    Broken Meeple Podcast - Episode 130 - What Makes A Game Truly Replayable?

    My throat is a bit iffy today so a shorter episode sorry, but enough time to talk about 2 small trick taker games, some channel highlights and to discuss what truly makes a game replayable?

    Who Am I?

    One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don't like a game.

    The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure).

    I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos!

    Broken Meeple Podcast - Episode 129 - Are Modern Games Lacking A Personality?

    An interesting debate here, are modern games lacking a personality when compared to classic games? How do you even define personality in a board game?

    Broken Meeple Podcast - Episode 128 - Was I Too Generous?

    Let's play Devil's Advocate and flip the last podcast on its head. Are there games I ranked a 10 previously that perhaps I was too generous with my rating?

    Broken Meeple Podcast - Episode 127 - Can I Forgive These Games?

    Updates, Handycon and then as I'm running out of ideas, let's look at some games that I've rated as low as a 1 in the past and decide whether I'm willing to forgive and raise their ratings up a bit.
