DESCRIPTION : Game nights may have been lacking lately, but Ryan returns from BGGCon to make up for that with plenty to spare! In this episode Erin and Ryan recap some of the highlights of this years's BGGCon and then pivot into the holidays by suggesting some games you can offer up at holiday events filled with adults who may not have touched a game since Monopoly. GUESTS : None RECENTLY PLAYED GAMES - (1:11): None! Because of BGGCon! QUICK TOPICS - (1:11): BGGCon! Ryan discusses - at length - a number of game highlights, as well as his favorite part of the convention. FEATURED TOPIC - (34:13): Rather than rattle off our own version of a holiday gift guide, we take a different angle going into the holiday season talking about games to bring to events that will appeal to a wide crowd - be they gamers or not. The best Yankee Swap games are abstract, accessible, and easy-to-learn. This leads to suggestions ranging from some classic non-gamer games (like LCR) to some great Gateway level alternatives, like Splendor. PLUGS - (1:04:57): We're raffling off a copy of Rocky Road to a lucky Patreon backer. Consider donating today ! As always, Cardboard Republic YouTube videos, Instagram pictures, and the BGG Guild are still ongoing.
