Yes we're back with another interview episode, and this time we're talking to Gerardo from Beyond Words Games about his induction title... The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber!

We discuss the game, the inspiration, the origins of induction games, and quite pertinently, the role that reviewers and influencers play in the launch of a board game.

Apologies for the sound quality in places, we've tried to clean it up as best we can but the connection wasn't fantastic.

Enjoy!

The BGG Forum Post

You may well be familiar with Gerardo's name / Beyond Words Games thanks to a recent forum post on Board Game Geek, which we tried not to discuss too much in the episode for a couple of reasons. Firstly we were keen to keep the episode focused on The Strange Forgeries Of Mr. S.C.Rheber, and secondly it was, at the time, still a developing situation where some parties had not been given a full chance to reply.

As such some parts have been cut down to avoid confusion, and as a result it does sound like Jay talks a lot when the subject arises. Jay is aware he talks too much in general, but this time it wasn't his fault!

The situation has since been resolved, and we have discussed with Gerardo the possibility of a second episode to set things straight and talk about things from start to finish.

But if you'd like to know more about what we discuss you can check out the forum post here:
