Episode 029 - The Knizia Auction Trilogy (Ding!)

You may have noticed this, but we like Reiner Knizia. Like a lot! He’s Robert’s favorite and second favorite designer after all!

This week on the show, in celebration of all things Knizia, we break the rules and go off script to talk about the genius of Knizia’s auction trilogy. What makes Modern Art, Ra & Medici so special? So different? Should these three games be his “auction trilogy?” Robert, Steve & Evan endeavor to find out!
