Description
Legacy games can often light a classic franchise back on fire, as demonstrated by Flash Point: Legacy of Flame's successful Kickstarter. We asked Legacy of Flame codesigner Ken Franklin (The Mansky Caper, Back to the Future: Dice Through Time, Tsuro: Phoenix Rising) to share some insight into how they turned the long-running co-op series into an evolving legacy experience. And while we're on the subject, what are other legacy games that we're fond of? And on a very unrelated topic, Ken educates us on the recent wave of gameplay-focused, Christianity-themed board games. Timeline: 3:53 - Going Analog's game pick: ArcheOlogic. 10:03 - Ken's game pick: Kingsburg. 14:57 - Going Analog's topic: The development of Flash Point: Legacy of Flame, plus other legacy games we like. 32:37 - Ken's topic: Christian themes in gaming.
