Summary

In this panoramic episode of the Shut Up & Sit Down podcast, Matt and Tom are back in action, ready to talk about a little heap of cardboard that’s been growing in the corner over the festive break; it grows a little every time you look away, and we’re hiring someone to take care of it.

On this podcast you can hear about the ever-rolling Dice Realms, the ever-sinking Atlantis Rising (2nd Edition) and the ever-expensive Q.E. A bunch of games that we’re keen on, but not… that keen on. Wahoo!

Have a lovely weekend, folks!

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to the very one hundred and sixty-seventh episode of the Shut Up and Sit Down podcast, a podcast all about board games and board games and board games. My name is Tom Brewster
0:25.4	and I am joined today by the one, the only, the very, the bountiful, Matthew Lees. There's only one
0:31.2	of me available today and I'm 100% here. You're 100% there's the audience. Absolutely. For this next gap of time, I am in your ears exclusively.
0:41.3	I am 100% yours like a little goblin talking to you and only you.
0:47.3	So please enjoy this session of me and Tom here just for you to talk about board games. Matt is a little goblin in your left ear.
0:57.1	I'm a little goblin in your right ear. We've both got a tiny, tiny speaking trumpet and we're
1:01.0	projecting words directly into your brain. If we have mixed the podcast like that, then I'm sorry,
1:06.4	it will be awful to listen to. Here is a sample of what it would be like. Hello, I'm in this ear.
1:12.2	Hi, I'm in this ear and I'm speaking to you and only you on the right. Did we pick,
1:17.5	am I the right hand side? I don't know. I'm in the other one, whichever we're in. But we're
1:20.5	stopping that now because it's really bad. On this podcast, we're going to talk about three games that we've been playing recently.
1:30.0	I am going to talk about dice realms, a game about making a little realm with dice.
1:34.8	Matt's going to be talking about Atlantis Rising, which is, I think, a game about Atlantis sinking.
1:39.1	Yeah, it doesn't make it, yeah, no.
1:41.1	We'll get to that later.
1:42.2	And I'm also going to be talking about QE, a game about printing infinite money.
1:47.1	Let's do a podcast. First up on this podcast, we're going to talk about a game called Dice Realms. This is published by Rio Grande Games and isn't technically out yet.
1:59.7	It's still coming soon on their website,
2:01.7	but it's the latest game from Tom Lerman, who you may know from Race and Roll for the Galaxy
2:07.0	and Res Arcana. What this is is a dice-building game, a game where the dice that you are
2:13.6	rolling throughout can be customized by popping off their little faces and replacing them
2:18.7	with better ones. So your roles get progressively chunkier throughout the game.
