Episode 155 - The Resistance
At long last, we are deep diving the resistance the first and only social deduction game we've covered on this podcast. Because the game is so different from other things we've covered, you should expect a different kind of conversation. You can trust me y'all. Seriously, please trust me!

Episode 154 - Roll and Write
Trying something new here. This week we explore not, not two, but all of the roll and write games. That's right, we're taking on the whole roll and write genre. What types of decisions are found in these games, what does the genre do well, and maybe what is better left served by other core mechanisms? We hope you enjoy this episode, fellow decisionaughts!

Episode 151 - The Future of Decision Space
The future is now. We've conquered the first 150 episodes (I still can't believe that number) of Decision Space, and so we set our Interdecisional Spaceship on course for a new frontier. While long-time listeners will notice some passing similarities to our mission planning episode, this episode feels a little different. We unpack what we've done with the show thus far, our goals moving forward, and only end by sharing a few games we hope to cover in the year ahead. I hope you travelers enjoy this honest conversation (if at times a little naval gazing) about our show.

Episode 150 - We Rank Every Game Year End Special (Episode 150!!!)
This is the 150th episode of Decision Space. I really can hardly believe it, and how fitting it is that it lands on the annual year-end special where we look back at and rank every game from every deep dive this year. Everyone, join is the Interdecisional Spaceship bridge at once!
