The Ludogogy Podcast The Ludogogy Podcast

We can’t believe it’s been all that time since the Ludogogy podcast first saw the light of day. And yet here we are, 17 episodes in, so Antonis and Sarah thought it was time for a review. We’ve had some amazing guests over the last year and a bit, and here’s your opportunity to catch up on any episodes you might have missed. You wouldn’t want to pass up the chance to learn from the creators of such seminal games as World Without Oil or Wingspan or even to get the low down on Player Types from the man who invented the idea, now would you? All this and more is waiting in our back catalogue. Think of this as the Table of Contents.

If you’ve ever played a MMORPG, then much of what you experienced has its roots in the work of Richard Bartle. The co-creator of MUD - Multi-User Dungeon - in the late 1970s, Bartle has influenced designers of virtual worlds since then and is the go-to resource for academic insight in that field. Many have found Dr Bartle through his ideas on Player Types, which show us not only that there are many different motivations to play but that those reasons can shift for a player during extended play, like MMORPGs. Join us as we explore the past, present and potential futures of virtual worlds.

In this month’s episode of the Ludogogy podcast, we’re talking to the guest most requested by our previous guests, who should know a thing or two about great game design! Helping us to explore the theme of ‘Identity’ is Rae Nedjadi, renowned TTRPG designer and creator of such games as BALIKBAYAN, Apocalypse Keys and Our Haunt, but whose back catalogue also includes dozens of other innovative play experiences, using resources like tarot cards, or framing play as ritual, for example. What all these diverse games have in common, though, is a rich vein of storytelling and belief in the transformative power of play. Tune in and discover why Rae is the game designers’ game designer!
