Dan Thurot and I continue our journey through the Pax Series with a playthrough of Pax Illuminaten, the latest entry designed by Oliver Kiley and published by Ion Games! Set in 18th-century Bavaria, this game plunges us into the world of secret societies, clandestine influence, and Enlightenment-era intrigue.
