#280: Equal and Opposite Interactions

#280: Equal and Opposite Interactions

We're veering into the dark roads of board game classification, but this time with a goal in mind - how to best highlight games that feature strong interaction. Shouldn't BoardGameGeek have a scale for that somewhere? And while we're at it, BGG ... Before we put our thoughts in the suggestion box, we talk about Guatemala Café, and Ride the Rails.

Timecodes:

01:56 - Guatemala Café
12:43 - Ride the Rails
23:09 - Quantifying interactivity
25:43 - A Feast for Odin
32:13 - Yucatan
34:31 - What else should be on a BGG page?
37:15 - Stationfall
44:20 - Biblios
