Episode 173 – Pax Pamir, Fate of the Fellowship, Sengoku, Ink & a Dash of Cthulhu
9/7/2025

Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
In Episode 173 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we’re knee-deep in intrigue, fellowship, feudal battles, and… calligraphy? That’s right, we’ve got a varied lineup of games to talk about, and plenty of banter to go with it. As always, expect a healthy mix of strategy talk, tangents, and the usual Collider nonsense.
Sid & the Call of Cthulhu Live
Sid takes a detour from the tabletop to Edinburgh, where he experienced a live Call of Cthulhu performance. Expect tales of eldritch horror, theatrical madness, and perhaps one or two sanity checks.
Pax Pamir
We revisit Cole Wehrle’s masterpiece of politics, shifting alliances, and fragile empires in 19th century Afghanistan. Is it still as brilliant—and brutal—as we remember?
The Lord of the Rings: Fate of the Fellowship
Middle-earth gets a fresh spin in this new take on Tolkien’s epic. We explore whether it captures the tension, the drama, and the journey of the Fellowship (with fewer second breakfasts).
General Orders: Sengoku Jidai
Two players, one board, and a battle for feudal Japan. From the minds behind Undaunted, this tight tactical skirmish impressed us with its elegance and depth.
Ink
A light pattern game that’s quick to teach but surprisingly tricky to master. Perfect for when your brain’s fried after too much Pax Pamir.

Episode 172 - Altay, Ponzi Scheme, Gwent, Burnt Moon, and Compile
8/17/2025
In Episode 172 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we share our highlights from PeachCon (and meeting Chris Peach from Peachy Tips) while diving into Altay, Ponzi Scheme, Gwent, Burnt Moon, and Compile—all with the usual mix of board game chat and Collider nonsense.
Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
In Episode 172 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the lads return fresh from PeachCon, where they finally got to meet the legend himself—Chris Peach of Peachy Tips—and, naturally we've played a mountain of games since last episode.
This episode is jam-packed with board game reviews - as we discuss deck building area control on Altay, make questionable financial decisions in Ponzi Scheme and round off the episode with a two-player lane-battler extravaganza. We discuss Geralt of Rivia's favourite card game in Gwent: The Legendary Card Game, hack the planet with Compile, and carefully co-ordinate drone strikes in Line of Fire: Burnt Moon.
Alongside the gaming chat, expect the usual Collider mix of nonsense, tangents, and a lot of laughter. Tune in for board games, hobby highlights, and more than a few questionable financial decisions. And don’t forget—you can join the discussion (and maybe pitch us your own con name) over on our [Discord server]!

Episode 171 - Jackpot Set the Reel, Fathom, Cyclades, and Transgalactica
8/3/2025
Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
In Episode 171 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we blast off into space, dive into the depths, battle for ancient Greek supremacy, and try our luck at the slot machine of strategy—all in one beautifully unhinged episode.
We kick things off with Jackpot: Set the Reel, coming to Kickstarter soon. This quick little card game promises to blend slot machines/fruit machines with strategic card play. Jackpot looks light, but is there enough game behind the glitter? We spin the reels and find out. And what the hell is a puggy! We then explore the depth in Fathom, an entry level board game about exploring the depths and cataloguing its divergent wildlife. Bac to the classics, well sort of, as we go in depth on Cyclades: Legendary Edition, the mythological area-control game full of gods, monsters, tactical auctions, and being a bigger dick than Zeus himself. Does it still hold up? And who summoned a Kraken again? And last of all we go to outer space in Transgalactica, a controversial game of going up tracks and colonising space.
Expect the usual dose of board game insight, over analysis, mild nonsense, and just enough arguing to keep things interesting.

Episode 170 - Fighting Fantasy Adventures, Luthier, Take the Throne
7/13/2025
Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
In Episode 170 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we dive into three very different games that prove once again how gloriously diverse the tabletop hobby can be, from classic fantasy adventures that make Steve feel old, to courtly power plays and master-crafted violins.
First we step into the dark, nostalgic world of Fighting Fantasy Adventures, the classic adventure books reimagined as a co-op board game by legendary designer Martin Wallace. Can this tabletop take on the iconic solo gamebooks capture the magic and mayhem? We roll the dice and try not to die (spoiler: we died).
Take the Throne is a fast-paced, strategic bluffing game that is heading to Kickstarter soon, and we’ve got an early look. With bluffing, tactical positioning, and a tight rule set, Take the Throne might just be your next favourite lunch-break skirmish.
Finally, we fine-tune our skills in Luthier, a gorgeous and deeply thematic euro-game of crafting musical instruments for royalty, rich patrons and prestige. With its unique mechanics and stunning presentation, it struck a chord with us!

