Will It Game? Podcast: Recent Episodes
One Board Family
We pitch crappy board games so you don’t have to. Join Ric and Ryan as they share misguided board game designs with guest judges from around the board game industry.
This week, our guest judge is Alex Kessler of Kess Entertainment. His love of pirates is challenging Ric and Ryan to pitch two pirate based games that are very different. Will Ric’s modern take on piracy impress our guest judge? Will Ryan’s pun-based board game give our judge the slight chuckle that he’s looking for?
