Gaming Links and Resources Series
1. Forums
2. Blogs
3. Indie sites
4. Miscellaneous

I'm beginning a series of posts on resources relevant to the indie game designer. I've accumulated quite a few links of forums, blogs, podcasts, and designer sites, so I thought I'd share. If you have any sites to add, please leave a comment.

These forums are great places to get advice, learn about design, or promote your games.

Game Design Forums

  • Reddit Board Games
  • A cross between a news site and forum, this feed focuses on "modern board games".

  • Reddit Boardgame Design
  • Discuss, brainstorm, post links to your prototypes and finished products.

  • Board Game Design on Board Game Geek
  • Industry sources, intellectual property information, and general discussion including posting new games.

  • Board Game Designers Forum
  • Includes forums, design journals, blogs, and other information.

  • The Game Crafter
  • Design forum. The site includes a chat function where you can often get questions answered immediately.

  • Crafters Circle
  • Message board for a play-test circle.


Go on to part two: blogs.

    Dusty (CrassPip) has been playing geek games for 30 years(!) and making his own for nearly as long. Recently, he's actually gotten games beyond the imagination stage.
