A spooky welcome to Episode 104 of The Last Standee Podcast!
This episode we explore curses, critters and cursed critters which also curse you! But let us get our curse-words (Inigo Montoya vibes here: you keep saying that word - I don't think it means what you think it means) sorted!
First, there's our Standee Catch-up with Cara and Alessio, then Alessio breaks ice with Eternal Decks, an excellent scenario-based coop card game by Hiroken seeing first reprint right these days, then Cara goes with Here to Slay, the Unstable Unicorns sequel that nods a bit to Munchkin (but also has some good things going its way). Finally, Alessio and Cara talk about King of Tokyo Duel, the last (next to last, now that Essen SPIEL has come and gone there's Mindbug King of Tokyo) iteration of the franchise, which brings some very welcome fresh air to the known and loved concept of the game.
And I think here we are: there are cards, combos, critters and curses - episode's done!
See you next episode!

99: The Final Countdown (Freedom Five, Big Shot, Qwirkle, Odin)
dary! And welcome to Episode 99 of The Last Standee Podcast!
In this episode, stars align and omens appear as we are about to kiss goodbye to two digits for good!
The episode begins as usual, with a Standee Catchup with Fen and Cara, of dogs and humankind so to say.
Then we begin with Freedom Five, a Defenders of the Realm game from Greater than Games: Fen does the honors here; fun fact: the game has four expansions and a promo which appear to be engulfed in a time paradox (see BGG stats!). The three of us then continue with two games from Cara's fortnightly game night - Big Shot and Qwirkle - great additions to any collection, if a little aged. To finish up, Alessio talks a bit about Odin (the Norse deity, not the number one in languages with Cyrillic alphabet), the proud winner of As D'Or 2025.
And that's about it! See you next episode!
