This episode, we’re building a collective Top 10 list of board games we want to see turned into movies. Sounds easy? Think again.Each host gets two vetoes, meaning no pick is safe. How many games will each host manage to get onto the final list? Will anyone’s favorites get completely shut down? And most importantly… will we actually agree on the final Top 10?Expect passionate arguments, questionable veto choices, and plenty of board game hot takes as we imagine which tabletop worlds belong in Hollywood.👉 Let us know in the comments: Which board game would YOU turn into a movie?E-Mail us at Mail@Aroundtheboard.netJoin our Facebook Page at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1374236329514579Follow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/aroundtheboard_atb/ @asmodee_es @RenegadeGameStudios @jameystegmaier @devir-games @AllplayHQ @mindware @CzechGamesEdition @ThunderworksGames 0:00 Intro4:27: Heat8:35 Evo11:47 Fog of Love15:33 Everdell19:25 Castell22:50 Euphoria26:55 Rock Hard: 197730:29 Message from the Stars34:39 Qwirkle37:16 Moon Colony41:00 Quartermaster General44:21 Lost Ruins of Arnak50:00 Lewis and Clark52:57 Fliptoons57:38 Origin Story1:01:22 Camel Up1:06:00 Honorable Mentions
