Listen "Season 1, Episode 40: Board Game Streamlining"
Episode Synopsis
In Episode 40 of Cards and Cubes, we talk about games we've recently played including Carnegie, Glasgow, and Treasure Hunter.
Then we have a discussion about board game streamlining prompted by Pingyao: First Chinese Banks, mentioning a variety of Vital Lacerda games, CGE games, and others. Highlights include simplicity vs streamlining, thematic integration, flow, smaller versions of larger games, and some examples of arguably insufficient rulebooks.
Games on the horizon for us this week include Stroganov, Paladins of the West Kingdom: City of Crowns, Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition, and Funfair.
