In Show 27.0 of Gameopolis, Mark and Jeff revisit a topic not discussed since way-back in Show 6.0: Filler Games! Before launching into tho second installment of our Fillers discussion, Jeff opens up a Dusty Old Box that he describes as a familiar game in an unfamiliar box. Confused? Intrigued? Then this show will set your mind at ease! Our discussion of this Dusty Old Box reminds Mark of another tidbit of Mark's Personal Gaming Trivia --a very humorous incident from his past gaming group-of-old. After the Dusty Old Box and Mark's Personal Gaming Trivia segments, Mark and Jeff discuss eight Filler Games, that we hope you'll enjoy. Lastly, at NO ADDITIONAL COST to you, we throw in a bonus segment on Gamewick Games' zombie-themed semi-cooperative card game, Pittsburgh 68. Jeff describes the things he loves about this old-style zombie movie experience. We'd love to hear from you, so if you get a moment, please post a comment to this blog entry (at www.gameopolis.org or gameopolis.libsyn.com), or send us an email at info@gameopolis.org! 00:00:00 Prelude 00:03:00 Dusty Old Box 00:10:35 Mark's Personal Gaming Trivia 00:13:58 Carcassonne Dice Game 00:19:30 Babylon 00:26:28 Quoridor 00:33:04 Fast Flowing Forest Fellers (FlussFeiber) 00:39:57 Wits & Wagers 00:49:56 Safari Jack 00:58:03 The Very Clever Pipe Game 01:03:13 Guillotine 01:11:25 Pittsburgh 68 01:32:50 Signoff Related links: 1 Carcassonne Dice Game on Boardgamegeek 2 Babylon on Boardgamegeek 3 Quoridor on Boardgamegeek 4 Fast Flowing Forest Fellers on Boardgamegeek 5 Wits & Wagers on Boardgamegeek 6 Safari Jack on Boardgamegeek 7 The Very Clever Pipe Game on Boardgamegeek 8 Guillotine on Boardgamegeek 9 Pittsburgh 68 on Boardgamegeek Stay tuned for Show 27.5 --our session report on one or more of these filler games-- coming at you faster than a game of Babylon!
