Matt Chat 218: Guido Henkel on Books, Manuals, and Arkania


Guido returns this week to chat about game manuals, his Jason Dark books, and the first two Realms of Arkania games. I think you’ll particularly his discussion of the manuals, which he thinks (and I agree) contributes more to a gaming experience than most modern publishers and designers seem to think. We also chat about the first two Realms of Arkania games. By the way, you can get them all from GOG using my affiliate link. I highly recommend their packages, which include not just the game (already setup for you), but also the soundtrack, manuals, and even the official cluebooks.

    Im curious what he could say about modern german and polish games like Gothic, or Witcher.

    About kickstarter production values, are poor so in my eyes 20 buck for unfinished game is too much, if would be $10 im in.

    Enjoyed the series with Guido! Excellent interviews (and ale reviews). Tons of great insights; he is one cool dude – obviously an amazingly talented and passionate game developer.
