First we take a deep dive into one of the most talked-about sci-fi strategy games of recent years, Andromeda's Edge. Does Andromeda's Edge build on the foundations of Dwellings of Eldervale, or does it chart its own course among the stars? We discuss the engine building, exploration, combat, and whether it's worth sitting at the table for nearly 3 hours!!! We then move to the complete opposite end of the board game spectrum with Bunny Kingdom Town, the new two-player only version of Richard Garfield's cutesy area control game Is it an essential addition or one for devoted bunny fans only? Then it's time to open the forbidden tomes as we investigate Miskatonic Tales: Journey to Innsmouth. We talk eldritch mysteries, impossible choices, and whether this Lovecraft-inspired story-driven game delivers the atmosphere and tension horror fans are looking for. Finally, we step aboard another doomed spacecraft with Alien: Rapture Protocol, the latest cinematic adventure for Alien RPG Evolved Edition. We discuss the new rule set while testing out the new adventure while asking the important question: did Sid backstab everyone?  Join the conversation on our [Discord server] and let us know what's been hitting your table this week!   Podcast Contents 00:00:00 Can AI summarize crack the PhC hosts? 00:07:32 Andromeda's Edge 00:29:42 Bunny Kingdom Town 00:40:09 Miskatonic Tales: Journey to Innsmouth 01:01:20 Alien RPG Evolved Edition and Rapture Protocol   \u2b50Show Sponsor: E Toys World When you sign up to an account with E Toys World use this link [https:\/\/www.etoysworld.co.uk\/discount\/PHC10] to bag yourself a wee discount and help support the show.  Let's face it, you were going to buy a board game anyway \ud83d\ude09 For a 10% discount at Tabletop Dominion (the amazing makers of the dice cubes), go to tabletopdominion.com\/POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER or use the code POLYHEDRONCOLLIDER at checkout \ud83d\udc65Follow Us on Social Media Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PolyhedronCollider Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/polyhedroncollider Threads: https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@polyhedroncollider \ud83c\udfa7The latest episode is available to listen on the following pod-cast services: iTunes -  https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/gb\/podcast\/the-polyhedron-collider-cast\/id1087398150  Spotify -  https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/1rAPFNc5rE6JURNYakNzA3  Amazon - https:\/\/music.amazon.co.uk\/podcasts\/eba45bc5-0a1d-493c-bbbd-024fe5714147\/the-polyhedron-collider-cast YouTube - https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@polyhedroncollider  Player FM -  https:\/\/player.fm\/series\/the-polyhedron-collider-cast  Podbay -  http:\/\/podbay.fm\/show\/1087398150  Or you can add the http:\/\/polyhedroncollider.libsyn.com\/rss Polyhedron Collider Cast RSS feed to your favourite podcast player  Intro and Outro Music: "Ouroboros" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com).
