    Episode 2: Our Top 10 “New to Me” Games of 2025, with Kimberly from Tabletop Tolson

    In this episode, I kick it with Kimberly from Tabletop Tolson. We gush about our favorite games we played in 2025 that weren't released in 2025. Considering we're both omni-gamers, we had a laughter-filled chat about a diverse group of awesome games. Sadly, I realized after the fact, that I skipped over mentioning Argent: The Consortium (?!?!) in my top 10. **facepalm** ...but we did at least put "new" games on each others' radars. Hope you enjoy the episode!  Thanks so much for listening! 00:00:00 Introduction00:01:16 Firstimer BGG@SEA Twinsies!00:06:32 Fresh Plays00:07:11 Blood on the Clocktower00:13:08 Super Auto Pets Card Battle (also mentioned Challengers & Tag Team)00:23:52 Lords of Baseball00:28:07 Super Mega Lucky Box00:32:50 Our Top 10 "New to Me" Games of 202500:36:31 Kimberly's Honorable Mentions (Knarr, Nature, Sanctuary)00:44:56 Candice's Honorable Mentions (Don Quixote: The Ingenious Hidalgo, Blue Moon Legends, Escape from the Aliens in Outer Space, Not Alone, Yunnan, Thunder Alley)00:54:54 Confusing Lands00:57:15 The Witcher: Old World01:01:41 The Fellowship of the Ring: Trick-Taking Game01:05:15 ito01:09:07 Neko Syndicate01:12:32 Tales of the Arthurian Knights01:16:30 Spirits of the Wild: Awakening01:19:36 The Defence of Procyon III01:24:16 ERA01:28:23 The LOOP01:30:40 Age of Galaxy01:34:42 Imperium the Contention01:36:57 The Anarchy01:40:06 Leaving Earth01:43:40 Obsession: Characters01:47:57 Iwari01:53:00 Ticket to Ride Legacy: Legends of the West01:56:16 Primal: The Awakening01:34:06 TEMBO: Survival on the Savanna02:05:39 Black Rose Wars: Rebirth02:12:57 Sign-offThanks so much for listening and for your support!
