Quotes (from this video)
  • I just use games as kind of an extension of that as another as a thing to communicate
  • I just simplified it I just gave everybody stats
  • the thing is the game has to be fun on its own if it's not fun on its own then it's not going to be fun as a classroom game
  • the worst educational experience I've had with an education game is escape room
  • I have found that I like I like hard games that kick my butt as a solo player but I'm way more forgiving when I'm like playing with other people
  • Earthbound Rangers is just a lovely fun game it's a campaign game and I hate Campaign games so it's doing something right
