Episode 004 - Perfect Information

Cardboard Philosophy

They say knowledge is power… but what if you have too much knowledge? Does that mean you have too much power? If absolute power corrupts absolutely will this power from knowledge corrupt you? Will you become some sort of unhinged board game demigod if there is too much information given to you on the table?

We’ll never know!

What we will know by the end of this week’s episode is what makes perfect information tick! Evan, Robert and Steve dive into why it is fun, when it isn’t fun and why we would ever want to hide information from a player!
