Interview with 'The Storyteller' Steven Medway - Blood on the Clocktower Designer

Board Game Gateway

Steven Medway is the Creator and Designer of one of the world's most popular Social Deduction games, 'Blood on the Clocktower' and the Board Game Gateway Crew are lucky to have him in the studio for an in-depth conversation. We talk about his inspirations, design philosophies, plans for the future, and much more. Damien, Ralph and Neeber are super excited for you to have a peak behind the curtain as we talk with the original Storyteller of Blood on the Clocktower. Is he an Imp in Diguise? Perhaps a Damsel in Distress just looking for his hunter? Or maybe just a drunk who thinks he's a Scarlet Witch? You can find out in a very special episode of the Board Game Gateway Podcast.
