One Stop Co-Op Shop

Peter Gousis, Michael Kelley, Steve Kingsley

One Stop Co-Op Shop is a podcast about cooperative boardgames. Game designers & publishers, Peter Gousis & Michael Kelley host the podcast.

Every other week we take one game and break it down to it's top 5 points (the good, the bad and our overall impressions). After we discuss the game we have a design discussion about one of the parts of the game.

We will also have occasional podcasts reviewing solo games, and other special episodes.

296 | How Board Game Creators Feel About Kickstarter | with Jason, Danni Loe, And James Hudson

Danni Loe from Pandasaurus Games and James Hudson from Druid City Games rejoin the show to talk about the benefits and increasing drawbacks of producing games through Kickstarter. KS provides upfront cash and immediate feedback from fans, which is great. It also has huge issue with lack of moderation, the move to blockchain, and overall unresponsiveness to the very creators it says it wants to highlight. James and Danni break all of that down for you.

290 | Historical Tourism Games, Or Games That Lie To Our Faces | with Jason and Liz Davidson

Liz Davidson and Jason get together once again to discuss history in games in two parts. In this first part, we discuss Euro games and other mass market games that leverage history for attention, sales, and audience comfort. In seeking audience comfort, those games lie to our faces. We analyze examples of these games - Puerto Rico, AuZtralia, Hadrian's Wall, and more. We also chart some ways forward.
