We offer our thoughts on building your own home game library this week on the SnakesCast, from the gateway and accessible games to the deep and complex ones. Today, Monday May 7th 2018, we begin by looking at the games you might consider for your first purchases - or games you might add to a collection to appeal to people who are new to the hobby.

Building Your Home Collection, Part 1 - Where to start

The world of tabletop games is a lot bigger than most people realize. In fact it's so big that the idea of investigating it can actually be kind of intimidating. When you see all those games you've never heard of, with rules and concepts and themes you've never seen before in a game, it's hard to know where to start.
The answer is: start with the SnakesCast. Every week, we'll bring you ten or fifteen minutes' worth of banter about what makes these games worth playing. With a different theme every episode and a rotating cast of both gurus and non-gurus from Toronto's premiere boardgame café, we'll show you just how much there is to play with out there.
