In this episode of the Mindful Games Lab podcast, Clay visits with sisters Alice and Jessica from Fambam Games to explore how board games create connection, spark laughter, and bring people together across generations.

The conversation dives into the origins of hit party games like Not So Neighborly, the role of chaos and emotion in tabletop game design, and how family game nights shaped Fambam Games' mission to create easy to learn games that anyone can enjoy. Alice and Jessica also share behind the scenes stories about designing their upcoming card game Too Much On Your Plate a fast-paced buffet-inspired game about strategy, food, and embracing the chaos of life.

Together, they discuss:

Why emotions matter in game design
