#179: Ignorance Is Bliss - a podcast by Board Game Barrage
from 2021-06-24T00:30:29
Sometimes it's best not to know, right? You've just played a game, and you liked it a lot, but you're not quite sureĀ whether that faction is quite balanced, or the designers accounted for that winning strategy. Should you find out? Or is it better just to enjoy the game on its own merits? Before we disobey our thirst for knowledge, we talk about Genoa, Durian, The Search for Planet X, and Pavlov's House.
