We spend a lot of time with our friends playing board games, so we're bound to bond. But how well do we really know these people we've invited to our table? We teamed up with our pals Raina and Phil from 1 Minute Board Games to take the next step in our gaming relationship: not just play "normal" board games (which we still do plenty of with them) but play ones designed to really dig down deep and get us talking about things that would normally not come up during sessions of Sea Salt & Paper. Listen in to see what we've learned about these experiences...and each other. And on a very related note: social deduction! What's new and what are our faves in this class of games that have us lying to and manipulating each other? Timeline: 4:41 - Going Analog's game pick: Great Western Trail: New Zealand. 11:52 - 1 Minute Board Game's pick: Dune: Imperium - Uprising. 18:33 - Going Analog's topic: "Getting to know you" games. 39:32 - 1 Minute Board Game's topic: Social-deduction games.

There are lots of great games that are available for free (or at least just the cost of printer paper and ink). Some are homebrew, some are games that are available to print as a demo, and some are just weird. And I cannot stress just how much Jondi hates Werewolf.

Originally this episode was going to be about something completely different. Oh well. Toss these games in your bag and go stand in line somewhere, because it's time to think about waiting for food at restaurants while playing board games!

Brendan discusses his gaming experiences at an academic conference last week. Not a deep episode, but a nice chat with a pal while out on a walk. Also, Brendan's "secret" to winning 7 Wonders.

The boys triumphantly return to talk about alliances for a while: how they work, what they are, and whether or not they qualify for federal subsidies under the Board Game Development and Redistribution Act.
