Shelley and I check out both
Whale Riders (the board game) by Reiner Knizia from Grail Games
and its smaller cousin withmore of a publishing history
Whale Riders The Card Game by Reiner Knizia from Grail Games
In this show, Tom and Joe go back in time to 2005 and listen to our second episode, the only episode to have the show name "Panzers and Pieces". Join us as we talk about our top ten card games - well, at least what they were 16 years ago! This episode was originally recorded in May 2005, with commentary added May 2021.
In this frankly 142nd episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Ava and Tom have been left alone again, and proceed to gush for almost an entire hour about the hottest hotgame right now: Oath! They shouldn’t let us get away with this stuff.
I can only promise that we do get to ‘how to play’ in this podcast, but it made sense for us to get whimsical about the victory conditions first to frame the rest of the rules, because they’re quite special.
Have a great weekend, everybody!
As longstanding experts on being cute, we thought we'd finally bring both of our fields of expertise to bear on one topic.
