About this episode
The episode discusses the card game Mindbug and its place in the tabletop community, along with updates on Disney Villainous.
We are back… but are we in control? After a long hiatus, the morons return to the mic! In this episode of The Gateway Gamers Podcast, we dive deep into Mindbug , the two player card battler designed by Richard Garfield (creator of Magic: The Gathering) and published by Nerdlab Games. This fast paced dueling card game has been making serious waves in the tabletop community, blending strategic depth, bluffing, and brain burning decisions into a deceptively small box. But here’s the question: is Mindbug a must own two player game for your board game shelf… or does it get mind controlled straight into the trash pile? And just when you think you’re free from Villainous talk, we pivot to the latest Disney Villainous news. Stick around for a special after credits bonus segment that may or may not have been implanted into the episode without our consent. The Mindbugs are hungry. Your shelf space is vulnerable. Press play.
