#12 - Workshop - Mark Swanson & Feudum
11/21/20 • 55 min
In this beautiful 12th episode of the HEX&CUBE podcast, Kyle figuratively and presumably literally sits down with Mark Swanson to talk about his game Feudum. They explore some of Mark's approach to this design, some challenges he faced, and his experience with Kickstarter. If you enjoy the warm, sultry voices of guests matched with the shrill, hesitations of the host, you're gonna love this episode.

#11 - Hangout - Favorite Designers & Yokohama, Haspelknecht, On Mars
By golly, we have made it to episode 11! George Lucas would be proud! I am joined for the first time by friend of the podcast, Luke Rensink, a fellow heavy-game lover and game designer. We talk about some okay games and some great games in our game night segment, and then transition into a discussion about some of our favorite designers, like Kenneth Johnson and Merle Robbins. Hey, how about your John Hancock?!

#13 - Hangout - Favorite Older Games & Alhambra, Brick & Mortar, Sagrada, Azul, Point Salad
There are four seasons in a Midwestern year, and this is the last episode of our first season.
Sorry, that was probably confusing.
In this final episode of Season 1, Kyle brings Luke and Michael back on the show to give Descent more credit than it's due, and to also talk about old games. We talk a little about the excellence that is El Grande and how the Chess is still good after all these years. If both parties are willing to work at it, you can keep the fire alive through anything!
I genuinely am grateful for all the support thus far, and I'm really excited about the future of the show. Let's get it.
