Some games are impossible to ignore. Whether it be incredible board art, fun miniatures, or triple layered magnetic player boards, table presence is certainly a big part of the experience of hobby board gaming. Today we will talk about our favorite examples of that.

In addition, we'll share some thoughts on a few recently played games including QE (Quantitative Easing), Heat: Pedal to the Metal, Town Builder Coevorden, My City: Roll & Build, and Isle of Sky.
