024 - Return to Dark Tower

025 - Eight Game Mini-Reviews

Eight mini-reviews for various games picked at "random" by my daughter. Some of these may develop into fuller reviews sometime, but we'll have to see.

024 - Return to Dark Tower

Review and discussion of the game "Return to Dark Tower," designed by Rob Daviau, Isaac Childres, Noah Cohen, Justin D. Jacobsen, and Brian Neff, and published by Restoration Games. This is an app-driven adventure game where you control one or more heroes to build up the power necessary to draw out and defeat an evil adversary, all while interacting with the effects of the Dark Tower sitting in the middle of the game board, and trying to stave off the adversary's corruption across the land and within yourself.

023 - Cities of Venus: Lost Contact

Review and discussion of the game "Cities of Venus: Lost Contact", designed by James and Adam Staley and published by Tin Robot Games. This is a resource management and engine building game where you are trying to improve your city, floating high in the atmosphere of the planet Venus, ultimately trying to accomplish the requirements of various missions in order to keep your city alive as contact with Earth has ceased.

022 - Tabletop Inc.

Review and discussion of the game "Tabletop, Inc", designed by Joseph and Madeleine Adams, and published by Cotswold Games. This game is a worker placement and resource management game, where you take on the role of a board game publisher, trying to develop award-winning games in order to beat the score set by an automated opponent.

021 - Runebound (2E and 3E)

Review and discussion of the 2nd and 3rd Editions of Runebound, published by Fantasy Flight Games. 2nd Edition was designed by Martin Wallace and Darrell Hardy; 3rd Edition was designed by Lukas Litzinger. Both editions are adventure games where you take the role of a hero trying to build up strength to ultimately complete a final challenge to save the land of Terrinoth from ruin and conquest. This podcast will discuss the similarities and differences between the two editions, as well as give my thoughts on whether either of them (which are both out of print) are worth tracking down to add to your collection.
