In Episode 304 we give our hot take review on Emberleaf covering the mechanisms, the production, and our overall feelings of the game.

We discuss a poll on anthropomorphic animals in board games and also discuss some games that have been on our tables including Dune: War for Arrakis and Blueprints and Chris discusses his excitement about finally receiving (after 8 years) his crowdfunded Dawn of Madness.
