At Gen Con 2014 I had the chance to sit down with Sean Brown and chat about Spurs and Alien Uprising. Spurs is a do it all kind of Western game. While Alien Uprising is all about crashing on the wrong planet. This interview was a lot of fun, a lot of wierd things happen during it that distract us.

It has been a day since I shared my desire to explore The Amega Weapon. Today we will look at aliens. Is it a surprise that there will be aliens at Gen Con? I’m sure that I’m going to leave some out, but I’m really looking forward to checking Alien Uprising from Mr.B. Games, All quiet on the Martian Front, and Mars Attacks.
