#128: The Means of Production with Richard Simpson

We're joined by Richard Simpson of We're Not Wizards, who is definitely not a magician, Victorian or otherwise, to talk about the line between game design and production. Should production values be an integral part of the discussion of a game's merits, or should we learn to separate the two? Before we get productive, we talk about Doughnut Dash, Cities, Azul: Stained Glass of Sintra, and L.L.A.M.A.

21:37 - Azul: Stained Glass of Sintra
31:01 - L.L.A.M.A
35:25 - The Power of Production
35:34 - The Quacks of Quedlinburg
41:35 - The Last of Us Part II
47:15 - GKR: Heavy Hitters
49:24 - Cthulhu Wars
