Description
On this episode of TCG Design Theory, Jay talks to Chuck Kallenbach, former game designer at Decipher and Sony Online Entertainment, about the different challenges of designing a TCG in the physical space vs digital space. Is it easier to design games in the digital space? Can designing a digital game lead to mechanics that are too complex? What design challenges are present in digital games that aren’t in physical games? Thinking about these types of questions will help you plan ahead in your design journey if you plan on having your game on a digital platform, even if it already has a physical presence.
