Timing is everything, which is why it’s so important that this episode came out when it did. Had we made it too early, it would have felt dated, and any later, you wouldn’t have been ready for it. Before it’s about time, we talk about Planet etuC, Undaunted: Stalingrad, Undaunted: Battle of Britain, and Tycoon: India 1981.
Are we living in a golden age of board games? It’s a simple question, but there’s a lot to unpack – what even qualifies as a golden age, have we already had one, and if we are living in one, when does it end? Before we go for gold, we talk about That’s Not a Hat, Pulsar 2849, and Barrage.
If there’s one thing I can say for sure about 2023, it’s that it will certainly be a period of time. We’re casting our eyes forward to the year ahead, and getting excited about some of the board games that (we hope) will actually be coming. Before we look ahead, always ahead, we talk about Make the Difference, German Railways, and Tiletum.
