Welcome to 2022! We herald in the new year by diving into dungeons(that likely were produced by sinkholes), stacking cards, stacking fuzzy balls, stacking roads and rails, and getting frustrated at games that make us act against the best interest of the party. We also have our first top five in a segment we dubbed “Five in Five”. Five minutes to create a top five. Simple. Keep smilin' in 2022, and don't let the bastards get you down. Intro:Dungeon Encounters (Square Enix, Nintendo Switch)Featured Games:25:15 The Game: Face to Face (Steffens Benndorf, Reinhard Staupe, Pandasaurus Games)38:10 The Fuzzies (Wolfgang Warsch, Alex Hague, Justin Vickers, CMYK)49:10 Railroad Ink Challenge (Hjalmar Hach, Lorenzo Silva, Horrible Guild)1:34:00 Townsfolk Tussle (Stephen Louis, Tony Mayer, Rachel Rusk, Panic Roll)Off-Brand - The Peter Jackson Super Trilogies Special Extended Cut:1:34:40 Lord of the Rings1:53:00 The Beatles: Get BackFive in Five:2:22:10 Our DEFINITIVE Top 5 Beatles Songs

Perhaps it would be inevitable that there would be juvenile comments about the components in Catan: Starfarers. This is, after all, the gaming series that brought us endless unfunny remarks about wood and sheep. Perhaps the sculptors for the pieces knew what they were doing and, in turn, laughing at us. I suppose we must be thankful that Klaus Teuber remained high-minded--one shudders to imagine what the satirical outlook of, say, Vlaada Chvatil would have done with the same material.Games Played Last Week: -Street Masters: Aftershock 2m18s (Adam & Brady Sadler, Blacklist Games, 2019)-Big City: 20th Anniversary Jumbo Edition! 4m51s (Franz-Benno Delonge, Mercury Games, 2019)-Wavelength 7m46s (Alex Hague, Justin Vickers, & Wolfgang Warsch, Palm Court, 2019)-Warfighter: The Private Military Contractor Card Game 10m32s (Dan Verssen, DVG Games, 2019)-The Shipwreck Arcana 15m42s (Kevin Bishop, Meromorph Games, 2017)-Yggdrasil Chronicles 17m26s (Cédric Lefebvre, Ludonaute, 2019)News (and why it doesn't matter):-Tokyo Game Market 21m39s-Matagot Makes Pronoun Progress 22m00s-Spycon (Where Everyone Is a Spy) 23m46s-Warhammer Underworlds Digital 24m33s-Airship City in English 26m00s-Expanding Spheres of Influence 27m00s-Flotilla 29m07sFeature Game: Catan: Starfarers 30m08s (Klaus Teuber, KOSMOS, 2019)

Walker introduces a new feature, the LIGHTNING ROUND. Destinies are determined and legends are forged in the lightning round, or at least they could be if it were not merely the pretext for his trolling.

We puzzle over the practices and intentions of game designers this week as though we were archaeologists trying to divine the practices of ashen Pompeiians. Why did these authors insert this mechanism into their artifact? Was it a mating ritual? Was it an obeisance to some vengeful, long-dead god? Was it to shoehorn in player interaction? Or was it to placate a Kickstarter audience? Oh, sorry, that one is redundant with the obeisance to a god thing. Also the mating ritual thing, if you think about it.Games Played Last Week: -Wavelength 1m12s (Alex Hague, Justin Vickers, & Wolfgang Warsch, Palm Court, 2019)-Carcassonne: Gold Rush (Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, Hans im Gluck, 2014)-Unmatched: Battle of Legends 12m56s (Rob Daviau, JR Honeycutt, & Justin D.
