BGB Podcast #340 – All by Myself

07. August 2025 um 12:31

 

 

Are board games best played multiplayer? Who can say, but whether it’s because you can’t get people together at the appropriate time, or you’re just itching to play something on your lonesome, there’s a burgeoning scene of solo games out there waiting to be played, and we’re going to talk about them. Well, some of us are, anyway. Before we go it alone, we talk about Hunted: Kobayashi Tower, Corps of Discovery, and Senji.
