Episode 16: We’re Not Wizards - No Dread, or even a Saga, just some ro-Mantic Games - Matt Gilbert

WARNING There are some audio issues in this episode that hopefully don't detract from the interview.   Richard was delighted to be joined by Matt Gilbert, the COO of Mantic Games. Mantic Games are a UK based boardgame company that have released a popular range of games including Kings of War, The Walking Dead,  Dead Zone, Dreadball, Mars Attack and Dungeon Saga primarily using Kickstarter. Together they talk about Matt's history of boardgames before discussing the Dungeon Saga Kickstarter campaign, covering what was learned from the challenges they faced and what they have implemented for future Kickstarter projects. They also chat about plans for the future including the release of a Fighting Fantasy series of books, one of which Matt himself wrote.  Richard also gets a bit excited at the prospect of Star Saga, the newest IP from the company. We thank Matt very much for his time.
