Prepare for a historical journey like no other as we dive into the world of 'Pilgrim,' a brain-bending game that will make you wonder if running a 14th century abbey is your true calling. This time around, I'm joined by the infamous video game streamer, Joe Clyne, as we swap our controllers for meeples and attempt to out-pious each other.
In 'Pilgrim,' we're not just chilling in our humble abbeys. Oh no, we're making pilgrim routes, ordaining serfs, being all kinds of charitable, and running our abbey like it's the hippest joint in the 14th century. Trust us, it's more thrilling than it sounds!
And did I mention there are '160 sextillion' possible starting setups? Yeah, that's not a number I made up after too many medieval ales. It's for real.
Join us as we jump headfirst into this zero randomness, all strategy game and see if we have what it takes to rise through the ranks and become the next cardinal. It's all fun and games until someone gets excommunicated, right?
Whether you're a seasoned tabletop veteran, a devout video gamer, or just someone curious about what happens when you combine a historical game theme with two unabashed nerds, you won't want to miss this!
So, ready your rosaries, folks, and join us in this holy hot mess of abbeys, acolytes, and annexes!
