Great List! Maracaibo Pirates & Forrest Shuffle expansion, plus Windmill Valley are tops on my list...
Adding to my GeekList for GenCon. THANKS!
I'm excited for We're Sinking releasing at GenCon! Especially since I learned about it from you guys a year ago!

Nice! I had no idea that would be first in the wild at GEN CON!
I hope you'll also drop by to check out the final version of Star Trek Captain's Chair... We'll have demo copies.

River of Gold is on BGA. I've played it a few times on there and have pre-ordered a physical copy.

David isn’t lying. I can vouch that he carries Nana with him at all times. We ran into each other at Origins and played multiple games!

Board and Dice has a very smooth preorder system on their web site for Gen Con. I used it last year for Barcelona, and I have another preorder for pick up this year.

Great video. One small correction, Panda Panda will be coming out from AllPlay and not 25th Century

Metrorunner does look cool! I'm also excited about the Clank: lairs and lost Chambers expansion.

Clank! Catacombs expansion could have easily been on this list. We just had to cut it down a bit, but I'll definitely want to get a copy of that.

The hacking puzzle in MetroRunner is what hooked me on the game.
Doggerland looks interesting, I haven’t seen an English playthrough of it yet though, it should be at GenCon I think.

I'll be looking for that one. I saw that it was going to be there, and didn't know anything about it.
If Play to Z is at GenCon, check out Lynx at their booth. I played (and purchased) this one at Origins. A real gem of a game that's not getting nearly enough attention right now. Highly Recommend!

I didn't get it played before recording this, but NOW! from Scorpion Masque (Hachette) is fantastic fun! We played it 4 times in a row our first go. This will be the little card game that I'm advocating most at the con for sure. If you see me, and want to try it, just ask. I'll have it with me.
We are so excited for Looot!!

I got to play ROCK HARD: 1977 recently. Production is top notch. Rules are fairly sImple. Gameplay-wise, I'd say it's clearly on the lighter side of the spectrum. Super fun, thematic and with a lot of variability. Can't wait to play it again.

That description sounds about like what I expected. Probably won't set the world on fire for more medium to heavy gamers, but I love a euro-y game with a lot of good theme.
Cat Poker is a fun little game

Yeah, I'm not really a fan. I love music, but not while doing something I want to concentrate on. I'm the same way on the disc golf course. I really don't like it when a nearby group is carrying around loud music with them. 😅
Whatever happened to Chit Chat? Will that ever come back? Or a new format in similar vibe?
@meeple

Chit Chat will be back for sure. We've been having a lot of people ask about it lately. We put it on hiatus at the beginning of 2024, and we hope to bring it back (better than ever) before the end of the year. We're considering an adjusted format, and some other surprises too!
