Devon Dice Podcast – Episode 138: Fox & Hounds Weekend Wrap-Up

In this episode of the Devon Dice Podcast, host Joel is joined by Nick and Lewis (with Sam off sick and Claire busy with university work) to recap their recent Fox & Hounds board game weekend. They discuss the event’s highlights, including hosting duties, the dinner and quiz, and various exciting board games played throughout the weekend.

The team dives into a mix of new and classic games such as Last Message, Orléans, Marvel Dice Throne Missions, Cryptid, Thunder Road Vendetta, and Root. Claire also got involved with Harmonies, and there were plenty of play-to-win moments with Finspan and Treehouse.

Looking ahead, they announce the next Fox & Hounds gaming weekend scheduled for 17 – 19 November 2025.

The episode also covers major industry news, including Awaken Realms’ upcoming releases, CMON’s latest financial troubles, and the controversial new edition of Quacks of Quedlinburg.

Finally, the hosts share their recent gaming experiences:

• Nick played Cerebria, Die Speicherstadt, and several Board Game Arena (BGA) titles like The Bloody Inn, Stalk Exchange, and A Gest of Robin Hood.

• Joel shares his thoughts on Kingdom Legacy.

Tune in for all the details, board game chatter, and a dose of the usual Devon Dice fun!
