Maybe you've heard of that hefty game called Gloomhaven, the #1 game on BoardGameGeek for over 5 years. Or its heftier sequel, Frosthaven, the highest-funded gaming project on Kickstarter ever. We're not sure how their designer, Isaac Childres, had time to chat with Going Analog, but we weren't going to pass up the opportunity. We pick his brain on all the -havens, his upcoming plans for the franchise, modern-day crowdfunding, and his love for "dry Euros."

Timeline:

• 4:03 - Shoe's game pick: Familiar Tales.
• 7:22 - Isaac's game pick: Gaia Project.
• 13:00 - Christina's game pick: nana.
• 15:12 - Shoe's topic: the growing Gloomhaven/Frosthaven universe.
• 26:40 - Isaac's topic: the current state of crowdfunding.
• 35:19 - Christina's topic: how Isaac's love of "dry Euros" plays into his design philosophy.

Davey steps up to the plate and takes the first player crown once more and decides to have a bit of fun with another round of Niche Number 1's, more favourite games based on weird and unique circumstances.

FIRST PLAYER: Davey
OTHER PLAYERS: Becky, JP & Kerley

OVERVIEW

We're back from chilly Philly where the PAX Unplugged board game convention just wrapped up. It's our fourth con of the year -- you'd think we've seen it all by now but nope! There were still plenty of new board games to discover and try out.

With us to discuss the show are Kasey Girven (better known as Brain in a Jar) and Miguel Plylar-Moore (aka Johnny Deathhawk). They create/stream board game content -- and she's a neuroscientist! And they love to talk board gaming, so have a listen as we discuss...

Timeline:

• 3:29 - Shoe's game pick: Deal with the Devil
• 12:34 - Kasey's game pick: Electropolis
• 21:47 - Miguel's game pick: Bitoku
• 32:56 - Kasey's topic: The most exciting or promising games we saw at PAXU that aren't out yet
• 55:34 - Miguel's topic: The games we were surprised to see at PAXU and the ones we wish were there
• 1:05:50 - Shoe's topic: How does PAXU stack up to other board game cons?
