144: Special Guest – Kim Brebach from Good Games Publishing, My Little Scythe, Cascadia, Land vs Sea

Oct 5, 2021

On this episode Sarah, Jules and Adrian are joined by Kim Brebach from Good Games Publishing. He talks about his journey into game design, his mission to find games that have incredible depth, and his development approach to playtesting new games.

In our Sizzling Games segment Adrian has been enjoying My Little Scythe with his family, Kim has discovered the joy of  Cascadia, and both Jules and Sarah have been carefully placing (and stealing) tiles in Land vs Sea.

In the Bracket Battle 2.0 we announce the winner from last week’s Blood Rage vs City of the Big Shoulders, and then launch our next battle: Anachrony vs Kanban EV. Jules and Adrian go head to head in this battle, so we have to call in an expert to split the difference! Make sure you vote for your favourite on our socials to make sure it goes through to the next round.

Finally, in Swear An Oath Jules has started painting his Unsettled miniatures but is still determined to beat that last level. Meanwhile Sarah completed The Initiative and Adrian has the 2010 edition of Vinhos lined up. Kim joins in the action and swears to revisit Scythe to reassess his opinion, and Jules, Adrian and Sarah all swear to have a Paint Party!
