Balloon Pop Review with Tom Vasel

[@JonReid01]

Looks like a really interesting puzzle just from the teach, feels like reverse tetris, or those Robotnic's Bean Machine videogame which I loved back in the day. I guess how I can see it would maybe lackluster in person.

It seems like the game has great table presence.

Thanks be to God! It’s good to hear someone say it. Some board/card games are just better computer/video games. I think it’s fairly obvious that board games are in competition with computer games. And some designers are making some pretty complicated board games. I’m thinking of Root here. (I own all of it.) I don’t think I’ve watched every play through of Root, but all that I have watched have been played wrong. Why? Because it’s really complicated. You basically need a GM (Game Manager) to make sure everyone is playing it right. Otherwise everyone has to know how every other faction plays and keep a (helpful) eye on everyone else. GM = computer in this case. Yes, you can play it on the table. I have. It just seems like way to much work. Keep computer games on the computer and board games on the table.
