Board games—those magical realms where cardboard, dice, and imagination collide. Whether you’re plotting world domination or unraveling mysteries, these tabletop adventures unite friends, families, and foes. And in this release, we hear Marty’s family tell you why that is true with their reviews of Donut Shop and Granblue Fantasy Skirmish Game.

But we also hear about a card game that fits right at home with RDTN called Squirrels: The Card Game. This Uno style game with a solid competitive flare will get the whole family involved as you see who can get rid of their nuts first.

Finally, Marty tells me about what a miss and sounds like I missed a great game night with Skyrise. Roxley has had some solid games lately and this just adds to the collection. Hope I will get to see it on the table soon.

Thanks for listening

Episode 298 – Rebirth, Pendragon, Mythic Mischief

18. Juni 2024 um 02:30

Conor, Def, and Joe jostle jovially about their latest gaming escapades.

First up, Joe regales us with his rendezvous in the realm of Rebirth, Reiner Knizia’s latest offering which is still taking late pledges on Kickstarter. Def delves into the daring deeds of Pendragon, brace yourselves for battles, betrayals, and bountiful banter as he recounts his quest for the coveted crown, and Conor casts his comedic contortions on Mythic Mischief, a game that is very chess like, or is it cheff like? So, settle in, my merry gamers, and let the playful puns flow freely! It's sure to be another rollicking romp through the realm of tabletop tomfoolery.


All that, plus the Question of the Pod, Swear An Oath, and the usual shenanigans you've come to expect from the Board Game BBQ.

 

We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: What’s your favourite convention game?

Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared their experiences with us on Discord and the Facebook Community.

 

And as always, we Swear an Oath.

 

Question of the Pod: What’s your preferred way of learning a board game?

Leviathan Wilds, Through the Desert (Bazaar), Spectral

17. Juni 2024 um 18:00
Hello boardgamers and boardgamees, how are your MEEPLES? Do they need feeding? Watering? Some TLC? Or do they just need a good dose of the Talk Cardboard podcast to refresh that wooden noggin? Well worry not young meeple trainer, we’ve got a new episode digitally bumbling its way to you right now. A real smorgasboard of delights this week as we take a look at three very different games to suit very different needs. Spectral is a strange melange of deduction and Keyflower style bidding? Does that even work? Does it make sense? Is Ryan Courtney the only designer that can pull this off? Talking of designers that can pull things off, how about none other than Reiner Knizia himself, who, believe it or not, designed another game. Except he designed this one quite a long time ago and also made a very fresh expansion for it right now. Through the Desert is a mean mean classic and Bazaar is a mixed bag of modules to add some zest. And finally, a board game based on a beloved video game (unofficially) that doesn’t just work but maybe even surpases its insipiration? Leviathan Wilds is the tabletop version of Shadows of the Colossus and there are moments when it towers above it.
