#290: Stuck in the Mid With You

Are board games stuck? Not to be dramatic or anything, but it does seem like we keep circling the same ideas over and over again, right? We speculate on where we think the hobby is headed, and whether or not it needs a shake up. Before we plateau, we talk about Orchard, Hadrian's Wall, Terracotta Army, and Santiago.

Timecodes:

03:09 - Orchard: A 9 card solitaire game
06:49 - Hadrian's Wall
13:45 - Terracotta Army
24:34 - Santiago
35:45 - Board game stagnation
38:17 - Return to Dark Tower
41:55 - Mr. President: The American Presidency, 2001-2020
43:55 - Turing Machine
44:09 - Cryptid
45:59 - Dead Reckoning
50:37 - Stationfall
