Well, we made it to 2025, technically. What new board games are coming out to give us hope for the future?

• Frank describes one of his choices as "big...sprawling...French..."


• Joe is unhappy with Mike's love/hate relationship with Tales of the Arabian Nights


• Has Joe made The Ultimate Crowdfunding Mistake?


• Will Frank go 3-for-3 on Fantasy Name: Dramatic Subtitle?


• The delightful Deep Regrets teaser trailer that sold Jayson on the game

Are we wrong in some way? (Almost certainly.) Do you want to tell us what the correct choices would have been? Come visit our newly-revived Discord server to chat with us and some other like-minded game nerds!
