Rules. The important part of a game. They are actually the game. But are you like me, fed up of reading them over and over because you have forgotten them or they are too complex or because you haven’t played the game in a while (that's more me)? So we are now going to babble about rules. Should they be complex? Should they be standardised? Should they all be made so the players can jump right in? Or should they be something we have to trawl through to get to the heart?

With the Covid-19 kicking up a storm, many countries are locking down their general populus for safety reasons. But what do you do with your time when you can’t go out or have your gaming group come over?
Sort out your collection. Put them in order or organise them into keepers and binners
Play online with BGA or Tabletop simulator. Even just over skype
Play with your family, now that they can run away.
Play solo. There are so many games now with a solo mode.

While we have a real life, bonafide publisher with us, let’s find out who are the designers that they would like to have working in-house. But before that, let’s see what thing that make a publisher, publish a game.
What do publishers look for in a game design?
If a designer has a game that fits into one of your “world’s” is that that you look for?
If a designer has this great game, but requires an IP’s, is this a good thing to search for?
We each list off 5 designers we’d have work for our production company (if we had one).

Board game that have a narrative. A story. A line of play. Should they be considered a real game or just a one off experience, if you can only play them once…?
Does a “only play once” game justify space on your shelf?
Does knowing the outcome spoil the second play?
Are there ways around the linier narration?

Have you picked up a game, thinking it would be the greatest thing since sliced bread and finding it more like burnt toast?
Are you finding it hard to make space on your shelf, because for some unknown reason your games seem to multiply?
Can you never seem to sell those crappy games that clog up your gaming pipes?
How do you cull your collection? Ebay, BoardGamegeek, buys sell groups, give them away?
Have we reached the point of no return, where there are more games than we need?
Burky and Badger are NOT going to give you any solutions. But want to discuss with you if our hobby has arrived at a bottleneck?
Are games too long or too short?
And what games are just right?
These are the things we will be babbling about with our guest Mike Fitzgerald

We all complain that there is “never enough time.” But there is alway time to squeeze in a game anywhere. Whether it be 5 minutes before going to bed, on a train/plane ride to somewhere, on a rainy holiday, just before a meal, or after a big event.
But before we give you a top 3 short game and long games list. We are going to discuss whether we think that designers think about time in the development of games.
This up and coming show will be about the life of board games. What game from 2016 will still be played, and still be on store shelf's in 10 years time?

It’s fast approaching that time of year that you either love or dread. What camp do you fall in?
Do you got a big list of Board games that you want?
So, do you expect to receive lots of games?
Do you do a secret Santa?
Do you go to the big stores to get your presents?
Do the big stores have a good selection of board games?
How do Big stores compare to our local friends store?
What percentage of Games do you buy online?
And what games do you buy for your non gamer friends?
Board games at this moment in time seem to me to have lots of unnecessary things added to them. Bigger components that do nothing but be bigger. Elegant start player tokens that bump up the price. Minis instead of tokens. Boards that you don’t use.
Is this a good thing?

Is this a good thing?
Do we want our games pimped before we decide to pimp them?
Are we happy to continue complaining about the price when it looks great?
Should upgraded components be sold separately?
Has change made gaming better?

#Nobody does it better - What...Kiss? The Language of love? Or Board Game Design?I’m talking about the french.
(Now, to state, right off that bat. These are MY opinions. It’s not the truth and maybe we will discover the truth as we debate the great designers.)
In the world of board games, there is one country that seems to be one step ahead of everyone else, than France. And it’s not because they have the biggest company in the world that eats up others. Check your shelfs! There are probably more french designer names than your local brand.
My question is, do the French (at this moment in time) have the best designers and publishers in the world? (At this time)
We'll be Babbling about rules explanations and advise that we would give. And if you have any advise too, join us or leave a comment in the guild.

“It does WHAT!” is a question that I hate getting asked while I’m teaching a game.
Teaching rules to a game correctly can make or a game. Have a game taught to you in a particular way will make you go and buy it immediately. Even if it is a pile of 6 year old bag of jerky. What tips can we give about teaching game…

For me, family games are the best part of this hobby. It’s a time where we leave particular corner of the house and meet face to face in one room (maybe in Dan’s case it’s an orange room!) It’s that time where I, personally, have the fondest memories of my past family and present. And playing a fun family game makes those memories more prominent than the time you were were up every hour to someone being sick. Or the day you sliced of a chunk of your finger at work, a day before you had to perform two concerts, on two consecutive days. Or…
So what are the key ingredients that make a family game a great family game?
Is it the theme?
Is it the player count?
Is it the playing time?
Accessability?
Replayability?
Is it the the fact you can backstab or work as a team?
Is it the mechanisms?
Is it the playing pieces themselves?
Make a list of your top 3 family games everybody should own for family.
Let us know your TOP 3 family games on our Bard Game Geek Guild

Good games never fade away. They get replayed over and over again. So, what is it that gives a game a long life?
Is it because it has a theme you love?
Is it because it’s different every time you play it?
Is it because of the the level of complexity/easiness that brings you back?
If you were a game designer, what would you do to make your game replayable?
Do we really need re-themed games?
