In this episode, Tom takes a look at games Eric has already played, and Eric delves a bit more into Escape Room games. Geoff talks about exponents, and we end the show talking about our favorite games that start with the letter "N". Finally, we have a very special interview with Jen, who talks about grief, Kickstarter shipments, and more!
Isolation gaming continues, so we turn our lonely eyes to gaming alone--an endeavour that predates plague-induced solitude, but is certainly thriving now. Many a gamer is experimenting with those (increasingly frequent) variants for the first time. We understand--any port in a storm. Let us game alone together.
