  • They aren’t called Frank but they all are.

    When all the sharks are dead I will still be enjoying this podcast. Entertaining and informative… sometimes talk about Dunelm home furnishings too. Board games and rpgs discussed with honesty.

  • Charming but inarticulate Brits

    A couple of blokes discuss their feelings about board games, with a focus on feelings. Short on the kind of comparisons or descriptions of game content that might make their reviews more helpful.

    For example, they say Gaia Project is similar to Clans of Caledonia, both of which they’ve reviewed, but they don’t actually compare them. They also describe CoC as an area control game (it isn’t) and least helpful of all, finish off reviews with “it didn’t quite tickle my fancy and I can’t put my fin... more

Episode 158 - Endeavor Deep Sea, Castle Combo, Moving Wild, & Pathfinder 2nd Ed
Q: How does Pathfinder 2nd Edition's mechanics differ from Dungeons and Dragons?
Pathfinder 2nd Edition allows players to use multiple actions with different quantities for various actions, creating more tactical depth compared to D&D's simpler rules.
Episode 158 - Endeavor Deep Sea, Castle Combo, Moving Wild, & Pathfinder 2nd Ed
Q: How does Endeavor Deep Sea compare to the original Endeavor?
Endeavor Deep Sea is more accessible and faster to play, but it also feels lighter than the original. The mechanics of exploration in the game make it enjoyable but potentially straightforward once players understand the actions required.
Episode 162 - My Little Scythe, FlickFleet, Monkey Palace, Cora Quest, In The Footsteps of Darwin, In The Footsteps of Marie Curie
Q: If you were a tabletop game, what game would you be and why?
The speakers humorously share their views, with one comparing himself to "Jenga" due to his structured but unstable nature.

Andy dislikes deck builders, particularly Netrunner, as he struggles to chain cards together effectively, while Rory enjoys engine builders but finds himself performing poorly in them.
