Stegmaier is the designer of Scythe, a novel strategy board game released in 2016, one that is beloved by fans and critics alike. He’s set to release the third and final expansion for that game, called Scythe: The Rise of Fenris, at this year’s Gen Con in Indianapolis. After spending a few nights playing it, both with friends and as a solo experience, I’m absolutely blown away. Fenris is an incredible value, and represents board gaming’s new state of the art.
