Episode 495 - Childhood Board Games Reimagined as Horror Films

from Mind Gap

It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Noah Reno is back again to chat with Doug about what underrated piece of media they wish more people talked about. Next, the dorks have fun discussing how to reimagine childhood board games as horror films. Candyland is pitched as eating the sugary characters to survive. Chutes and Ladders becomes a cosmic horror. Jenga is a tale of the world being destroyed by children. There are so many more pitches PLUS suggestions from the community on how they would turn these classic games into something scary. Next, the guys discuss what board game would make the best horror franchise. Spoiler: Monopoly is one of the easiest ones to do.    Things are wrapped up with a new game called Patch Notes: Real Life Edition, where Doug reads out patch notes for real life and Noah has to decide if they're good or if they should be scrapped as garbage.
