Board Game Gateway

Welcome to Part 3 of our Blood on the Clocktower Deep Dive Series. Following our Intro to Trouble Brewing and Interview with the game designer Stephen Medway, we now bring you the Deep Dive into the 2nd script 'Sects & Violets'.

We welcome special guest Avery, who is a following BotC storyteller and friend of the podcast. They will help Neeber and Ralph look into all the interesting roles we have in this game as well as regaling us with stories we have experienced in previous games.

This week Damien, Neeber and Ralph are back behind the microphones to talk about some of the games they have been excited about.

Ralph has gotten the Digital turned analog Rogue-like card game Slay the Spire, Damien has decided to jump into the analog version of a digital-themed world in Android Netrunner and Neeber finally got his chance to play another wine-themed game in the classic Vinhos.

There is a lot to discuss including why Paku Paku is one of the silliest games we've played and why we love it so lets get into this episode.

Neeber and Damien sit down to have a chat about some of the games that he got on his recent trip overseas. Some of the games that he has been able to get a hold of are super hard to get here in Australia and they happen to have so many good things about them.

Neeber has also finally had a chance to play Arkham Horror the Living Card Game. He takes us through his play and his first impressions of the Lovecraftian mystery he was a part of.

He also got a chance to play the prologue of Earthborne Rangers and it is super impressive, we can't wait to share our impressions.
