Game Previews from GAMA Expo 2020 I: Maglev Metro, Ducks in Tow, Big Easy Busking, Downforce: Wild Ride, and Teotihuacan: Shadow of Xitle
From gallery of W Eric Martin
Less than two weeks after we conducted 20+ hours of interviews with game designers and publishers at GAMA Expo 2020, we've started posting the edited versions of those overviews on our BGG Express YouTube channel. (We also have a specific GAMA Expo 2020 playlist should you care to see only that.)

Here are the first five videos live on that playlist, with one hundred or so videos likely to be published once we've wrapped our coverage of this show for a second time. Note that any release dates mentioned in these videos have asterisks by them given what's going on in the world these days — except for Downforce: Wild Ride and Teotihuacan: Shadow of Xitle, of course, since those two expansions have already hit the market.
