Warning: this episode uses a lot of generalisations and specifcially the words 'generally' and 'in general'. Listener discretion is advised.


We revisit our very first episode, 5 years on, to understand what a megagame actually is. Come with us on this journey of discovery as we explore enjoyable panic, solitaire megagames and, finally, the single, true definition of what a megagame is.


If you've never heard of megagames before, this is a really good place to begin!