Episode 169 – Sankoré, Civolution, and Timber Town
6/29/2025
Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
In Episode 169 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, we’re back to the normal format with a jam-packed episode full of cardboard strategy, wooden meeples, and the occasional alcahol related tangent. We’ve got three fresh games on the table—each offering a different flavour of thinky goodness—and we’re ready to break them down.
Sankoré: The Pride of Mansa Musa
We dive into this beautiful and brain-burning game of knowledge, trade, and influence. Set in medieval Timbuktu, Sankoré blends economic planning with cultural prestige—so naturally, we try to out-teach each other.
Civolution
What happens when you blend civilisation building with a modular tech tree and evolving asymmetry? Civolution aims to answer that. We dig into the mechanisms, the innovation, and whether it actually feels like building a civilisation.
Timber Town
Time to grab your axe and get to work! This charming, engine-building game about lumberjacks and town planning took us by surprise. It's a lot deeper than it looks—and yes, we make at least three wood-related puns.
So grab a brew, get comfy, and join us for another episode of tabletop talk and trite tangents.

Episode 166 - Rock Hard 1977, Flat Iron, Candela Obscura
5/4/2025
Why not buy a board game from our sponsors Kienda: kienda.co.uk/polyhedroncollider
Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content
In Episode 166 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the gang dives into a mix of worker placement, architecture, victorian horror, and some good old rock and roll.
Our fist building block Flat Iron, a 2-player worker placement board game that brings sharp decisions and sizzling tension. Does it have a solid foundation or fall over a dodgy new build. Then we get loud and nostalgic with Rock Hard 1977, a bombastic blend of music, roadies, and 'candy'. It’s all about the rock ‘n roll lifestyle—on a tabletop. Finally, we descend into the dark, arcane world of Candela Obscura, the atmospheric horror RPG from the minds behind Critical Role. We share our thoughts on the setting, the system, and the style—spoiler: we’re intrigued.

Warning: This podcast contains strong language and adult content
In Episode 164 of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the PhC team welcomes back Jon for a lively discussion covering recent gaming events and tabletop gaming reviews. The episode kicks off with Andy reporting from Airecon X, the renowned UK board gaming convention in Harrogate, highlighting the best games he played and the infamous food controversy.
The crew then delves into a review of Galactic Cruise from Dranda Games, suggesting that we may have already found our game of the year (and its only March)! Following this, they confront mythical monsters in Horrified: Greek Monsters, evaluating how this adaptation of the classic horror game integrates legendary creatures from Greek mythology and anachronistic London punks.
We then delve into the mail bag for questions on gaming convention cuisine, rulebooks and what makes a game click.
Games Mentioned
00:01:09 Airecon X - Black Orchestra, Restless Spirits, Nikojima, Square One
00:19:37 Galactic Cruise

In this episode of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the team dives into a mix of science, board games, and digital adventures.

Shifting gears, we tackle Slay the Spire: The Board Game, a card game translation of the beloved deck-building roguelike, breaking down its strategic depth, replayability, and asking the question what it offers over its digital lineage.
The conversation then moves to Perch a cute but ruthless area control game about flocking birds, and House of Fado, a Gallerist inspired game of enticing punters to your restaurant and promoting musicians.

In this episode of the Polyhedron Collider Cast, the team dives into the latest board game news, reviews, and some seriously unexpected topics, like geese! Tune in as we discuss playing the Warhammer 40k Space Marine VR experience, review a cheese board of games, and design the Dunelm board game.
We take a deep dive into the strategic and resource-management game Inventors of the South Tigris, asking is it a worthy end to the South Tigris trilogy. We then take a look at Fromage a quirky worker placement game about making cheese. Is it as rich in flavor as it sounds or does it stink like a ripe Stilton? We round off the cheese theme with the Rats of Wistar, is it a bad game, or are Sid and Rory just bad gamers?
