We talk about out of the box games doing something totally different. To go along with that main topic we preview Once Upon a Line, a game that has you scratching off the board like a lottery ticket. We also review Dice Kingdoms of Valeria and follow that with a look at some birthday gaming and first thoughts on Weather Machine.   Tabletop Bellhop Gaming Podcast Episode 198, Recorded January 18th 2023.

We discuss game end mechanisms based on a question from one of our awesome patreon patrons. After that we dive into the pile of obligation and review two games, Boba Mahjong, a two player set collection card game, and Shadow Kingdoms of Valeria, a dice drafting game in the Valeria Universe. Then we wrap up with a busy week in review where I got in some New Year’s Eve gaming and we totally didn’t have a SeanCon. Tabletop Bellhop Gaming Podcast Episode 196, Recorded January 4th 2023.

A look back at the past year; our most played games, new to us games, biggest surprises, disappointments, and more. We also review two puzzle boxes from Escape Welt and wrap up with our usual Bellhop’s Tabletop segment with a frustrating Christmas Eve, a classic game play for Sean, & more. EDIT: In regards to the Escape Welt Review in this episode: In the original review, I thought that my copy of The House of the Dragon included a spelling error, information I had heard from another reviewer. I have since learned that this production issue has been fixed by Escape Welt, and that both my copy and all future copies have been corrected. I apologize to our readers/listeners and to Escape Welt for not double checking my copy of the puzzle and for including incorrect information in the original review. Ep. 195, Dec. 28th 2022.
