This episode is on the new game by Bruno Cathala & Ludovic Maublanc. The game is a cooperative/solo game on the sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912. However, this game is really just a variant of the classic solitaire card game which I just remembered is sometimes called Klondike...doh! Anyway, as I said, it is just a variant, but one that I found made the game MUCH better than the original. The theme and mechanics work very very well together and make this game much more than the sum of its parts.
I finally get around to reviewing Onirim's younger brother, Urbion, aka Equilibrion. The game is similar in style and simplicity, however it does have it's own distinct feel. Does the game hold up to it's legacy? It does for me.
This long overdue episode is finally out. In this show, I look at Rune Age, the deck-building game by Corey Konieczka and published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2011. This is a fantasy themed deck-building game set in the world of Terrinoth which is also the setting for Rune bound, DungeonQuest, Descent, and Rune Wars. All of which, except for the last 2, support solitaire play. I also introduce solitaire gaming month... May!
This episode covers, briefly, the history of solitaire, resolves a contest, and then describes a different solitaire... Bowling Solitaire by Sid Sackson. Happy April Fool's Day all.
I'm really excited by this episode. I've been wanting to talk about dungeon crawlers for the longest time. Not only that, but I even review a game appropriately named Dungeon Crawler. This is a ECG (expandable card game) in which to take a team of characters into a dungeon. I also give a broad general look at dungeon crawling. Oh, make sure to pay attention to the small contest.
Note that one game I mentioned in the news, Once Upon a Fable, no longer seems to exist on Kickstarter. Sorry about that.
This latest episode looks at the new game by Serge Lagat & Bruno Cathala. This is a small memory math card game. Also, I briefly look at Tunnels & Trolls which is currently on Kickstater.
Welcome to episode 13. In this show I first go over my "1 player podcast solitaire gaming awards" for my played games last year. Awards are given in about a dozen categories such as...
I also give a brief description of Friday, by Friedmanm Friese.
