Whether by planting a seed or laying a foundation, the focus for the SnakesCast this week is growing things or building them. Today, Wednesday April 25th 2018, we continue the discussion with some more game examples, and also begin to notice a pattern in the games that stand out to us.

Building or Growing Games, Part 2 - Planting the seeds

The world of tabletop games is a lot bigger than most people realize. In fact it's so big that the idea of investigating it can actually be kind of intimidating. When you see all those games you've never heard of, with rules and concepts and themes you've never seen before in a game, it's hard to know where to start.
The answer is: start with the SnakesCast. Every week, we'll bring you ten or fifteen minutes' worth of banter about what makes these games worth playing. With a different theme every episode and a rotating cast of both gurus and non-gurus from Toronto's premiere boardgame café, we'll show you just how much there is to play with out there.
