Chariot Rider | [Design Deliberation] How Small World Fixes Risk @Chariot_Rider | Uploaded February 2018 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
This video discusses the design of 2 board games, Risk and Small World. Tabletop game design is a wide open field and today I dip my toe into that world. If it isn't obvious in the video, I don't think Risk is a well designed game, but I have always liked the idea of Risk. The idea of a streamlined game of world domination that puts a group of players into an arena that encourages direct player interaction.
