Board Gaming With English

On this week’s episode of Board Gaming with Education, Dustin sits down in person with Michael Cosimini, a pediatrician and teacher at Keck School of Medicine in Los Angeles, California. The two discuss Michael’s history with gaming as well as designing games and we get to learn about Michael’s antibiotic-based card game, Empiric. Michael tells how he transitioned the game from being used in his own classroom to being sold to other teachers around the world. The topic of reliable feedback comes up and Michael shares tips for beginner game designers on what to do to have the most success when starting their first game.
