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.
We’ve got some suggestions and game recommendations for a fan who went to a public play event and was very disappointed in the game selection. After that we review Galaxy Trucker and wrap up with a week in review featuring first thoughts on Lost Ruins of Arnak and Star Wars Unlock, plus more thoughts on Disney Sidekicks and Quezzle and a classic party game hits the table again.
Episode 159, recorded January 5th, 2021. Join us Wednesdays at Eight PM Eastern at https://www.twitch.tv/tabletopbellhop
