Board Games with Scott

Boardgame video explorations by Scott Nicholson

InPlay Video Reviews and Google+

I’ve been doing short video reviews for about 6 months and posting them to YouTube. These reviews are filmed during the play of the game, so they are much less polished and usually involve me talking with the players about their impressions of the game.

Most are under 5 minutes.

I’ve made about 30 of them so far, and you can find them all at

If you want to keep up with my YouTube video series, they are all posted in my snicholson channel at

New research blog – Play Matters

I’ve started a new blog focused on my research on games called Play Matters. It’s going to be my main focus where I talk about what I’m going with serious games, games in education, and game design.

Teaching video of The Republic of Rome

As part of a charity auction on Board Game Geek for Tom Vasel, I volunteered to create a video (with a silly opening) on the game of the high bidders’ choosing. The winning game was The Republic of Rome.

You can watch the video here:

or download it through the Internet Archive at http://www.archive.org/details/TeachingVideoAboutTheRepublicOfRome.

This isn’t a return of BGWS, but a special video for the auction. I didn’t have a very good experience putting this together, so I don’t plan on doing this again.

CBS piece on board games

On a recent episode of CBS Sunday Morning, I was part of a segment on modern board games. I think they did a pretty good job of covering the hobby, despite the “look at the weird people” opening segment showing people in RPG and video game costumes.

You can see the video at
