GMS Magazine Podcast - RPGs, Board Games reviews, interviews, advice. Mostly Asian and Indie games.

In this episode I am joined by Nathan Lusk to talk about his Asian themed boardgame called Daimyo Senso and his quest to have it fully manufactured in the USA. I got to ask him about the game and how it plays, but also about his reasons to want to keep it national and what have been the struggles.

In this episode, Chris and I talk about recent events and the abuse people face in the company. We talk about how to identify it, what to do, and also if you are caught as an abuser, we have some advice.

I am joined by the ever amazing Chris Dias with a very special guest:  Ignacy Trzewiczek, to talk about Dune: House of Secrets.

This episode features an interview with Christoffer Sevaldsen, author and designer of Black Void, a terrific RPG I read last year that made to the top 10 list.

 

It took me a while to read the book because it is pretty huge, but there isn’t a single page that is not worth reading. Being one of the most Planescape games I have read since Planescape, I think it has a lot to offer and people should pay a lot of attention to it.

 

I wanted to ask Christoffer about the origins, how he’s developed the game, what was the idea behind the setting and mechanics and what’s going to happen from now on.

The Board Room: Session Zero with Chris Dias. What sort of board game podcast are we going to have? Chris and I talk about plans for the future!

Mark Seifter and Dave Nelson answered some hard questions in this interview about the recently established Paizo workers union.

I talk with Pauline-Fate Kong and Marie Wong about Steam Up! A feast of Dim Sum, on Kickstarter at the time of publishing.

This podcast is made for people like you. Thank you for being there. Welcome to the GMS Podcast episode 425 a podcast about the people who make and the people who play tabletop board games and roleplaying games.

Once upon a time in the Far East, deep in the mountains of a mythical land, there was a world-renowned Dim Sum restaurant by the name of Steam Up.

It was the first restaurant of its kind to achieve the three Gold Ingot status. According to the Gold Ingot Guide, Steam Up was best known for its top 5 most popular Dim Sum: juicy shrimp dumpling, tender meat dumpling, soft and fluffy BBQ meat bun, flavorful sticky rice, and exotic phoenix claw. These heavenly tastes drew food enthusiasts and gourmets from all over the world!

Come join us on a feast of Dim Sum. You are invited!

I am Paco García and in this episode… I talk with Pauline-Fate Kong and Marie Wong about Steam Up! A feast of Dim Sum, a lightweight boardgame for 2 to 5 people that plays in 40 to 60 minutes and has been designed with the cultural background of the designers very much in mind.

I talked with both designers about their background in gaming, how they have gone about designing and making sure the game is solid both in mechanics and production, what was the motivation and the reception the game has had.

I even make a prediction on the number of backers this game will have in Kickstarter and have a request for a very special edition of this game that I am sure you’ll all want to see too.

I am Paco García and in this episode… I talk with Bassey Onwuanaku about her game café in Abuja, Nigeria, and how finding out about her daughter learning through gaming, has led her to create Lyndem Edutaiment, an organisation that wants to spread education through gaming all over Nigeria.

We talk about the beginnings, her plans, how games are helping children and teachers and the future she would like to have for the organisation, as well as the games she’s designing and would like to see published.
