Play Better Games Dammit - Helping to improve public play game nights.
We’ve got some suggestions and game recommendations for a fan who went to a public play event and was very disappointed in the game selection. After that we review Galaxy Trucker and wrap up with a week in review featuring first thoughts on Lost Ruins of Arnak and Star Wars Unlock, plus more thoughts on Disney Sidekicks and Quezzle and a classic party game hits the table again.
Episode 159, recorded January 5th, 2021. Join us Wednesdays at Nine PM Eastern at https://www.twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop
