A New Way To Talk About Games (What We Talk About)

1 hour 8 minutes

Decision Space is a board game podcast about the decisions in games and now on YouTube.

Episode Twelve - We Invented a New Way To Talk About Games

There's Waxing and Waning and Dynamic and Static, but do you recall, the most famous decision framework of all?

Well, Brendan has really went and done it this time. That's right, he invented a whole new way to talk about games. On this episode, we'll talk about this new paradigm and way to frame future discussions of decision space on Decision Space. Woof. We admit it's a lot, but this isn't the time to sit statically by. Do a dynamic leap right into this week's podcast, where Jake and Brendan wax poetically while the runtime wanes down to nothing!
