TGT 040: Rulebooks

This week we look at the rules.  Well rulebooks anyway.  What we like, dislike, and the various ways different publishers/designers approach writing rulebooks.

Off Topic

This is week two of our Mechs vs. Minions giveaway!

We’re still working on finding out our Origins time, holding out hope that all works out.  GenCon is official and Friday Aug 18th at 6:00pm.

We then get to some feedback from Thom, Steven, Micheal, Steve, and Christy.

Finally a quick question on mobile game recommendations.

On Topic

We start off talking about a game that doesn’t have a rulebook at all. We then look at the two rulebook format as well as the traditional one book format.

We talk about what we (and you) like and don’t like in your rulebooks.  We even get into a bit of real world rulebook review and writing activities.
