We follow on with general isolation and board gaming chit chat so that you know which online gaming is best! And then, oh and then, we have a little competition too. Do you want free games? We’ll make sure you listen all the way to the end!!

Thanks as always to LFG Australia, and gaming high fives to everybody!

It is not your usual episode …

Garth recently chatted with our gaming buddy (and ABC Radio presenter) Joel, with some boardgame -related ideas for passing the self-isolation time, so we thought we’d let you listen to that.But first we have some explaining to do, and we’ll do that in the episode.

With thanks as usual to LFG Australia, our generous sponsors.

We made it!

The 300th Episode is here, and to celebrate this milestone, all three Dice Men run down their Top 10 Games for the period that the show has been running, 2013-2020.

We also have a heap of audio clips from designers, artists, publishers and listeners, just for funzies.Thanks for your patience, your support, your best wishes and your affection, from all three of us. Stay safe and well, everyone of you.Thanks also to LFG Australia for their on-going sponsorship. Enjoy!

Hello!, no wait…we mean Iello! That’s right, tonight’s episode is a one publisher extravaganza as we feature four games from French publisher, Iello.

First it’s goblins being flung, then wires being snipped, before finishing up with codes being broken … but that’s not all …

Yes, we announce our BorderCon competition! We have the last 2 tickets on earth for this amazing event, so make sure you listen until the very end.

Of course, thanks again to our loving sponsor LFG Australia.

300 is so close now we can taste it! However until then, there are still games to play and dollars to spend.With Garth away this week, Leon introduces us to a game only he can, in Court of the Dead: Mourners Call, which has more skulls than a European Bone Church (google it).Then Mark discusses some (but not all, because there’s just too many) of the latest Kickstarter campaigns, including Ludocherry and Hyper Vyper game mats.Finally, we launch our new BorderCon competition, where we have the only 2 tickets left in existence, that you can win!!All this and so much more, courtesy of our kind sponsor LFG Australia.

Don’t even ask!

In a night of murder, gumshoes, whack jobs and snitches, we take a close look at two great crime thriller games, in Detective: City of Angels, and Paranormal Detectives. We’ll tell you all you need to know, see? We’ll give you the low down, see? Your choice couldn’t be easier, see?

After that, we’ll give a quick recap of others in this genre, and give you our take on where they sit in relation to these two rookie entries.

Thanks as usual to our major sponsor, LFG Australia, as well as our two feature sponsors, Hyper Vyper Games and Ludocherry.

Have you ever wanted to be magnifico? Well tonight is your chance to reign supreme in Renaissance Italy, as Mark and Garth discuss CanCon favourite Lorenzo Il Magnifico!

Mark then reconnects his dial up modem to the internet and discovers the latest kickstarters hitting the virtual shopfront… maybe…

As always thanks to LFG Australia for their amazing and ongoing support!

We’ve got a special treat for you all this week!Leon was recently on ABC Radio Hobart, talking boardgames, and we’ve managed to get a copy of the audio, so we thought you’d like to hear his wise words for yourselves, while we take some extra time to prepare for our upcoming 300th episode.Thanks again to LFG for their amazing ongoing sponsorship. Enjoy!

He really enjoys it!
