Phil has fanboyed over multiple games. Some of which Heather has really enjoyed, some of which she has barely tolerated. Now it’s Phil’s turn to be a good sport. Set is a pattern recognition card game that Heather grew up playing and is now introducing to the husband. Not a game I was familiar with …
I have to admit there aren’t too many boardgames that Phil brings up that I’ve never even heard of, but Jaipur is one of them. This made for a rather pleasant surprise as this episode was an introduction to a game I knew nothing about. A trading game that takes a little bit of play …
Century: Golem Edition is a game we’ve played on our Thursday Twitch streams pre-pandemic, it’s one we’ve played as a group before actually “formally” creating our gamer group, and it was the very first episode of Table for Two.

Playing the Disney version, this episode features a new camera layout so you can follow the action closely, watch them …
Look, we here at Assorted Meeples are all about Dragons’s rights to decent housing and caves are so Middle Earth. Why not spice up a Mejong game with building a fine castle worthy of our new Dragon Overlords? Dragons deserve nice homes, too! This is an interesting game that takes a fun but basic game …
Getting away from cards and dice, Cobra Paw is a great domino pattern match game that leads to short, fun, and entertaining to watch matches. Nicknaming the game “Fingers of Fury” isn’t much of an exaggeration. Upping the old card game “Slap Jack” you need fast fingers, a quick eye, and a willingness to jam …
