In our two hundred and seventy-second episode, Aaron is joined by Brendo, Matt, and Scott. We borrow an idea from the Board Game Barrage podcast and make the Boards Alive Top 40 Games of All Time. We take turns picking a game to be added to the list, but it can be vetoed out by the other members of the group. We cover games 20 to 1 in this episode.
