A shorter (and very sleepy) episode this week, were we discuss how we incorporated our love of board games into our wedding (which was literally the day before we recorded the episode).

This week has been crazy busy so we haven't had much chance to play games, which in turn got us thinking about games we love but we never get to play. This week we talk about Hanabi (which we did get to play), Two Rooms and a Boom, Citadels (which only plays 7 not 8 as we discuss), Netrunner and Abyss. If you want to hear more from us follow us on twitter @Boardgamesinbed, or on instagram, boardgamesinbed, or you can even email us boardgamesinbed@gmail.com

For our tenth episode we discuss what constitutes a house rule and the advantages and disadvantages of house ruling a game, as well as sharing a few examples of our own house rules. We also cover what we have been playing this week including Shadows Over Camelot, Codenames: Deep Undercover, Skull and Tadaam!

This week we discuss what makes a good game to play on your lunch break and who to play those lunch time games with.
