EVERY ROLL, DEAL, AND TURN TELLS A STORY—WHAT’S YOURS?

Episode 7: Let’s Talk Legacy Games

This week on WeAreBoard Podcast, our WAB THOUGHTS are all about legacy games. What are they, how do they work, and how do we really feel about them? From emotional highs to sticker-regret lows, we’re unpacking what makes these campaign-style experiences so memorable and polarizing.

In our SPOTLIGHT of the WEEK, we take a brief detour from the tabletop to dive into the mind-bending TV show Severance. Fair warning—spoilers abound—so if you haven’t watched it yet, you may want to hold off or skip ahead. We’re talking theories, themes, and why it has such strong appeal for board gamers.

And yes, the BG HYPE Train is still rolling strong, with new titles, exciting expansions, and a few unexpected drops to keep your wishlist growing.
