Do you mean rules have to be explained _before_ playing?

Hi. I like both boardgaming and rolegaming. Don't be afraid to say hi in your native language, I'll gladly try to learn and I'll reply in italian.

P,S, I'm sorry but my internet connection is going on and off, so I prefer turn based tables and/or turn based tournaments.

MarkSteere

Games developed: Silo, Dodo, Gopher

The interesting thing about games for me is just knowing the rules - of my own games and others. I like games with what I think of as architecture. For example, with Gopher and Dodo, the interesting feature is extreme simplicity. Extremely simple games won't be as unique as more complicated games. There are bound to be similar ones. But Gopher and Dodo are distinct games. I've programmed both of them for BGA.

I have little interest in actually playing games, although I will play my games that have been recently programmed. It's not torture for me, but again, just knowing the rules is sufficient. My so-called philosophy has been criticized for not concerning myself with quality of play, but this is me.

I'm only making games that cannot have draws, even if players want to have a draw. All of my games are original. I almost never make variants of existing games. One notable exception is Redstone, a Go variant. I will be programming Redstone for BGA soon. I'm not particularly into Go, or even Redstone (I've never actually played it with anyone). But again, it's the concept. Redstone uses neutral red stones for captures. It eliminates ko, and transforms Go from a point count game to a game of annihilation.

The one game I've been into long term, off and on, is Backgammon. I play obsessively for a time, grow tired of the dice race aspect, quit for a long while, and eventually start up again.
