We are honored to be nominated alongside a ton of great podcasts. Good luck to everyone nominated in all categories! This weeks episode is something of an experiment. We are trying out a new deep dive format, where we provide our review and decision space exploration for Messina 1347 and reserve the second half of the episode for a related topical discussion on overcentralizing mechanisms (closely related to overcentralizing strategy and/or dominant strategy). We are trying to make sure that our deep dive episodes offer something to all of our listeners, even if you are unfamiliar and/or uninterested in Messina 1347. We'd love to hear your thoughts on how this went, and all feedback will absolutely be considered for future deep dive episodes!

Game Design Unboxed: Inspiration to Publication

In episode 2 of Game Design Unboxed: Inspiration to Publication Danielle, Ben, and Denice talk with Peter McPherson on his first published game, Tiny Towns from AEG. The game was initially inspired by games like Minecraft with a spatial mechanic that is easy to understand but hard to master. Tiny Towns quickly shot up in popularity being one of the most sought after games in 2019. It was up for many of the biggest gaming awards such as the Mensa Award, Spiel der Spiele Hit für Familien, Golden Geek, and others! Peter talks about the success of the game and the creation of two expansions that add more depth, and the decision to take on a co-designer for developing these and other future expansions. New designers and hobbyists can enjoy his views on designing digitally in this COVID age.   Featuring: Peter McPherson – Guest Danielle Reynolds – Host Ben Moy – Host

Dan has been gaming since his mid-teens, although he became really immersed in the hobby about seven years ago. He has been making videos together with his daughter Cora for the Dice Tower for about four years, reviewing children's and family board games. And during lockdown they both decided that they would have a go at designing a board game themselves. Dan also co-hosts the Golden Geek nominated podcast Sporadically Board with Mike and Dan. He also created and is the former host of the Golden Geek nominated podcast This Game is Broken.

Estamos de vuelta, y a diferencia de la gente de Microsoft con Windows, nosotros no nos hemos saltado el nº9. Con un cambio de look más apañado que esperamos que os guste (bajo pena de catapulta) y un 100% de chistes malos de Alija, estamos de vuelta. ¡Al turron! • Nos saltamos LA CURIOSIDAD DEL ANILLO, porque en este programa ya perdemos bastante tiempo hablando de “la noticia” de la semana: Wingspan y su ¿exceso? de premios. • En la visita de Gandalf el Blanco, Peonza nos trae un árbol que da vueltas. Así explicado suena raro, y si además le sumamos a Odín, Thor, Loki, Fenrir, y otros dioses de la mitología nórdica, aún más. Pero al final queda claro que Yggdrasil Chronicles es un cooperativo con buena pinta. • En “LAS DOS TORRES”, el señor oscuro se pone a repartir anillos únicos (spoiler), que para ser únicos, resultan ser más de uno (pero si sus chistes tampoco tienen sentido, no se lo vamos a pedir ahora…) y nos habla de Dungeon petz. • En El Pozo de Moria, Eothair escoge un pozo muy poco profundo, nivel charquito, y nos habla de un jueguito de hacer cuadros impresionistas con láminas transparentes. Suena raro, pero es un juego sencillote y asequible: Canvas • Nuestro Gollum particular, Brujah, nos trae SU TESSSSSSORO: un juego de dados de una serie que dice que es famosa. Una tal “Bola de Dragón”. Pero el juego parece que se hace más bola, que dragón. • Siguiendo en “LAS DOS TORRES”, Garcy organiza las 100 millas de Isengard con Dice Drivin, aunque no parece que los Uruks y trasgos bajo su mando estén muy convencidos (bueno, ni casi nadie) • Y ya para acabar, LA COMUNIDAD DEL ANILLO se embarca en una discusión digna de la del Concilio de Elrond, acerca de si Wingspan merece todos los premios que se ha llevado en los premios Golden Geek de la web de la BGG (Ya os avanzamos que el hecho de que no se llevara el de mejor wargame, lo consideramos un ultraje) y ya puestos, analizamos todas las categorías...

In the show Ted Lasso (possibly the subject of a future Masterpiece Theatre?), French-Canadian goaltender Zoreaux asks to be called Van Damme. This is partly because people kept mispronouncing his name as "Zorro," and also because he admired the Muscles from Brussels. The point is that even people who thought it was stupid respected his wishes and called him what he wanted to be called, because that's what not being a jerk is. Similarly, ain't nothing necessarily wrong with being called Sally, but if you consistently call someone Sally when they don't want to be called that, you're being a toxic jerk. It doesn't have to be a big deal, and we're not the ones making it a big deal. Call people what they want to be called. It costs you nothing and decency is always a good look.Games Played Last Week:00:49 -Hot Lead (Reiner Knizia, Bitewing Games, 2022)02:49 -Masters of the Universe: Fields of Eternia The Board Game (Dave Ketch and Jakub S.
