“Systems, whether they’re explicitly presented in the form of games or not, dictate and shape our lives, like water being held in an awkwardly shaped vase. Maintaining a sense of frustration and anger at the shape forced on your existence, and that of countless others, is of the utmost necessity for a politically productive life.”

“To develop a long-term relationship with a board game is to tease out the intricacies of all the different ways it can nudge you and shape the way you approach a variety of situations and possible interactions with people.”

“The special thing about games, and tabletop games in particular, is the way they actively train you to think from within their rules. Other forms of art do this too, but in a more roundabout way that requires a certain sensitivity and willingness to taken in by the television show you're watching or the book you're reading. With games, it's a prerequisite. If you don't think the way the game wants you to think, at least a little bit, you're not really playing the game at all.”
