Welcome to another from the lost archives of dinners with Corey. Back in July of 2022, during Dice Tower East, when we thought the world was going back to normal, I was fortunate enough to corner one Ignacy Trzewiczek, founder of Portal Games, designer of Robinson Crusoe, Imperial Settlers, and many more. Before you ask …
Welcome back to the final installment of a summer interview with game designer Henry Audubon. It might be summer 2022, but who’s counting? We have finished a fabulously filling Indian feast. We are making our way out of the restaurant and back to the hotel and convention center for RageCon. And, as true geeks are …
I have recently escaped from the very end of RageCon in Sparks, Nevada with the designer of Parks, Trails and Cosmoctopus Henry Audubon, and we are enjoying a wonderful Indian feast.

And now, it is sadly time for the last segment of my interview with tabletop game designer, video game designer, philosopher, Tim Fowers. We are both happily full, I am reasonably caffeinated, and the welcome warmth of the Utah sun lures me to ramble in streams of semi-consciousness.
