You want me to do what now? Play a board game on the TV? Using my phone? Never!
*shakes fist at cloud*
*shakes more fist at cloud*
*picks up phone and starts playing*
Wait this thing is good! Like, real good. Okay, I guess today we're talking about a board game that's also a video game that's also a phone game. And you're going to listen and you're going to enjoy it.

Rival Cities
Why duel with silly weapons when you can duel with whole cities? In Rival Cities, Hamburg and Altona go head to head to see who will be the city anyone's ever heard of. I think you probably know who pulled that off IRL.
But if you'd rather fight with fruit or sausages, fear not because we have those for you too - in our Work in Progress.
