What’s in a Word? - Best Word Based Party Games
We’ve got seventeen game suggestions for a fan who is looking for word based party games. After that I review the new second edition of World’s Fair 1893 and let everyone know if it’s worth upgrading if you have the original. We finish off with thoughts on Space Base, Tapestry and Guild Master, both digital and physical, and a bit more about Riff Raff and World’s Fair 1893.
Episode 140, recorded July 14th, 2021. Join us Wednesdays at Nine PM Eastern at https://www.twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop.
