Pueblo » Forums » Reviews
Light (re)view [VIDEO]
I'm finding you can have a lot of fun with a cheap videocamera and cheap video editing software. I'm trying to combine experimenting with video editing (I have no previous experience whatsoever) and boardgames I enjoy, so after Crokinole and Polarity, here's my short (re)view of Pueblo:



Hope you enjoy... I certainly enjoyed making it. :D

Awesome job, Mosse!

A short review that was still full of content and humour. I look forward to many more reviews from you. Keep having fun with your video camera and editing software.

For this review, I cannot give out any Points of Shame!

Considering I just don't like abstracts (regardless of pasted-on theme), this actually looks quite playable and interesting. Good job on the video!

No, the Lazy Susan (a.k.a. cakey spinner thingy) doesn't come with Pueblo. One does come with Rumis, though...

That's right, it didn't. It came from IKEA. It even had one of those silly names like SNURRA, but I can't remember what anymore...

But I can't even imagine playing this game without either a spinner thingy, or playing it on a small coffee table so that you could easily walk around it - you really need to be able to see around the Pueblo to spot where to move the Chieftain.

We like this game quite a lot and I'm not usually a big fan of abstracts.

We don't need the spinner thing because our board has just a slight amount of warp to it, so that it is slightly rounded, making it quite easy to spin around on a smooth table top.

At first I was a little put off by the warp, but then discovered it was just what was needed. Made me wonder if they planned it that way. Guess not.

I hear that a lot about this game... Personally I do enjoy some abstracts, like YINSH, for example - but this actually doesn't feel too abstract... The theme seems more than just pasted on for show.
