Free Play 136 – 137 | Skyrim The Board Game (& Disney+ Day 2021)

SHOW NOTES

You know that here at the Free Play Podcast we love both video and tabletop experiences. So what happens when these two things collide to make board games based off of popular video games? We take a look at the massive Skyrim – The Adventure Game that’s currently being funded on GameFound.com to see how it holds up to Skyrim the video game and think up some other games we’d like to see turned into tabletop games. That’s what we’re talking about this week on the Free Play podcast.

 

Note from Aug. 2022 – Episode 137 apparently never got posted to the website. Here it is:
