Sparking Joy or Outrage?

Daniel, Mike and Jeff get carried away with segments but eventually discuss what it means to decide what’s important in one’s gaming collection. Will this help our listeners with methods to “tidy up” their collections? Or will it spawn an unending stream of hate mail?

We have a chance to chat up the new InnRoads Plays podcast feed (now featuring the Glass Dagger Season 1). And also Mike’s stint on City on a Hill Gaming as a warforged!

Being Thankful on the Peaks and in the Valleys

Daniel and T.R. bring into focus one of the hardest lesson we learn as people of faith; finding comfort and strength and even thankfulness in the valleys of our lives. And just how do games teach us empathy for the hardest times so we can best appreciate those around us going through them?

Episode 164 – InnRoads Approved Some More Stuff

In this episode – Daniel takes on his first shot to dive into games past and bring out some gems in the archive dive. He surfaces with two dice-related games (I know, surprise surprise) – Machi Koro, and Luchador, and even throws in a bit of his family history as an added bonus.

We also go about the business of announcing not just one, but two new titles that have received our InnRoads Approved seal – our nod to games with biblical and/or church history related themes that are fun and interesting to play regardless of a person’s faith statement or biblical literacy. It’s harder to find those than you’d think.

We’re proud to announce that Unauthorized from Chara Games and Indulgence from Restoration Games have been added to the list. We haven’t talked to anybody at Restoration Games yet, but you can find an interview with Pat Lysaght from Chara Games from when Unauthorized first hit Kickstarter here.

Pat Lysaght and Chara Games are about to unveil a brand new kickstarter for a social deduction game called Unauthorized. A social deduction game set in the underground church. Will you side with the state or the church? Will you change your allegiance? And will you be able to convince the others that they should agree with your decision?

Set to launch around February 7th, we are definitely excited about the potential for this one. You can keep up to date with the kickstarter’s progress by following Chara Games on facebook. You can also hear our previous interview with Pat about Commissioned here.
