On this episode Steve, Sarah and Mitch are joined by the one and only David Tuczi. David talks about the origins of the upcoming Voidfall, how he approaches designing solo mode for other people's games, his friendships in the industry, and some of his most proudest achievements in game design so far (and if you thought Adrian can talk, wait until you hear David!) It's a fascinating interview, with insights into all kinds of games, and one you don't want to miss.
In our Sizzling Games segment Sarah has been using her deductive powers in her Search For Planet X, Mitch has been assuming the role of Dungeon Master in our very own Dungeons & Dragons Adventure, and Steve has been stacking humans in Castell.
In the Bracket Battle 2.0 poor David has his loyalties divided as we announce the winner of Kanban EV vs Anachrony.

Finally, in Swear An Oath Steve has cleaned the decks and completed both of his oaths: Dinosaur World and the scenarios in Smartphone Inc, Mitch completed two cases of Chronicles of Crime: 2400 with Dan, and Sarah has continues on her miniature painting journey. New oaths this week are Alice is Missing (Steve), Fantastic Factories (Mitch), and Arkwright: The Card Game (Sarah). And David even jumps in on the Oath action by prominsing to play Gran Austria Hotel, Great Wall and Bitoku by the time he comes back on the show! (We are going to hold you to that, David!!)

Surprise! Have you ever played a game that pleasantly surprised you? On this episode Steve, Def and Mike discuss games that they like but don't necessarily fit their normal game style. Do you have any games in your collection that stand out from the rest?
In our Sizzling Games segment Def has revisited Architects of the West Kingdom with four and five players and has even been exploring the asymmetric player powers. Mike has two games to Sizzle: Dinosaur Island Rawr'n'Write, and Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition and is in love with both. Steve finally got Whistle Mountain to his gaming group and loved the "Tetris on top of each other" fun.
In the Bracket Battle 2.0 we check in on the current battle: Anachrony vs Kanban EV. We then dip into the mail bag for The Roast. Steve shares his "enlist or die" strategy when playing the Crimean faction in Scythe, Mike tells us about his longest ever game of Zombiecide, and Def counts on one hand the games he can beat his wife in. We also discuss our favourite meats to BBQ, hardest games to learn, and game mechanics we could do without.

Episode 144: Special Guest - Kim Brebach from Good Games Publishing, My Little Scythe, Cascadia, Land vs Sea
On this episode Sarah, Jules and Adrian are joined by Kim Brebach from Good Games Publishing. He talks about his journey into game design, his mission to find games that have incredible depth, and his development approach to playtesting new games.
In our Sizzling Games segment Adrian has been enjoying My Little Scythe with his family, Kim has discovered the joy of Cascadia, and both Jules and Sarah have been carefully placing (and stealing) tiles in Land vs Sea.
In the Bracket Battle 2.0 we announce the winner from last week's Blood Rage vs City of the Big Shoulders, and then launch our next battle: Anachrony vs Kanban EV. Jules and Adrian go head to head in this battle, so we have to call in an expert to split the difference! Make sure you vote for your favourite on our socials to make sure it goes through to the next round.
Finally, in Swear An Oath Jules has started painting his Unsettled miniatures but is still determined to beat that last level. Meanwhile Sarah completed The Initiative and Adrian has the 2010 edition of Vinhos lined up. Kim joins in the action and swears to revisit Scythe to reassess his opinion, and Jules, Adrian and Sarah all swear to have a Paint Party!
