Building a video series about board games takes a lot of long, unpaid hours! When i involuntarily left my puzzle design job in 2017, i decided to make these videos while sending out applications for something new, just to keep myself busy and to keep to a schedule. Throughout my career as a game designer and puzzle crafter, i’ve become so specialized that opportunities are few and far between. Nights Around a Table is my attempt to create a job for myself that is suited to my unique creative skillset.

If you like what i’m doing and want to see me continue (and thrive!), please consider helping me out. i’ve compiled a list of things you can do to support Nights Around a Table, and most of them are FREE!

Like, Dislike, or Comment on a video!

To those YouTube robots, engagement is engagement. Clicking the thumbs-up button is just as good as clicking the thumbs-down button – to the robots, it just means people care enough about the content to respond to it. It’s the same story if you leave a comment: that tells the robots that you care enough to say something, so they’ll be more likely to recommend Nights Around a Table to others.
