The Omnigamers' Club

By: Daniel Wynter and Mark Yuasa
  • Summary

  • The Omnigamers' Club is a book club style podcast for those whose love of games eclipses the divide between analog and digital. Alternating between board games, video games and everything in between, each episode will take a deep dive into one specific game, our thoughts and the conversation around it.

    We’re once again donning our thinking caps to interpret the language-based puzzle video game Chants of Sennaar. We discuss whether its linguistic deduction is more like crosswords or dark souls bosses, and provide some other recommendations for our lexical listeners.

    Light puzzle spoilers included.


    Other Games Discussed
    The Witness, Return of the Obra Dinn, Ultraviolet Grasslands, Suveh Nux, Botany Manor, Heaven’s Vault, Outer Wilds, City of Six Moons
