Mitä Pelataan? - Agemonia. (What's being played? Agemonia)

Disclaimer:

This is not an ad or a paid piece, these are my honest opinions, but that should go without stating. Agemonia is currently in its first 24 hours in Kickstarter as it launched 7th September 2021. I hope you'll get some information from here to help your decision making process. Links related to Agemonia are at the end of description, followed by timestamps.

Background and description:

After talking with the designer, Max Wikström, he offered me to try the tutorials in Tabletop Simulator in the late 2020. I asked a friend to join, so we played the first (Flooded Inn) and second (Road to Runedale) tutorials available on 3rd of December. Max taught us the game and was a 3rd dummy player. I played as Torrax, Pekka Lunara, and Max Venia. We waited to continue to the third (Secrets of the Ancients) tutorial and played it almost immediately it was ready, on 16th of April 2021. That we played two player with Pekka and Max was just running the scenario and answering our questions. We continued from where we left 4 months earlier. Now 5 months later, I share my opinions on the game as I recall it.

I do not go through rules or details, but focus on my experiences, opinions, and feel of the game with this delayed review. This is the first time I try doing a (delayed) review as a podcast-format, so feedback would be appreciated as I am thinking if this is a good way going forward. Thank you for your feedback, and Thanks for listening!

(Music/ambience in the episode is recorded from the Agemonia App, with Max's permission)

The topic of the list has been chosen by the guest and we will have a “battle of the lists” after the episode airs in my social media channels – you, dear listener, are encouraged to comment and vote on the lists to see which one of us did better.

The fifteenth Paragon in the series is the funny person who makes Things Get Dicey - Paula Deming!

The thirteenth Paragon in the series is the acting advocate of diversity in boardgames, Calvin Wong Tze Loon. Calvin is probably best know from his advocacy on many sensitive topics in Twitter (as Ithayla) and thus we talk about topics like unintentional racism, (cultural) representation and diversity in boardgames, colonialism, reviewing boardgames, acting, and noodles. He also discusses about his passions for writing and science fiction, which ties nicely to our Top 9 topic this time: Sci-Fi Games!

Comments are welcome, hope you enjoy this bit and will be back for rest of the series. Voting for our Top9's will commence some time after this episode drops.

Top9 starts at about 48:20 and the topic is Top 9 Sci-Fi Games!

This episode is recorded 6th of February 2021.

The twelfth Paragon in the series is Jeremy Holmes. He's the Green Peg, the voice of reason of old in the Blue Peg Pink Peg podcast. Currently? I'm not so sure! We talk about taking a break, building and construction, wedding, teenagers, school, and discuss the favourite topic for Finns: weather and climate for a while. We also wonder if apocalypse is on us and if the end is nigh.

To suit these topics and the current (now past) year, we give your our top 9 Games with Horror/Tension!

We recorded this episode before christmas of 2020 so this has been waiting for a while, apologies to Jeremy and his fans for the wait!

Comments are welcome, hope you enjoy this bit and will be back for rest of the series. Voting for our Top9's will commence some time after this episode drops.

Top9 starts at about 58:50

The First Paragon of the second set, and eleventh overall is the director, videographer, and editor of the welcoming boardgame channel Our Family Plays Games - Grant Fitch! Him being a teenager himself, we ponder on how to get more teenagers interested in tabletop games, experiences on distance and hybrid learning as well as some online gaming (I still need to play a game with his father!). Grant also expresses his interest in building a career on his current hobby with the channel, so reach out to him if his offer is still valid! We end the episode by listing our Top9 Games That Utilize Dice and we take their suitability for youngsters and teenagers into consideration in our discussion.

Comments are welcome, hope you enjoy this bit and will be back for rest of the series. Voting for our Top9's will commence some time after this episode drops.

Mitä Pelataan? -podcastin JBG Extra, jossa aiheena on vuosi 2020.

Kokoonnuimme vuodenvaihtessa pohtimaan vuotta 2020 samalla porukalla, joka oli mukana edellisellä kerralla kevään 2020 Korona extrassa. Mukana jaksossa on siis lisäkseni JBG:n pj Markus, Hukkareissun Hannu ja Oranssioranki Niko. Käymme läpi vuoden 2020 kuulumiset ja keskustelemme pelatuista verkkopeleistä. Keskustelemme myös vuoden 2020 peli- tai muita harrastukseen liittyviä haasteita sekä mietimme tätä myös vuoden 2021 osalta. Näiden lisäksi sivuamme toki myös muita lautapelaamiseen ja muutenkin elämään liittyviä aiheita.

Tämän jälkeen draftaamme Parhaat Vuonna 2020 ensimmäistä kertaa pelatut pelit. Valitsemme siis yhden vuorollamme ja käytössä on käärmedrafti (1,2,3,4,4,3,2,1,1,2...). Samaa peliä ei siis saa muiden kanssa valita. Jokainen meistä valitsee neljä peliä ja listat menevät äänestettäväksi Instagramiin - katsotaan kuka voittaa! Tai saa ylipäätään kommentteja.

Mitä Pelataan? -podcastin jakso lautapeleistä harrastuksena. Jakso on nauhoitettu kahdessa osassa, 14.12.2020 ja 15.12.2020.

Jakson aluksi kerron kilpailujen voittajat. Ensiksi kesäisen lautapelikuvakilpailun, jonka palkintona on Azul: Summer Pavillion ja sen jälkeen kuuntelijoiden lähettämien Top9-listojen kisan. Onnittelut voittajalle ja kaikille osallistuneille!

Kilpailujen tulosten jälkeen kerron mitä Lautapelifanaatikot-ryhmässä oltiin mieltä lautapelien pelaamisesta ja harrastuksesta, jonka jälkeen kerron mitä lautapelaaminen minulle on. Jatkan aiheesta kertomalla mistä löydät harrastuksesta lisää tietoa halutessasi ja mitä työkaluja ja alustoja itse käytän ja millaisia ne mielestäni ovat.

Kiitos kun kuuntelit! Pitäkää yhteyttä!
