In Chris' second episode of his run he wants to know why we suck at board games, well when we say we we mean us specifically as we can't comment on general gamers.  Do we abandon games we suck at? Do we stick with it in the vain hope we'll become better? Listen to our latest episode to find out.

FIRST PLAYER: Chris
OTHER PLAYERS: Adrian, Rob & Dan

In this episode you'll learn:
- what the hell desk cycling means and why Chris has been doing a lot of it? no it's not a board game
- about Rob's experience of managing stealthy robots in Burncycle by Chip Theory Games
- how Dan has gone back to the 90's in the retro-like point and click adventure of Cantaloop by Lookout Games
- that White Castle by Devir Games keeps getting mentioned and a lot of love from Adrian
- which games the gang ultimately suck at and why
