Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider

Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content

In this jam-packed episode of tabletop gaming chat, we have a few miniature painting brags to get out of the way before we delve into four in-depth board game reviews (sorry if you were hoping for some DIY or BBQ tips in this episode).

The dice-drafting, area control game, Castellans gets the Polyhedron Collider treatment, before Steve and Rory wax lyrical about the two-player cooperative game, the Spiel des Jahres game of the year winner Sky Team. We then explore and map new islands in Maps of Misterra, before sailing the high seas in search of booty in Port Royal: The Dice Game.

Finally, we delve into the mailbag to talk about AI in board games, and our biggest gaming surprise of the year.
