Scythe is one of the most critically acclaimed and user acclaimed board games involving eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate formula (4x). The gameplay is deep enough to make a CS:GO/LoL player get aroused with statistics and strat analysis.

This is little Vienna:

Vienna and her dad designed My Little Scythe, winner of the free print & play game of 2018.

and now this trailer which was thought to be a joke plants an August 17th release date for $49.95

Your thoughts? Do you think this would still be too complicated for most adults?

Real talk. Why the fuck would you post a picture of a 6 year old girl on CE of all places? What makes you think that's appropriate in any way? And why the FUCK are you saving pictures of a 6 year old in the first place?

Okay, and? Not knowing how to play chess doesn't automatically make you stupid. It's a strategy game with several different types of units

What on earth are you talking about? It's not a requirement to learn how to play chess or to swim. Not in school, or life.

"helped design"

What does that term even mean? All she could've done is press keys her father told her to for one page of code

When it's kids, it's "bullying" but if it were adults, it's stalking, harassment, assault, criminal threats and just general abuse. -Tmk

I wonder what kind of armies you can build in that game. There must be a lot of different types of cavalry units.

I hate when parents let their kid do some small thing and then they gloat about what their "GENIUS KID" did.

In the original Scythe, its just mechs. However each mech you build unlocks one of four abilities. Two abilities are custom for each faction.

Scythe is not really about combat though, as you may only encounter a fight one to four times a game (you can only get Stars for winning combat twice unless you play as Saxony)

I am not talking about Scythe. I am talking about the 4x game shown in the picture. It's clearly a cavalry-based game. I wonder what the combat is like.

^ My Little Scythe will already be a best seller. The base board game alone sold like crazy, and STILL sells out requiring more reprints to meet demand.

On a side note: Scythe Rise of the Fenris was announced today for $55, drops August 17th, and is the final expansion to Scythe. (probably not unless Jamey needs more money, ha)

Me either, I only learned chess because my dad taught it to me, also playing with friends a few times.

Scythe is legit Tokugawa represent, and that My Little Scythe trailer is hilarious and definitely comes off as a joke. But props to making accessible versions of complicated games for kids, just not sure why they didn't just abandon having Scythe in the title.
