I remember being at Gen Con and seeing a giant version of this game being played with the road sticks being three feet long. It stuck in my mind for over five years until I built a giant version for myself at home. Yard parties and BBQs are so much better when the games are giant! So great to see one of my favorite games being played!

I love how
materially simple it is?
it's just like some wooden pegs and ice cream sticks yet it does so much
it really feels like a game someone who's never heard of it before could just accidentally invent again for their own amusement and I really appreciate that

I wasn't feeling the game just based on the description, BUT once you all started putting pieces down, it started feeling like a mixture of Jenga, Pick-Up Sticks, and lining up Domino pieces-- I had my knuckles at my mouth in nervousness!

This was so much fun to watch, but good GOD would I never be able to play it myself. Might have to introduce it to my (large, loud, Italian American) family for the annual Thanksgiving table top game playing though.

Less than 20 minutes in and Simone has already morphed into a hunched-up goblin, looking at the -normal people- at their -table- with a mix of awe and terror. Is that what privatized highways do to people?

The only thing more chaotic than this game alone is watching it with the playback speed turned up even the slightest bit. I know it-s not really that fast but it feels like they are loving way too fast

On the one hand, I sometimes tremble so much when even a bit nervous people think I have an issue. On the other hand. I also have that problem. That's why I enjoyed watching Tina play.

If anyone stopped me at the street and asked -Is the Polygon team the right asset to a highway architectural infrastructure task force? - I would make them watch this video.

Spoilers, I guess:
Awww, wanted Clayton to win but the way everybody (especially poor Simone and Tina) were losing their minds meant we-re the real winners. -

I've missed Overboard. Is this the first in a while or have I missed more? Hoping I can find a hidden trove. First time seeing Tina. Great addition to the squad.

I think you made a rules mistake. As I understand it, you're only supposed to give columns for every column, road or car knocked. You don't give roads.

Apparently you can also run your new bridge UNDER other bridges and place a car if there hasn't been one crossed below the opponent's highway yet too.

Simone and Tara acting as the angel and devil on the shoulder as tina struggles is an excellent dynamic.

Simone's anxiety rubbing off onto everyone else is both something relatable and something very very funny
