33:19

In Episode 102, Glenn has been thinking about the fact that games often offer, as things that life sometimes doesn't, freedom and closure. These two elements, however, seem almost directly contradictory. Also, minis games feel like they almost inevitably give closure, but hardly ever give true freedom. So, can we make a wide and free sandbox minis …

In Episode 101, Glenn has been pondering the idea of horror as an experience in tabletop games.

In Episode 98, Glenn has been thinking about Boarders and Black Flags, his game of high seas piratical action, and about how he hasn't allow players to stab or shoot each other in it, to make it more fun.

In Episode 93 when you create a game you create a world, which is great, but how should you visually represent it?

In Episode 92 when you create a game you create a world, which is great, but how specific should you be about that world?

Ep 90: Miniatures Game Design - Narrative VS Competitive, the LIE!. 33:49

1y ago33:49

33:49

Many games choose to present themselves as being part of a dichotomy where on one side there is narrative and the other is competitive, as though a game can only be one or the other. We think that's pretty much utter bunk. The two just are not connected, a game can be neither, or both. So let's all agree to stop pretending otherwise shall we?Glenn …
