  • OA 28: Botany and Dusty Droz

    After the first unboxing, Botany by Dux Somnium Games has been a mainstay on our table top for the last month and a half. Blown away by the easy of gameplay and the sneaky strategy that kept us coming back for more, we thought it was time to talk to talk to half of the design design team, Dusty Droz, about it.

  • OA 26: Daybreak

    A universal problem, and tabletop investigation.

    We weren't sure what to expect with CMYK Games release "Daybreak" -- box art and description were intriguing, but we were not prepared for it at all.

    An amazing mix of education and gaming, this cooperative experience had us cheering for our success and fearing the consequences of our failures each time we played.

    Why? Well, come check the episode out and see.
