Introducing the Tokyo Board Game Club!
Hello everyone, and welcome to the Tokyo Board Game Club!
If you’ve visited our YouTube channel recently, you might have noticed a major fresh coat of paint. This past May, we officially transitioned the Esper Game Studio YouTube channel into its next evolution: a dedicated media hub designed to bridge the gap between the incredible Japanese tabletop scene and the global board game community.
Don't worry, we are absolutely still making and designing board games! We just have so many ideas and so much passion for this industry that we couldn't resist building a bigger table for everyone to sit at. We will continue to share updates, designer diaries, and news about our own projects right here on the channel.
To kick things off, check out our quick introduction video featuring one of your hosts, Gavin, alongside Esper Game Studio designer Rodrigo as they break down the vision for this new chapter:
Moving forward, you can look forward to regular content produced in both English and Japanese, including:
Games playthroughs
Spotlights and previews of new and upcoming titles.
In-Depth Interviews with the brilliant designers, artists, and publishers shaping the industry.
Behind-the-scenes and insights into the creative process of game development.
