Description

From Wikipedia:"Boglins were a series of toy puppets distributed by Mattel. They were created by Tim Clarke, Maureen Trotto, and Larry Mass, and licensed by Seven Towns. The original run of Boglins was released in 1987, coinciding with a "creatures" craze that included Ghoulies, Critters, and Gremlins. Boglins were goblin-themed hand puppets made of flexible rubber and could be manipulated to represent speech and facial expressions."Games Played Last Week:01:26 -The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine (Thomas Sing, KOSMOS, 2019)03:38 -Cartographers: A Roll Player Game (Jordy Adan, Thunderworks Games, 2019)05:27 -Res Arcana (Thomas Lehmann, Sand Castle Games, 2019)08:41 -Tribes of the Wind (Joachim Thôme, La Boîte de Jeu, 2022)10:20 -Steam Up: A Feast of Dim Sum (Pauline Kong, Haymen Lee, and Marie Wong, Hot Banana Games, 2023)13:20 -Switch & Signal (David Thompson, KOSMOS, 2020)16:06 -SEAL Team Flix (Pete Ruth & Mark Thomas, WizKids, 2018)18:30 -Star Fighters: Rapid Fire (Michael Dunsmore and Jordan Nichols, Alley Cat Games, 2023)22:10 -For Northwood!

A podcast about all manner of hobby games by Mike Walker and Mark Bigney. Bad games don't go easy on you, so we don't go easy on them. Thorough analysis via reviews, news, and discussion of topics in gaming. We take context seriously, we value your time, and we're not into hype. Just because games are fun doesn't mean we can't take them seriously, and just because we take them seriously doesn't mean we can't have fun.
