JR Plays JR Honeycutt

This week I played The Networks, Mexica, more Mechs vs. Minions, a bunch of party games, and jumped back into mobile gaming with the Star Realms iOS app!

Light spoilers! Mechs vs. Minions and Charterstone both begin by immediately unlocking content, so anything you hear is technically a spoiler. If you're ok with knowing just a little bit about each, go ahead!

I spent the weekend at the Stonemaier Games Design Day in St. Louis, and got in gaming with Cody from Waitress Games and our friend Melissa. Lots of new stuff, including a long talk about Secret Hitler - as a game, as an experience, and as it's compared to The Resistance.
