I am really impressed with the attention to detail in Harvest. It's an adorable (but tight) farming game inspired by the Golden books.

While in PEI, I learned about using the PEI red dirt to make a tye-dye shirt. I started with a soak in soda ash and water (1 cup to 1 gallon), then used the red clay just like I would use dye. Came out pretty good!

I wish reality TV shows would stop using the Prisoner's Dilemma. Most of the time, it goes poorly and ends the show on a rotten note for all involved. Let the team win together and split the money for them, or have them fight it out to a single winner. Make TV that feels better.

If you are a game designer, the episode from People Make Games about wargaming will give you a lot to consider. As I make serious games, I've been invited by different governments to be involved. But even if you aren't directly involved, your games may be. youtu.be/lYaDXZ2MI-k?si…

If you enjoy rhythm games, take a look at Super Crazy Rhythm Castle, which is free on the EPIC store right now (until Sept. 19). It's very silly and I'm enjoying it. store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/super-…

I may have.. had a little rant.. in my class tonight talking about the difference in the game design between Werewolf and The Traitors. ok yes I did have a rant. (Not letting the good guys all win if any of them win encourages and rewards mediocre faithful play).

Know of board/card games that handle missing pieces, easy to teach, little down time, and have good table presence? We are doing a project for libraries in low-resource settings to suggest games that will last 10 years. Learn more and add suggestions here: docs.google.com/document/d/16a…
