What would you like to see us play on Tabletop Season Three?

Anonymous asked:


Second Season of Wil Wheaton Project. Yes or No? I hope SyFy channel has the foresight to keep it going.


So for those of you who don’t know, earlier this summer, I did 12 episodes of a silly comedy show on Syfy called The Wil Wheaton Project. It was basically The Soup for people like me who enjoy sci-fi, fantasy, and horror, as well as jokes about those things. If you’d like to see a bunch of clips from the show, they’re right here on my YouTube thing.


We’re officially on hiatus right now, and we don’t know if the network will order more episodes. I know that they liked us in a creative sense, but the ratings weren’t very good (ratings are generally not very good in summer, and while I don’t believe that ratings are as important as they once were, my opinion on the matter isn’t particularly important to the decision makers), but the people who did watch us really liked us. So I won’t know for a few more weeks, but until then, I’m on hiatus, which means I get to write more, play more games, and prep for season three of Tabletop, which goes into production in October.


Part of that preparation includes finding 20 games to play on the show, and as of today, I have eight (maybe nine) that are strong contenders.


What do you want us to play on the show next year? Would you tell me the game, the publisher, and why you like it?


Keep in mind the criteria for Tabletop game selection:



Plays well with 4 people.

Plays in under 90 minutes.




Can be generally explained in about 5 minutes.




Has a high ration of luck to strategy, so everyone has a chance to win the game.




Looks great, has clear graphical design and photographs well.




Is not something we’ve played before.




I’d love to hear your ideas in the comments.
