    Episode 21 - Opinion on Player Interaction in Board Games

    Welcome back to the BrainCast! In this episode, John and Chris from Brainwave Games take a look at player interaction and how best it fits into games. Interestingly enough, when they hear the term "player interaction", these guys think of two different things! Listen to what they think on player interaction from a mechanic and emotional standpoint but also how best to try and plan for its incorporation into a board game design. As always enjoy the episode and happy gaming! Don't forget to checkout our Kickstarter coming out on April 25th! Here is a link to our Kickstarter (preview) Page. Can't wait for y'all to enjoy!

    Episode 17 - To buy a holiday themed game or not to buy a holiday themed game?

    Chris and Johnny from Brainwave Games tackle the holiday themed game! As they head into October, Chris and Johnny felt it was a good time to discuss the ever perplexing but sometimes interesting holiday themed game, analyzing the purpose of these types of games, if its more difficult to design a game for a holiday season, and what might their favorite holiday and holiday inspired game might be!  Be forewarned, this is not a top 10 list episode (both Johnny and Chris don't care for those so they didn't make one!)

    Episode 16 - Review Round-Up - Oh those enigmatic IP Games!

    Welcome back listeners! On today's episode, Johnny takes a deep dive into IP games. He looks at what makes them so interesting and unappealing at the same time, if knock-offs are as good as the real thing, and if its worth the hassle to work within the confines of a IP license for your game or just stick to your original design.  (Sorry for the delay between this episode and the last one, personal responsibilities came up and we both have had to adjust our schedule accordingly. But that is behind us now and we should be able to drop episodes more frequently!)

    Episode 14 - BBBG #5 - Legacy Mechanic

    Welcome back all! Join Chris and Johnny as they dive into another 3BG (Build a Better Board Game) episode and talk about the mechanic of "Legacy". This3BG episode is a little different as it takes on more of an opinion feel to it but that is due to the strange nature of the "Legacy" mechanic. Chris and Johnny try to determine how it differs from the "Campaign" mechanic, what are the benefits or downsides of implementing this mechanic and if its even worth adding to your boardgames. So without further ado, lets get this episode started!
