This week we are making sure we use our resources as efficiently as we can in games featuring the mechanism of resource management. Today, Friday March 23rd 2018, we look at three games that take the mechanism of resource management, but use it in really interesting ways.

Resource Management Games, Part 3 - Games that think outside the box

The world of tabletop games is a lot bigger than most people realize. In fact it's so big that the idea of investigating it can actually be kind of intimidating. When you see all those games you've never heard of, with rules and concepts and themes you've never seen before in a game, it's hard to know where to start.
The answer is: start with the SnakesCast. Every week, we'll bring you ten or fifteen minutes' worth of banter about what makes these games worth playing. With a different theme every episode and a rotating cast of both gurus and non-gurus from Toronto's premiere boardgame café, we'll show you just how much there is to play with out there.
