In Episode 166 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the gang dives into a mix of worker placement, architecture, victorian horror, and some good old rock and roll.
Our first building block Flat Iron, a 2-player worker placement board game that brings sharp decisions and sizzling tension. Does it have a solid foundation or fall over a dodgy new build. Then we get loud and nostalgic with Rock Hard 1977, a bombastic blend of music, roadies, and 'candy'. It’s all about the rock ‘n roll lifestyle—on a tabletop. Finally, we descend into the dark, arcane world of Candela Obscura, the atmospheric horror RPG from the minds behind Critical Role. We share our thoughts on the setting, the system, and the style—spoiler: we’re intrigued.
So tune in for tabletop tales, chaotic banter, and plenty of opinions, as we navigate another stack of games both weird and wonderful.
