Tim Fowers, creator of the Kickstarted-funded cooperative board games ‘Wok Star’ & 'Burgle Bros.' and the word-based deckbuilder ‘Paperback’, will share tips, tricks, and techniques to create a wholly unique tabletop experience and find funding to get it published.

Ethan Ham will take a quick look at some unexpected ways in which tabletop game design differs from video game design. Particular attention will be paid to looking at how the two media differ in terms of narrative, theme, and the design of mechanics.
