This week we each share the heaviest board game that we’ve played and actually enjoy and then share some of our favourite heavy games. We talk about what we’ve been playing including first thoughts on Wanted Wombats and Castle Raisers and have more thoughts on Tea Witches. We wrap up with two detailed reviews of some heavier games, Kutna Hora from CGE and House of Fado from Eagle-Gryphon Games.
