Episode 13: The one about our top 10 2-player games

We're back for Episode 13, the luckiest of all podcast numbers!

In this episode, we give our respective top 10 games (in no particular order, of course!) to play when we just have two people at the table. This is in the spirit of our 2-player review segment, but includes 2-player only games in addition to those games that we think play exceptionally well with two.

The list is split into two halves: The first half consists of games that we chose that did not overlap; and the second half are games that we both chose for our lists (and combine their discussions).

Enjoy!
