Mysterium

Mysterium builds heavily on the concept of the party game Dixit. It is a cooperative game in which players, as gathered psychics, must work out the details of an old murder purely from surreal art cards given to them by the silent ghost player.

Episode 137: Past Its Prime Episode 137 Some games are built to last, and no, we’re not just talking about the … R-word.

Before we overstay our welcome, we talk about Sandstone, Ctrl, The Fox in the Forest Duet, and Unmatched.

Episode 96: The House of Bounce Episode 096 Uh oh, you're not enjoying the game you're playing. Now what? Is it okay to excuse yourself?

This week we're talking about scenarios where some or all of the players of a game might decide it's better to bounce than to wallow in misery. Before we make an early exit, we talk about SEAL Team Flix, Paranormal Detectives, and I'm the Boss.

Episode 42: We've Been Co-opted Episode 042 Not everything has to be a competition, because this week we're talking about cooperation.

Before we put our heads together, we also talk about SSH, Just One, and Hamsterrolle.
