So Very Wrong About Games#350: Beyond the HorizonDespite the welcome relative absence of anthropomorphic animals this week--aside from some sundry ducks in Lorcana--we see a lot of animals and various critters this week. We eschew sacrifices to a dodgy snake in Imperium, we fling sheep with abandon, we throw down with some wrestling bugs, and that's on top of comparatively mundane animal husbandry in Keyflower. Mark offered some unflattering comparisons between Walker and various animals during Crokinole, but that doesn't quite count.Games Played Last Week:02:22 -Space Alert (Vlaada Chvátil, Czech Games Edition, 2008)04:58 -Imperium: Horizons (Nigel B...2025-03-0459 minSo Very Wrong About Games#349: A Plowful of GamesWhile we hate to confirm your most reductive of preconceived notions, snow removal in Canadian cities is no joke.

Case in point, dear listeners--The Legend of Korra, a franchise Walker introduced to Mark, is one that Walker loves but--shocker!--is one he has only seen but half of. It is revealed during Mark's unhinged ramblings about he would have "fixed" season 3 that Walker is utterly unfamiliar with what he's talking about, and not for the usual reasons. Masterpiece Theatre will never be the same, and Walker just discovered he's got a lot more episodes of Korra than he thought existed.01:12 AYURIS: Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon...2021-11-091h 20
