A good board game design can use the world around us to give players experiences that they might never get a chance to have in real life. But are these games actually true to life, or are they glossing over some things? And how do game designers walk that line? In Immersed, we’ll talk to the people who know what it’s really like. Along the way, we’ll find out what it takes to make a game, from the moment of inspiration all the way to how the finished product is received. Join us in January 2019 as we take you deep inside the world of a game.
