This is the first segment of my interview with game industry luminaries Paul Reiche III and Fred Ford of Toys for Bob. Paul and Fred are responsible for the DOS-era classic, Star Control, and Paul is known for many classics including Archon and Mail Order Monsters. In this segment, the three of us talk about their latest project, Skylanders: Spyro's Adventures, the relationship between toys and games, Dungeons & Dragons, game narratives, and much more.
