Sat, 31 March 2007 ![]() Earlier than any other board game podcast, Boardgame Babylon is very proud to bring you this Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Pre-Essen 2007 show, highlighting some of the exciting titles you can expect to see at the Spiel this October in Essen, Germany. It wasn't easy - I had to use all of my awesome power as a board game podcaster to muscle secrets out of the game publishing world, including bribing disgruntled developers who keep missing their chance for an on-box credit, wining and dining unscrupulous pawn production companies, pressuring disreputable playtesters, blackmailing the proofreader at Rio Grande and the translator at AdlungSpiele, strong-arming actual board game media types and also just searching the internet to bring you this very special, extra-early look at the best of Essen this year. So, listen with a pen and paper because you'll want to make your checklist for pre-orders now (and start entering those game entries on BGG because there's geekgold a-plenty to be had...) Also, listen carefully for the winners of the Ingenious Puzzles contest! Thanks for downloading and listening to Boardgame Babylon. Comments[7] |
