KWEEEEHHHH!!
Translation: Thanks for joining us, Chocobo pals!
Today we embark on a journey into the world of videogame x boardgame cross-overs!
We begin with one of our favourite franchises: Final Fantasy. Yes, Square Enix has provided us with hundreds of hours of entertainment over the last 20 odd years with this series of games, (as well as teaching us how to read Roman numerals!) but how well does this translate into a boardgame?
Tune in to find out!

Things get a little left field at the end as we bring you an action-packed experience, featuring Lauren 'on keys'. You're welcome.
