In this episode of The State of Games, Monkey and Dice try a grand experiment and take on a listener's challenge - create the perfect 10-game library using a cross-section of some of the most popular gaming themes, play styles and mechanics; if anything, you'll learn why nearly every game you play has to do with travel. All this, plus paranoia in Panic Station, a first look at Alf Seegert's The Road to Canterbury, flicks in space with Ascending Empires, and pitting Monkey's North versus Dice's South in Test of Fire: Bull Run 1861.
