In this episode a shortage of available hosts sees Sarah and Def head once more unto the breach without any support from a 3rd host. They do so however with aplomb as they take us on a journey through Age of Steam, Frosthaven, Hegemony and Mists Over Carcassonne to name just a few of the games they discussed, but would you say any of these game designs are timeless?
We also recap last week's Question of the Pod: Which childhood cartoon would you like to see as a Board Game? Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared their experiences with us on Discord and the Facebook Community.
And as always, we Swear An Oath.
Question of the Pod: What game do you think is a timeless design and why?
Sizzling Games: Hegemony (30:13), Mists Over Carcassonne (54:15)
Question of the Pod (1:09:53)
Swear An Oath: (1:24:02)

Episode 244
In this episode we have a different combination of the Motor City Gameworks team join us, we can’t seem to get all 3 of them in the same place at the same time! We got to talk to them about their upcoming kickstarter French Quarter and how the game came to be. We decided to make them feel more at home and use one of the segments from their podcast with a top 3 list which was really fun.
We also catch up on last weeks Question of the pod “What are the benefits to solo gaming??”
Finally, in Swear An Oath.

In this exciting episode Adrian plays a game that’s not his sizzle but he ends up sizzling anyway (who would have thought he would ever change his mind midway through recording!) Jules is BACK and running a political campaign in 19th century New York. And Dan, a mysterious man in the shadows from out of town, takes revenge on his sizzling card game set in the noir era. Will he win? Who knows, but wherever he goes trouble follows him like the embers on a half-smoked cigarette in the pale moon light
We also catch up on last weeks Question of the pod “what keeps you engaged in a board game??”
