Tonight on GeekNights, we review Quacks, previously released as The Quacks of Quedlinburg in 2018. It's a push your luck game that is fun, but just short of greatness.

Episode 578: Network or Route Building Games We Don't Own Episode release date is May 14, 2025 Show Notes This week we are at the final connection of our Network or Route building games discussion. All routes are closing in this episode. For those who may have missed it, network or route building games where players are establishing connections between points on the board or map. For this last episode in this series, we will be looking at the larger list of top rated network or route building games according to BGG. I selected the Network or Route building Mechanic and limited that search to games that are rated with 7 stars or higher, and each of these games must have a minimum of 2000 user ratings. So let's get on board and punch the ticket of this discussion of network building games at the game table.

Send us a textIn this episode, the crew asks the ultimate Warhammer 40K "what if" — what would happen if the Golden Throne was turned off? Would the Emperor truly die, be reborn, or ascend as a Chaos God? Could the Imperium survive without him, or would it collapse into anarchy? The team explores theories from across the lore, from the Astronomican's failure to the reactions of the other factions across the galaxy (if they even care). Get ready for a mix of grimdark speculation, deep lore dives, and classic Wobbly banter as we imagine a galaxy without the Throne keeping humanity's last hope alive.
