Podcast Episode 49: PAX East 2019

We played a whole bunch of new games at PAX East and you’re going to hear about them! Marc, Matt, and a SECOND Marc bring you the lowdown on every single one of them. This is a mega episode with some mega games (but not megagames, sadly). One of them is easily leading GOTY contention for 2019. We’ve got euros, we’ve got dexterity games, we’ve got train games, and one that kinda looks like a children’s construction set. Don’t even get me started on Trollfjord.

Spoilers below if you don’t want to know our rankings.
