Tom hosts a solo podcast on the board game Azul,' a tile-laying game he frequently recommends for families during the Christmas season. He discusses the game's abstract nature and notes its modern board game appeal, particularly for family play. Tom delves into the cultural history of the azulejos, Portuguese decorative tiles, which inspired 'Azul.' He explains the game mechanics, strategic depth, and why it is accessible yet complex, making it enjoyable for both casual and seasoned gamers. Additionally, he touches on the issue of counterfeit versions of the game and mentions a travel-friendly version called 'Azul Mini.'
