We're publishing this episode on May the Fourth...so we somehow wrangled superstar designer Corey Konieczka (Star Wars: Rebellion, Star Wars: Imperial Assault, Star Wars: Destiny, and Star Wars: Outer Rim...phew!) for our Star Wars special show. Now at his own studio Unexpected Games (The Initiative, Voices in my Head, 3000 Scoundrels), Corey humors our geeky Star Wars board game questions and discusses what makes a design transcend its mechanics.

(And did someone say Jar-Jar Binks Deck-Builder...?)
