PiCast — SPIEL 2011 — Vlaada Chvatil

Finally, this is the forth and last of a series of four
interviews I did on my visist to the SPIEL 2011 in Essen. All of
these shows have been done in English (since the
Germans somehow managed to evade my microphones). I hope, you can
cope with my teutonic English for the sake of the interviewees.


I planned to have the interviews up during SPIEL, but it turns
out that editing takes a lot more raw hardware power than
recording and my mobile equipment was ill-fitted for this
purpose. Thus, the interviews are late. I'm sorry for that.


This concluding interview is with Vlaada Chvatil
from Czech Games Edition who had a small but
crowded booth at the SPIEL 2011. Vlaada is a well-known
Czech board game designer, famous for
Galaxy Trucker, Space Alert,
Dungeon Lords, his newest games
Pictomania and Dungeon Petz and
quite a couple more games which have been published
internationally.


We talk about his game design philosophy and cycle, how his
designs come about, his build-and-wreak-havoc-upon-style games
and a couple more smaller topics. If you have not yet played any
of his games, try some. He's got something for almost everyone!


So, I hope you liked the small series! If you have any
suggestions or other feedback, please let me know. After all,
that is the best way to improve for future interviews. So, let me
know!
