TGT 326: Why We Tire of Games Feb 28, 2023

Show notes

This week we talk about why games we once loved, we no longer play, nor even have interest in playing again. This happens to most all games for most all people. (yes most all) And you don't have to be cult of the new to experience this phenomenon. So we drill into why. After we deal with our discord issues...

TGT 324: De-Deluxifying Your Games (and TGT Con 2) Feb 14, 2023

Show notes

TGT Con is this weekend! There is still time to sign up: https://tabletop.events/conventions/tgt-con-2 This week Chris rants about games with too much stuff to make them playable. You know the kind, simple games with big boxes and tons of components that all need to be token out and setup only to be put back in their proper places after the game. Miniatures, cards, table space, miniatures, dice, playmats, so much, too much?

TGT 323: Is Marvel United Overrated? – fixed Feb 07, 2023

Show notes

This week Chris is making us talk about Marvel United. People seem to like it, but is that just because it's Marvel? Maybe it's over hyped? Or is there more there then appears from the outside. And this episode contains a significant first for someone...

TGT 322: Random Setups Jan 31, 2023

Show notes

This week we're talking about how random setups in games can have unexpected consequences along with adding replay-ability and variability to our games.

TGT 321: The Lighter Side of Gaming Jan 24, 2023

Show notes

This week Kitty is back, with some heavy news and a lighter topic. Don't worry it's all good stuff. We're talking about filler games! And why they tend to be dismissed within the hobby as something you don't build a game night around. But maybe we should give them a chance at the spotlight? Or not. For when it matters, Kitty won and she liked it. It'll make sense at the end.
