In Oros, ancient Greek for Mountain, you are playing as a demigod trying to teach your followers wisdom.  You accomplish this by using the followers to perform various actions.  Oros is a tile placement game where you don't draw the tiles, you create them.  You are shifting land masses into one another to create mountains so you can build on them.  Did we enjoy our time playing Oros?  OR were we disappointed with the chaos?  Listen and find out!  Thank you so much for listening?  Keep gaming!!

The brilliance of Mozart is undeniable.  Is the game themed around the effort of Constance Mozart, Wolfgang's wife, to have his stories told and his last work completed and performed also brilliant?  It is grand and beautiful like many of Mozart's opuses and can be complex at times like most of Mozart's works.  But is it brilliant........?  Well guess what you are gonna have to listen to find out what we think.  Did you really think I would spoil it for you? ;)  Thank you for listening as always!

I tried to come up a with a better title for this episode but everything I thought of was even longer than that lol.  Which is probably appropriate because this episode is a bit long but we discuss so many good games at two player count!  Spoiler alert!!!  We actually have 11 games in our lists, not to mention numerous honorable mentions ;)  Happy Holidays to everyone!  We hope you are spending your time with the ones you love and love to play games with!!  Thank you for the dl and listen.  Keep gaming!

Welcome to our 30th episode!  We are discussing Bitoku this time.  Bitoku is a 1-4 player deck construction/destruction, hand management, set collection, and dice worker placement game.  Wooo that was a lot of things, and tbh I left out a couple!  This game is gorgeous once you let it sink in a bit and has table presence to spare!  Have fun listening to Jamie struggle with remembering all the names for the various cards, tokens and bits :)  Most of all, listen in if this might be a game you are looking to find out more about :)  As always, we do appreciate all the dl's and comments that we receive.  Thanks for listening!

Well I am sure that episode title will not work well with the algorithms  ;)  It works for us though :)  This is the spiritual successor to our last podcast, Top 10 Heavy Games.  We had some games that didn't make our list because we hadn't played them but we wanted to shine some light on them anyway.  Also, we thought that since we teach so many games and a lot of them being on the fringe of "heavy games" we should also put a short list of our top intro into heavy games to teach.  SO with that long winded (and kinda sparce on humor explanation) let me just thank you in advance for listening and downloading our podcast!  We do appreciate it!!

We like heavy games in general, so when a listener and friend asked us to do a top 10 list comprised of heavy games it was a no brainer for us.  The criteria for this list were that it had to be weighted by BGG at 3.75 with at least 25 ratings, had to be in our collection and we were judging them strictly from a 2 player perspective.  So if any of that interests you by all means give it a dl and listen!  Thank you!
