After the multimedia extravaganza that was Episode 100, we keep the fireworks going by inviting first time guest and first time designer Carl Robinson. Carl has designed Kelp, a two-player asymmetrical game that offers players a unique opportunity to delve into the natural world of Pyjama Sharks and Common Octopuses, set in a South African kelp forest. Those were absolutely my words alone, and not a cut and paste from Board Game Geek.
In addition to discussing the story behind that game, Dan, Carl and Mike have a wide ranging conversation that includes, but isn't limited to:
- Dan's impressions of this year's Essen Spiel which he absolutely did not attend.
- Mike and Carl's impressions of this year's Essen Spiel which they absolutely did attend.
- Kendal Mint Cake.
- Urinal Cakes, plus bonus toilet discussion.
- Extra bonus toilet serenades.
- Teaching children how to play Poirot.
- How people in the North of England count sheep.
All of this, plus Dan's Soundtrack game, A Few Acres of Rubbish, and a disgusting amount of board game discussion.
