. Of course with the app, things are a bit more "professional" - I quite like it.

Great video. Sub'd. Thanks!
Thanks much - really appreciate it!
You know the rules, but your tactic is really bad. When a minion is in the dungeons, don't explore. Use free action in the dungeon to kill a goblin... try again
Yeah - I don’t really have a tactic with this game (or any game) ;-)
What a finish! Holy crap! A natural 10 without modifiers while facing down a regenerating troll at 1 HP! 🤣 I cannot possibly stress enough how powerful air, earth, and fire essences are in combat. You have other healing options, so water is generally more useful elsewhere; but removing one die completely devastates most enemies and can let a starting character kill some level 2 monsters right out of the gate. Earth essence is a max-damage roll on a stick. Fire essence can turn a whiff into three damage or a 10+ roll into 7, etc. Really make an effort to confront as many elementals as possible. And also, as you unintentionally demonstrated in this video, a lower to-hit value is a FAR safer option than relying entirely on modifiers like Gaar to land any damage whatsoever. Do not leave that much of your fate to dice. They cannot be trusted.
True that - I really shouldn’t trust any dice and absolutely: that’s a lesson I learned to leverage the elementals more frequently!
One of the best Epic Games with Theme. I love this games disregarding his flaws. Flaws: Time consuming +8h
Thanks and definitely agree! Best combat system ever (basically unmatched) but yeah, can take some time ;-)
Can u do a playthrough of fresco card and dice game..theres nothing on you tube in english
Thanks for your interest. I do own (and like) the original „Fresco“, but wasn’t really aware of the card and dice game, so I don’t have access to it right now. If I somehow get hold of it I can definitely consider a video.
Yes, I’d enjoy seeing more of this!
Thanks much! Hope you are doing well!
Thanks for the playthrough, Markus! I have owned this one for a bit and not played it yet, something I really need to remedy. I hope that you will continue on with it!
Thanks, Stasia - it's really a nice little game. Devir (and KOSMOS) really put a lot of "game" into a relatively small box; it's also very nice to look at!
@@realjplay Devir does that, I have found. I now own several of their small box line of games and all of them have managed to get "big" games into small boxes.
Definitely agree! The one exception in respect to the box size that comes to mind is "Ierusalem" ;-)
@@realjplay Bitoku is another that is in a larger box and has a lot of game in it. I really need to get hold of Ierusalem at some point!

Thanks so much and great it was of some use to you! :)
Vielen Dank für das Video. Ohne RUclips Videos wie deine ist die Anleitung ja teilweise kaum verständlich 😂. Aber als absoluter Masters Fan musste ich es kaufen
Vielen lieben Dank!
I would not mind seeing the end of the playthrough, Markus!
Thanks so much, Stasia!
Great play though! Definitely would like to see the finish to this one. Campaign mode sounds interesting also! 🙂
Thanks so much! The „campaign“ is basically the same thing, but the AI opponent will get more possibilities to score. Somehow reminded me of the campaign in „Cascadia“.

This was fun, would you do more playthroughs? Who is your favourite villain?
Thanks, much! I haven't really played the game enough to make a call, but I definitely want to play against Dark Willow at some point in time!
I bought this last year and played it "single player" and loved it (Ofc, I wiped on the boss after playing for 6 hours - I loved that as well)! I'd love to play it co-op but I need to find someone crazy enough to set aside a day off for it...
Ha - yeah you definitely need some time! I played it once with full 6 players and the official PvP rules; we played over 8 hours (ok, including a very small pizza break) ;-)
i’d love a full playthrough - thank you so much for the video!
Thanks so much - appreciate your interest and more to come!
