PATREON MEET-UPS FOR THE NRB TOUR!

Hey Nerbs!

Tour week is upon us and we're super excited to see you all there.

We wanted to list some of our favourite gaming bars/cafes as potential pre-show meetup spots for our lovely patreon community - in case you folks fancied getting together beforehand to hang out and support your local gaming spot.

Manchester - We suggest NQ64. While not being board gaming focused, its a great nerdy spot that's 15 min walk from the venue. 2024-10-10 13:00:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Let's Play MYSTERIUM PARK - UNCUT

Hey NeRBs,

Dom is a g-g-ghost, this week for Mysterium Park!

Are you surprised he was murdered? No - it makes absolute sense. He bullies everyone.

We love to hate him and we hate that we love him so much.

We have played Mysterium on the channel, an earlier and more imposing version of Mysterium Park. However, the game play remains similar. Ghost is dead. Ghost gives you dream cards to find killer. Ghost is avenged... Unless you're playing wiTH FOOLS WHO DON'T UNDE...

Let's Play Fury of Dracula - UNCUT

Hey NeRBs,

For the first week of spooky month, we play FURY OF DRACULA!

Bleh Bleh Bleh I want to drink your blood!

If you like games like Whitehall Mystery then this will be your jam! It's a hidden movement game where players will be hunting Dracula through Europe.

We also welcome Chris Grace on Board Game Club for the first time! We were lucky that he was on our side of the sea during summer. You may have seen him in our Live Clocktower episode - if you haven't, go ...

Living On A Prayer | Patreon Exclusive

Hey NeRBs,

We've got a special guest for this episode of Clocktower. You may have seen her for Season 2 of BOTC Live - it's BECCA SCOTT everybody!

This month, our lovely cast is playing Trouble Brewing On Expert Mode. Surely, ours folks must be experts by now.

Let's Play SO CLOVER! - UNCUT

Her NeRBs,

For this new edition of Board Game Club we welcome back Matt Edmondson on the show!

So Clover! is one of those games which really teaches you about how others think and brings you closer together... or not.

Good luck Matt!

Enjoy!

Let's Play MAGIC: THE GATHERING COMMANDER - UNCUT

Hey NeRBs,

Loads of you commented on our first MTG video about wanting to see the COMMANDER format and here it is.

Our cast is playing with the Bloomburrow Peace Offering deck, the Outlaws of Thunder Junction Grand Larceny deck, The Murders at Karlov Manor Deadly Disguise deck and the Wilds of Eldraine Fae Dominion deck.

Let's Play Wandering Towers - Uncut

Hey NeRBs,

I actually have two amusing anecdotes about Wandering Towers (hello, it is I, Teri) for a little Story Time!

This game has had lovely reviews online and I was very interested by its table presence for the channel. The towers STACK UP! You get it, I NEEDED IT! And also I thought it would be great for the channel but also MIIIINE!

I thought the UK Games Expo would be the perfect place to find it. However, going up to the expo for work meant I got very little time ...
