#127: Versailles 1919

“The game which our enemies have laid before us is, in so far as the French dictated it, is a monument of pathological fear and pathological hatred; and in so far as the Anglo-Saxons dictated it, it is the work of a capitalistic policy of the most brutal and cleverest kind.” –A deliberate misquote of Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau reviewing Versailles 1919Games Played Last Week:01:40 -Nippon (Nuno Bizarro Sentieiro & Paulo Soledade, What's Your Game?, 2015)05:24 -Space Cadets: Away Missions (Dan Raspler & Al Rose, Stronghold, 2015)09:10 -Sonora (Rob Newton, Pandasaurus Games, 2020)14:51 -Godzilla: Tokyo Clash (Prospero Hall, Funko Games, 2020)19:41 -Flaming Pyramids (Norbert Abel, Cheeky Parrot Games, 2018)21:27 -FlickFleet (Jackson Pope & Paul Wilcox, Eurydice Games, 2018)23:17 -Can't Stop (Sid Sackson, Parker Brothers, 1980)24:24 -Alone (Andrea Crespi & Lorenzo Silva, Horrible Guild, 2018)News (and why it doesn't matter):31:00 Spiel des Jahres (Pictures) and Kennerspiel des Jahres (The Crew) winners32:06 Daimyo: Rebirth of an Empire by laboitedejeu33:03 Steven Universe: Beach-a-Palooza is in trouble?35:30 Walker watches Pendulum36:15 Spielworxx's Die Macher on BGG Store37:22 Feature Game: Versailles 1919 (Geoff Engelstein & Mark Herman, GMT Games, 2020) Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Om Podcasten

A podcast about all manner of hobby games by Mike Walker and Mark Bigney. Bad games don't go easy on you, so we don't go easy on them. Thorough analysis via reviews, news, and discussion of topics in gaming. We take context seriously, we value your time, and we're not into hype. Just because games are fun doesn't mean we can't take them seriously, and just because we take them seriously doesn't mean we can't have fun.
