Bucket List Board Gamers

In this episode Ben from Orcwood Games joins us to talk about Dirty Spatula, Unhappy Arrangements, and the pride of seeing players enjoy your game. 

We chat Kickstarter, creative risks, and why the best components sometimes have a secondary use! 

From navigating the challenges of independent publishing to balancing humour and heart in game design, Ben shares what it’s really like bringing an idea to life. 

Whether you’re a budding designer or just love a good board game story, this episode serves up plenty of insight, with a side of laughs!
