Episode 20: Let's talk about dex

Whose Turn Is It Anyway?

Rob steps off the iron "first player" throne and explores the world of dexterity games within the hobby and why they are just so accessible for gamers.

FIRST PLAYER: Rob
OTHER PLAYERS: Ian, Kris & JP
OVERVIEW
In this weeks episode, Rob steps down as first player in his final run to talk all about dexterity games and why they are so accessible for everyone. Also Rob runs us through the groups particular favourites. In this episode you'll learn:
- that the group really can't tell their left from their right in Wavelength
- Kris' preparation for Twilight Imperium 4th edition is unmatched
- JP is gutted after a shocking performance at the last game night
- There's such a thing as streaking subbuteo models (apparently - there's no source to validate this)
- about the dexterity games we play such as Carooka, Crokinole, Flick 'em Up!, Kubb, Mölkky, Cornhole, FlickFleet, Klask and much more
- That Rob hands the first player token back to JP who returns in Episode 21
