Board All The Time LIVE: Top Ten Games of All Time for 2026
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to our LIVE Top Ten Episode! This time Scott, Jason, and Mark are all running down their top ten games of all time! This was recorded live at Victory Roll Cafe on December 17th, 2025 and so it’s going to have the ambient audio of a live cafe in the background. This was an absolute blast for us to do and we had such a great vibe of people coming and going. This is mostly unedited, so all the ums, ahs, and oh you knows are going to be there, but that’s the joy of recording this way. Thank you again to all of our sponsors and thank YOU for continuing the journey with us here in 2026. We can’t wait to see what the year has for us and getting back onto a more regular release schedule!

The Top 10 Games Released in 2025
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to another top ten list! This time Mark and Scott are running down their best games of 2025! This was a great episode to record and it was amazing to realize how many games that we had played that released this year for us to actually be able to do this list. There are some really excellent games here, especially ones that we weren’t expecting to be on at all. We hope you have a great time with this one and let us know what YOUR top ten games of 2025 were!

Board All the Time Episode 29
Hey hey BATT Family! Heck Yeah Episode 29! Scott and I had a great time recording this one, but it was a bummer Jason couldn’t join us since he was sick on the night of recording. We decided to bring back the Mechanics Shop and discuss one of our favourite mechanisms: Tile Laying! We also got to have a long conversation about one of Mark’s favourite games for Why Did It Take So Long to Play That. And finally we wrap this one up with a TST that goes kind of out of order because Scott accidentally brought a game to review he’d already done so with. It’s a fun episode in the vein of Season One and we hope you enjoy it!

Board All the Time Episode 28 (With AJ Porfirio)
Hey hey BATT Family! Huzzah for Episode 28! I would really love for one of these edits to go a lot smoother and thankfully I think this should be the last super difficult one for a while. Regardless! We have AJ from Van Ryder Games on with us and had an absolute blast talking with him! We got to talk the wide array of Van Ryder’s games, what games to show to new people, and I got to absolutely traumatize Scott and Jason with this week’s pick for Why Did I Play That? This one really was a ton of fun to record so we hope you enjoy it just as much as we did!

Hey hey BATT Family! We are so excited to be back in your ears with Episode 27. Featuring the inimitable Chris Yi from the Dice Tower, we got to have our full episode with him in every segment. We got to talk what it’s like to go back and focus on older games, try out a new version of what Mark considers a classic, and just riff off of each other a lot. We had a wonderful time with this recording session and we hope you enjoy it too. Be sure to hit us up after you listen to it and let us know what you thought at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com!

Board All the Time Episode 26 (With Curt Covert)
Hey hey BATT Family! The first major episode of Season Two is here! We have a great conversation with Curt Covert from Smirk and Dagger games for this episode and we break down the way they’ve seen the hobby change in the 22 years of their existence. Jason also has his first deployment of a game at Mark and Scott for Why Did I Play That and for the first time we have a guest join us for Table Shelf and Trade! It’s a super fun episode and we had a lot of it end up going to an Odds and Ends in the future like the way we did with James Hudson because otherwise this thing would have been almost three hours long. Hope you enjoy this and we can’t wait to hear what you think about it! Thanks for joining us for season two and getting to hear about all of our new sponsors as well!

Board All the Time Episode 25
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to Episode 25, another of our top ten lists with a special guest. This time was us getting Mark’s good friend Austin onto the show to discuss the Top Ten Best Games We Don’t Play Anymore. It’s a fun topic for people who’ve played as many games for as long as we have to break down. We hope that you have as good of a time with us as we had recording it. This is also an episode where, yes, we are dedicating it entirely to older games but honestly it’s to remind ourselves of good memories as well as maybe intrigue you in some games you may have never heard of or just haven’t gotten to try. We played them all to where we’re done with them, but that certainly doesn’t mean that you wouldn’t enjoy them. If you do try any of them out, let us know! This is another moment of how long it’s been since we recorded as well - this episode is coming out in September and I believe this was recorded back in May. The choices are all still valid, but the weird timeline jumps if you’re listening to this back to back with Episode 24 is real. Regardless! Thanks for joining us on this final episode of Season One and we’ll catch you on the start of Season Two on October 7th!

