3. You assess the value of getting the token yourself. They made it sound vague enough that i believe they want players to decide if they think the items in side quests are worth it or not without knowing. That being said, nearly everyone says that if you try this side quest they lost. I would suggest only trying it if the minion cheese wheel has 0 or 1 cheese.

Hello! :blush:

I was wondering, we played this yesterday with the side quest without any problems at all and not once mouse captured. I watched Rodney's great videos and now I am reading all BGG Forum Rules topics. So far we have missed nothing. Why do you think that is? :what:

When I was demoing this at Gencon, I had a group that breezed through the first chapter even taking on Brodie and the side quest. It was really fun to watch them have the exact right answer for every challenge. Twice Maginos rolled 3 bows when using Chain Lightning, Nez squishing Brodie with one whack of his hammer. Gaining Miz Maggie's attention on the first try etc.

Each chapter is different offering different story based challenges for your mice to overcome. Just because you waltzed through Ch1, don't expect that to be the norm.
