Description

One portentious day, Uwe Rosenberg will design a worker-placement game where polyomino sheep breed by being sown into fields that are also special power cards, and the Great Cycle will be complete. No one knows what happens then, and quite frankly we are too afraid to ask.Games Played Last Week:01:33 -Anachrony: Fractures of Time (Richard Amann, Viktor Peter, Dávid Turczi, & Mindclash Games, 2020)08:15 -Honey Buzz (Paul Salomon, Elf Creek Games, 2020)14:56 -The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine (Thomas Sing, KOSMOS, 2019)16:46 -Flick of Faith (Paweł Stobiecki, Jan Truchanowicz, & Łukasz Włodarczyk, Awaken Realms Lite, 2019)18:54 -Paris (Michael Kiesling & Wolfgang Kramer, Game Brewer, 2020)26:55 -Guards of Atlantis II: Tabletop MOBA (Artyom Nichipurov, Wolff Designa, 2021)29:46 -Dice Hospital (Stan Kordonskiy & Mike Nudd, Alley Cat Games, 2018)News (and why it doesn't matter):31:21 Red Rising from Stonemaier Games32:03 Assault on Doomrock: Ultimate Edition33:26 Oink Games on Kickstarter34:08 Patreon: Free games, Pledge of Indifference, and more34:51 The Dragon Prince Tales of Xadia RPG35:15 We Care: A Grizzled Game36:30 Unity and empathy: on whose terms?

A podcast about all manner of hobby games by Mike Walker and Mark Bigney. Bad games don't go easy on you, so we don't go easy on them. Thorough analysis via reviews, news, and discussion of topics in gaming. We take context seriously, we value your time, and we're not into hype. Just because games are fun doesn't mean we can't take them seriously, and just because we take them seriously doesn't mean we can't have fun.
