Back on home turf, we welcome Clayton Gable back from his break and dive into our holiday gift guide, brimming with must-have games and accessories to make any gamer's season truly festive. Clayton shares his newfound love for Fromage, a cheese-making board game that has us all craving more rounds of its delightful worker placement mechanics.
Our gaming adventures continued with a slew of new experiences and mixed feelings. We couldn't resist the allure of deluxe board game components and the fast-paced fun of games like "Super Mega Lucky Box" and "That's Not a Hat" during our family gatherings. The "Star Wars Deck Building Game" expanded our universe, though "Star Wars Villainous" left us pondering its place on our shelves. "Rolling Heights", with its innovative city planning and meeple-chucking mechanics, sparked spirited discussions and contrasting opinions, proving that even beloved games can have divisive elements.
Clay and Travis give some gifting ides for all audiences in OGN's first-ever holiday gift guide! Stocking stuffers, family games, 2-player games, and crunchy strategic games for the Gamers (with a capital "G") in your life!
Beyond the game table, life has been equally thrilling. From theater escapades and life as a "theater dad" to career transitions from the Space Force to software development, our personal stories add a rich layer to this episode. Our European adventures, including the charm of German Christmas markets and culinary tales from Italy, blend with humorous Epcot comparisons, offering a touch of festive cheer. We invite you to join us on this journey filled with gaming insights and personal tales, celebrating both the love for games and life's ever-changing adventures.
