Then, Albert talks to Ignaczy Trzewiczek about Imperial Settlers, Robinson Crusoe, Legacy: The Testament of Duke de Crecy and solitaire games. Finally, Julius and Albert take an in depth look at Imperial Settlers.
Note: I incorrectly mentioned that Imperial Settlers won the 1 Player guild's game of the year last year. In fact, it won the Golden Geek award for solo games and the 1 Player guild's Best Solo Variant for the campaign cards. Oops :)

Finally summer break is over and things return to normal. Well, at least we make a poor attempt at normal. In this show we have a small news segment and a small Kickstarter report, followed by two game reviews. That's right... two!
First we look at the independently published game, Hero's Journey Home by Graham Cranfield. This small card game features unique art by the designer himself. Then we look at Nations: The Dice Game by Rustan Håkansson. This is definately the little brother of Nations which was covered on the show a year and a half ago.
