Designing games around a playmat and a single component: Six Sided Seas
A few years ago, I visited Thailand for the CMON Asia Expo. My friend at Wise Box games gave me a wonderful tour of Thailand game shops. I saw a shop worker laminating a game board. Board games are expensive items in Thailand, and they were protecting the longevity of their public copy. I thought “What if the board was a playmat?” making it more appropriate for social settings where drinks are frequently present.

Treat, Please! Designer Diary
One day in the summer of 2019, I was sitting on the couch with my little loaf Trixie, watching her lick my hand over and over, so I would keep petting her. It made me think about all of the ways that she would get me to do things for her, like standing by the front door so I would take her for a walk or groaning at her food bowl, so I would feel guilty and feed her an early dinner. And then I thought, “There’s a board game here!”
