All the Games We Played at Spiel Essen 2025 Ranked - Talk Cardboard Version

Just for reference, the population of Klaipėda, the third largest city in Lithuania is approximately 161 000 people. The number of attendees in this year's Spiel Essen was 220 000 people, meaning they managed to cram the entirey of Klaipėda and much more into just eight convention halls and every one of those people were buying board games. I appreciate that that is maybe not everybody's jam, and aspects of it are not our jam either. But getting our mitts into a jar of Bonne Maman filled with gooey new board game releases - put a bib on me and fire up the toaster! In this special joint episode of No Pun Included and Talk Cardboard we cover 16 new releases from Spiel Essen 2025, which you can either listen to here or partake in the video version https://youtu.be/NHVLn-ZxVWs SHIRTS!

Talk Cardboard | Panda Spin, Primates, Tycoon: India 1981

Spinning pandas, evolving primates, and... Capitalism! We have all three for you in this episode - thankfully not all in the same game. We could have had three games about mammals, but we didn't think this through.

Talk Cardboard | Magical Athlete, Identity, Out of Sorts

Only three games this episode? What gives? Well, in the tried and true brand tradition, we decided to go back to our original formula. But no sad trombone noises please - we're really, definitely, honestly going to make it work this time... On this episode, we have Identity - a trick taking game that promises personality, Out of Sorts - a game of inventing a cataloguing system for books in an alien library, and Magical Athlete - a game of racing a banana, a giant baby, and various other quirky things round a track. On to the time stamps: 00:00 Cold open & intro 05:50 Identity 14:16 Out of Sorts 28:57 Magical Athlete 42:03 Correspondence

Talk Cardboard | Brink

There are episodes where we bring as much knowledge as we can about whatever board game we are talking about. And then there are episodes where we just want to share why something didn't click so much that we didn't want to go beyond game one. Apropos of nothing, today we'll be chatting about Brink, a "trading cubes in space" game that conceptually riffs on Catan but in execution whiffs on us. SHIRTS! Find them on https://no-pun-included-shop.fourthwall.com/ On to the time stamps: 00:00 Cold Open & Intro Work in Progress: 2:08 Tenby 7:26 Railroad Tiles 10:42 Rumble Nation 18:53 Winter Rabbit Audience Correspondence: 25:05 Vantage, Neurodivergence in Board Games Main Feature: 31:23 Brink

[PREVIEW] Bonus Talk Cardboard | The Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship

Hey hey hey, how about that Fram and Sodo? How about the Legoloin and the Aragroin? Do you like Grampalf? Are you a fan of Perry and Mippin? I love those guys! They're very fun. Almost as fun as deliberately mistyping the names of famous fantasy franchise characters to pretend like you're cool and above it. Well, we are not above it. We are suckers for Saruman, we sip from the founts of Rivendel, we lick the moss that hobbit feet have trod on, we wish we were half as cool as Farmer Maggot. It's just gonna be full on Lord of the Rings fananza and when the game is as good as Fate of the Fellowship, I mean, why not? Right? Why not indeed.
