Episode 55.2 - Science Games, Part 2

The Ascent of Board Games

We're back with even more SCIENCE! The nerdery continues as we discuss more recent science-themed board games, and offer such tidbits as:

• "BoardGameGeek - full of lies." - Joe Streeky, 2023
• A brief digression on the interior starship lighting design of Picard season 3.
• The cards in Space Race mix English and iconography, but for why?
• The overarching threat of an all-Phil Eklund episode
• Frank's last minute addition this month is Expedition Zetta, with space exploration plus intrigue and romance!

Thanks as always for listening! If you have a few extra minutes and are willing to help us with our scientific research, we're trying to study the effects of an iTunes review on our number of listeners. Please leave one if you can!

We'd also love to have you visit our website and let us know what kinds of games we should discuss next. You're also more than welcome to comment on the episode page, or our Facebook page, or tag @ascentofgames on Twitter (for as long as Twitter still exists). Whatever way you prefer to share your opinions with us, we'd love to hear them. As always, we appreciate your listening - stay safe out there!
