    Halls of Hegra, Inferno, and Pendragon

    Episode 181 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast is pure hell. We kick off lent by stuffing our face with pancakes, before living through the hell of a Nazi invasion in Halls of Hegra, a solo WWII survival game full of tension and tough decisions. We then descend into actual Hell in Inferno, a heavy euro-style board game about shepherding souls to the nine circles of hell and becoming the best accuser. Finally, we attempt to redeem ourselves as we become just and noble knights, as we explore the Pendragon RPG starter set.   And don't forget—you can join the discussion over on our [Discord server]!     Podcast Contents 00:00:00 Intro banter and pancakes 00:05:37 Airecon 2026 https://www.airecon.co.uk/ 00:06:35 Sir Coates Painting Masters https://www.ukgamesexpo.co.uk/whats-on/show/sir-coates-painting-masters-2025/ 00:07:56 Kienda and review copies 00:14:52 Halls of Hegra 00:25:11 Inferno 00:42:38 Pendragon RPG starter Set   ⭐Show Sponsor: Tabletop Dominion For a 10% discount at Tabletop Dominion (the amazing makers of the dice cubes), go to tabletopdominion.com/POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER or use the code POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER at checkout 👥Follow Us on Social Media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PolyhedronCollider Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polyhedroncollider Threads: https://www.threads.net/@polyhedroncollider 🎧The latest episode is available to listen on the following pod-cast services: iTunes -  https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-polyhedron-collider-cast/id1087398150  Spotify -  https://open.spotify.com/show/1rAPFNc5rE6JURNYakNzA3  Amazon - https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/eba45bc5-0a1d-493c-bbbd-024fe5714147/the-polyhedron-collider-cast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@polyhedroncollider  Player FM -  https://player.fm/series/the-polyhedron-collider-cast  Podbay -  http://podbay.fm/show/1087398150  Or you can add the http://polyhedroncollider.libsyn.com/rss Polyhedron Collider Cast RSS feed to your favourite podcast player  Intro and Outro Music: "Ouroboros" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).

    Episode 180 - 10 Year Anniversary and Our Favourite Games

    It's been 10 years since Steve, Jon and Andy sat round a table after a few beers and recorded the very first episode of the Polyhedron Collider Cast. In the past 10 years we've reviewed hundreds of board games and tabletop roleplaying games, brought on two new hosts (Rory and Sid) and recorded nearly 200 episodes of ramshackle gaming nonsense. To celebrate we decided to revisit our favourite games of all time, the games we constantly want to play. So here's to another 10 years! Let us know which games your favourite game over on our [Discord server]!     Podcast Contents 00:00:00 Welcome and banter 00:04:23 Mansions of Madness: Second Edition 00:08:05 Nemesis, Nemesis: Lockdown, and Nemesis: Retaliation 00:15:48 Pandemic and Pandemic: Legacy 00:22:12 Dungeons & Dragons 00:28:48 7 Wonders Duel 00:32:38 Secret Identity and Stomp the Plank 00:41:16 Trickerion: Legends of Illusion 00:47:34 Star Wars: Rebellion 00:53:20 Galaxy Trucker 00:57:28 Ark Nova 01:02:18 Coriolis: The Third Horizon 01:11:28 Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game and Unfathomable 01:18:30 Kingdom Death: Monster 01:25:15 Tony Towns 01:27:55 Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon   ⭐Show Sponsor: Tabletop Dominion For a 10% discount at Tabletop Dominion (the amazing makers of the dice cubes), go to tabletopdominion.com/POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER or use the code POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER at checkout 👥Follow Us on Social Media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PolyhedronCollider Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polyhedroncollider Threads: https://www.threads.net/@polyhedroncollider 🎧The latest episode is available to listen on the following pod-cast services: iTunes -  https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-polyhedron-collider-cast/id1087398150  Spotify -  https://open.spotify.com/show/1rAPFNc5rE6JURNYakNzA3  Amazon - https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/eba45bc5-0a1d-493c-bbbd-024fe5714147/the-polyhedron-collider-cast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@polyhedroncollider  Player FM -  https://player.fm/series/the-polyhedron-collider-cast  Podbay -  http://podbay.fm/show/1087398150  Or you can add the http://polyhedroncollider.libsyn.com/rss Polyhedron Collider Cast RSS feed to your favourite podcast player  Intro and Outro Music: "Ouroboros" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).

