2 player games I've been into during quarantine: Race for the Galaxy (my favorite) Arkham Horror (card game) Disney's Villainous Pandemic There are also a ton of digital versions of board games on steam but I have no idea what ones are good

Deck builders are good times for two players. I really like Ascension, but there's thousands of different ones with different themes and stuff. Wiger should check out the game chess, he's basically a less charismatic Deep Blue so he'd probably be pretty good at it.

My time to shine! Been an avid board gamer for a few years now, but if we're being honest, my group has slacked a bit since one of us had to go have a kid. Recommendations for good games if you want to level up past Monopoly and Clue: Settlers of Catan - usually one of the first games that people are introduced to when they find out about this world. Basic enough for anyone, but a good amount of strategy involved. Ticket to Ride was mentioned in the episode, and is a great starter game. Lords of Waterdeep - this is my favorite game that takes about an hour. You and your opponents run a network of Wizards, Spies, and Nobles in a medieval setting. Worker placement type game with a lot of strategy that gets really intense in the final few rounds. There's also a set number of rounds, which keeps the game going at a good pace and doesnt take forever. Highly recommend this one. Flashpoint: Fire Rescue - a cooperative game where you are fire fighters putting out a burning building and trying to save people and their pets from inside. Camel Up - camel racing in a Egyptian setting. You play as camel racing enthusiasts betting on the outcomes of the race. Very fun, highly recommend. Smaller/cheaper/quicker games: Sushi Go - A deck builder where you try to have the most appetizing meal. love this one, very quick. lots of strategy. Love Letter: a deduction game where you try to guess what characters other people have while keeping your character secret. Each card/role has specific actions which you can use to your advantage, but the actions may give away your role .I LOVE this game. No Thanks! - a game where the point is to have the lowest possible score. The cards are numbered 3-35, you each get 11 tokens that you can use to pass on the current card. if you have no tokens, you are forced to pick up the card, adding to your point total. Each token lowers your score by 1 points at the end of the game. For such a basic game, there is so much strategy involved. I've had a negative score before.

I'm surprised no one has recommended Dungeons & Dragons! I'd love to hear Nick, Mitch, Yusong, and Emma play a little mission or something haha I wondering what they would play as?

my board game recommendation: Talisman! It's a board game from the 80's and it rocks. There's a Talisman: Digital Edition on Steam too and it's awesome. They are continually updating it too

Mitch’s super deep pull of Homers “time/matter” made my wife and I laugh

Truly wild that those Hot Dog on a Stick uniforms are real and not made up for a TV show/movie

Drinks & Daggers! A cooperative, strategy, drinking game created by Greetings Adventurers! podcast. My partner is a big fan and I've only listened a couple times, but still enjoy the world and characters. Also, the drinking mechanism is really clever. Cheers!
