In this agnostic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, our three intrepid explorers at the UKGE blast through multiple odd games in a chaotic pod-special! We Rob Art in Art Robbery, Get On Board in Get On Board and Island Small...ly... in Small Islands, before dreaming of factories in Nicodemus. This podcast also posits a very, very important question… did we play Cosmic Frog?
Have a great weekend, everybody!

While we tend to enjoy games across the whole spectrum, there's something particular about sinking your teeth into a really heavy game. But it's not always an easy prospect; conditions have to be just right. So what makes a heavy game worth it? Before things get heavy, we talk about Barony, Bausack, Whitehall Mystery, and Dead Reckoning.

It's full steam ahead as Mitch stokes the fires and tries to keep Episode 194 on track, which isn't easy with Def and Adrian on board as well.
The lads discuss games based on other intellectual properties, the ongoing fascination of trains in boardgames, and revisiting a classic.
In the Board Game Bracket we settle the last match-up, Targi vs Anachrony, before we cue up the next battle: Quacks of Quedlinburg vs Too Many Bones. To make sure your favourite goes through to the next round make sure you vote on our socials.
Finally, in Swear An Oath, Mitch and Def both played more burncycle, Def also played Andean Abyss with Mitch and Conor, while Adrian still hasn't erased the errors of his butchered phoenix mini. New oaths include On Mars: Alien Invasion (Def), Pandemic: Reign of Cthulu (Mitch), and a solo playthrough of The Trancontinental (Adrian).

Live and happening, it's a podcast! When I edit podcasts, I usually slice out the bits where I sound silly, or ask if it's 'time to talk about Rats' too many times; but in the live format, they have to stay. On this very special episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Matt and his two adult children are talking about a bunch of games! We've got the absolute excess of Wonderlands War, the snakes-and-ladders-worker-placement of First Rat and the secret sneaky bidding of Dreadful Circus alongside plenty of healthy chat about a Wibbly Wobbly Egg. Enjoy!
