Solo Gamers Unite!
On this episode of the Board Game BBQ Podcast Dan, Mitch and Mike dive into the world of solo games. Mitch is a veteran of solo game, Mike is new to the solo experience, and Dan is somewhere in the middle. The crew discuss their solo experiences, why they enjoy solo games, and share some of their favourites.
In the Sizzling Games segment, Mike has been testing his dexterity with Men At Work, Mitch has been expanding his Undaunted games with the Reinforcements expansion, and Dan has been sneaking around around France in Maquis.
We dive back into the Bracket Battle and announce the winner of the last match up: Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion vs Raiders of the North Sea.
Finally in Swear an Oath, Dan has almost cleared the decks of unfulfilled oaths with just Journeys of Middle Earth remaining. Mike is roping Jules and Dan into playing Ankh in the coming days, and Mitch tiptoed through the tulips in Meadow. New oaths include Dinosaur Island: Rawr and Write (Dan), Mystic Vale (Mike), and Dune Imperium (Mitch).
And the Secret Segment makes a return after Mitch dared Dan to host the episode as Arnold Schwarzenegger. That was never going to go well…
