    You guys did an amazing job with my games. The teaching was really well done, and the play really good. I understand perfectly how difficult and hard it is. I Imagine how many hours editing and filming took you to have this series done. Well done and thank you very much. You are awesome. Hope you had fun. See U on the next game. Thank you.

    P.S. I can’t rank my games. I always say the next one is my favorite. :) And don’t forget about the expansion for On Mars that will have 2 chapters of the game in a co-op version. It will be called Surviving Mars.

    You two are amazing! I was so afraid to play a Lacerda game until you started the series. My partner and I picked up Kanban as our first and it definitely had an impact. Thinking we may try CO2 next. Thanks for putting out these videos!

    thank you two for doing all of these. i live in OC, a lacerda fan, and have lived with two weinerdogs for over half of my life. my rankings: 7 - CO2 - just has not hooked me 6 - escape plan, for the same reasons as you. this may be my #1 if attending an event, though. because it is a bit more simple, and people like to laugh. 5 - vinhos 4 - the gallerist - this was my #1 until fairly recently 3 - kanban - with the new EV version, this should solidify it just ahead of the gallerist now. got that, ian? YOU did that. 2 - lisboa - it was #1 until on mars showed up. like you, it is really close between lisboa and on mars. i give the edge to on mars on the better iconography. 1 - on mars - probably 25 plays in, and i still get humbled, badly, at least half the time. i will have a great game, think about what i did to have achieved it, and then fail horribly at trying to recreate the magic the next time. i now just try to be as opportunistic as possible. nothing is off the table. that is the mark of a great game. many, many avenues to success. give your pup a belly rub for me.

    Surviving the Lacerda marathon is a credit to you both. Brilliantly presented and taught. Look forward to an Uwe Rosenberg or Daniel Tascini series
  • Lacerdas games are great. Had a game of Lisboa with my friends 2 days ago. Took us 6 hours to get through tutorial and finish 1 game with 4 people. Thanks to your video tutorial our patience was preserved.
  • @thomdenick1388
    You taught me first Lacerda game (Kanban) so getting your perspective on the whole library is amazing! Thank you!
  • You are my favorite 2 player board gamers. You are like Donald and his Quack. Subscribed!

    Had a first time session for On Mars yesterday, 4p game and I was on doing the teach. 1st half of the game, my group hated it. Then, it clicked in the 2nd and everything just flowed. Now they're clamoring for a second play. What an experience! Looking forward to getting Gallerist and Kanban EV

    Will be interesting to see if Kanban moves up after you play EV
  • @gygeson5888
    Great video! Thank you so much for doing these videos and sharing your passion for the games with us. Vital is one of our favorite designers as well (my wife and I). I particularly liked your Vinhos video and used it before we played that one. Keep up the good work!
  • @conradratchford
    Thanks for the series! Your videos were super helpful when deciding which Lacerda to get, and very enjoyable to watch.
  • Great job throughout the entire series. Your hard work and passion comes through in each video and this was a great way to top it off!
  • @marknadeski7485
    Great job on the series and I love this recap of the games and hearing your thoughts on them. You channel is the like the Lisboa of board game playthroughs! 😉❤
  • thanks a lot for this series! i really enjoyed it, and was eagerly awaiting the on mars play through. lisboa was my first lacerda, and would be #1 for me as well. so, so elegant, both in appearance and game design...
  • @mohre5911
    Thank you so so so much for the great great Vital Lacerda series. I've started watching your videos with Tapestry. You should continue playing games from a designer and rank them besides the normal reviews. Thank you!!!!
