#50: Year in Review 2018

Von: Pickaxe
18. Dezember 2018 um 18:41
Another round about the sun is complete, at least for those who acknowledge that sort of thing. I'm certain there must be a strand of Flat Eartherism that bows to the reality of the Earth's orbit--I could find out, but boardgaming already more than satisfies my desire for obscure minutia. We look back at the releases of the year, agreeing on many things but rather sharply disagreeing on others. There will be lists! And categories! Oh, the pageantry!

Games Played Last Week:
-Space Hulk: Second Edition 1m30s (Dean Bass, Andy Chambers, Chris Colston, Richard Halliwell, Jervis Johnson, Andy Jones, & Paul Murphy, Games Workshop, 1996)
-Senji 2m58s (Bruno Cathala & Serge Laget, Asmodee, 2008)
-Terraforming Mars 6m19s (Jacob Fryxelius, Stronghold, 2016)
-Dinosaur Island 6m58s (Jonathan Gilmour & Brian Lewis, Pandasaurus, 2017)
-Cryptid 12m14s (Hal Duncan & Ruth Veevers, Osprey Games, 2018)
-Mega Civilization 13m26s (Flo de Haan, John Rodriguez, & Francis Tresham, Pegasus, 2015)
-Welcome To... 20m12s (Benoit Turpin, Blue Cocker Games, 2018)
-Reef 21m20s (Emerson Matsuuchi, Next Move Games, 2018)
-Menara 22m18s (Oliver Richtberg, ZOCH, 2018)
-Diamonds 23m00s (Mike Fitzgrald, Stronghold, 2016)

2018 Year in Review

Personal Top 10s 23m59s
SVWAG Game of the Year 45m06s
Other Categories 48m30s

Boardgames To Go 188 - Essen 2018 (with Chris Marling)

Openers: • OrbitalPikoko

Chris Marling (hairyarsenal)

Game designer, blogger, and real-life journalist Chris Marling joins me once again to talk about Essen. As he did two years ago, he had a new game launching at Spiel, so we get to hear about that. But he's also an enthusiastic game hobbyist like the rest of us, and he also talks about the event itself from that point of view. Chris loves the game fair, and has been going for quite a number of years. From that perspective, he's able to notice some shifts & changes in the hobby that affect the world's largest boardgame event itself. We talk about those, too. Chris was there, in part, to help launch his new game, Witless Wizards. If you were there, perhaps you saw him, played a demo with him, or got your copy signed. He came home with a lot of new games, as always, and by now he's had a chance to play most of them. (Remember, Essen itself is more of a game buying event than one with lots of opportunities for actually playing your purchases.) Chris gathered up ten titles he wanted to talk about for one reason or another. Sometimes because they're great games, sometimes for other reasons. Besides the two games mentioned in our Openers (above), Chris discusses Underwater Cities, Trapwords, Narabi, Orbis, Fool, Discover: Lands Unknown, Crown of Emara, Showtime, Gnomopolis, and The Color Monster.

Closers: • Downsizing a collection...mission accomplished! • How does journalism tackle the current game saturation situation? -Mark
