    TPGC - Episode #84 - Decrypto, Just One, The Mind, chips, and Are We Dumber than a Box of Rocks

    In episode #84 of The Party Gamecast featuring the Party Game Cast Bruce, Rocki, Bryan, Brian, Marty, and Mike take a look at the BoardGameGeek top three nominees for best party game: Decrypto, Just One, and The Mind.  We also ate some potato chips, and answered the question of whether or not we (as a group) are dumber than a box of rocks.  Are we?  Listen to our live play to find out!

     

    WHAT THE FOOD

     

    On What the Food we ate three different potato chips, only one of which made Bruce scream.

     

     

    BOARDGAMEGEEK PARTY GAME OF THE YEAR

    We took a look at the cerebral Decrypto, the raucously fun Just One, and The Mind and decided which one we (as the preeminent party game experts of the entire universe) think should be the party game of the year.

     

     

    ARE YOU DUMBER THAN A BOX OF ROCKS?

    We're not asking, that's just the title of the game we played in our "live play" segment (title still a work in progress).

    #34: You Know the Rules and So Do I

    Board game rules, unlike other rules, were not made to be broken. They're to be strictly adhered to, trust me, this is going to be totally fun, there's just a few more things to go over and then we can start. Sometimes remembering and teaching rules can feel like a burden, so where's the line? Before we explain the turn structure, we discuss Dairyman, Riff Raff, and Lords of Hellas.
