Keeping it Zen-like with a Rolife Book Nook Shelf Insert, staying focused in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, nodding along gently to Hi-Fi RUSH, relaxing with Thorolf with Catan: The Helpers, and running around terrified fighting for our lives against the gibbering zombie horde with Resident Evil 3: The Board Game.

Airecon was absolutely amazing, and we have many gifts we’ve brought back for you, including Nidhoggr Mead, uh, mead, and Honey Badger Games tea, accessible character sheets and Roll Table for 2 from Fights and Fancy, and the short, strategic, simple, and sneaky Ominoes from YAY Games. But that’s not it, oh no! There’s also jumping aboard the space bus and tearing through the universe in Wormholes from AEG, and deducing the machinations of a mastermind in Tragedy Looper: New Tragedies from WizKids

Over on Netflix, Wednesday is straight out of the mind of Tim Burton and some of the team behind Smallville and it’s great, Gavin Inglis and Glen Rahman’s Alone Against the Frost from Chaosium is well-written, super challenging solo roleplaying for Call of Cthulhu, Resident Evil 2: The Board Game from Steamforged Games is an ace adaptation of a classic video game onto the tabletop, and Paperback Adventures from Fowers Games is moreish wordy fun. 00:00 - #LJJ and “Spa Talk” 12:12 - Alone Against the

2023/03/01

Ghibli-esque slice of life Shin chan: Me and the Professor on Summer Vacation The Endless Seven-Day Journey is Millennium Kitchen’s nostalgic return to Boku no Natsuyasumi, and Mada is all about discovering the hidden game within just as much as it’s about hand management, risk taking, and prickly pears. Kids go hunting for ghosts in Joe Cornish’s very bingeable Lockwood & Co. that has sharply-written dialogue throughout its eight episodes of creepy horror, and we’re off to Airecon and have some

2023/02/15

Our Flag Means Death is a romantic comedy (with emphasis on the romance) of pirates and gentlemanliness, hot off our RRR kick we’ve fallen hard for Eega, and we have thoughts on modern horror Barbarian. We get investing in property with Rebuilding Seattle by WizKids, scope out just how much love has gone into Sniper Elite: The Board Game by Rebellion Unplugged - a hidden movement board game based on the video game - and Prospero Hall smashes it yet again with The Rocketeer: Fate of the Future from

The best board games to play remotely, how Back 4 Blood is a modern Left 4 Dead with deck building, we head to a Welsh village Chasing Static, you’ve got to love That Old Wallpaper’s strangely compelling theme, and The Decagon House Murders uses the howdunit format to great effect. Plus, a rich vein of stuff. 00:00 - A “job lot”. 06:06 - A question from our pal Ben Tucker: what are the best board games to play remotely? 16:35 - Back 4 Blood. 27:47 - Chasing Static. 39:52 - The Decagon House

Andor, Akropolis, and K3 - Ep166

The Staying In Podcast - four pals talk video games,... ·

2023/01/01

Andor is Disney+’s new Star Wars series and it’s a fantastic Brechtian political spy drama that doesn’t rely on lightsabers, K3 from Helvetiq is an abstract game that’s a cross of Chess, Connect 4, and programming, and Akropolis from Gigamic is a very quick tile laying boardgame we just love. Plus New Year’s resolutions and predictions for 2023 based on movies. 00:00 - What will 2023 bring? Let’s consult the movies! 03:52 - New Year’s Resolutions. 16:36 - K3 20:46 - Akropolis (also thanks to Play

The Bear, Immortality, and Coffee Talk - Ep164

The Staying In Podcast - four pals talk video games,... ·

2022/12/01

00:00 - Kris's birthday, celebrated not with a song, but a goldfish. 10:09 - Just to be clear, The Bear is not for kids; it’s an intense black comedy drama, shot on a small budget, all about the pressures of running a sandwich shop. 27:27 - Coffee Talk is from Toge Productions and has you brewing up hot beverages for fantasy creatures. It’s a pretty laid back visual novel, and it’s perfect for bedtime. 41:04 - Context is key, and sits at the heart of Immortality, an interactive movie (of sorts)

00:00 - True crime. 08:47 - Marvel Snap from Second Dinner and Nuverse doesn’t necessarily reinvent the genre’s mechanics, but what it does with card battlers, it does better (and faster) than pretty much all the others. 22:50 - A slower-paced, smaller-scale movie that’s ghoulish, perhaps even Shakespearean, The Banshees of Inisherin is a dark and funny and profound film you should go out of your way to watch. 36:44 - [Ad] Go check out our pals at Overtired. 37:57 - There’s nothing horrifying about

We explain why, even if you don’t care all that much about flying games, you need to invest some time in Bandai Namco’s latest entry in the series. 16:44 - Learning, adapting, and trying again is the order of the day in foxy isometric adventure Tunic from Tunic Team and Finji. Like Zelda? Like Heaven’s Vault? You need to play it. 26:41 - The mean, green Marvel machine rolls on with She-Hulk:

What a great event! 17:56 - We only get to speak about Quarto from Hachette for a little bit, but that’s fine because our feelings about it are simple: you should for sure play it. 19:20 - Osprey Games delivers the goods yet again with Village Rails.
