Episode 025 - What Makes A Game Elegant?

Elegance is a fancy word for fancy people, but does that translate to board games? We’ve heard reviewers use it, we’ve seen the backs of boxes use it and heck, we’ve maybe even used it to describe a favorite game… but what does it actually mean? Better yet… what actually makes that game “elegant?”

Steve, Robert & Evan aim to answer just that on this weeks episode!
