  • Great show, needs to be more welcoming to new players

    Love listening to these guys including the new co-host but you guys need to make your show more accessible to new players. To take one of many examples, on the fan format episode you guys literally skipped past any description of certain formats you wanted to discuss and just said “if you’re listening to this you already know what this is.” All it takes is a quick overview of any given topic (and for any card discussed a quick read of the card text) so new players can follow along. You also shou... more

  • Great podcast for Keyforge fans new and old

    Recently started playing Keyforge and found this podcast and it’s great. It’s informative and fun to listen in as a couple of Keyforge fans / friends discuss the game and what is on the horizon. When I found them, they were on like episode 48 but I started at the beginning, episode 1 and went from there. Great job guys! Keep on forging!

342 - Small Changes, Huge impact
Q: Liam, how do you feel about this errata? One being the worst and five being it's everything you could have ever dreamed of.
On a selfish level, it doesn't hurt me, but on a, I guess also selfish level, it's still annoying. So let's say three, it didn't change the nature of how you feel when this is plopped down in front of you in a game of KeyForge.
327 - Keyforging with Friends
Q: What was your experience actually playing?
Steering the bumper cars was a chore, but it was great fun once I got the hang of it.
