Brock Wilbur (a games writer) and Matthew Monagle (a movie writer) have started a show to talk about board game adaptations of IPs from their worlds. Today's adventure is a Jurassic Park. I know you've probably never heard of Jurassic Park so this will be a fun introduction. Oh, wait? You're everyone, ever? Well. This game makes you feel like you're doing a good dino sprinty panic time. Also you can buy it for like six bucks. This is a hard recommend. Please tell a friend and leave us some feedback!
Brock Wilbur (a games writer) and Matthew Monagle (a movie writer) have started a show to talk about board game adaptations of IPs from their worlds. Today's adventure is Awaken Realms' The War of Mine. Based on a video game of same name, this SimSarajevo is one of the bleakest experiences we've ever encountered... and our most divisive. Please tell a friend and leave us some feedback!
Brock Wilbur (a games writer) and Matthew Monagle (a movie writer) have started a show to talk about board game adaptations of IPs from their worlds. Today's adventure is Fantasy Flight's Game of Thrones (2nd Edition) which pits you against all the other houses of Westeros. It's an excellent adaptation that captures the political intrigue of the books first and the TV second. Please tell a friend and leave us some feedback!

We hope you're enjoying the show. Please tell a friend and leave us some feedback!
One of the goals for Adap-Table is to follow-up on our coverage of board games with creator/designer interviews whenever possible. Right out of the gate, we've got a great one here. Brock and Matt are joined by Andrew Fischer, the game designer of Fantasy Flight Games' Fallout. Andrew has put his spin on some of the best IPs in the games world, and he spends 30 minutes answering all of our questions about the process of adapting a beloved franchise to the tabletop.
Brock Wilbur (a games writer) and Matthew Monagle (a movie writer) have started a show to talk about board game adaptations of IPs from their worlds. We start out with Fantasy Flight Games' version of Fallout. This post-apocalyptic adventure invites players to co-operate (kinda) towards a set of victory conditions while bringing out some of the most complicated game systems imaginable? Anyhow, welcome to the new show and please let us know what you think about it.
