About this episode

Mark Rosewater discusses his 28-year journey to create the trading card game Mood Swings.

In 1998, I came up with the idea of a more accessible trading card game. That game is called Mood Swings and goes on sale starting June 1 on MagicSecretLair.com . This podcast talks about my 28-year journey to get it made.