    Vantage, Covenant, The Druids of Edora, and Nemesis Retaliation

    To support Movember go to https://uk.movember.com/ In Episode 177 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the lads dive into four wildly different games—ranging from cinematic sci-fi terror to cosy druidic engine-building—with all the usual banter, questionable metaphors, and unsolicited opinions. We start at high altitude with Vantage, the new epic story based exploration game from Jamey Stegmaier and Stonemaier Games. Can we finally have a Stonemaier game that Andy actually likes? We then travel over the Misty Mountains and go full diggy diggy hole in Covenant from Devir, a worker placement game that is tight on actions and full of theme. Things then become calmer (and significantly greener) as we explore The Druids of Edora—a colourful, dice placement game from Stefan Feld. And finally, we head directly into the vents with our smart rifles ready to rock for Nemesis: Retaliation, the latest addition to Awaken Realms' survival-horror series. Expect panic, betrayal, epic alien encounters, and a weirdly sexy alien.

  8. Malediction, Wroth, Canal Houses, Steam Power, White Castle Duel and Bladerunner RPG

    2025/11/11

    Malediction, Wroth, Canal Houses, Steam Power, White Castle Duel and Bladerunner RPG

    To support Movember go to https://uk.movember.com/ In Episode 176 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the lads tackle a monster lineup of games covering curses, canals, castles, and cyberpunk chaos. From deep Euros to dicey duels and dystopian roleplay, it's a feast of cardboard, neon and noodles. Hot from our painting challenge, we start with dark rituals and wicked words of Malediction in this spell-slinging game of grimdark miniature combat. Then it's onto Wroth, the latest offering from Chip Theory games; a dice pool area control game that full of neon colours. Things calm down (sort of) with the charming card game Canal Houses, all about building along the waterways of Amsterdam. Beautifully thematic, deeply puzzly, and wetter than a typical UK summer. Next up, we turn the dials and stoke the engines in Steam Power, a game that puts logistics and efficiency at the heart of its design—perfect for anyone who loves their cubes neatly aligned. But we can't help feel we've played it before. And in The White Castle Duel, Two players enter the castle, one player leaves (hopefully with honour intact). We test the head-to-head version of The White Castle and see if it captures the elegance and crunch of the original. Finally, we step into the neon rain for the Blade Runner RPG withe the second case file Fiery Angels, diving into a world of mystery, moral choices, and melancholy monologues. Expect less shooting, more brooding. And don't forget—you can join the discussion over on our [Discord server]!     Podcast Contents 00:07:15 Malediction 00:14:15 Wroth 00:25:00 Canal Houses 00:30:12 Steam Power 00:40:52 Terra Mystica 00:43:15 The White Castle Duel 00:51:45 Blade Runner RPG: Case File 02 - Fiery Angels   For a 10% discount at Tabletop Dominion (the amazing makers of the dice cubes), go to tabletopdominion.com/POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER or use the code POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER at checkout ⭐Show Sponsor: Kienda When you sign up to an account with Kienda use this link to bag yourself a wee discount and help support the show.  Let's face it, you were going to buy a board game anyway 😉 👥Follow Us on Social Media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PolyhedronCollider Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polyhedroncollider Threads: https://www.threads.net/@polyhedroncollider 🎧The latest episode is available to listen on the following pod-cast services: iTunes -  https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-polyhedron-collider-cast/id1087398150  Spotify -  https://open.spotify.com/show/1rAPFNc5rE6JURNYakNzA3  Amazon - https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/eba45bc5-0a1d-493c-bbbd-024fe5714147/the-polyhedron-collider-cast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@polyhedroncollider  Player FM -  https://player.fm/series/the-polyhedron-collider-cast  Podbay -  http://podbay.fm/show/1087398150  Or you can add the http://polyhedroncollider.libsyn.com/rss Polyhedron Collider Cast RSS feed to your favourite podcast player  Intro and Outro Music: "Ouroboros" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).
