Episode 192 - What We Talk About When We Talk About the Five Types of Rules
In this podcast, we've talked a lot about games, mechanisms, and the rules that call these things forth from the page and bring the game to life on our table. We haven't, however, talked a lot about rules themselves, in the what even really are rules, man, kind of way. This is an oversight that we try to correct in this what we talk about episode on the topic. This episode was built around the five types of rules discussed in The Rule Book: The Building Blocks of Play (mitpress.mit.edu/9780262547444/the-rule-book/) by Jaakko Stenros and Markus Montola. You can buy this book here (mitpress.mit.edu/9780262547444/the-rule-book/) (not a sponsor).

    Guys, I absolutely adore your discussions - been a fan for many many months, but I always listen to your conversations via the third party app and I never have the opportunity to thank you for all those lovely talks. Keep doing GREAT job! If I were to make my Feld tier list, it would be something like this: 10/10 Bruges (+ expansion) The Castles of Burgundy 9/10 Trajan Bora Bora In the Year of the Dragon Luna Amerigo Notre Dame (+ expansion) 8/10 Carpe Diem Bonfire The Castles of Tuscany Jorvik / Speicherstadt (+ expansion) 7/10 Macao Aquasphere The Oracle of Delphi Rialto Forum Trajanum The Castles of Burgundy: The Dice Game 6/10 Marrakesh La Isla 5/10 The Name of the Rose

      @@SirLoin027 Podcast is still going with weekly episodes! Doing the show weekly is very time-consuming, and between prep, recording, editing, writing show notes, and uploading, I just ran out of fuel to also edit the pod in After Effects, create a thumbnail, and upload to youtube. This was overly ambitious in the first place. That said, I would love to upload the backlog to youtube in the future should I get a free weekend to work on it. Returning to weekly youtube uploads is a long-term goal. -Jake

    Man, that's a brilliant title and a preview image!! Before I needed to force myself to start your podcast. The title and image just didn't tempt me at all, but i started listening, just because someone recommended your podcast to me. But NOW I can't help, but I must listen this one, because I want to know, what is hidden behind the interesting title and preview image! Good job!! :) (By the way, I didn't even start listening yet, while writing this. :) )

    Thank you for an interesting podcast! I'm happy I started to listen it. I feel your show has much more potential than it seems to have. I was hesitant to start listening, because there was no much anything to encourage me to. Video's/podcast's title was not so tempting, image neither, length seems too much. And those are the only things to which I base my decision to click or not, isn't it? Only thing made me to click was that I was recommended to listen your first podcast and enjoyed it. Otherwise I would not have come back to you. I would recommend you to browse internet for a day or two and study, how to make a title and preview image to a youtube video, so that it tempts people to watch/listen. There are plenty of tutorials for that. Simple tricks, which make difference. Specially the title, but image too. Also there are tons of other marketing things, if you want to go into it. :) This show has a nice potential. Thank you for a pleasant hour of listening and wish you all the best!

    I’ve heard of fox in the forest but never really interested until hearing this episode. Me and my wife really like dueling games. And this might be another lost cities feel for me and her. We learned it together and got better together and then got to another level of experience after about 30+ plays against each other which shows how amazing experiences together against one opponent can be for multiple plays.

      Hi Beau, co-host chiming in. My wife and I had a very similar experience with Lost Cities as well (what a stellar game). I think if you two enjoyed delving into that together then The Fox in the Forest would fill a similar niche while feeling totally fresh. Thanks for having a listen and leaving a comment!
