This week on the SnakesCast, we are putting the focus on the game Isle of Skye - a light strategy game that provides lots of food for thought! Today, Monday March 6th 2017, Emilie and David discuss the initial concepts of the game, and give a very quick overview of gameplay and the surrounding decisions.

Isle of Skye, Part 1 - An introduction to the game

The world of tabletop games is a lot bigger than most people realize. In fact it's so big that the idea of investigating it can actually be kind of intimidating. When you see all those games you've never heard of, with rules and concepts and themes you've never seen before in a game, it's hard to know where to start.
The answer is: start with the SnakesCast. Every week, we'll bring you ten or fifteen minutes' worth of banter about what makes these games worth playing. With a different theme every episode and a rotating cast of both gurus and non-gurus from Toronto's premiere boardgame café, we'll show you just how much there is to play with out there.
