Meeple, Myself, and I

Well, we're back to an old saw here: a few more Roll and Writes, because I just can't stay away from these ding dang games.

Should I have made it more clear that I'm eschewing an old format from episodes two years ago? Does the beginning of this episode even make sense? Is the description section of a file that I'm uploading the appropriate place to sort all these things out?

TUNE IN TO GET NONE OF THESE ANSWERS AND MORE

Today, I'm taking a look at two solo-able card-driven games by a very interesting publisher (Fort Circle Games): Votes for Women and The Shores of Tripoli.

I feel like I should have explained that I play The Marines' Hymn because it says "The Shores of Tripoli" in that song. I... didn't say that, because I'm not a smart person.

Three games this week - all solo, all in the same publishing "series": Proving Grounds, Warp's Edge, and Wreckland Run.

Please, oh please, check out the Patreon if you have a moment. Or leave a review on iTunes. Both of those things help grow the show!

A look at...

• 1862, a solo-capable 18xx game
• 1837, a multiplayer-only 18xx game

My Patrons keep the show going. Thanks to them, and thanks to you for considering any support that might work for you.

A move, a new job, and paying tribute to what's left behind. Welcome to Season 2 of Meeple, Myself, and I.

Games: Resist! and Legacy of Yu.

There are three colons in the name of this episode! That is probably too many.

...

Uh. So.

Twilight Struggle is one of my very favorite all-time competitive games. It will never leave my collection, ever.

So how does a shorter version of Twilight Struggle, WITH A SOLO MODE, stack up?

I mean... I'm not gonna tell you here. You gotta listen to me ramble for 20 minutes to find out!

This is a hectic one, folks: I take exactly ten minutes to play and review (at the same time) the new game Fuse: Countdown, which is a real-time game that you play in exactly ten minutes!

If you want to know what I sound like stressed and unscripted, this is the episode for you!

A quick review of a quick game. It's REALLY good. (The game. The review... eh.)

I mean... the title pretty much says it all.

See you all next year!

A love letter for games and the family that taught me to love them.
