This episode is all about the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game.  This is a game that I’ve had a lot of strong and contradictory feelings about ever since I first heard of it.  But now after playing it nearly 30 times, I feel ready to dispel some myths, explore the reality of what the game does and does not do, and then finally share my opinion about how I have been able to settle my ambivalence concerning it.

In addition, I also start off this episode by announcing my contest winners and doing my typical rundown of recently played games, including Merchant of Venus, Caylus, and Madeira.

Listen, enjoy (hopefully), and feel free to give me feedback either here, via email (gamerchris@bellsouth.net), at my Guild on BoardGameGeek, or on Twitter (@kilroy_locke).
