Interview with RP Deshaies on rules bright TTRPGs

Interview with René-Pier Deshaies on “rules bright” TTRPGs

I had the opportunity to chat with RP Deshaies about his experience with game design, what “rules bright” mechanics are, and how this way of looking at mechanics makes games special, especially for young players. It was great getting to talk with RP, and I hope you enjoy our conversation!

Does a TTRPG need physical mechanics (dice, cards, etc) to be considered a TTRPG?

When creating games that are accessible to wider audiences, like making them more accessible to young kids, or trying out ideas that we haven’t seen released before, we sometimes push on the definition of what a tabletop RPG actually is. This post looks at how TTRPGs and games are defined in a technical sense, how they can be defined from a public viewpoint, and what’s important about our creative endeavors.
