Everyday Meeple is a show about board games. That simple and that vague. Each week Steve and Mitch talk about the hobby they love. Sometimes they talk about the games they’ve been playing or the art and mechanics that bring those games to life. Some conversations drift through the history of board games or focus on a particular designer. If you love board games or are just getting interested you are bound to find something in their conversations. Everyday Meeple is the show where everyday people talk about everything meeple.
Welcome back. Or maybe just welcome. On this episode, Steve and Mitch talk about rulebooks. Really they just scratch the surface because that is a really huge topic. Too big to ramble about the whole of it in an hour.
On a side note, the Kathryn that Steve and I mention on the show is @ kathrynedowell on Instagram. Besides being an avid gamer and an up and coming designer she is also an all-around positive force in the hobby and out. She is a regular contributor to https://dayton.momcollective.com where she often writes articles that highlight inclusion and understanding. She writes about small gestures that while often overlooked can really add up to a better world.
[Mitch: I went on about a problem with Oracle of Delphi but it was really not accurate at all. Terrible. Reading comprehension is not a problem of the rulebook. I went back and it really is spelled out quite well as it should be. The problem was really me just skimming the rules to get things set up quickly. As far as examples go it was not just a bad example but not an actual example of what I was talking about. Yikes. Maybe the most embarrassing error I have had to admit to yet.]

We are back with another conversation about board game things. This time we talk a bit about Yahtzee and Yahtzee related things. Mitch does a horrible job explaining how to play Elder Sign and Las Vegas and Steve goes down a rabbit hole about Dead Heads and Cosmic Whimps.

The Video Game Episode - CHMA Aug 16 2020
In this episode, the conversation is about video games and how they intersect with board games. Mostly we focus on how the video game industry often creates a board game from successful game IPs and, well, what we think about that. Some games that come up are Undermining and Super Motherload, Mechs vs Minions, Doom, Descent, Dark Souls, Slay the Spire, God of War among others, nothing overly in-depth just a fun conversation.
Mistakes: Oops. There are probably plenty as always but one big stand out was not knowing the name for the Game Artisans of Canada group. I got it confused and called it the League of Canadian Designers - not the same.
