With Fall upon us, it's time to take a final stroll through our garden - our Cottage Garden, that is, and this week the SnakesCast examines Uwe Rosenburg's latest game. Today, Wednesday October 11th 2017, we continue the discussion by talking about how you complete flower beds, and how points are scored - including some of the complexity involved, and how the visuals help to mitigate that.

Cottage Garden, Part 2 - Flower Pots, Cloches and More Cats!

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.
