#257 - Big Buildings, Bigger Creatures
On this terrifyingly tall episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Matt and Tom are checking out some games with BIG THINGS in ‘em! Skyrise is the latest from Brass: Brum publishers Roxley Games and has you making great stinkin’ scrapers, and Leviathan Wilds from new publisher Moon Crab Games gets us climbing the backs of crusty creatures. It’s a good pair of games!
Have a great weekend, everybody!

#256 - Iron/Wood and Un/Daunted!
On this VGA-Compliant episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are chatting about two excellent asymmetric games they’ve been dabbling with recently! First up is Ironwood - a game where wood and metal collide in a Root-Lite frenzy of asymmetric squabbling - followed by Undaunted 2200: Callisto - the newest, most lunar entry into the Undaunted series!
Have a great weekend!

#255 - Dragons & Demolitions
On this rambling, tangient-rich episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Pip chat Wings and Wyrms in a creature feature on Wyrmspan! Then, we take a break from the hotness to discuss an old classic that Tom was bored to tears by; Roborally.
Have a great weekend!

#254 - Dungeons & Directors
On this freshly sloganed episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Emily huddle around the boardgame campfire to tell tales about games of old. Or new. They’re all new games and I’ve wasted this pastoral image in an unfitting manner. Too late now! Nobody reads these descriptions and I’ve got stuff to do! We’ve gotta get going!
On this podcast we talk about Kinfire Chronicles: Nights Fall, Hollywood 1947, and Vampire Village - a fine crop of funky boards.
Have a great weekend!

#253 - batteries.
On this battered episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Matt are making batteries in Salton Sea, eating batteries in After Us, and getting battered in Dobro! It’s the battery special, officially sponsored by Duracell and the horrible bunny that we all hate.
Have a great weekend, everybody!

#252 - Just Two Players, Looking For A Third
On this mildly unhinged episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down Podcast, Tom and Emily are taking on a double-bill of two player games followed by a BIG CHUNKY BOX. First up is Quacks of Quedlinburg: The Duel - a two-player only version of the bag-busting (sorry) classic! We then chat about the ying to Quacks’ yang in the highly-tactical time-bending fish-em-up Fisheries of Gloucester! Finally, we chat about Bloodstones - a divisive strategy game that Tom bravely defends and recklessly batters.
It’s a good pod! We had a lot of fun! I hope you can tell!
Have a great weekend, everybody!
