Jay Dragon - The Magpie's Cube

This week, Jay Dragon joins me to talk about game design through the lens of The Magpie's Cube, a whimsical sticker cube that gives players license to create. Jay is the Lead Game Designer at Steve Jackson Games and the Editorial Director at Possum Creek Games. We discuss the power and potential of stickers, the joy of unraveling Magic's grammar, outsmarting games (and being okay with being outsmarted), and much more.
