Mark Specter, founder of Grand Gamers Guild, joins Jason to talk about the cultural aspects of his latest game, Gorinto - an abstract game with a theme drawn from Japanese Buddhism. A designer diary on BGG about Gorinto recently caused a social media kerfuffle. Mark talks about cultural awareness, when games cross a line, and a host of other topics. We don't hold back in this one!
