Love board games? Let’s talk boardgames, lots of board gaming (and a few RPGs). Tabletop Bellhop, your cardboard concierge, is here to answer your gaming and game night questions, helping you make your game nights better with tabletop game reviews and advice.
One Hundred – Celebrating our 100th podcast episode. In honour of this milestone we’ve got a special retrospective segment we’re adding to the show tonight and we’re launching our next board game giveaway. Then we’re answering one of the best questions I think we’ve ever been asked. We’re still going to do a couple of detailed reviews, those will be Katana and Jaws and then I’ve got some initial thoughts on the Pathfinder Adventure Card game along with a couple of our favourite two player games in our week in review.
This is an edited version of our live show recorded July 22nd 2020.
