I actually love that he didn’t edit it. I think it makes it human and makes him very like-able. Thanks for the video!❤

Good video, but I think you forgot to edit some parts.

my simple rules for 2P catan: both players play 2 colors simultaneously the best that they can, and their two colors cannot trade with each other. seemed to work well

Wow! Thank you so much for posting this video. I just played 2 player Catan and it was great. Your video really explained things well. I have reviewed many board game instructional videos over the years and this was by far the best. Can't wait to see what you post next!

We love many versions of 1V1 The kind we like most is where both players play simultaneously. You still take turns rolling but you go through the turn phases simultaneously, when every there is a conflict then whoever rolled has priority. There is never dead time, no neutral players. It is wonderful
