Podcast! This week we’re stripping it all down to the bare essentials in this 100% natural episode.

Can YOU make the most beautiful Bassoon in all the land? Maybe! But it’s certainly more likely to happen in a game of Luthier - the subject of this very latest video review, which you can watch IMMEDIATELY! GO GO GO!!! youtu.be/EXYUNQHkTNE

Animal Rescue Team (the first game in our SU&SD Presents line) has been nominated for an Origins Award in the Coop/Solo category! Thank you to the panel!

Podcast! Tom and Matt are chatting about an avalanche of games of various quality, and YOU’RE INVITED! It’s horse breeding in Epona, it’s worm catching in Wriggle Roulette, and it’s definitely Not A Game About A Pipe. Enjoy! shutupandsitdown.com/podcastle/podc…
