This week on the SnakesCast, we turn the focus on designers from Canada, many of whom are friends and visitors at the café. Today, Friday June 22nd 2018, we look at Toronto-based designers, including Paul Tseng, Steve Tassie, Jonathan Moriarty, Eric M. Lang (now in Singapore), Daryl Andrews and Christopher Chung. We also look at game designers' nights and how key they can be in the development process.

Canadian Board Games, Part 3 - Toronto designers and designers' nights

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.
