CanCon – Spending $50 Canadian on Board Games
We’ve got a listener with a gift certificate for a store here in Windsor looking for game suggestions. Not only do we have some suggestions for them, but we also go on to talk about what we would buy if we had similar gift certificates.
Along with this, we’ve also got a review of Yardmaster, a card-driven train game, and an all-digital gaming week in review.
Episode 150, recorded October 13th, 2021. Join us Wednesdays at Nine PM Eastern at https://www.twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop.

ASK THE BELLHOP
“Mr. Bellhop, I am looking to buy a board game for my friends and I and I must buy it at Brimstone Games (on account of my sister buying me a gift certificate from them). I am looking for a cooperative game or a competitive game that is not so cutthroat. Do you have any recommendations for a game, and do you know sites that I can visit to do further research? Thank you in advance for your help.”
