Episode 43 - Patchwork

We may have topped ourselves and put out our giggliest episode ever! It's true, we laughed a lot and had a great time exploring the decisions in Uwe Rosenberg's classic Patchwork. This is a game that hides a lot (of negative points) under its adorable (or gruesome - hello Halloween edition) exterior. Don't get it twisted. The game's cute, but to become the Button Master, you'll hash it out in a strategic, no-luck affair. So are these decisions for you, hop into the Interdecisional spaceship and find out!

Preplan Your Next Turn

Next week on Decision Space we explore the decisions in Kingdom Builder!
