Introductions to Niche Genres

<p>We're back with a very special episode, as co-host Ryan Anderson walks us through their design methodology for the combat in Wintermoor Tactics Club.  We break down how Ryan intentionally approached Wintermoor so that it would introduce new players to turn-based strategy games, and we use those same lessons to analyze how Fall Guys, One Night Werewolf, and Good Sudoku function as introductions to their own genres.</p> <p> </p> <p>Wintermoor Tactics Club is out now on PC, Switch, PS4, and Xbox One. </p>

We answer all these questions and more in this jumbo-sized Roleplay extravaganza.</p>

Quickplay - Death Stranding & Animal Crossing

<p>The gang breaks into Death Stranding and Animal Crossing, two games that are perhaps more similar than they first appear.  We discuss how adding friction to mechanics can make the player feel more present in the game world and debate whether there is such a thing as a wrong way to play a game.</p>
