Join us all at The Drunk Druid for a chat on all things Puzzles vs Narrative in game design. For this episode, we're joined by the fantastic Nathan and Marcus who are hosts of the Aurelius Whitlock's Murder Museum podcast, and designers on hugely popular video game, Rise of the Golden Idol.
Enjoy!
As always the team have recommendations for your better enjoyment. This month, they are!
- Jamie Death and other details
Mandy Patinkin being Poirot on a cruise ship. What's not to like. - Mike James Lee - How I think Creatively
YT video - Frankly terrifying Youtuber giving advice on creativity as if he's cast himself in Sin City. - Nathan Blue Prince
Honestly the entire team lost their minds so completely as soon as this game got mentioned that I was sick a little in my mouth. - Marcus Elyot - 30 Puzzle Design Lessons
Another YT video - Frankly obscenely wide ranging and deep (and I mean deep, like, Oceangate deep) on puzzle design. - Mairi Uketu Strange Pictures
AN ACTUAL BOOK. ACTUAL PROPER CULTURE. THANK YOU MAIRI, THANK YOU. Oh wait it's by a Youtuber. However, a Youtuber that wrote a book that Mairi polished off in a single sitting. And, frankly (my word of the day), I have never met someone as easily distracted so, hats off Uketu. You broke Mairi.
Recommendations summarised by the editor, Jon; who was, by the end, so utterly enraged by having this entire set of show notes accidentally deleted that he really went off on one and then began writing about himself in the third person.
What a guy.
Hosts: Jamie Gibbs, Mairi Nolan, Mike Collins
