7LandHand : Episode 142 – Fallout

If there’s no blizzard of nuclear fallout in your neck of the woods, here’s your board game opportunity to practise how to survive before it all starts. It’s Fantasy Flight’s Fallout. We’ve all played the Bethesda Softwork’s electronic classics, now walk into the post-apocalyptic hexes on your tabletop. It’s a dog eat dog world out there…and sometimes a dog eats mutant, eats bloat-fly world, too.

7LandHand: Episode 136 – One Night Ultimate Werewolf

Ow-oooooooooooooh! It’s on me, it’s on you…it’s ONUW. One Night Ultimate Werewolf is one of our party-time classic favourites.

As our last show for 2018, and under a full-moon, we thought it prime-time to talk about a game of lycanthropic deception and bluffing.

We talk a lot about our geeky activities over Christmas, review our games of the year, do a Matt’s Quiz, and give away Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game.

7LandHand: Episode 132 – Century Spice Road

If variety is the spice of life, what is Century Spice Road, and has it ever been a show-biz newspaper? Splendor killer, Splendor impersonator, or part one of a trilogy of board gaming genius? These are some of the spicy questions tackled on this episode. Matt does a Matt’s Quiz, real neets and actual twooze are discussed and we give you the password to get 10% off Century Spice Road at any Good Games Store on the spice trading route (in 2018, that’s everywhere).

7LandHand: Episode 130 – Gloomhaven

It’s our favourite game of the year…and by the looks of internet polls, it’s everybody else’s favourite game, too. After playing this Gloomhaven for 24 hours straight (raising money for Beyond Blue) we still wanted to play more. Since that time, we have played for another two full days…and we still want to play more. It’s vast, it’s engaging, it’s Gloomhaven. Also, Matt’s Quiz’s theme tune is back…with a Matt’s quiz right after it. Neets and Twooze occurs with a winner for the Turing Tumble give-away.

Also, we announce the winner for last month’s GOTM (T.I.M.E Stories), talk geek and deliver some gaming news.
