Episode 134 - What We Talk About When We Talk About Games That Play Fast
Good luck keeping up with the conversation in this week's throwback WWTA episode, because things move fast. If you don't believe me, then check the timestamps. We throw out games quicker than you can say, "I miss old school board games where you had to wait 20 minutes between turns!" In this week's episode we discuss, broadly, games that play fast, what that means, and what we perceive as a growing appetite in the board game hobby for this titular phrase. Ready or not the Interdecisional Spaceship is taking off right now! (Wow! That was fast.)
 
Pre-Planners

Hey pre-planners, get those plays in of Ark Nova and Food Chain Magnate while the playing is good. Other games we are considering for a deep dive right now are Torres and Santa Monica.
