If you don’t like it again, we will talk and we will have to make decision…’ For the past few weeks I had great time exploring different possible variants of the game and now what?! Abandon? Not moving forward? WTF? I did some changes, but if you don’t like it today I think I will abandon this project.’ We play and change the game and nothing works. He sat, put prototype on the table and before he set up the game, he said something like that: Every single week he was closer and closer to loose temper.

I play and I play, and I change things as many times as needed till the moment I feel that this is it.įor me all the changes, moving back and forth was fun.

Unfortunately, it was only my point of view… I was giving Michal my suggestions, asking him to change things, I was looking for best game play, tweaking in the game and every week he got long list of changes I want him to put into game.įrom my point of view we were doing great.

I, on the other hand, got this simple idea with Mancala rules – few days earlier I player Trajan and I really liked this ‘mancala wheel’ there but in my opinion it lacked something. He is good at this stuff and he was working fast and efficient… Michal told me about his idea and he began design different locations and cards. First version of Theseus was ready very quickly.
