The State of Games, Ep. 132: The One About Origins 2017

stateofgameslogonewGreetings dear listeners, it’s time to sit back and take a trip with us to Columbus, Ohio for one of our favorite cons of the year – Origins Game Fair! This will be the sixth Origins that we’ve covered on the podcast and we discuss many familiar things like the Three-Legged Mare, late-night gaming, and tons of great unpublished games on the tables. However, this is the first Origins where we had a near-death experience on the podcast! We can laugh about it now, but we thought we had lost Eric Handler there for a minute or two – you’ll just have to hear it to believe it.

    Hey guys,

    I’m the designer of Escape from Nemo’s Island that is mentioned in episode 132. If you could, would you add the game’s Facebook page to the show notes? It’s https://www.facebook.com/EscapeFromNemosIsland

    Thanks for the great synopsis of the game.

    -Ed
