Episode 69 - Ganz Schön Clever (That's Pretty Clever)
This week we deep dive Ganz Schön Clever / That's Pretty Clever / Ganz Schön Whatever by the inspirational designer Wolfgang Warsch. Say what you will about the saturation of roll and write games in the market today. Way back in 2018, this clever little game was making major waves and bringing new attention to the genre. Does this game hold up amongst all the roll and writes that would follow, and what does it say about the genre at large. We talk about all this and more as we explore the decisions in our interdecisional spaceship!

Episode 67 - Games are Agency as Art with C. Thi Nguyen
We are joined by philosopher and author C. Thi Nguyen to discuss the ideas in his incredible book Games: Agency as Art. We touch on the value of games as an artistic medium, striving play vs. achievement play, flow state, and why fly fishing is the 18XX of, well, fishing. It's a fantastic conversation that will change the way you think about games.
For more of C. Thi Nguyen, you buy his book, find his website and articles here, and follow him on twitter.
