Through the Desert
From prolific designer Reiner Knizia comes a game of strategy, patience, and cool plastic camels. The desert is still treacherous, mysterious, and without mercy but, for those willing to risk the dangers of the shifting, sun-baked sands, it holds riches beyond compare.

On this almost chiaroscuro episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Pip are chatting about games that could not be more different. First up, Rats of Wistar – a crunchy engine-building game with rats and cards and being as efficient as possible within a strict turn limit.

Podcast #249 – The Ancient Art of Putting It All On Red
On this addictive episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Tom and Pip are talking about a board game and… a VIDEO GAME? First up, a sensible and grounded conversation about the slightly perplexing world of Ancient Knowledge – a tableau builder set on top of an ancient conveyor belt. This is then followed by a ramble about Balatro – a poker-themed deck builder that’s quite clearly NOT A BOARD GAME. It’s made of ones and zeroes! It’s on a screen!

The Top 100 Board Games of All Time – Episode 2: The Quest for El Dorado
Matt: Our adventure through the Top 100 Board Games of All Time continues, with The Quest for El Dorado! And unfortunately, these boys have been CURSED.
