Play Saves the World
Is Play Essential to the Human Experience?
After naming some recently revisited games, Daniel discusses some lessons learned at a recent conference on play. Is play essential to the human experience? How can we games be more inclusive? How does play shape our early childhood in important ways, and can this include Minecraft? The discussion moves into play as a means of grace, and that play according to rules might be an analogy of grace and law. Pop culture jokes include the clap-on lamp from the 80s, and dad jokes include a can of diced tomatoes that secretly contains bookoo dice. Next episode: the book The...

22: Year in Review: Kickstarter Games Played in 2021
In this episode... Kellye and Aaron discuss the Kickstarter games that arrived this year, and also share the list of what they are still waiting to receive. We have small corrections worth mentioning for this episode: Kellye mentions the next Garphill Game series, but couldn't remember the name. That series will be Wayfarers, Scholars, and Inventors of the South Tigris, due to release in 2022, 2023, and 2024 respectively. Kellye misnamed a Kickstarter incentive called "Make 100" when mentioning Paper App Dungeon (she mistakenly called it "Make 1000"). Paper App Dungeon had over four thousand backers, hence her confusion...
