This week we're looking at the games that are instant buys, plays, dodges or burns on our list. What mechanic, designer, theme, or other element automatically puts a game in a category before we even get it to the table (fairly or not)? 

Before diving in, we talk about the Dice Tower Award winners, as well as the numbers from this year's Gen Con. 

Acquisition Disorders: Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere® RPG, Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle Earth

At the Table Reviews: 9 Card Trilogy (Orchard, Grove, Forage), Doomlings
