Jamey Stegmaier, designer of Scythe, is back on the show, and we’re talking about what the schedule of a pro game designer looks like. It’s easy to have a romanticized idea of what being a full time designer is, but it doesn’t quite line up with reality.
We talk about the daily fires that have to be put out, how to be intentional with your time, ways to become more efficient, and much more.

Like the plot of every time-travel movie ever, Matt and Quinns have officially gone too far into the past and may never be the same again.

Finally, the group discuss some folk games sent in by an anthropologist... which are played by monkeys. Join us for the critical analysis of Magic, but stick around for our description "Hair In Mouth Game".

Ryan Laukat, founder of Red Raven Games, discusses how to create a beautiful game that is also functional.
