TGT 164 On Topic: Publisher Promises

This week we’re looking at the promises publishers make, and break.  Should Kickstarter exclusives stay exclusive forever?  Should publishers be punished for missing releases dates?  Should preorder windows stay open for the entire window even if stock runs out?  Maybe.  But maybe not…

TGT 163 On Topic: Playing Games for Money

This week we talk about cash money, for winning.  And what that can do to a game.  We use KeyForge as an example since FFG recently announced a $100,000 cash event, but really this applies to all types of competitive games.  Does having cash prizes associated with a game make you more likely to play that game?

TGT 163 On Topic: (Prelude) Playing Games For Money

This isn’t really our episode for this week.  Just a teaser since travel back from London is unpredictable.  But fear not, we will have the real episode up within the next 24 hours…

TGT 161 On Topic: Living That Dragon Life

So this episode started out one way and ended up some place else.  Maybe we covered what we were going for (with our initial intro), or maybe we just covered how to be a dragon.  We’re not saying it’ll make sense after you listen, but at least the topic title will be explained…

TGT 160 On Topic: Paying to Play/Win

This week we talk about the value of playing games.  As in, is it worth it to pay for a DM to play D&D with?  What about paying for table space to play a board game?  If it comes with an instructor?  And finally, what about those games you have to keep paying for to stay competitive in?  Also, of course, we talk a bit about KeyForge…

TGT 159 On Topic: Designers and Publishers

This week Kitty and Chris talk about notable designers and publishers.  It might be a conversation about what designers have changed the industry, or cause others to mimic them, or are recognizable by the rules of their game alone.  Or it might just be a conversation about some big names and how versatile they are…

TGT 158 On Topic: Print and Plays

This week we’re talking about print and play games and why we never play them, but maybe should?  Also we discover Etsy is a good place to get other people to do all the work involved in printing out these games.  At least for one such game…

TGT 157 On Topic: Reviewers

This week we’re taking look at reviews and the people that make them.  Nobody specific, we just talk about reviews in general.  And Chris and Fletcher really get into it when we start talking about paid reviews. You’ve been warned…

TGT 156 On Topic: Fun – Revisited

Way back in episode 4 we talked about what makes games fun for us.  Well now we have Fletcher and three more years of gaming so we want to look back and see if our ideas of fun have changed over the years.  You don’t have to listen to episode 4 before this one, but we did.
