Thanks so much for having me on the BGDL show, Gabe! I had a great time chatting about games with you, it’s always fun to hear about the games other designers think are important to play from a design perspective. I’d love to hear about any other games people think designers should play in the comments 🙌

Great show yet again Pam! Also wow I've never seen Gabe's face before despite his voice being in my head for quite some time.

I got my wife playing board games by buying our daughter Azul as a Christmas gift. The beauty and quality of the tiles drew her in.

Bonus drinking game: take a drink every time I say “100%” 💯 💯 💯

There’s a funny Key & Peele skit where a football player being interviewed keeps answering “Oh, 100%”

Any game with a novel idea is worth playing I think! And in general, you can find novel ideas in almost every game. So my thinking is: play a lot of games!

@PamWallsGameDesign 8 месяцев назад

100% 😂

I know it would be a lot of work, but would be cool to timestamp where you talk about each of the games in the list in the description. Thanks for the work you do for the board game community!

I think Ticket to Ride was my friends and I first introduction to modern gaming as well. We then started playing Catan and it was a flood of games after that.

I haven't played any of the 4 that brings 90% of designers into the hobby 😬

Such a good listen.

I need to go to sleep but I just saw this video on my feed and so I added to the watchlist for tomorrow. I wonder if these games are to be played specifically with Pam 🤔😁

@BoardGameDesignLab 8 месяцев назад

Yes, of course😅

There are instances of adding tokens to the bag in Arkham Horror: The Card Game. The "A thing happened in the scenario that is good or bad, so add X to the bag" happens, but it is not an every scenario thing and is often limited to happening between scenarios of a campaign. One expansion also has Blesses (+2 and draw another token) and Curses (-2 and draw another token) tokens that are added in game as a result of card effects. Which adds an interesting layer to card evaluation as you have cards that are less powerful in their immediate effect but add blesses to the bag and on the other side more powerful effects than normal but add curses to bite you later.

Ah, brilliant. That game's bag system provides so many cool ways to mix up gameplay!
