Description

Anna and Jared settle in to the Two-Top Table this week to discuss three solo games that have the option of playing at two: Eila & Something Shiny published by North Star Games, A Gentle Rain and Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto both published by Incredible Dream Studios.

Note: Incredible Dream Studios was kind enough to provide us with a review copy of both A Gentle Rain and Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto. Our intention is to review each game fairly and honestly whether we purchase a game or are given a game for review.
