“I have been in this hobby for nearly 20 years, so I’ve experienced loads of reviews and discussions of games. Today, we have Youtube, magazines, websites, blogs, and the venerable podcast. With all that, it is hard to find a consistent, reliable source of good opinion backed by integrity and entertainment. Well, it was hard. However you got here, be thankful that you can stop searching for the best source of information on “designer board games.”
Edward and Tony, the hosts of Heavy Cardboard, love board games. That love comes across in just a few minutes of listening. You’ll also quickly discover that they have a great rapport and articulate their thoughts very coherently. Yet, their greatest strength lies in their integrity. They don’t “review” a game until they’ve played it multiple times with different groups of people, and best of all, they are not afraid to say that a game does not live up to their highest standards. These guys know the difference between a good, fun game and a classic game with a depth that will not be found without repeated, contemplative play. Heck, they frequently disagree with each other, but never in an uncivil manner.
It is hard to walk that line as a critic. You have to be a super-fan. You need an unbridled enthusiasm for the subject. But, you have to be willing to express disappointment and suggest improvement for the things you love. Do that with intelligence and wit, twice a month for a couple years, and you can reach the stature of Heavy Cardboard.”

“After the appetizers that are other board gaming podcasts, it's nice to settle in for the main course with some Heavy Cardboard! Keep up the good work and we'll keep listening and maybe sooner or later I will actually get to play some heavier games.”Read full review »
