Mark's enthusiasm for Dungeon Scrawlers is telling. Whereas most children enjoy mazes, drawing, or even colouring, Mark instead as a child enjoyed the programmatic, deterministic mundanity of connect-the-dots. Straight(ish) lines and ascending natural numbers only, please.

We're veering into the dark roads of board game classification, but this time with a goal in mind - how to best highlight games that feature strong interaction. Shouldn't BoardGameGeek have a scale for that somewhere? And while we're at it, BGG ... Before we put our thoughts in the suggestion box, we talk about Guatemala Café, and Ride the Rails.
Timecodes:
01:56 - Guatemala Café 12:43 - Ride the Rails 23:09 - Quantifying interactivity 25:43 - A Feast for Odin 32:13 - Yucatan 34:31 - What else should be on a BGG page? 37:15 - Stationfall 44:20 - Biblios

In this episode a shortage of available hosts sees Sarah and Def head once more unto the breach without any support from a 3rd host. They do so however with aplomb as they take us on a journey through Age of Steam, Frosthaven, Hegemony and Mists Over Carcassonne to name just a few of the games they discussed, but would you say any of these game designs are timeless?
We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: Which childhood cartoon would you like to see as a Board Game?
Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared their experiences with us on Discord and the Facebook Community.
And as always, we Swear An Oath.
Question of the Pod: What game do you think is a timeless design and why?
Sizzling Games: Hegemony (30:13), Mists Over Carcassonne (54:15)
