This is Episode Zero of a new video series Shelf Stories. Jason will review specific games though the lens of cultural critique, specifically what I call CASE - Cultural Appropriation, Stereotyping, and Erasure. In this show, Jason explains what he means by each of these contentious concepts. As always, the intention is toward being constructive and to initiate open, respectful dialogue.

Frank West, the founder of City of Games and designer of Isle of Cats, joins to discuss cultivating enthusiastic, positive communities that buy games, have fun, and manages itself against negative elements. We get into a lot of facets of this one, particularly the idea of the Five, Five, and Ninety Percent. Five percent of communities are superfans, five percent are utter jerks, and ninety are people who want to hang out and have fun. How do we access and cultivate that ninety percent in positive ways? How can we tell when an angry person is among the Ninety and just upset, or if they are actually just a jerk not worth engaging? We get into that and a lot more in this one.

Danni Loe from Pandasaurus Games and James Hudson from Druid City Games rejoin the show to talk about the benefits and increasing drawbacks of producing games through Kickstarter. KS provides upfront cash and immediate feedback from fans, which is great. It also has huge issue with lack of moderation, the move to blockchain, and overall unresponsiveness to the very creators it says it wants to highlight. James and Danni break all of that down for you.
