After a short hiatus, Episode 22 is upon us!
Jeff is in Canada, and we're recording remotely. In this episode, we talk about what we've been up to (Patchwork, Twilight Imperium, Codenames: Deep Undercover, and more), get into some news involving Werewords and Pandemic Legacy Season 2. We wrap things up by talking about games that give you good direction right from the start, how we might update Splendor (in the context of its new Expansion), and the power of house rules.
