Burned is a terrific two-player hidden-movement game. It has a new Gamecrafter campaign that's launching today, and you should absolutely take a look! Here's hoping third time's the charm. And shoutout to @sowronggames.bsky.social for putting it on my radar.

Many new games! INK, Guildlands, No Loose Ends, and more in our new episode! We also talk about tile-laying games, a genre we love. Perhaps most importantly, we address the conclusion of Fat Bear Week.

If your cadence is anything like mine, Olympus will prove a challenge for some runs yet even after Cronos becomes second nature.

Note that Mark erroneously predicted another win for Grazer in Fat Bear Week. She was instead defeated in the semis in a huge shocker! Who will be voted chonkiest boi?

New episodes! We are spoiled for choice in terms of excellent hobbyist trick-taking games, so we talk about some of our recent favourites. Solo, co-op, two-player, what can't trick-taking do?
