I retract forever my claim that Arkham Horror 2nd Edition can be played on an aircraft.Game of the Week (2:30)I interview Fox in the Forest designer Josh Buergel about trick-taking games he admires and plays — and preview his next design in the genre. Discussed:• Friedrich• Maria• Bridge• Fox in the Forest • The Crew• Arcs• The Six of VIII• Torchlit• Scout• Bacon• Haggis• Sykes-Picot• Sail• Knockout Whist• I’m Out• Greasy Spoon• Inside Job• FishingTrack of the Week (29:56)Josh stays on for Track of the Week to show us his favorite slice of Q-Bert’s 1994 tour de force mix, Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik.Editorial: Board Gaming’s Least Interesting Problem (36:48)So it looks like a perennial loser from the board game discourse shelf has once again landed on the table. The problem at hand? Buying too many games and not playing them.Subscription fatigue is real. I ask you to hit me off once and mail you cool stuff for doing so.
