006: Teaching and Learning Games

Episode 6

The best way to get people excited for gaming is to teach them games, but there are many different ways to go about it.  The Out of Space crew talks about their teaching methods, a recent convention experience where we demoed games, and talk a little about our own gaming journey.  Some games we discuss in the episode are Hive, HeroClix, D&D Attack Wing, Boss Monster, Guns of Gettysburg, along with some gaming news and Kickstarter projects.  Thanks for listening!

We cover games such as Legendary Encounters: An Alien Deck Building Game from Upper Deck, Stay Away! from Escape Studios, Game of Thrones LCG from Fantasy Flight Games, Resident Evil DBG from Bandai, Inception Solo PNP, and many more.  Thanks for listening!
