Folks- the interview you're about to listen to, in my mind, was one of the most fascinating I've ever recorded. Expert Theory is really doing revolutionizing work using traditional methods coupled with an intelligent AI platform. Eleanor and Jesse were wonderful to talk with- we hit it off immediately and had a lovely conversation. We've never really tackled the use (or even the potential use) of AI in game design here on the pod- this was a first! Please enjoy the conversation! Check out the Expert Theory website below.

Folks- this is a special one! On today's episode, I sit down with famed game designer Jason Morningstar, to discuss "The Blue Way- A game of lost stories"- an absolutely fantastic roleplaying game which focuses on the dangers of colonialism, the losing/changing of one's culture, and the aftermath of such events. This game is being published through 20SG's friends at the Center for Learning Through Simulations and Games (CLGS) at CMU (Central Michigan University). It was a delight chatting with Jason- he has a vast knowledge of games in general, and obviously a keen eye for design. Please enjoy the episode, and check out all the links below in the show notes!

Hey Folks! Please enjoy our latest episode with Columbia Games' Grant Dalgliesh! If you like block wargaming, look no farther than Grant and his father Tom, who are THE innovators. They are the OG- the originals- the people who really put this style of wargaming on the map. In addition- and I do not say this lightly- Alliance is a very unique game, one that combines tactical battles with grand strategy and negotiation. Most games that attempt to do something like this fail miserably, as they often suffer from what I like to call, "what am I?" syndrome. Alliance is one of the BEST Napoleonic games I've played. Period. Have fun with this one!
