Davey returns all alive and well to complete his run of episodes as "First Player" to talk about one of his favourite genres in boardgaming "Dungeon Crawlers".
FIRST PLAYER: Davey
OTHER PLAYERS: Rob & Chris (New Player)
OVERVIEW
Davey is joined by Rob and a new player to the podcast Chris (no not Kris with the K but Chris with the C), to chat through their experiences with dungeon crawler co-op games and why they love them so much. In this episode you'll learn:
- All about our new player to the pod "Chris" and how he relishes co-op games and the occasional turn at being evil
- Rob is pushing Carrooka onto everyone he sees and now his mum has taken over the board
- Davey provides the shortest description of Anno 1800
- about the differences in the Descent (Journeys & Legend)
- how the group have experienced a range of dungeon crawlers but there's still a lot left to try
- about "coffeegate" and "pizzagate" when we mix food / drink with board games
- and finally who will be taking over as the next "first player" for Episodes 13-16
