We're back again with more bloopers, expect the Only Fools & Horses expansion to BSG, Dan gets too personal with Tekken characters and Rob does unspeakable things to chicken (not really!!)
Are you "Team Buttons" or "Team Maximum Effort" when you first play a board game? We answer this question and dive into the topic on why some board gamers are happy to explore without consequence and why others punish themselves on getting a great first game experience.
FIRST PLAYER: JP OTHER PLAYERS: Dan, Adrian & Kerley
In this episode you'll learn: - whether Adrian combo'd any castles in Castle Combo by Catch Up Games - how Dan got on with his first play of Nucleum by Board & Dice - more about the "edge" as JP experiences his first play of Andromeda's Edge by Cardboard Alchemy - that Kerley is re-visting some of his favourites including Perseverance Episode 1 by Mindclash Games - our take on board gamers who fall into two categories as they approach new games, whether you just there to push buttons and pull levers not worries about the outcomes or punishing yourself for not having the perfect first game.
