Shelley and I get another cute little Japanese game to the table, this one a quick tile-laying super-fillerwith some nice action choices. Then, we try out a 7 Wonders-esque card-based tech-tree game with some interesting ideas, but not nearly as streamlined as the former.

King of Frontier by Shun from Studio GG

Progress: Evolution of Technology by Agnieszka Kopera and Andrei Novac from NSKN Games

Mark Jackson and Mard Batty join me for an in-depth discusison of Ticket to Ride. These Roundtables petered out as time constraints and tech issues made setting them up difficult, but I think the Meeplefest episodes reflect some of what these try to do.

Ric joins me for a discussion of games of the moment (in 2006), along with some talk about game stores past & present.
