It’s been a while since we’ve plumbed the depths of the bottomless chasm we call “fanmail”, so this week we’re reaching our hands as far as we can and pulling out some questions that have yet to see the light of say. Before we dig too greedily and too deep, we talk about Politrickers, Marvel Champions: The Card Game, and Banana Governance.

We had such fun collaboratively coming up with our definitive Top 50 list back in December, that we’ve decided to do it again. In the spirit of award season, we’re celebrating the games of yesteryear, or yester-ten-years to be precise. It’s the definitive best games of 2016, as decided cooperatively by us! Before we come together, we talk about Shady Lady, In the Shadows: Resistance in France 1943 – 1944, and Duel for Cardia.

Oh man, oh man, it’s time that we ask you (yes, you) to tell us (yes, us) what your favourite games are, because for one time a year, it doesn’t matter what we think about games, but you better be ready to tell us what you think about games. A lot of you did, so here it is, the listener top 20! Before we ask you to do all the work, we talk about Emberheart, Gods & Mortals, and Feya’s Swamp.

All of this has happened before and will happen again. Everything comes back around, including games you could swear you’ve played before. Whether they’re remakes, reimplimentations, or rejuvenations, we’re tackling the world of board game revivals. Before what’s old is new, we talk about Agent Avenue,7 Empires, and Stellar Ventures.
