Tabletop Bellhop Gaming Podcast

The Tabletop Bellhop, your cardboard concierge, is here to answer your game and game night questions. We’re striving to make everyone’s gaming experience better, with board game and RPG reviews, and Q&A.

Tonight is all about board game expansions, including our list of must have board game expansions. This is followed by three board game expansion reviews including Rise of Titans for Shadow Kingdoms of Valeria, The B-Movie Expansion for Roll Camera! and the Winter Expansion for Dice Kingdoms of Valeria. Then we’ve got even more expansion play, along with some non-expansion plays, in our week in review as well.
