If you’re new to board game design, this audiobook will show you what to do to avoid the same costly and time-consuming mistakes that this experienced game designer made when he was first starting out. Not only that, but he has also reached out to his following of over 1,300 game designers to learn what miscues they made and what mistakes they commonly see other new game designers make.

Do you have a board game idea but can't get it out of your head? Use my "four I's" framework and you'll get your game to the table and quickly discover if it will be the next Cards Against Humanity (hint: good!) or the next Trump: The Game (hint: not so good!).    

Making a great board game and pitching it to publishers are two completely different things. If you've got a game that you want to share with the world but don't know what to do next, this book will help you navigate through exactly what steps to take.

Haven’t you always wanted to know what it would be like to work for a publisher? Or what it’s like to be a freelance game designer, developer, or artist? Or whether you can still work on your own games once you’ve signed that contract to work full-time for a publisher? You’ll discover all this and more as we dive into the pros and cons of working in-house vs. freelancing as well as how others got into these roles and what they have learned.
