Sprites And Dice Podcast

After watching every single E3 conference of 2018, contributors Otto and Wyatt have a lot to say. What games do we have coming out in the next year? Which games are the ones we should look forward to? Can we trust the people who put on these conferences? Listen in to hear their thoughts!

Here are two great survival games that look very similar - on paper. Don't worry though, once you log in to either, you'll see where the magic is. Dauntless is a PC game that just hit open beta, and it hopes to take on the legendary Monster Hunter franchise. It's a tough order to fill, but the brand new game does have a few things already going for it: a beautiful world, some very fun combat, and gameplay that really encourages you to find a group of friends to play with. Eden Rising, in comparison, is all about taking that group co-operation and turning it up to 11. It's you and your tribe of up to 7 others, on your own private server.

Your mind probably doesn't jump immediately to the idea that there is money to be made from illegally printing off cardboard and little wooden pieces. Yet, thanks to some great interviews and articles from the last several months, we have come to understand that the board game community has become a victim of its own success. Wherever there is money, there are people who want to find a quicker way to get that same cash. While everyone likes a good deal on a game, we suddenly find ourselves in a new situation: should we be nervous when we see a game over 50% off? When you open up your new game of Ticket to Ride, and many of the pieces seem to be missing, or the manual is printed without several pages, is there a chance you've been ripped off? Fortunately, we spend some time in this episode talking about two new favorite games of ours in the last few months, Entropy: Worlds Collid
