Guess what? Our new editor is forcing us to put out episodes at a once-a-month rate (vs. the previous whenever-we-want cadence). We'll see if we can stay disciplined enough to do this for 2018.
This month, three first-person-shooter fans tackle Adrenaline, a board game that simulates arena-based multiplayer shooters like Quake or Unreal Tournament. Does the constant fragging and respawning and fragging again work on the tabletop? The reviewers don't quite agree.... Also, Seanbaby spends a lot of time mocking The Dr. Laura Game. He has a lot to say about this gem! |
What's Going Analog?
A news video series about great board games for video gamers. From game-industry veterans (and ex-EGM alums) Dan "Shoe" Hsu, Seanbaby, and more. What we're playing
Click and buy to help support the show! (See our Top 5 Lists page for more.)   Episode 11's Charterstone is a village-building legacy game that permanently changes as you play it.
  Episode 10's Flip Ships brings back classic arcade shoot-em-up action to your tabletop.
  Episode 9's Mansions of Madness is an app-driven, cooperative board game that is very Resident Evil-y.

  The subject of our pilot episode! Great for fans of X-Com's tactical battles.
  One of our faves from Gen Con 2017, Secrets is a fantastic hidden-roles game for small groups (4-8P).
  Like Risk except good. Mix different races and powers to create unique armies for every match.
  Your dice are spaceships. Roll 'em and place 'em to gather resources, get alien tech, and build colonies.
