TGT On Topic 292: Top 10 BGA Games Jun 28, 2022

Show notes

This week we accept our addiction to Board Game Arena (.com) and look at the top games on the site. First we look at them as rated by Board Game Geek, and then we look at them by what's being played on BGA itself. And we throw in a few that didn't make either of those lists that we really like. We promise - we're not sponsored by BGA, but we probably should be...

TGT On Topic 291: Player Count Jun 21, 2022

Show notes

This week we take a closer look at how the number of players effects the overall enjoyment of a game. Should all games strive for max player count, or should we avoid the max whenever possible? Is 2-4 players a myth? How do games attempt to adjust for different player counts? And will we ever stop talking about BGA?
