This week the lead designer of the Prisoner of Azkaban virtual expansion (POA) for the Harry Potter TCG Revival group is our guest on The Booster Pack bonus show: the Rare Slot!

In this episode Rands & HPTCGR’s Sammy DiSalvo discuss the high quality of work being put into the fan-revival for the Harry Potter Trading Card Game & also chat about their opinions on the very philosophy of TCG/CCG design.

Even if you are not a Harry Potter fan but are interested in CCG/TCGs in general, this is still an episode worth listening to. We chat about everything from factioning (ie color pie, tribal mechanics) in TCGs to the power of the emotional resonance that this genre of games can offer.

As always, if you have any thoughts on the episode, please do not hesitate to reach out via the links here. As you may have guessed, discussing collectible trading card games is something we love & we’d be happy to hear from you!
