Sometimes a game's title leads to it being underplayed. Such is not the case for Carolus Magnus, whose chief downside might be the surplus of excellent aliases (Chuckie Mags, Charlie Big-Big, Carlos Grande, Caroolie Magoonie, et al). Planet Unknown, on the other hand, hardly sticks in one's memory. Planet Lazy Susan, though perhaps a bit clumsy, would have likely generated more interest and most definitely adhered to gamers' memory more.Games Played Last Week:01:06 -I.S.S.

"From the discovery of New France to the 1981 Referendum, all of Quebec history is based on a single fallacy: that the British actually wanted to own Quebec. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. The British already had a surplus of colonies in the sunny Caribbean and took little interest in the Canadian icebox later dismissed by Voltaire as nothing more than 'quelques arpents de neige'... In 1759, with war raging everywhere between France and England, the British knew if would look suspicious if they didn't engage the French in North America. They placed the expedition in the hands of a thirty-two-year-old, inexperienced general, James Wolfe, and gave him strict orders: 'Put up a good fight... but lose.' Wolfe devised a clever theatrical strategy. He would choose an impossible attack-route: Arriving by boat on the St. Lawrence river then scaling the unassailable walls of the fortress of Quebec, thus guaranteeing defeat and dumping Quebec with France for good. But Wolfe's glorious defeat was snapped from the jaws of victory by Montcalm who brilliantly out-manoeuvred Wolfe and surrendered--a stroke of genius that got the colony off France's hands once and for all."-Nick Auf der Mar, "La Petite Histoire du Québec (Version Anglaise)"Games Played Last Week:01:09 -SEAL Team Flix (Pete Ruth & Mark Thomas, WizKids, 2018) 02:37 -Teotihuacan: City of Gods (Daniele Tascini & Dávid Turczi, NSKN Games, 2018)04:04 -Yokohama (Hisashi Hayashi, Tasty Minstrel Games, 2016)04:48 -Sprawlopolis (Steven Aramini, Danny Devine, & Paul Kluka, Button Shy, 2018)08:26 -Mezo (John Clowdus, Kolossal Games, 2019)13:25 -The Crew: The Quest for Planet 9 (Thomas Sing, KOSMOS, 2019)15:02 -Qwixx (Steffen Benndorf, Gamewright, 2012)16:41 -That's Pretty Clever (Wolfgang Warsch, Schmidt Spiele, 2018)17:30 -Coloretto (Michael Schacht, ABACUSSPIELE, 2003)19:32 -Orléans: Invasion (Inka Brand, Markus Brand, & Reiner Stockhausen, dlp Games, 2015)20:59 -Scythe (Jamey Stegmaier, Stonemaier Games, 2016)News (and why it doesn't matter):25:55 Expansion to Twilight Imperium 4th ed.26:44 Pandemic Legacy Season 027:20 Undaunted: Reinforcements28:39 DeepMind: An AI for Diplomacy?29:35 Lord of the Rings: Anniversary Edition31:01 Steven Universe Beach-a-Palooza on Kickstarter July 14th31:29 Pendulum by Stonemaier31:39 Lost Ruins of Arnak by CGE31:59 Documentary: Gamemaster32:42 Feature Game: Imperial Struggle (Ananda Gupta & Jason Matthews, GMT Games, 2020)

To be clear, we're not giving or receiving any awards this week--rather we're discussing their use, possible abuse, and impact on the hobby. Were we to deserve an award for this episode, though, clearly it would be for the quality and quantity of top-notch segues. Play style leads to play style, mechanism to mechanism, all flowing as naturally and as smoothly as a natural and smooth thing.

Está no ar o 3º episódio do MEEPLE VORTEX, podcast sobre boardgames idealizado pelos canais Deathmatch, Tábula Quadrada e Jogatina BG! Um novo episódio de Meeple Vortex será publicado todo dia 10 (às vezes antes) de cada mês no feed do JBG, e será constituído de três blocos: jogatinas recentes, análise de um título escolhido e um tópico de discussão. E para este episódio, você vai conferir: No primeiro bloco nós comentamos quais foram os boardgames que estiveram em nossas jogatinas: Renato: Star Wars: Outer Rim, Explorers of the North Sea, Invasores do Mar do Norte, Shipwrights of the North Sea e Inis;Zabu: The Golden Ages e Star Wars: Rebellion;Butilheiro: Cartógrafos: Um Conto de Roll Player, Raccoon Tycoon e Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Board Game of English Magic. No segundo bloco fizemos a análise de um dos recentes lançamentos da escola Italiana de Design: Teotihuacan: City of Gods Em Teotihuacan, volte no tempo milhares de anos para a maior cidade dos astecas. Testemunhe a glória e o crepúsculo da poderosa civilização pré-colombiana, acumule riquezas, ganhe favores dos deuses e se torne o construtor da magnífica Pirâmide do Sol. Desenvolvido por Daniele Tascini, com ilustrações de Odysseas Stamoglou, Teotihuacan é um jogo competitivo, onde cada jogador controla um conjunto de dados de trabalhadores, que são movimentados em torno de um tabuleiro modular para realizar diversas ações e garantir mais pontos de vitória que seus adversários. O jogo é destinado para 1-4 jogadores e com duração de 150-180 minutos, que foi produzido pela NSKN Games em 2018 e distribuído no Brasil pela Bucaneiros Jogos em 2019. E no terceiro bloco, trouxemos para a nossa mesa de discussão a questão de como definir, ou tentar definir, o que faz de um boardgame ser considerado um clássico. Quais pontos são revelantes nessa discussão? Seriam os jogos abstratos são mais fáceis de considerar como clássicos? Isso e muito mais nessa discussão!

