WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME?!?! at the following link.

Physical games (not sports), board games, mixtures between the two and electronic gaming. Outside the realm of “video” gaming there exists another love of most gamers and it resides in those three categories. Board games come in many flavors and are usually well known by most of us. Finding the right ones – where everything clicks with you and your group – is part of the adventure there. The other two bookending that selection aren’t as well known or readily available. These are games like the room ones where you’re locked in a room and have to find your way out. A mirror maze, the “2 Rooms & A Boom” we mention on the show itself. There’s fun to be had there and I wish these were on the same list of availability as board and video games are. There’s something fun about physically playing a game – and not one that requires any sort of athletic skill, but just you and some other people living a game for a few hours. I’m drawn to it and I can’t really put my finger quite on why, but…I bet my obsession with VR likely stems, at least a little, from this sort of thing.
