Episode 154 - Spiel Essen Preview, Set A Watch, An Age Contrived, and Nucleum

Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider

Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content 

Join Steve, Andy, Sid and Rory for a jam packed episode of board game reviews, a special Essen Spiel preview and more Ramshackle Nonsense than you’ve come to love and expect.   

 

“I’m the Branston’s pickle in this ginger bread sandwich” - I mean, where else are you going to find tabletop commentary like that, eh?

 

The boys make camp on their way to face off against the big bad in a review of Set A Watch: Forsaken Isles.  Build some fancy magnetic monuments in an Age Contrived before jumping on a train  full of radioactive material in Nucleum before spending a good chunk of this episode gushing about all of the lovely games available to (finally) buy and demo and this year’s Essen Spiele.
