Hey everyone! This week's episode IS coming but it will be a day late. It is quite long and is taking me a while to edit. Sorry for the delay but it is coming soon!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, we discuss Cloudspire from Chip Theory Games! While the game is an older title, a brand new expansion is out!!! Before we can cover that content, however, we first must talk about the base game and what we think about it.

While the title seems confusing at first, it becomes very apparent why this expansion is named "Do What?" You are tasked to carry highly dangerous materials in this already chaotic game of Galaxy Trucker! Join us as we talk about this absolutely silly game! If you love Galaxy Trucker, you need this expansion!

This week we review the beautiful card game, Canvas, from Tycoon Games. In this game, you'll be overlaying three transparent cards to make a painting and scoring points based on the icons at the bottom of the cards. This game is easy to learn, but will leave your brain feeling tired over trying to figure out the best combination of cards to score the highest amount of points possible.
