NTBoardGames presents...

CJ and Adam both have a good collection of board games among themselves. But there comes a time when you realize you have too many board games and have to lighten the load. How do you decide what stays and what goes? This is something they are looking to tackle in this new episode.

Adam and CJ take another stab at recording the topic of narratives in board games; joining them is a guest, Ruth. Three types of narrative are brought up and discussed.

This is same topic that was originally intended for episode seven but was lost due to technical issues. The same issue has appeared but not as bad; forgive the quality for the sake of good discussion.

Adam and CJ are back to discuss a topic very important, reviews. What is a review? What are we actually watching and reading? If there is money floating around, is it coming from the right or wrong place? Who do you trust? All this and more in the exciting review episode!

*This was the second try at recording it since batteries died on us the first time this was attempted

Adam and CJ sit down with a friend after Origins to talk about the game fair. Hear some stories and experiences with some of the games that were played/demoed/shown off. There was a lot of cover and we only scratched the surface!

Adam and CJ are joined by special guest Walter Barber from Greenbrier Games. Learn about how he got picked up by the company, his insights in the industry of board games and thoughts on matters in the hobby today.

Back to talking about components! This time Adam wants to share his thoughts on pricing of certain games while CJ is curious about a potentially less important aspect of board games, the insert. Do you have any thoughts on pricing and inserts of board games?

Board Games are a very social hobby so Adam & CJ discuss board game groups. Where do/should you look to find a group? What are vital parts of a good group?

Also, what about digital games? These are briefly touched upon and what type of games are not conveyed properly in digital form.

Adam and CJ are joined by Shane to talk about the game he helped design, Ameritocracy. Currently on Kickstarter, hear about the game, some of the the insight behind it, and the process of running a Kickstarter.

As teased from the previous episode, Adam & CJ are here to talk about Kickstarter games. They cover initial impressions to exclusives, reasons, and other aspects of the website that is not a store.

CJ and Adam dive into the topic of player count. Is there a best number? How many is too many? Are there ways to alleviate it? Join them on this discussion and feel free to let them know if they are missing a gaming that plays well with large numbers.