Board All the Time Episode 24
Hey hey BATT Family! Thanks for the wait on this main episode to come out! August, even removing Gen Con from the equation, turned into (politely) a lot for the entire BATT crew. Between medical scares and surgeries, job changes, and all manner of other things it just became the month where we ended up needing to take the break. But we’re stoked you’re still with us and this episode is a lot of fun! We have some serious ups and downs on opinions through this one, so be sure to let us know how you feel about everything by emailing us at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com! On with the show!

Reviews: Pillars of Fate
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to our series of reviews for the brand new, small box IV Studios games. In this review we’ll be taking a look at Pillars of Fate. Pillars of Fate is the new 2 player only game in the Veiled Fate series of games from IV. This game is a lane battler that will have players placing cards within 3 lanes over the course of 3 rounds called ages. This game will be using all of the characters as introducted between Veiled Fate and it’s Tribunal expansion and maintain the Scorpion/Feather structure that you may be used to from those games. While you do not have to have played the other two games in the series, having the familiarity of them and how they operate will make onboarding with this game much easier. A game of Pillars of Fate will take you about 30 minutes per session. We were provided this copy by IV and as such this is a sponsored review of the deluxe edition of the game that will be available at Gen Con later this week.

Reviews: Graft
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to our series of reviews for the brand new, small box IV Studios games. In this review we’ll be taking a look at Graft, the new small box drafting and push your luck game from IV Studios set in the world of another of their games, the soon to be released Tend. While you can very much see the threads connecting the two games together if you’ve played them - essentially the card rows you’ll be building in Graft are the manifest that you assemble by stamping in Tend - you certainly do not need to play one to know the other. Graft is the much, much lighter and shorter game for 3-5 players and will take you about 30 minutes per session. We were provided this copy by IV and as such this is a sponsored review of the deluxe edition of the game that will be available at Gen Con later this week.

Reviews: Time to Panic
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to our series of reviews for the brand new, small box IV Studios games. In this review we’ll be taking a look at Time to Panic. In Time to Panic, you’re trying to repair a shattered timeline in this fully cooperative game for 1-4 players, taking approximately 30-45 minutes per session. Your goal is to fully align a series of cards numbered 1-36 into as correct of an order as possible. We were provided this copy by IV and as such this is a sponsored review of the deluxe edition of the game that will be available at Gen Con later this week.

Reviews: Vantage
Hey hey BATT Family! Welcome to our review for Vantage. This is not a sponsored review, but Jason and I were provided our copies of the game as compensation for working the booth at GenCon. We refer to this within the episode itself, but to be clear we were given the game to learn and play so that we could accurately teach it at GenCon. Stonemaier did not ask for this review and we did get permission to do this ahead of time just in case. Regardless! We like the game quite a bit. If you’re concerned about any spoilers here, we drop our scores within the first few minutes before explaining anything at all about the game so that way you don’t have to worry about that. We actually managed to not spoil any of the content through our discussions but we also get that certain audiences don’t want to know anything beyond the basic dice/card interactions before opening the box and we wanted to respect that. Vantage is a huge open world sandbox game comprised of over 1700 cards for 1-6 players and was designed by Jamey Stegmaier over the course of eight years. Come crash land on the planet with us to learn what we thought about the game and then once you’ve gotten to do so let us know your opinions on it at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com!

Gen Con 2025 Preview: The Games
Hey hey BATT Family! GenCon 2025 is ONE WEEK AWAY! That means that it is perfect timing to get out the GenCon preview list. We recorded this list on July 9th when there were 499 games on the list. While another 70 or so were added since then, we’re all still extremely happy with our lists and will still be looking for these games in particular. Scott, Jason, and Mark have all gathered to make sure that we’re telling you about 30 different games that we are excited to check out and hopefully bring home from the con in one way or another. We hope that you enjoy this episode and you let us know what you’re looking forward to on BlueSky or by emailing us at boardallthetimegaming@gmail.com. As a reminder, Mark and Jason will be teaching Vantage at the Stonemaier/MeepleSource booth at location 2909 this year and Scott will be demoing it in the play hall not too far away on Thursday and Friday mornings. Come say hi!
