  • Summary

  • We’re joined by Sean Weeks to tackle Slay the Spire, the towering pinnacle of games design that went there and back again, transcending the analog/digital divide. We sail the card river of randomization and discuss the art of board game adaptations, the taxonomy of genre and whether co-op play can change player behaviour.

    Other games discussed:

    Dominion, Ascension, Aeon’s End, Frostpunk, Gwent
