In Episode 165 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the crew is back around the virtual tabletop to talk about some of the biggest, brain-burning board games hitting tables right now—and to share some exciting news!
We kick things off with a deep dive into Inventions: Evolution of Ideas, the latest crunchy masterpiece from Vital Lacerda. Next up, we explore Age of Innovation, the newest evolution of Terra Mystica, with modular factions, a new innovation mechanic and a whole lot of strategic depth. Finally, we saddle up and ride into Great Western Trail: Argentina, no New Zealand—wait, no—El Paso! Lets just review all the Great Western Trail games!
Plus, we’ve got two big announcements:
We’ll be recording a LIVE episode at UK Games Expo 2025! Come join us on Friday 3 May, heckle us (gently), and join the fun. https://www.ukgamesexpo.co.uk/events/2153-polyhedron-collider/
We’ve launched a brand-new Polyhedron Collider Discord server! It’s your place to chat games, ask questions, and hang out with fellow listeners. https://discord.gg/aCh2jGPggh
