Episode 294 – BGG Hotness – October 2020

This week we’re looking at another batch of games on the fall release radar from BoardGameGeek’s preview list. It’s the final pre-Essen hotness!

But first, we discuss our question of the week: What’s your spooky game of choice for the Halloween season?

In acquisition disorders this week, Anthony looks at the Princess Bride Adventure Book – is it any good? And Chris looks at Untamed: Feral Factions – Spirit Strike Edition, on Kickstarter right now.

At the table this week, Anthony reviews Aqualin, a quick two-player abstract game from Kosmos, and Chris reviews BILDER, a recently released Kickstarter project with a clever premise. 

And then in our feature, we look at 15 games from the Fall Preview list on BoardGameGeek – in addition to the 25 we covered in September.
