Welcome back to Board With Video Games, covering all the things you play on your table and your television!

This week Josh and Kyle cover the board games they have been playing (Smash Up and Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective) as well as the video games they have been sinking hours into (For Honor and Shadow of the Colossus). For the board game topic, the duo discusses Asmodee continuing to acquire board game publishers (this time Mayfair and Lookout) and what it might mean for the industry. For the video game topic, they jump into "free weekends" and whether they are an effective way to stir interest for a game.
