We're definitely in Camp Moar Roll 'n' Writes, and since you can download the fantastic and completely free Sunshine City from Coffee Bean Games, we invited designer Peter C. Hayward back to our podcast to talk some of our favorite lighter and heavier games in that genre. Shoe tries to articulate the idea of "hybrid" games of multiple ideas coming together to form one new product, and we discover Peter's complete fascination and almost encyclopedic knowledge of games you can play in a car.
Plus, Peter reveals details about the upcoming Sunshine City Kickstarter and an upcoming game to be published by BoardGameTables.com called Fiction!
