TGT On Topic 186: The Game Designers Movie

This week, while in quarantine, we talk about The Game Designers Movie by Eric Rayl.  This is a great peek behind the hobbyist board game designer curtain.  We only give an overview, but it’s definitely worth watching.  You can find out more at http://www.thegamedesignersmovie.com

Also, since most of us are now quarantined in some way, here is Suzanne’s list of board game apps which is much longer than our list from last week. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1M824hQ0kgksiNuEmBMGFsAEsVPBo2VD5FvpEvYj6UVI/edit#gid=693775771

TGT On Topic 184: Long-Form Gaming

This week we go long.  Well not really long in the episode, but long in gaming.  Or really we just talk about long gaming sessions.  Like all day or maybe even a weekend.  Sometimes the same game, sometimes a series of games.  Sometimes you just need to go through an entire legacy game in one session (ok, no, you should never really do that).  But in any case we’re talking about long gaming sessions.  Because they are fun!

TGT On Topic 183: Competitive Legacy Games

This week we’re talking about competitive legacy games (or campaign games) and how the story can overshadow the game play and desire to win.  At least for some people.  This is all spoiler free, mostly because we don’t remember enough of some of these games to spoil them in the first place, and because it’s not nice to spoil stuff.

TGT On Topic 182: Why Make Games

This week we’re looking at the age old question, why make games.  In doing so we talk about the games we’re thinking of and the state of design they are in.  We also touch on the difficulty of making games in the first place.  Oh, and we learn a little bit about White Castle as well!

TGT On Topic 181: Mainstream to Mastery (aka Couch to 5k)

This week we finally talk about our gaming couch to 5k which we end up renaming near the end of the conversation (spoiler alert: the title of the episode).  We take 4 different approaches (4th thanks to Joey) to create our lists.  And find it’s a fun thought experiment at the very least.  Oh, and Chris really likes Homeworlds, so you should check it out.

TGT 177 On Topic: Rulebooks (ep 40 rerun)

This week we wanted to talk about getting rid of rulebooks.  But Kitty is too sick to record, so instead of recording without her, this is a rerun of episode 40 where we talk about what we like and don’t like about rulebooks.  It’s been edited to remove time sensitive content (what we referred to as off topic at the time) but otherwise remains intact and relevant to next week’s conversation where we really will talk about getting rid of rulebooks.

TGT 176 On Topic: Game Complexity

It’s the start of a new year, so where better to start than talking about how complex the games we play really are.  And as a result we find out what types of games we really enjoy the most when it comes to complexity.  Oh, and we talk a lot about BGG’s weight rating for games, turns out it’s a surprisingly good indicator for games you may or may not like.
