The season of ghostwalker and haunts are upon us. That's right, it's Halloween right around the corner. Of course, that also means it's time to dust off those terrifying and spooky board games. On this show, our hosts will do a little Trick or Trivia trying to solve Justin's tricks and riddles. It's terrifying, it's spooky, it's Trick or Trivia!!!

Not to mention we also catch up on the board games we have been playing including Age of Innovation from Feurerland Speile (Capstone Games) and Windmill Valley from Board and Dice.

Conesy is joined by two other Dungeon Masters that helped run adventures for Gooey Cube at Gen Con 2024. GM Rob, GM Neil, and Conesy go over their Game Master experience for Gooey Cube. Of course, they also have a great conversation about what they do to prepare to run games at the table.

The WiscoDice team touches base going over some of the games they have been playing including Final Girl from Van Ryder Games and Wonderlands War from Druid City Games. After that, it is time for what you have all been waiting for. That's right, it's the Dice is Right. We each give clues to one of our favorite 5 player board games and see if the others can figure it out. Oh, and of course, we score points along the way. Can you outscore our hosts?
