The Ascent of Board Games

Episode 51 - Looking Forward to 2023


Listen Later

Happy New Year! Last month, we took a look back at our favorite gaming things from 2022; this month, we're talking about some of the games we're looking forward to in 2023. Contents include, but are not limited to:

  • Jayson sounds very, very sad post-sinus surgery (but he's doing fine now, promise). Donations of giant mecha or plastic miniatures should be sent to Jayson. Donations of cash should be sent to the podcast.
  • Brian has some serious questions for past Brian.
  • We explore the value of self-examination in anime combat.
  • Mike is egregiously behind on his essential videogaming requirements.
  • Joe teaches us about the Russian fox experiment; Mike has objections.
  • Frank names his "best computer game ever made;" Brian has objections.
  • Jodorowsky's TRON?!?
  • As always, we'd love it if you took the time to write us an iTunes review, as it really helps us find new listeners We'd also love to have you visit our website (although Podbean has made some recent changes to it that mean some stuff isn't in the right place at the moment) and let us know what kinds of games we should discuss next. You're also more than welcome to comment on the episode page, or our Facebook page, or tag @ascentofgames on Twitter as long as Twitter still exists. Whatever way you prefer to share your opinions with us, we'd love to hear them.  As always, we appreciate your listening - stay safe out there!
