OVERVIEW In this weeks episode, Rob steps down as first player in his final run to talk all about dexterity games and why they are so accessible for everyone. Also Rob runs us through the groups particular favourites.

After much popular demand, we present to you the much-anticipated return of Masterpiece Theatre. Our esteemed patron--who is utterly unaware of our existence, such is his focus on his twin demesnes of fastness and furiousness--deserves no less.

We would cherish so much as a grunt! Or a cease and desist!