Currencies drive many things, perhaps most things. HATE is driven by a currency called Savagery, which I believe is floated on the international market and its exchange rate fluctuates daily. We here at So Very Wrong About Games fuel our episodes with Snark, which is pegged conveniently to the Canadian Dollar. As a consequence, when some of you might be tempted to correct Mark on the name of the 1987 Richard Halliwell design ("um, actually, it's Block Mania, not Block Panic"), you are only making them stronger.AYURIS: Warhammer Underworlds: Shadespire (David Sanders, Games Workshop, 2017) 1m54sGames Played Last Week: -HATE 4m34s (Raphaël Guiton, Jean-Baptiste Lullien, Alexandru Olteanu, & Nicolas Raoult, CMON, 2019)-Climb! 7m08s (Benoit Michaud, Le Scorpion Masqué, 2008)-Siege of the Citadel 9m32s (Richard Borg, Eric M.

Shelley and I get a chance to preview the forthcoming Bezier Games' title  Cabo by Mandy Henning and Melissa Limes from Bezier Games and then have fun burning our brains, building a pyramid, and attempting to earn the gods' favors in Teotihuacan: City of Gods by Daniele Tascini from NSKN Games

You do you, Walker always says, except he almost never does. Mark always says smoke 'em if you got 'em, despite his never uttering those words and frankly not knowing what they mean. He tried smoking once and didn't enjoy it. Why care about such petty things as truth or data when it feels consistent with a narrative you're peddling? Echoes of contemporary politics abound, as we ponder whether a game needs to be balanced so long as it tells a good tale.AYURIS: Rising Sun (Eric Lang, CMON, 2018) 5m26sGames Played Last Week: -Cerebria: The Inside World 8m57s (Richard Amann, Viktor Peter, István Pócsi, Frigyes Schőberl, Nick Shaw, & Dávid Turczi, Mindclash Games, 2018)-Teotihuacan: City of Gods 11m22s (Daniele Tascini, NSKN Games, 2018)-Spirit Island 12m10s (R.

Players aren't the only people who make choices, of course. Designers and publishers make decisions about the setting and the theme of their games. Insofar as games can communicate a message--whether purely aesthetic or more ideological--it is beneficial to have a clear vision. Things can get exceptionally problematic when you start playing fast and loose with things of great cultural and historical import. Incidentally, I will note that while our topic and our feature game often have no connection between them, sometimes they do. I don't know why I'm mentioning that this week.Games Played Last Week: -Hyperborea: Light and Shadow 1m37s (Andrea Chiarvesio, Maurizio Vergendo, & Pierluca Zizzi, Asterion Press, 2016)-Between Two Cities 3m15s (Matthew O'Malley, Morten Monrad Pedersen, & Ben Rosset, Stonemaier, 2015)-Factory Funner 5m03s (Corné van Moorsel, Cwali, 2016)-Photosynthesis 8m06s (Hjalmar Hach, Blue Orange, 2017)-Stephenson's Rocket: Eastern USA & China 9m13s (Reiner Knizia, Grail Games, 2018)-Petrichor 12m12s (David Chircop & Dávid Turczi, APE Games, 2018)-The Voyages of Marco Polo 12m57s (Simone Luciani & Daniele Tascini, Hans im Gluck, 2015)-Teotihuacan: City of Gods 14m59s (Daniele Tascini, NSKN Games, 2018)-Dominant Species 15m37s (Chad Jensen, GMT, 2010)-Res Publica 18m03s (Reiner Knizia, Queen, 1991)News (and why it doesn't matter)-Descent into new digital depths 22m05s-Fards of Inshinity digital 22m20s-Failed Carnival of Monsters rises again 23m02s-Die Macher won't die 24m15sFeature Game: Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done 25m10s (Seth Jaffee, Tasty Minstrel, 2018)Topic: Thematic Disconnects 48m15s

As a new coping mechanism, Mark and Walker decide to expunge their deepest shameful acts of conspicuous consumption and frivolous travel by talking about it on the internet.

In the second episode of Quick Looks from The Long View, Elhannan Lloyd Keller and I tackle two new games. First up is Too Many Cinderellas from Grail Games. Does this new micro game bring anything new to the field? Is it just a light filler, or does it offer opportunities with clever play? Listen and find out! Next, we review Roll for the Galaxy from Rio Grande Games. Is it possible for the dice version of a game to EVEN be better than the original? Listen to hear our thoughts about this fascinating new game. Finally, I review Versailles from NSKN Games. Does this game offer anything new to the worker placement genre? Is there a rondel hidden in there? Check out the review to find out! Thanks, of course, to my sponsor www.gamesurplus.com, the Dice Tower and thanks to YOU for listening!

In this special episode of The Long View, I'm pleased to be joined by first time contributor Christian K as we discuss the new classic bluffing game, Coup. Along the way we discuss the expansion Coup: Reformation and the upcoming Coup: Rebellion G54. What makes this game so interesting? How balanced are the roles? Is it the best of the bluffing games, or does it grow stale after repeated play? Find out what Christian has to say about all of these questions and more in this special episode of The Long View! As a bonus, I also review the NSKN Games title Praetor. What makes this worker placement game any different than any other? Is age and experience better than youth? Find out, finally, in this episode! The review can be found at the 1:06:30 mark of the episode. I also review the upcoming release from Stronghold Games, Dark Moon. Is this the new king of hidden traitor games? What happens when good people have to do bad things? Is this game the ultimate recipe for paranoia? Listen and find out! The review can be found at the 1:24:30 mark of the episode. Finally, I announce the winner of The Long View supporter drive! Who wins the copy of Mysterium? Listen and find out after the Dark Mood review. Thanks SO much to everyone for their support!
