This week, we look at a year of gaming. Well, sorta. We look at games that have a year in them or somehow use the flow of time in them. It was harder than expected, but we found a few games that do have a pretty decent sense of time passing. Check out the sample fancy map someone drew for Cartographers: 02:30 Creature Comforts (BGG, KTBG) 04:30 Project Ecco (RPG Geek, More Blueberries) 07:55 Cartographers (BGG, Thunderworks) 11:50 Hostage Negotiator: Career (BGG, VRG) 16:50 Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 (BGG, Z-Man) 19:05 Fields of Arle (BGG, Asmodee) Honorable mentions Tzolk'in: The Mayan Calendar (BGG, Buried Without Ceremony) Fox Curio's Floating Bookshop (RPG Geek, Lost Ways Club) The Quiet Year (RPG Geek) Legacy of Yu (BGG)

Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content No, it's not a Bisto advert, it's Rory and Steve's gushing review of Yonder from Sinister Fish[/company], their latest worker placement boardgame from Villagers and Moon designer Haakon Gaarder - which is currently live on Kickstarter and absolutely worth your time checking out. We then get all Lovecraftian with a lively discussion about Cthulhu Death May Die from CMON (and provided by show sponsor Kienda), its similarities to Mansions of Madness and whether both, or either are any good - are you Team Sid, or Team Rory? We then move to the other end of tabletop gaming as we explore the bonkers, pulpy Achtung! Cthulhu 2D20 Starter Set from Modiphius.

Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content The Polyhedron Collider Cast is back with another episode packed with tabletop gaming chatter. In this episode, our hosts, Steve, Andy, Sid, and Rory, bring us breaking news that's set to change the game – literally. We're talking about a new sponsorship deal with Kienda that's as exciting for the listeners as it is for the podcast. With a special QR code discount for board game purchases, it's a win-win for everyone involved. But that's just the beginning. The episode takes a playful turn with discussions ranging from selling body parts for board games (yes, you read that right) to the possibility of wearing sponsored pyjamas. The meat of the episode, however, lies in the thoughtful and in-depth discussions of two board games that have captured the hosts' attention: 'Expeditions' and 'Scholars of the South Tigris.' We'll also be answering listener questions, including a trip down memory lane as we attempt to recall the very first games we played with each other. Expect a blend of nostalgia, confusion, and the usual banter as we try to piece together our gaming origins.

When we think about some of our favorite games, we know them like the back of our hands. Very rarely do we need to refresh on the rules or use a player aid, they're very straight forward. However, for most others, these games can be quite the challenge and because of this, these games may not get played as much as we'd like. This week on the Discussion Phase we try to tackle the "how" on getting these games played more, and listing some steps to get new player from point A to B. Afters hours of play, and plenty of tears from defeat, we give our first reviews of A Song of Ice and Fire Miniatures Game, update on Pandemic Legacy: Season 0, and recent play Babylonia. Make sure to join us on Discord and get in on the discussion with us! https://discord.gg/WKZkT2DDNs Geek Group App: https://geekgroup.app/groups/yvhedwg8/collection Make sure to add your BGG profile to the Discussion Phase group!

It's an expectedly gorgeous simulation racer that goes back to one of its earliest entries for its inspirations. Is this the perfect audiobook game? 21:20 - “Do you think anybody will notice?” 26:00 - Everything Everywhere All at Once is the greatest multiverse movie, one where you just should not even try to comprehend what's going on that, no matter how wild it gets, always manages to return to a very human story. 36:33 - A return to Pandemic Legacy: Season 2, as we check in with Russell Hobbs. 40:25 - Marvel: Remix turns card drafting into an extremely compelling superhero-based spin on Fantasy Realms from WizKids, with a simplicity to it that is immediately, and overwhelmingly, appealing. It's a joy. 46:24 - Messing about in the water. 47:43 - Long Shot: The Dice Game is a roll and write and gambling game from Perplext that we've been after for quite a while now.

Amber and Marc talk about the best games of 2020. The pandemic slowed down game playing so we've delayed this episode a year to allow for more gaming before we declare what is the "best". We also look at the best games of 5, 10, and 20 years ago, because over-focusing on the new is detrimental for a number of reasons. Remember the great games of the past!

Bonus episode time! The amazing Rob Daviau (@robdaviau on Twitter) returns to tell us about Return to Dark Tower, which will be live on Kickstarter on January 14 (less than a week away)! This promises to be an amazing, high-tech game combining two great design talents (Rob and Isaac Childress of Gloomhaven fame) with a substantial chunk of technological wizardry and a healthy dollop of nostalgia. Rob also drops a few tidbits about Pandemic Legacy: Season 3 (!) and Cthulhu: Death May Die as a bonus on top of your bonus, because we like you that much. We apologize for the lousy sound quality here; we had a lot of technical issues getting the interview to record at all, and wound up going with about our fourth-choice solution. You can still hear all the good stuff, though. Make sure to swing by Restoration Games' website so you don't miss the Kickstarter when it goes live next week - this one is going to be a doozy! And, as always, comments, questions, suggestions, and iTunes reviews are always appreciated!

In our seventy-sixth episode, Linsae joins Aaron and Quinten as we announce that we have joined Punchboard Media, a new board game media network, talk about our new show, #DATENIGHT, and talk about the games we have been playing lately. Then we switch things up by having our discussion before our review as we talk about Our Favourite Things, as submitted by you, our listeners.
