I’m good friends with Bryan Fischer, who is both a game designer and a publisher. He’s always someone I can chat with about board games with and is a great resource of feedback for me. Let’s get to know him a bit better.
Knot dice is not so much a game as it is a set of components. A number of dice with various patterns as well as some tokens make up the basic kit. How do these games work out or are the dice just toys to get tied up in?
Scott Almes is becoming known for his Tiny Epic games and his other “small box but big game” designs. Now he’s designed Best Treehouse Ever. Does this stack up to Scott’s other games, or should we just leaf it alone?
Matt Leacock is a well known designer. He’s known for Pandemic, Forbidden Island, and Roll Through the Ages, which are some really great games. I was fortunate enough to interview him about his newest Kickstarter, The Thunderbirds!
Chris Leder is a buddy of mine who made Roll For It!, one of my favorite casual gateway games that work with groups of people. He’s now working on getting Trainmaker published by Grey Gnome Games via Kickstarter. Let’s take a look at this next dice game from Chris.
We’re back from Unpub 5 and we played a lot of interesting games. I want to talk about those games and about the convention and why you should consider Unpub in 2016, whether you’re a publisher, established designer, budding designer, or player.
