Banish the Snakes is a neat solo/cooperative board game published by GMT Games about converting Pagans in Ireland to Christianity. Do I endorse mass conversions of a people? No, but it does seem to make for an interesting board game. :) And maybe we can learn a bit about what St. Patrick was about and why we all pretend to be Irish and get drunk in his name.
I pre-ordered this game in 2021 as part of GMT's P500 system in which they'll publish a prospective game if it gets 500 pledges. It arrived in early March 2023, just in time for St. Patrick's Day, which seems fitting. I had to postpone the stream a couple of times unfortunately, but it's happening now at least!
