Episode 49.2 - Batteries Still Included, Part 2

from The Ascent of Board Games · host The Ascent of Board Games

Happy day-after-Halloween! First off, next month will be EPISODE 50, and we'd love to hear about anything you'd like us to cover in that momentous episode. Whether it's a game or a topic you've always wanted us to cover, or something we're all terribly wrong about, email us and let us know! Or, if you like, record a question or comment, send it to us, and we may include it in the episode! This month, we conclude our update to Episode 3 with a look at some more recent app-enabled board games. In this episode: Mike and Frank exchange points. Brian complains about his car troubles. (All better now, thanks!) What game does Frank call his "Kingdom Death killer"? A new game from...Restoration Hardware?!? Mike brags about his big, imposing tower. Frank gives us two last-minute additions, even more last-minuter than usual. We discuss the merits of audio narration for story games (e.g., Forteller audio). More to come next month!  As always, we'd love it if you took the time to write us an iTunes review, as it really helps us find new listeners We'd also love to have you visit our website and let us know what kinds of games we should discuss next. You're also more than welcome to comment on the episode page, or our Facebook page, or tag @ascentofgames on Twitter - whatever way you prefer to share your opinions with us, we'd love to hear them.  As always, we appreciate your listening - stay safe out there!
