Davey returns for another episode but this time we have a general chat about theme in board games, what we like, what we feel there isn't enough of and also what we would change to make some games more appealing

FIRST PLAYER: Davey
OTHER PLAYERS: JP, Becky & Kerley

OVERVIEW
In this episode you'll learn:
- all about JP's experiences in Chip Theory Games newest game Wroth, an area control game for people who don't like area control games
- that Davey brings his Oodie whilst playing Mythwind by Open Owl Studios
- about Unfringed's latest game coming to Gamefound Molehill Meadows and Beckys experiences with the game
- that Kerley still winds up JP by calling tricks as spells in Trickerion's big expansion Dalhgaards Academy by Mindclash Games
- that due to a bumper "Let's Talk About Hex" segment there isn't a "Would You Rather" this time but it will return next time
- about the groups preferences on themes and what they would like to see more of in the hobby
