To do it, she and her colleagues openly share information. That kind of collaboration is required of players in Pandemic, in which each player takes on the role of a professional in the field. The game’s designer, Matt Leacock, tells us how the game came together. Removing cubes from a board isn’t a matter of life and death, but combating global contagions is.Read a full transcript of this episode.Immersed is produced by Cardboard Edison.Special thanks to Dr. Bronwyn MacInnis, Matt Leacock, Sandy Bondarowicz, and James Griffin.Editing assistance by Eric Booth.Music:Ambient Bongos by Alexander Nakarada (www.serpentsoundstudios.com).

This time we’re tracking the movements of a killer, as we learn about a key moment in the dark story of Jack the Ripper called “the Double Event.” Clinical psychologist and author Dr. Mark Vogel is our guide. The Ripper’s reign of terror 130 years ago would come to inspire the game Mr. Jack. Its co-designer, Bruno Cathala, tells us how the game was made, and we examine whether or not the game tells the real story of Jack the Ripper.
