At the Table with the Dice Tower.

Episode 64.

All ashore! Welcome to At the Table with the Dice Tower, a podcast about games and the people who play them.

On today's episode, Tom and I are back from the Dice Tower cruise with tales of sun, snow, and board games.

Plus, we dive into the mailbag, and we surface with a new batch of roses, thorns, and hula hoops. I'm Eric Summerer. I'm Julie Erhuring, and I guess I'm not on this episode. No, you get to ask questions. Ooh, all right. And I'm Tom Vassel. I think I'm on the episode. So, anyhow, hey, but you know what?

One thing we will all be at together is Dice Tower West in Las Vegas.

Not only will we be there, you should come to Dyshire West because Grant Lyon's going to be doing his board game comedy show on Friday night.

Ooh, funny stuff. Yeah, yeah, that's... And we'll be doing shows board game comedy show on Friday night. Ooh, funny stuff.

Yeah, yeah, that's, and we'll be doing shows too, so come by and see those.

There's a trick-taking minicon, and a library, it says here, of over 4,600 games, and I have made sure that the hottest games have got into that, something we'll talk about later.

So, yeah, Dice Tower West.

Dice Tower East is in July.

And we got a couple things we're doing differently this year.

If you stay at the resort itself, if you stay at the Karib Royale, you will be getting a hotel swag bag and you don't have to pay resort fees.

So we're going to have some goodies there, a custom Dice Tower East canvas bag, door hanger, and coupons for the exhibit hall.

Wow.

And we're excited about our sponsors, AllPlay, is bringing partnership games and Arcane Wonders will be there with Dice Tower Essentials.

And I'm working on Hot Games even now, folks. It's amazing how hot games works, how they ebb and flow. How hot they can be. Yeah, but I go through the library. You got to use tongs to carry them around. And I look at the games we have two copies of, and after a while I'm like, sad day, they're now going down to a single copy. If that. Well, I don't think I've ever taken two copies down to zero. Okay. If it was hot enough to have two copies, it's going to be hot for, I mean, it's at least can be played for years. Somebody's still going to want to play it. One hopes. I have a theory that if there's a game that only one person likes or a couple people like,

they will eventually bring it at themselves anyway.

Ah, interesting theory.

Well, I'm going to be pulling a game from the library because Eric never plays it.

What is it?
