Summary
Matt and Paul regroup for a post-festive ramble through the wilderness of sentient cardboard. Paul shares some thoughts on Legacy of Dragonholt and Celestia - which Matt is comedically unable to recall too clearly. Meanwhile, Matt has been toying with the free co-op app for Imperial Assault - and compares his experiences with this to the recently-reviewed Gloomhaven, for your pleasure / horror.
We then talk a little about the shocking phenomenon of fake board games, as covered by Paul in this week's news, and finally cap off the first pod of the year by addressing the hard-hitting issue of S.N.A.C.K.S. Basically, Paul is mildly interrogated about cookies.
Who - in truth - is the real cookie monster? Only the cold hands of time will decide. Thanks for listening!

| 0:49.8 | over the Christmas period. |
| 0:51.7 | You've played one thing in particular, |
| 0:53.1 | which I'm just going to be very mean. I'm going to push you straight into this. Really? Oh, thank you so much. Yeah, |

| 1:05.8 | I've been playing a bunch of a game called Legacy of Dragon Hole. I've been playing, |
| 1:10.5 | this is dreadful, a game that I can't |
| 1:12.5 | remember the name of, but I will have fun describing and someone more intelligent than me will, |
| 1:16.9 | I'm sure in the comments remind me what it is. And I played Celestea for the first time, just the, |
| 1:23.2 | just the other day, which was really good fun. Is that the game that you immediately want to shoot down? No, no, no, no, no. I'm not shoot down. I want to, I want to hear about them. I really, |
| 1:33.6 | really, I'm really excited to hear about Legacy of Dragonholt, as I'm sure lots of listeners are. |
