Matt, Meehan, Liv and Maddie reconvene after two weeks of cons to chat about our time at MCM Comic Con London and UK Games Expo!

We’ve been escaping legally distinct xenomorphs in Nemesis: Lockdown, managing legally distinct football teams in football manager board game Eleven, playing legally distinct Jenga with pom-pom in The Fuzzies and, erm, making legally distinct monster noises in Wee Whimsical Creatures.

There’s also talk of miniatures game Turnip 28, anime improv party game Channel A, a bit more Crescent Moon and plenty of train scribbling in Railroad Ink.

Matt, Maddie and Meehan are here with a shorter podcast than usual, but stuffed to the brim with talk about all the board games we’ve played!

Is asymmetric strategy game Crescent Moon the next Root? Is Eric Lang’s mythic blockbuster Ankh: Gods of Egypt as good as Blood Rage and Rising Sun? Is Wayfarers of the South Tigris worth putting on your map? How does two-player gem Watergate hold up? Has Maddie finally managed to play noir superhero RPG City of Mist?

We answer all these questions, plus several more that nobody asked, then take a quick look at a seriously impressive fan-made The Last of Us board game and the latest tabletop RPG bundle supporting reproductive rights in the US.

(Post-show correction to Matt’s bad geography: The river Tigris is in Western Asia, not North Africa!)

We’ve been cracking crimes with Batman in new mystery game Everybody Lies, scrapping over treasure in wizard fight delight Frostgrave, playing more D&D, preparing to don the cape in superhero RPG City of Mist and getting our priorities in order in TikTok’s new favourite party game Priorities. That’s all before we take a look at the new board game studio focused on accessibility, the disappearance of two D&D books from D&D Beyond and highlight RPG bundles raising money for good causes. And in this week’s segment, we come up with our own recipes for the upcoming Catan and Ticket to Ride official cookbooks, as well as inventing dishes based on other tabletop classics!

Matt, Maddie and Meehan overcome some initial tech hiccups to talk about our (brief) time with Batman: Everybody Lies, amphibian adventures in D&D 5E’s Wild Beyond the Witchlight and the team’s ongoing love of wizard-fightin’ miniatures gem Frostgrave.

There’s also time to debate the pronunciation of Banana-grams/Ban-anagrams, revisit the joy of Rhino Hero and wonder why there aren’t more board games with numbered sequels.

We check in with the new Blade Runner RPG, a Pokemon Point Salad (starring the most delicious pocket monster) and a slew of ‘80s action movies you can soon play in D&D 5E.

That’s all before we celebrate May the 4th with our take on which Star Wars characters deserve a place in our next RPG campaigns.
