A trio of guests join our table.
Bruce Voge stops in for a chat about games based on ideas or topics that seem downright un-gamifiable. Is it possible to game the ungame-able game?
Toy maker and promoter Jason Hsieh tells us about his favorite game, What's the Point, AND... we talk about the toll tariffs are taking on his small business.
Last but not least, Lucio Rodriguez shines the Back Shelf Spotlight on Heroscape, a genre bending battle game with a huge following that has found a second life.
