Episode 352: Botswana, Exit: Advent Calendar, Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done - Divine Influence

Join Conor, Lauren and Adrian as they ring in the new year with a whole lot of new games. Adrian recalls his experience with the Exit Advent Calendar - the experience really opened some doors for him. Conor really embraces the theme of Crusaders as he focuses on expansion, giving a Devine take with Crusaders: Thy Will Be Done - Divine Influence. Lauren is playing a delightfully simple game that makes her want to gabber on, nay, sing, with Botswana.

Then we round of with a very spirited question of the pod discussion, and finish off with what has us fired up!

Question of the Pod: What games would you like to see at Play Con, and why would you like to see them there?
