One thing that's often frustrating is wanting to play a game...but then fumbling through the rulebook! In this video, I propose a template on how to write a GOOD board game rulebook that makes it easy for people to learn, to reference back to after they've learned it, and one that will help them understand the game mechanics as accurately as possible! Join me on a thoughtful discussion talking about the ins and outs of rulebooks, bringing up several great points from others across social media! Let's MAKE THIS CHANGE! Let me know what your thoughts are down in the comments below!

*Please note: I bring up tons of examples just so we can be as succinct and as clear as possible on the issues and topics I bring up so I'm in no way shape or form attacking specific games!
