Episode 209: Food Chain Magnate, That Old Wallpaper, Wayfarers of the South Tigris

In this episode Adrian, Mike and Dan recap our recent collaboration with ComicCon and discuss the various gateway games we taught to the community. In Sizzling Games, Adrian has been frothing over fast food franchises, Mike has been painting patterns of paper, and Dan has been scouting the seas, sands and the stars.

We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: What are you favourite innovations in board games? Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared their photos with us on Discord and the Facebook Community.

Finally, in Swear An Oath, Adrian squared away Food Chain Magnate and has already ordered the expansion, Dan hasn't managed to get Sleeping Gods to the table yet, and Mike enjoyed Dog Park. New oaths include Pampero (Adrian), a solo-play Wayfarers of the South Tigris (Dan), and Zombicide: Undead or Alive (Mike).
