Our guest is the award winning designer Mike Myler. He’s worked with companies like, Avalon Games, Fantasy Flight Games, Paizo Publishing to name a few. We wanted to discuss how Mike got into the business, some of the projects he’s worked on, what it's like to win an ENnie, and get some advice on how you could work towards writing that supplement or creating that game you’ve often dreamed of.

You can find out more about Mists of Akuma at mistsofakuma.com. He's not quite as active on his Facebook page but you can check that out under mike.myler. If you want to try out a cyberpunk setting using Pathfinder, check out Mike's work on HyperCorps 2099 at hypercorps2099.com.
Glenn's Review
Quadropolis is a quick playing family game for 2 - 4 players made by Days of Wonder. Your job is to build a booming metropolis. First, you need to lay out a 5x5 grid by picking out random tiles. You score points by building up residential buildings, shops, public services, parks, harbors, and factories. Parks gain more points if they are close to residential areas, and factories score more if they are close to shops and harbors. Suggested retial is around $50.
