    126 Devon Dice Podcast, May board game News Show

    Joel and Nick bring you a long overdue podcast with sad news, controversial news, and outstanding news, plus Crowdfunding projects, played games, and a little rant from Joel. Episode 126 Sorry for the massive gap between podcasts. New podcast feed host Joel and Claire’s trip to London and Draughts board game café Tucana Builders News Meeples Corner, the lovely FLGS in Crediton, is to close at the end of the month. Wonders of the First, a CCG on Kickstarter using all-AI-art, is made to cancel (by Kickstarter themselves) because of using NFTs.

The Ultimate Cooperative Deduction and Survival Game. Ends 14th May (2 days’ time!) House of Fado, a new game from Vital Lacerda.

Ends 1st June Coming Soon Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle Earth – announced by Asmodee, as a rethemed implementation of 7 Wonders Duel.  Will be available for demo at UKGE. Black Forest, a sequel to Uwe Rosenberg’s Glass Road, is due for release this year.
