Okay, so we are here at GDZ and we are about to do something very different than anything

we've done before. First, I'd like to introduce our guest, Jen Sandercock, who is a game designer

and programmer most recently on the wonderful adventure games, Thimbleweed Park. And Jen, you are

here with an edible game.

Yeah, yeah, I am. Hello.

So what is this game called that we were about to play?

This is called the Petissary Code.

Okay.

And so before we jump in, just give us a little bit of background of what edible games are

and when you started making them and what you're doing with these things.

So I guess I've loved baking for a really long time and I thought and I like designing

weird games and I thought I should just put these things together.

And so I did and so I've kind of been noodling around with some edible games for at least,

I mean two years has been a bit more serious since I've been doing it but longer than that.

And I'm just, they're sort of all tabletop games, but if you don't eat, you can't play.

So I'm noodling with, what does eating give you?

Like, what information can you get out of eating that maybe you can't share or, you know,

there's secret stuff?

So tastes and stuff? Yeah, and just like different people's food preferences, you know, like some of the things don't have points values, but they have, oh, I really like candy corn and hate Reese's peanut buttercup. So I prefer this piece over that piece.

Interesting. So, and you mentioned that, so obviously there's no way for people to play these games right now, but you are starting an edible games cookbook?

Yeah, that's right. Yeah, so I've got 10 games that I've designed so far, and I'm aiming for 12,

and then I'm going to put them all into a cookbook that I'll kickstart. And yeah, each chapter
