Frosthaven – will you outlast the cold? And the Aglox at your door? We talk to Isaac Childres about following up Gloomhaven. It’s a huge task, almost as big as the boxes his games come in. We talk about the new crafting system, survival, the demands of the Gloomhaven community and get a few hints about future characters that we’ll be unpacking from the Frosthaven box.
Dungeon Degenerates: Hand of Doom – we enter the mind of Sean Aaberg to discuss his baroque neon-punk tabletop adventure game. We discuss the DIY punk movement, and whether we should look at games as machines, or as works of fiction.
Cowboy Bebop: Space Serenade – we talk to Japanime Games and Don’t Panic Games about turning the weird, and vaguely existentialist, world of Cowboy Bebop into a game for our tabletops. We get inside the mind of our favourite jazz-soundtracked anime.
Minecraft: Builders & Biomes – we discuss making the huge and complex world of Minecraft something we can experience on our tabletops with designer Ulrich Blum. Ready your pickaxe to go underground.
