This is my first ever video overview of a board game.

It just covers the base version of Settlers of Catan.

I hope you like it. Feedback is welcome.

(I've slightly modified the audio levels so now it should be easier to hear what I'm saying).

While watching your video, and trying to keep a new gamer's perspective, I can say that your video was very well put together. My only personal gripe that I'd have to mention is that I find the music you used (and your "laugh track") to be a bit of a distraction, especially as the volume of your voice is fairly medium to low, and at times would compete.

Otherwise, very well put together.

Thanks for the comments.

I've modified it so that the audio levels are more evenly balanced. I've also removed the laugh sound effect.

Good job Tim. I've yet to play Settlers and your video review gave a very good idea of what the game is all about.

Keep up the good work.

Good video. Nice, short and concise.

I just wish you haven't used that utterly exhausting "wood for sheep" joke which I think by now should be officially banned.
