The Most Dangerous Games – A Conversation With…KeyMaster Games about Campy Creatures

Tom GurganusGo Forth and Game, Interviews

In this Most Dangerous Games episode I talk to Jennifer Graham-Macht of KeyMaster Games about their game, Campy Creatures. This is a ghoulish trick taking game of deception and bluffing about mad scientists and their creatures capturing citizens for nefarious purposes. The game is getting a second edition and an expansion so wanted to get the lowdown on these and about KeyMaster Games. Here’s the link to the Kickstarter page. As always thank you for listening!

Is one play enough for a good review?

Tom GurganusGo Forth and Game

Ok, I’m opening up a big ole can of worms with this one. Is one play enough for a good review? Should a reviewer play a game more than once to do a review? Is a one play review really just an impression or is it adequate for a good review? What about previews? Every Kickstarter has to have at least three or four to be taken seriously. So are they legit ‘reviews’ since the game and components could change in production?
