AireCon 2025, Daybreak, and Tales from the Loop - Ep220

It’s a bumper episode, so let’s get straight into it: we played so many games and saw so much stuff at AireCon, so Ep220 is all about it. There’s dexterity push-you-luck Strike, Witcher spin-off Gwent: The Legendary Card Game, the gorgeous Australis, nostalgic Divide & Conker, and smile-inducing board games like G.R.I.M. INC. and Things in Rings. And Fishing. And new hotness Daybreak. And incredible paints from Two Thin Coats. AND one of our favourite RPG experiences ever in The Ghost and Tales from the Loop.

All that, and even more AireCon miracles, on Ep220.
