Episode 135 – Top 10 Race Games

On this week’s episode, Chris and Anthony are looking at 10 games that have unique end-game conditions. Whoever gets their first! We’re talking about games built around a race – to build something, reach a destination, or achieve something first.

In addition, we ask the listeners whether they prefer photographs or poorly made artwork in our question of the week, then dive into acquisition disorders, including Cerebria: The Inside World, now on Kickstarter, and a pair of expansions for very popular euros – The Companions of Marco Polo and Lorenzo il Magnifico: Houses of Renaissance.

At the table this week, Anthony reviews Master of Orion: The Board Game from Cryptozoic, and Chris looks and Down Force and Magic Maze, all recent hot releases this summer.
