Join us for an exclusive interview with the designers of 'Sankore', Fabio and Mandela, a game that takes players back to the era of Mansa Musa and the renowned Sankore Madrasah. In this detailed discussion, we will explore their design process, historical research, and the unique challenges faced in creating a game that intertwines rich African history with intricate eurogame mechanics.

Discover the creative journey behind 'Sankore', from conceptualisation to final product, and the role of historical consultants in ensuring authenticity. This is a must-watch for enthusiasts of historical board games and those interested in the intersection of history, culture, and gaming.
