On this episode of TCG Design Theory, Jay talks with Hunter Angell, creator of the Nostalgix TCG, about building a community around your trading card game.

You could create a TCG that is truly spectacular, but if no one knows about it, you're going to have a hard time building the game from there. Starting and maintaining a community of fans and players can be a daunting challenge.

Hunter touches on just a few of the many ways to start building a following, whether it be digital, in person, or both!
