Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

E 183. The Surprising Way Board Games Can Boost Your Language Skills!
Q: What would you tell other designers aiming to create educational games that feel like games first?
Be prepared to adapt your pitch to different audiences, join conventions to learn from others, and remember that the fun must come first; education can be layered on top once the game's core loop is engaging.
E 183. The Surprising Way Board Games Can Boost Your Language Skills!
Q: How do you balance language learning with gameplay to keep both aspects engaging?
By ensuring the core experience is a stand-alone game first; language learning is passive through phrases on cards, with pronunciation guides and opportunities to speak, while the game itself remains fun even for players who aren't focused on language.
E 183. The Surprising Way Board Games Can Boost Your Language Skills!
Q: What was the moment you realized you could design a game that teaches language rather than a standard language tool?
The idea clicked during lockdown when I started combining teaching and gaming, prototyping a map-based early version and then realizing that making it genuinely fun was the key before focusing on language mechanics.
E 181. How will you Escape the Dungeon?
Q: What does play testing reveal about vulnerability and community feedback?
The team describes playtesting with over 500 people, welcoming both praise and critique, treating feedback as essential to growth and emphasizing that sharing vulnerabilities strengthens the product and the community.
E 181. How will you Escape the Dungeon?
Q: How has Adventure Pouch achieved accessibility for people with Calculeskia and other challenges?
Lady Leigh explained they are actively seeking an accessibility advisor, using minimal words, colors, and overstimulation to reduce overwhelm, and considering alternative dice text to accommodate dyslexia and similar conditions, with a plan to involve affected communities in decision-making.
