To learn playing is one thing we start practising before we can even speak, and to learn languages playing is even better, which is what Kyle Simmons has done with his game Magicians: A Language Learning RPG that will teach you Korean.

Since Halloween is the time of the year when the veil between the living and the dead is thinnest, we though it’s be a good idea to talk with Dale and Vickey about horror games and also about zombies.
And talking Zombies, you might remember a short while ago I reviewed Outlive Outdead, from Happy Bishop Games. In this episode i have the pleasure of interviewing WJ McGuffin, the excellent writer behind the game and the concept of creating an RPG that’s actually competitive.

You might remember that a few episodes ago we started a discussion about art and role playing games. At the time, we had some difficulties with audio and Rob couldn’t stay online due to bad internet connection.
This time, Rob is in a much better place and can talk for ages about the subject, so we can hear what he has to say. And some of the things he says are very, very interesting, even if I have to throw a few challenging questions back at him!

With so many interviews from Spiel and so many episodes to come, including the ones for the RPG section of the podcast, it felt only right to record one episode with Dr Reddy to ask and answer questions about Spiel and the state of games at the show.

I couldn’t help myself! Should have waited for Dr Reddy to be around, but I had to give you my report on Spiel 2012.
The show was quite amazing this year. Children were on holidays so, unlike other years, they were able to attend the show before Saturday. This made the first two days a lot busier than they’d normally be. Usually they are a lot quieter and Saturday goes mental with number of people.

You might have seen my video in which I wonder if Role Playing Games are art and give a few examples. Well, Rob and Jenn join me in this podcast to chat about it and discuss whether our hobby can be considered a work of art.

The podcast breaks the 60 mark and enters in its 61st episode, which is something I wasn’t expecting. I usually get tired of things a lot sooner, so I guess you listeners are doing something right to get me going. So thank you for that!
Though the dear Doctor Reddy and I are a bit crazy, there is a lot of method and wisdom in our madness and we do talk games like true pros. Dr Reddy has organised a convention based on dyslexia and games, which is a very dear subject for me since I am dyslexic. Me, on the other hand, have received a few games, some of them not released yet (thank you publishers!) and you’ll probably want to hear about them because they are pretty stunning.
And there is the traditional interview and this time we have a true legend. Alfred Leonardi, the truly terrific mind behind Ace of Aces, a diceless aerial combat game from the early 80s that became very successful in Kickstarter recently.

We’re getting closer to 60! But for now we’re 59 episodes old and we’re having an amazing time!
With a teaser of interviews to come, Dr. Reddy and I discuss Kickstarter and, for once, we actually stay on topic for a long time!
