It's a star-studded eleganza extravaganza, featuring your two least-favourite SVWAG hosts giving you an incomplete capsule summary of a terrible year of great games. Of course, they neglected to play That One Game, of course, which means that all their observations are utterly useless, but how does that differentiate this episode from any other? This offering is more classy, however, as in a concession to the glitz and glamour of end-of-year shows, both hosts begrudgingly and uncharacteristically wear pants. (You might be asking--is that "pants" in the British sense or the Canadian sense? The answer is yes.)Games Played Last Week:02:50 -Fossilis (David Alberto Diaz, Kids Table BG, 2020)05:07 -In Too Deep (Josh Cappel & Daryl Chow, Burnt Island Games, 2021)10:17 -French Toast (Uncredited, Blue Beard Entertainment, 2021)12:06 -Magnate: The First City (James Naylor, Naylor Games, 2021)18:02 -Corrosion (Stefan Bauer, Capstone Games, 2021)20:35 -G.I.

We sit down with Helaina and Josh from Kids Table Board Gaming and Burnt Island Games. What makes their games special? The post 217 – Kids Table Board Gaming! – The Family Gamers Podcast appeared first on The Family Gamers.

The Krewe of Board Game Gumbo chats with Daryl Chow (from Origame) and Josh Cappel (from Burnt Island Games) during their big Kickstarter for In Too Deep. BJ digs the theme: players will "hack" into the minds of cyber enhanced criminals and try to bring down The Syndicate. But if they get too corrupted -- "in too deep" -- they risk losing it all. It is out on Kickstarter from Burnt Island Games. They also chat about some of the recent hot games Daryl and BJ have played: Remember Our Trip Kopi King Plantopia: The Card Game Crazy Octopus Smartphone Inc. Status Update 1.1 Finally, the Name Father is back and only 22% distracted by the Islanders deep run into the playoffs. Steve is focused tonight on The Envie Game -- Daryl & Josh have picked one game together that they have the envie to play. Had Steve and BJ done their usual homework, instead of worrying about hockey and hurricanes, they might have picked this one up pretty easily, but instead, there is a shocking twist ending!  Thanks for listening!   Board Game Gumbo is a proud member of Punchboard Media Gumbo Live!

I don't know about you, but I've always fantasized about living out some type of Hollywood crime (eg. bank robberies, heists, ect.). The level of planning, skill and sheer luck required seems electrifying. In Too Deep by Burnt Island Games let's you do just that in order to save humanity from the insidious Syndicate. You'll be hacking into criminals to try and gather enough evidence to bring the Syndicate down. Will you go deep undercover to maintain the peace or will you succumb to the power you've managed to acquire? Check out BoardGameCo here.Should we play it again? Bring it to the channel?
